[Marcus.]

Ashley and Lauren had to dance off. The judges saved Ashley. Lauren was eliminated.

[Lewismacfarlane]

Im dissapointed she should still be in

[Morgan.]

Phew

[RileyH]

Imagine if she made the final lmao

Bye queen :(

[Liam-]

:dance::cheer2:

[joeysteele]

I'm not surprised this was a tricky one especially the judges marking her so low.

Saving Ashley after the 3rd week in a row in the dance off is a little pathetic at best.

One thing's sure Ashley is not going to win on the solely public vote in the final.

I'm glad Joe is still there, he solely gets my votes now.

[LukeB]

She was crap :shrug:

[hijaxers]

No sadly both dances were not on a parr with the others , it really is her time to go. I think she will be very proud of coming this far and deservedly so.

Well she was better than Lauren so how on earth is it pathetic? :skull:

Only by the skin of his teeth and being Shirleys fave , tonight was not a good night for him , i would have had him in the dance off.

[joeysteele]

Because it's clear Ashley is not getting the public vote.

It's as pathetic as when they were saving Graeme week after week too.

I think Ashley is good and Pasha is a brilliant dancer.
However 3 times in a row in the bottom 2, is not good at all especially now it's only the public vote who decides the winner.

[Matthew.]

watched a bit of it tonight, wanted her to stay just for the shock of it all

Omfg, Joe is in the final! Woooooooo :dance::cheer2:

[Mitchell]

It’s only fair really

[GoldHeart]

That's 3 times in the b2 now , Ashley definitely ISN'T winning . But i already said i think Joe is going to win .

[Nicky91]

Lauren wuz robbed :fist: :fist: :fist: :fist: :fist:


Joe should've left he was by far the worst on the night :yuk:

[Nicky91]

She was crap :shrug:

Well she was better than Lauren so how on earth is it pathetic? :skull:

Joe should've left against Ashley in the dance off, pathetic joke that he is in the final with those 2 dreadful dull dances he did

yuk @ the taste of the GBP

:rolleyes:


i will only watch the eliminated celebs group dance now, not interested in the final at all now :inamood:

he shouldn't get any votes, Stacey, Ashley and Faye all by far outclass him with dance quality

if Joe wins strictly has been trolled to death :(

[Nicky91]

i am disgusted by this result i hope Joe falls on his face next week with the showdance :devil: karma is a bitch

[chuff me dizzy]

Lauren was DIRE and should have gone weeks ago

[Nicky91]

Lauren was DIRE and should have gone weeks ago

not as dire as that trash joke act Joe :fist:


if people can call him a good dancer :umm2: and his arrogance too


Dianne though is a good dancer, i would love to see her next year with hunky Jason Momoa :drool: :drool:

[Nicky91]

Joe is nothing more than a troll


i never liked the whole sugg family, bit too stuck up for my liking

I won't let anything ruin my happiness. I'm so happy Team Joanne are in the final! I hope they dance that amazing charleston again. Or the quickstep. Paso would also be nice.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Ashley got 40 and is in the dance off?

#brexitBritain

[Mitchell]

[Nicky91]

i feel so sad for AJ 3rd semi final exit for him, i am now making it my mission for next year to be wanting a strictly final with AJ in it, he deserves to now after 3 times stranding in semi finals

his tango choreo was superb, using tango techniques which are never really used according to Shirley :love: :love:

Lauren tbh has her limitations but still coming this far to semi final makes her winner for me, and all of us teamlaj fans out there and most importantly for herself and aj too :D

[Vanessa]

I can't wait to see Craig reaction tonight. His precious Ashley in the dance off for the third time. Lol she ain't winning this,! :joker:

[Daniel-X]

I can't wait to see Craig reaction tonight. His precious Ashley in the dance off for the third time. Lol she ain't winning this,! :joker:

In no way did she deserve to be in the dance off, she was fabulous last night (as she always is). It’s not ‘his precious Ashley’ at all, Craig is harsh (but fair) with everyone. Baring in mind he was the one who kept her from scoring a 40, three weeks in a row.

[Amy Jade]

I can't wait to see Craig reaction tonight. His precious Ashley in the dance off for the third time. Lol she ain't winning this,! :joker:

At least she can hold her head up high and say she fought her way to whatever position she ends up on rather than relying on a pre existing fan base like your darling Joe.

He's been terrible this last two weeks and over scored especially by Shirley and if he won he would be the worst dancer to ever win. What an accolaid.

In the final its all about the fanbases. Who gets more votes wins. Simple :spin2:

Not always. Sometimes the better dancer prevails as some manage to look past who makes their fanny flutter and vote for the best dancer.

[GoldHeart]

I think its between Joe & Stacy but I think Joe will win as he's got a big fan base , I think Joe looks awkward in some of his routines . and he's made a few mistakes in his steps but people love a cliché "journey" :rolleyes: but I would say he's officially the weakest dancer still in :idc:

[Crimson Dynamo]

if Jo wins it will be the death of SCD

It will be relegated to a pantomime like the carcass that is X Factor has become

a cheap popularity contest betwixt little girls with their first phone contract

a mess

[Vanessa]

The best dancer never wins. Its always someone who connects with the public. That could be either Joe or Stacey.

I don't care, he's in the final. Im just going to enjoy it and vote. It's up to the public who wins. :hee:

Oh he and the other judges will be more than compensated with Lauren in the dance off too.

They've been waiting for week after week to get Lauren in the dance off and vote her out, no matter who she was up against.

Even the weeks they've upped her marks, they made sure the others got far more.

