[Beso]

Yes...

[Cherie]

Yes...

:amazed:

[The Slim Reaper]

Disappointed alf didn't go for chas and dave - rabbit.

[Kate!]

I'm nailbitingly awaiting Parmy to spontaneously combust if I've given him the score I think I have.

[Beso]

:amazed:

:joker:

I hope it wasnt the chatlestone:facepalm:

[Beso]

I'm nailbitingly awaiting Parmy to spontaneously combust if I've given him the score I think I have.

I'm fully expecting to exit tonight after my picks.

They deserve 5s.

[Kate!]

I'm fully expecting to exit tonight after my picks.

They deserve 5s.

No I've not been that harsh

[The Slim Reaper]

Phew, I think I'm right about Parms song then

[Beso]

Phew, I think I'm right about Parms song then

Its alfs you need to worry about..

[Beso]

No I've not been that harsh



H9ws the cough?

[Liam-]

I expect one of my choices to maybe have been hit or miss, I personally think it fit perfectly, so if I get low marks for it, you’re wrong

[Vanessa]

I think I've been fairly generous tonight.

[Kate!]

H9ws the cough?

Lingering. Can't quite get rid of it yet. But I'm a hell of a lot better than I was.

[Cherie]

Jacob :oh:

[Cherie]

I think I've been fairly generous tonight.

How many 10s

[Niamh.]

Do you know mine Slim?

[Vanessa]

How many 10s

I don't remember :joker:

[Kate!]

Jacob :oh:

:joker:

Come on Sir Jake.

[Kate!]

I think I've been fairly generous tonight.

Jake said be a bit tougher and thus my scores range from 7 to 10. I listened to every song twice and then scored.

[The Slim Reaper]

Do you know mine Slim?

Not really. Everyone has gone away from the usual sh1tty pop trash so it's actually way more difficult to try and reason who might have sent which song.

[The Slim Reaper]

How many 10s

4 across both rounds.

[Vanessa]

I've thought all of them were good. But a few were really outstanding.

[Niamh.]

Not really. Everyone has gone away from the usual sh1tty pop trash so it's actually way more difficult to try and reason who might have sent which song.What was your reasoning for thinking you knew Parms? [emoji848]

[Kate!]

Think I'm sure on Niamh and Cheries songs in the Natural World round

[Niamh.]

Think I'm sure on Niamh and Cheries songs in the Natural World roundInteresting...

[Vanessa]

I have an idea, but I'm not sure. We shall see....

[The Slim Reaper]

What was your reasoning for thinking you knew Parms? [emoji848]

The only way I can answer that, is by saying it seems like a parm track. I'll point it out when we get to it and i think you'll agree. Even if it turns out I'm wrong.

[Niamh.]

The only way I can answer that, is by saying it seems like a parm track. I'll point it out when we get to it and i think you'll agree. Even if it turns out I'm wrong.I don't know why but I feel like it might be my song

[The Slim Reaper]

I don't know why but I feel like it might be my song

[Kate!]

Interesting...

I'll say if I'm right or not when we get the show.

[Niamh.]

https://c.tenor.com/eeiUo7PP3E0AAAAM/special-hungry.gifI'm saying nothing [emoji14]

[Kate!]

https://c.tenor.com/eeiUo7PP3E0AAAAM/special-hungry.gif

Omg that is cuteness itself.

[Vanessa]

I don't mind waiting until tomorrow if Jake is busy. There's no rush.

[The Slim Reaper]

I'm saying nothing [emoji14]

I looked at that, but said no.

[Kate!]

Woo hoo. Jakes online but maybe it's too late now tonight?

[Strictly Jake]

So sorry we had an unexpected visitor, so rude of them haha. Do we want a show now or tomorrow morning?

[Beso]

It's never too late.

[Beso]

Now please.

[Vanessa]

Since we're all here, we might as well :laugh:

[Strictly Jake]

Okay doke. Cherie you will have to check in on the ad breaks

[Kate!]

Oh hurray. Thank you Jake :love:

[The Slim Reaper]

Parmy putting the Horlicks on hold to get sent to an elimination? Have to admire his team spirit.

[AnnieK]

Fully expecting to leave today, think one of my songs was a major risk and the other was too safe

[Kate!]

Good luck everyone

[Vanessa]

I've got my coffee to keep me awake.

