She is the best dancer especially without any experience at all
She is the most likeable
She is a BBC name who they will push
She is down to earth
She would be the best winner in years

[Vanessa]

This year I'm supporting the non dancers. Stacey, Joe and Kate are all doing well.

[GoldHeart]

I don't think she'll win but i don't mind if she won . She seems to be a natural with plenty of personality thrown in .

[Nicky91]

yes Stacey has won this, that was a perfect foxtrot last night and foxtrots are usually the most difficult ballroom dance

[AnnieK]

She's totally inoffensive and likeable and wotks hard on her dances. Not sure if she will win but she'll go far.

[RileyH]

Is her name Vick Hope tho? Didn't think so

Vick was too many out of hold, which was a shame, cause in hold she looked really great, i gave a 6 because of that problem i had with her performance, if she was more in hold i would've given a 8

Nope? Her name is Stacey Dooley aka the joint top female from this series with Kate Silverton

[LeatherTrumpet]

she is hardly Faye who is streets ahead in terms of grace and sex appeal

[susie q]

So far Stacey & Kevin are my favourites, its great when the non dancers do well, and she always looks as if she is enjoying herslf.

[Twosugars]

I don't mind who wins tbh. I'd be pleased for Kev if it's them two.

[Jase.]

I can't call it at the minute. It's very open imo

[Livia]

I adore Stacey, she's a blood legend and a Goddess, and I would be SO happy if she won. But then, I really like them all right now, my biggest favourites being Stacey and Fay.

[Denver]

Call me Mystic Meg

[Zizu]

She certainly pulled out all the stops to win this
I see why it's called Strip Cum Dancing now ..

This is the first Strictly winner that's wound me up tbh as it all felt like one big massive coronation towards Kevin who the show is clearly in love with, and as he hadn't had a winner until Stacey the judges deliberately overmarked her by quite a lot to make the general public think that she is a better dancer than she was actually delivering imo (especially the American Smooth) and to make people not pay attention to Stacey's overmarking on the leaderboard, the show decides to have Joe be even more overmarked than Stacey so that we'd all be annoyed with his favouritism and overlook Stacey's.

I also resent watching live shows where I feel like the public were on lock no matter what any of them did, Stacey imo was delivering the weakest performances in the final (her only decent one being the Paso) yet she still won, so what was the point of the other three contestants even showing up? It makes a mockery of the whole process.

And btw I am not some bitter fan of one of the other finalists, my favourite had already got eliminated by the Media's sabotage efforts that were only beaten by what the Media did to Danny, but my point is that I was a neutral in that final and I do feel like I wasted my time watching that final when the weakest performer on the night won.

And my last thing that I wanted to add was the show almost disregarded Stacey as the winner and just went on and on about Kevin, I mean seriously shouldn't both of them be getting credit for winning?

called it weeks ago

yawn

And people were fumed at the thought of Joe winning purely because of his fan base, Stacey comes out, gives one of the weakest show dances there’s ever been, is bottom of the leaderboard and still wins, it was very underwhelming, even though she was one of the ones I wanted to win.

[chuff me dizzy]

I wanted Stacey from the start ( After Lee left) but IMO Faye was by far the best last night

Faye robbed

Faye and Ashley were never going to win since suddenly the public don’t like ‘experience dancers’ so it was always going to be out of Stacey and Joe and Stacey is by far the better dancer out of the the two. Stacey was undermarked during the final, her foxtrot and paso doble were fantastic and deserved a 40 and her showdance was great and it didn’t deserve a 36 it deserves at least at 38/39. She was the rightful winner out of the 2 and deserved it. Stacey had the biggest progression as well.

Yep - she was in my top 2 but I was disappointed. That showdance was horrific, there was way too much going on, a couple of trips and stumbles, and a fair amount of purposeless running from area to area.

I'm still thrilled she won - but Joe, Faye and Ashley all showed massive improvement and had well put together showdances.
