It's a long show tonight with 3 dances each.

For dancing prowess, I'd like JB and Lauren to win, but my heart goes out to Chris and Dianne so unless he falls over or makes some other major error, I am hoping for them to win because Chris is just such an inspiration, and it must be exhausting for him to get on top of the routines when he is blind.

Hope to see you later.

Luckily he rang the bell and was walking away by the time I opened the door.

Phew! 😂

Sara1954 Sat 14-Dec-24 18:57:34

I’d be surprised if it’s not Chris though

Amazing showcase from JB and Lauren .Not sure what Craig means by it being heavy in places.

Sparklefizz Sat 14-Dec-24 19:04:56

Wow! Tasha's showdance was fabulous - a real Fred & Ginger number.

Grandmadinosaur Sat 14-Dec-24 19:05:25

Loved both those show dances so far.

Sweetpeasue Sat 14-Dec-24 19:05:32

Oh that was just the type of dancing I love. No doubt that's a showcase. Well done Tasha.

Casdon Sat 14-Dec-24 19:05:34

Stunning show dance from Tasha!

PoppyFlower Sat 14-Dec-24 19:07:19

JB and Lauren did brilliant with their Motown sequence. Love it!!!

Sparklefizz Sat 14-Dec-24 19:08:16

Some terrific dancing tonight! I'm loving it.

Tasha is a great dancer but as a trained dancer she should be, it's just like watching the professional dancers which is exactly what she is, it's not fair to other dancers learning from scratch. I really hope Chris wins, my 2nd choice is JB.

Alijaz’s breathing is so laboured at the end of each dance. Is he not well?

I'm concerned about Alijaz, he's supposed to be fit. Is he unwell?

Sara1954 Sat 14-Dec-24 19:12:44

Not a Tasha fan, but her show dance was absolutely amazing, loved it.

Allira Sat 14-Dec-24 19:13:59

Oh dear, that made me 😢

Calendargirl Sat 14-Dec-24 19:16:32

I thought at the start of the series, Alijaz was just unfit after not dancing professionally for a while, and he looked a bit ‘chunky’.

He looks much trimmer again now, but still doesn’t seem as fit as he should.

I think Aljaz just always breathes loudly, maybe he has sinus problems? He certainly doesn’t dance as though he’s unwell, anyway.

Chris is phenomenal.

Allira Sat 14-Dec-24 19:20:16

Landlines are engaged, engaged

Millie22 Sat 14-Dec-24 19:20:30

Gosh Chris looks exhausted.

Allira Sat 14-Dec-24 19:21:02

Three dances is a big ask.

Damdee Sat 14-Dec-24 19:22:45

In order I'd like to win - JB, Chris, Sarah, Tasha.

Nannee49 Sat 14-Dec-24 19:24:48

For whatever reason, because she seems a perfectly lovely young woman, Tasha doesn't resonate with many posters and probably won't win but for me her dancing cannot be faulted. So graceful, precise, elegant, joyous, simply sublime.

rafichagran Sat 14-Dec-24 19:25:02

Have to say I loved Tasha's dance. I have to say I love Alinaz when he is with Tasha he looks amazing.

Am I alone in thinking this has been one of the best series?

Certainly the best ever final 🌟

Chris has to work 3 times as hard as anyone else. I am full of admiration for him.

I thought it was noticeable when Craig was with Chris and Dianne to give him some tips and of course it wasn't as straightforward as just showing Chris.

No, you're not alone. A brilliant series and final.