[Strictly Jake]

Welcome to the Quarter Final. Our top 6 will have to do their very best to avoid the DOUBLE elimination and make it to the Semi Final. The two themes they will be taking on this time are the Natural World and Dead Artists

[The Slim Reaper]

A fiver says its not. :hee:

You like giving away fivers?

[Kate!]

I originally chose George Michael and Elton John "Don't let the Sun go down on me" but I changed it.

Kate: I liked it but less than the others so far. 7

Score: 23/30

[Beso]

Slim: Why do you folks keep using inferior covers. Should have been an 8. 6


Because the originals have been used on strictly already.

[Strictly Jake]

Last of the Natural World dances is Niamh and Pasha with a Tango to White Rabbit
WANNqr-vcx0

Vanessa: Rather unusual, but I like it. 9.

[Vanessa]

I loved it. Marilyn :love:

[The Slim Reaper]

Slim: Why do you folks keep using inferior covers. Should have been an 8. 6


Because the originals have been used on strictly already.

Are you not allowed to use tracks used on the show then? I didn't know that, but that is just a really sh1tty version. The music is way too loud compared to the voice and it's not really a pleasant listen.

I don't watch strictly, but i presume they don't have those acting bits throughout the routines though, as the slow bit in this is for every verse, and it was a quickstep.

[Strictly Jake]

I'll open the poll tomorrow though as need to go to bed got a bad head

Time for our "why we should be saved" speeches.

[Niamh.]

I'm not actually a huge fan of of the track. Think it's been understandably way overplayed. [emoji23]I hate the Waltz as well, it's so boring, I knew that song would get a higher score than my Tango though eventhough imo my first choice was way better

[Cherie]

Thanks Judges

[Vanessa]

Well done everyone. God, it's still too hot tonight :bawling:

[Kate!]

I'm not falling for that scam.:nono:..might be old but I'm not daft.

Leaderboard for Dance Two

Alf and Dianne 29
Niamh and Pasha 28
Annie and Graziano 28
Liam and Nadiya 28
Cherie and Kai 27
Parmnion and Katya 24Just remember the final round leaderboard when you go to the polls today.

[Strictly Jake]

This week's decision is the toughest yet

By the way as everyone has had a turn at choosing the themes I need to tell you what will happen in the semi final

I will send you a list of the dances you have already performed. You can choose to do two of these dances again only this time you don't have a theme to stick by. So for example if you were given a waltz one of the shows but you weren't entirely happy with it because of the theme this time with no theme the choice of song is entirely up to you

[Strictly Jake]

But...

You will get to perform three dances in the semi final

So two will have been dances you have done before with no theme, what dances and songs you pick is up to you

But you will also be given a new dance. There will be a theme to this, it has to reflect how the show makes you feel and how getting to the final would make you feel

[Cherie]

oh dear God :laugh:

[Vanessa]

Sounds good. Can't wait!

[Strictly Jake]

Also there will be brand new round if you make it to the final

All three finalists will choose two other contestants that have been on this series to do a performance with.

In your teams you will choose what song you wish to do this to,

Both of the contestants the finalist chose will submit a song privately to the finalist and the finalist will decide what song as a team they will be performing to

[Strictly Jake]

It does mean two contestants that have been in this series won't be chosen, which is hilariously awkward

[Beso]

Guest judges to see who gets to the final?

[Nicky91]

i have a important announcement to make


no need to ban me anymore from this game, this was my very last series


Nicky G, producer of NTV speaks of corruption within strictly tibb, and with better theme and dance choices, i am certain i would've been a easy finalist

my channel NTV, is also done with corrupt shows such as Eurovision, The Voice

we however do respect our bestie Jake with all our hearts, so therefore we made own decide to withdraw for good from further editions of strictly tibb rather than i ending up getting banned by our friend from this game

.

[Strictly Jake]

Ok bye

[Strictly Jake]

Guest judges to see who gets to the final?

No just the three we have had throughout

[Alf]

i have a important announcement to make


no need to ban me anymore from this game, this was my very last series


.Is NTV planning on a rival show?