Yes, they were so obvious last night. Joe was also underscored.
Thank god the judges scores don't count in the final. Its all about the votes.

[Beastie]

Ashley and Faye are technically the better dancers. But I'm more drawn to Stacey's and Kevin's partnership. They are the best all round couple and they connect with the audience more. That's why they need to win!

I like Bruno but he's been patronising with Lauren.

[Beastie]

I like Stacey. I'd be happy with her winning.

Yay. I just think Kevin deserves a win too.

[Vanessa]

Yay. I just think Kevin deserves a win too.

Kevin is great. I met him a few years ago. Such a lovely man :love:

[Vanessa]

Lol Giovanni almost on top of Joe. Love that finalists group hug :joker:

[Beastie]

Awe I'm jealous. You meet him in Wales?

[Vanessa]

It was during the Strictly tour. He stopped to take pictures and chatted to everyone.

Yes he was.

As you say the final is only the public votes.
Great.

All my votes will be going to Joe, I'd love him to win this now.

[Vanessa]

Joe or Stacey for me. Love them both, especially Joe.

DS will implode! Let's make it happen :joker:

[Vanessa]

Okay. :rolleyes:

Not always.

[Amy Jade]

Not always.

Exactly what I said when you said never :laugh:

[Vanessa]

I think the public prefers a non dancer to win

[Mystic Mock]

Tbh Joe should've been in the bottom two with Lauren as his dancing ability is limited imo.

Plus he actually makes Stacey's overmarked scoring look totally legit from the judges in comparison to his own overmarked scores, in particular his Street Commercial should've been scored below a 20 combined imo.

However good luck to all of them (including Joe) as none of them come across as malicious people imo.

and then Lauren would have had a chance at making it to the final, but she was doomed against that 40 dance from Ashley they knew it before they even danced their tango :laugh:

but still she has come far, i am proud of having supported her she is the only one of aj's celeb partners so far who made semi finals without appearing in dance off before, good luck to aj next year :love:

[joeysteele]

Nicky, over the series, no matter when or who Lauren was in a dance off with.
As soon as she was, even if the other pair tripped up, these judges would have voted her out.
Particularly Darcey and Craig.

They hoped for a Joe vs Lauren bottom 2 on Saturday, I'm sure of that.
No way would they have saved Lauren however.

The show is also about who can win, well on the public vote, despite massive scores from the judges.
Ashley has been for 3 consecutive weeks in the dance off.
It's pretty clear the public don't want her to win already.

I think Strictly needs to look st it's results show in the future.
Actually do it on a Sunday.

Make the dance off, similar to X Factor, where the couples in the dance off, do a dance of their choice, not one again which has put them in the dance off.

However new Judges needed too.
These look and sound stale and are far too biased, especially Bussell.

I've said for ages to people, the moment Lauren and A J are in a dance off, they'll be out no matter who they are up against or even how bad the other pair may perform.

Lauren had no chance in the slightest with these judges, not a hope.
Others made mistakes they said, yet still give 8 and 9s to them.

Lauren makes mistakes and gets hammered with fives and sixes.

Just about sums the poor quality of judges on the show.
For me the judges ruin it.
Their theatrical nonsense and veiled sarcastic commenting too now really tedious to have to watch.

Lauren never had dance experience, she has been what the show is all about, it being a light hearted entertainment show, which she knows cause she has watched strictly since she was a little child

she has been amazing without dance/stage/acting experience while those who are actors/actresses/singers/stage performers all have a bit of that experience which is helpful for performing on the dancefloor, in a weird way Joe also has experience with the camera due to his vlogging on YouTube


judges had expectations of Lauren what a joke :laugh3: :laugh3: they had the wrong idea of her to begin with, her salsa experience which was discussed wasn't experience at all, it was just recreational salsa, nothing similar to any of the strictly latin dances, so it wasn't helpful at all


every bit of performing she showed in the Paso, in the viennese waltz, waltz, american smooth she has learned in training with AJ and other choreographers Lukas McFarlane who helped them with the couples choice contemporary which is one of her personal fave dances she did, a dedication to her family :love:


who i want to win now is Stacey, best one out of the novices compared to Joe, and Kevin has come 2nd so many times he deserves to lift the glitterball now

[GoldHeart]

I like Stacey. I'd be happy with her winning.

Stacy is a better dancer than Joe , would be nice if she wins but I'm not that bothered as I'm only partly invested in Strictly :joker: .

Ashley got backlash as she was already an amazing dancer and she's been in the dance off 3 times so has no chance of winning , and Faye was consistently good so people won't necessarily vote her as much.

Joe & Stacy have had the biggest journey so they'll gain more support.

Joe and a journey :rolleyes: what journey

he was crap and he is still crap, i rolled my eyes over and over when he was announced as the first finalist


why do people vote for him, clearly not for his bad dance technique :inamood:

Its the kids vote and thirsty facebook mums who want to take him home and feed him soup. Its clearly not for his dancing,w hich is average at best

the lust in Shirley's eyes is cringe

tbh, his dancing got worse on Sat.

That maybe so, but i still preferr Joe. He's pretty good as a dancer. But the reason he's so popular is because he's very likable.
For that reason, he's always going to get my votes.

i love how graceful Lauren was in her exit speech :flutter:


after being announced in the dance off, immediately went over to faye and Giovanni to hug them and congratulate them for being finalists :hee:

[Vanessa]

As long as either Joe or Stacey wins, then i will be very happy indeed.
I like both, but personality wise and dancing i prefer Joe.
