Strictly 2024

Sometimes the best dancers can suffer because it is assumed that they are safe, and subsequently don’t get the votes from the true dance fans.
Chris and Pete obviously have huge voting fanbases for various reasons, and are still in the running as a consequence 🕺
Tonight could be very interesting!

I predict JB to win this year 🤷🏼‍♀️

I wonder if Sarah might be in the dance off, judging by some of the comments on here?

I know she was nearly top of the board, but doesn’t always follow with the public vote.

It would actually resolve things a bit if one of the stronger couples are in the dance off with one of the weaker.

I like everyone who is left but I try hard not to let my personal preferences to them as people get in the way - I still look for the better dancer.

Sarah has been my firm favourite right from the first week, but I was disappointed last night, too many amazing lifts, but not enough Charleston
I think Pete will stay, I think the public will keep him in, and I predict Montell and Chris in the dance off.
JB blew me away, so beautiful.

I think it will be Chris versus Montell again in the dance-off.
I think Pete should do the decent thing and offer himself.

Well, I think Montell will be in the dance off again, as she doesn’t seem very popular.

If Pete is in, the judges will vote him off for sure.

I felt last night they were all really kind to him, (he looked very humbled, different to the cocky bloke at the start of the series), but it seemed they were all saying, “You’ve done really well, but now….”

And I’m sure he agreed.

The way it's going, we could see the two weakest dancers in the final.

I think Chris has been phenomenal but he's not as strong as the others. He's clearly a nice guy who has come to terms with an incredibly challenging and life changing disability and for that reason I don't think he'd want to win on the sympathy vote.

I was reading this morning that Chris has said that he doesn't want to get the sympathy vote.

I'm not keen on all the lifts in Sarah's numbers now. They seem to be taking over from the dance content on two feet.

I agree. Usually I think Sarah and Vito's dances are fantastic but last night's Charleston was unrecognisable as a Charleston. The lifts were amazing but there were far too many.

Surely Pete will go tonight ! Somehow I doubt he will.

I really like Sarah and Vito and was looking forward to their Charleston last night. But I felt there were too many of those amazing lifts and not enough Charleston steps. I felt each time she was getting into Charleston steps she was lifted again and catapulted into the air.

Not keen on Sarah, but am sure she’ll be in the final.

I would like to see JB, Sarah, and Chris in the final. Although it is a popularity contest, not a dance contest.

Great show. Chris has found his mojo again this week. He was amazing. I loved JB and Lauren’s dance. I hope Pete will be in the dance off but I’m concerned he might receive enough votes from his huge social media following to escape it. Another very good dancer might then be sent home instead of Pete. I hope not 🤞

Eeekk! escaped

JB and Lauren for me. Lovely pairing.

Three votes for JB and Lauren, best of the night by far

Pete will be in the bottom two, surely.

The music is so important, and West Side Story is my favourite ever musical.

Sorry! Shouldn't mention other threads.