[Strictly Jake]

Just makes me laugh that yes Nicky has tried to word it in a different way, even calls me his bestie, that stopped a long time ago, in different words he has yet again called this fixed and that he quits despite being out of the show anyway

[Nicky91]

Is NTV planning on a rival show?

playing games with me, myself and only myself :laugh: like what i always have done

Just makes me laugh that yes Nicky has tried to word it in a different way, even calls me his bestie, that stopped a long time ago, in different words he has yet again called this fixed and that he quits despite being out of the show anyway

yes i still consider you a good friend

oh i'll likely still vote in the poll for the showdances, since that is at random, what i like, selecting winners randomly

[Beso]

Not really. Everyone has gone away from the usual sh1tty pop trash so it's actually way more difficult to try and reason who might have sent which song.

You could argue the only song close to being ****ty pop trash, was actually the only song that scored maximum points.:pat:

[Nicky91]

well ok sorry for acting like one big mess


but i'm getting more and more depressed if i don't win anything else, and yes true having fun is also important, but i admit i am extremely competitive till the point where it gets unhealthy


and not winning, getting eliminated, only makes me more stressed and makes me overthink that others think of me as some loser, that is why i want to win so badly all the time

it makes me cry

[Cherie]

You could argue the only song close to being ****ty pop trash, was actually the only song that scored maximum points.:pat:

Oi bloody cheek

[Beso]

Oi bloody cheek

Nothing wrong with ****ty pop, imo.

[ThomasC]

well ok sorry for acting like one big mess


but i'm getting more and more depressed if i don't win anything else, and yes true having fun is also important, but i admit i am extremely competitive till the point where it gets unhealthy


and not winning, getting eliminated, only makes me more stressed and makes me overthink that others think of me as some loser, that is why i want to win so badly all the time

it makes me cry

Probably best for your own health then that you don't compete and could be a judge instead

[ThomasC]

I love pop and new music.

Not a fan of a lot of the old music. There's some classics, don't get me wrong

[Niamh.]

I love pop and new music.

Not a fan of a lot of the old music. There's some classics, don't get me wrong

What do you consider "old" music?

[The Slim Reaper]

You could argue the only song close to being ****ty pop trash, was actually the only song that scored maximum points.:pat:

Have you been awake all night stewing over this? :laugh:

[Beso]

Have you been awake all night stewing over this? :laugh:

No, I did awaken bolt upright at 5.30 though...Managed to get back to sleep.

I dont even know why I was still in this round after quitting last round. So made it easy on the other contestants with my quick, and poor selections.

[Strictly Jake]

I don't remember you quitting?

[Strictly Jake]

well ok sorry for acting like one big mess


but i'm getting more and more depressed if i don't win anything else, and yes true having fun is also important, but i admit i am extremely competitive till the point where it gets unhealthy

it makes me cry

I'd say what is the biggest and most horrible mess is you saying your a Putin superfan. Given the disgraceful things he has done. I'm helping out a Ukrainian family that have moved local to me, they have very young kids and we have been able to help them out with baby furniture and things, they were torn from their home and have to start from scratch. But no you want to be a superfan of such a hideous man. That is why I won't be a friend of yours

but a champions all stars edition is something what i am excited to follow as well, and to vote in those dance off/save me polls

[Strictly Jake]

Maybe others that have reached the final in their series yeah

sad you withdrew Annie but be proud for being a quarter finalist of series 9 :clap1:

[Strictly Jake]

I'll send out the dances now

[Niamh.]

Is there a theme this round Jake?

[Strictly Jake]

But...

You will get to perform three dances in the semi final

So two will have been dances you have done before with no theme, what dances and songs you pick is up to you

But you will also be given a new dance. There will be a theme to this, it has to reflect how the show makes you feel and how getting to the final would make you feel

Perfect

What do you consider "old" music?

Like just really old. I love some of the old classics like from the 80s and 90s but there's overdone and boring songs which are suppose to be classics but I just don't feel it

Im putting my name forward as judge next series

Yes and me. I will be head top judge

Oh my goodness Parm I'm so sorry. We are really really really sad to see Parmnion and Katya leaving!!

:joker:

[Alf]

I'm going out so I'll do mine tomorrow, probably.

I don't feel part of this now but I'm playing to represent Annie and not spoil Jakes game and I will try my best to win.

[Cherie]

I will do mine in the morning as well

[Beso]

I was also hoping to squeeze this in, but the dances didnt hit right for me to be able to.

[Alf]

I was also hoping to squeeze this in, but the dances didnt hit right for me to be able to.

B9FzVhw8_bYKeep them to yourself because I think Jake said that the finalists can call back a former contestant for the final and if I make it I may make a bid for your services.

[Alf]

I don't want to take part in this if people think I don't deserve to be here, and to tell you the truth I don't feel I deserve to be here after the result of the voting poll. It's really put a downer on this for me. I would rather Annie was in play and I was out.

[Beso]

Jake...

Tally up the scores for all episodes so far please...

[Alf]

I'm really sorry but I can't continue in this if I've been voted out. I'm sorry to Jake because I don't want to to let him down, but I can't continue once I'm voted out. It just feels wrong to me.

[Vanessa]

I'm really sorry but I can't continue in this if I've been voted out. I'm sorry to Jake because I don't want to to let him down, but I can't continue once I'm voted out. It just feels wrong to me.

Of course you deserve to be here :love:

[Beso]

I'm really sorry but I can't continue in this if I've been voted out. I'm sorry to Jake because I don't want to to let him down, but I can't continue once I'm voted out. It just feels wrong to me.

You've probably scored most points if the scores are all combined together...or cherie.

You certainly deserve to be in the final.4 imo...

[Cherie]

Of course you deserve it, shut up and submit your songs

[Alf]

You've probably scored most points if the scores are all combined together...or cherie.

You certainly deserve to be in the final.4 imo...I'm not feeling I deserve it now after loosing fairly and squarely in the poll. I believe in fair play and this is going against everything I believe in. I can't do it.

[Alf]

If Annie doesn't want to take part I am happy for Parm to have my spot, but I just can't do it.

[Alf]

Of course you deserve it, shut up and submit your songsI appreciate your frankness but my own pride can't continue once defeated I'm either a winner or loser and on this occasion I lost.

[Kate!]

If Annie doesn't want to take part I am happy for Parm to have my spot, but I just can't do it.

Alf the judges voted to keep you?

[Strictly Jake]

This all ended a bit messy

I think the best course of action here is to go ahead with the final

Cherie and Kai, Liam and Nadiya, Niamh and Pasha. Your in the final.

So this is how that will work

We want a show dance song from you

A past dance you want to do again but with a new song

And your favourite performance of the series. I wanted this to finish this weekend anyway so let's bring the final forward

[Strictly Jake]

So Cherie, Liam, Niamh. One of you will win and follow in Tony Montana's dancing shoes of winning a second glitterball trophy!

[Beso]

So when am I getting my dance?

[Cherie]

I think that is sensible Jake, I will sort out the dances now

[Strictly Jake]

So when am I getting my dance?

In series 10 parm

[ThomasC]

I appreciate your frankness but my own pride can't continue once defeated I'm either a winner or loser and on this occasion I lost.

Fair play to you.

Yeah I think it was a bit of a cop out on Annie's part

[Beso]

Absolutely ridiculous..


Jake gave up to save liam.

Annie gave up and alf got her place....now alfs given up but I am not allowed to fill the gap.


Just bring me back and let the game play out as it would have, with a semi final then a final.

I've put enough effort in to the game.

No you were booted out.

Stop trying to slither back in.

[Strictly Jake]

Sorry Parm but I did planning having the final this weekend as I'm really busy the next few weeks and going to take a break from here

I appreciate your enthusiasm Parmnion but we need to have the final

[Cherie]

In series 10 parm

:joker:

[Lewismacfarlane]

Who's the final 3 then

[Beso]

No you were booted out.

Stop trying to slither back in.

It wasnt a vote to evict, so I dont see it as being booted out.:shrug:

Alf was also booted out, as you put it, but the game was changed to allow him back in...what's the difference now we are 12 hours later.:shrug:

[Vanessa]

So only three people in the final?

[Beso]

Sorry Parm but I did planning having the final this weekend as I'm really busy the next few weeks and going to take a break from here

I appreciate your enthusiasm Parmnion but we need to have the final

12 hours ago you made space for alf, so I'm not buying that.:nono:

[Strictly Jake]

Who's the final 3 then

Cherie. Liam. Niamh.

[Cherie]

Best of luck Neem and Liam, let the best dance win :dance:

Alf, Annie and Parm you are welcome to judge the final if you wish alongside the other three judges. Let me know

[Cherie]

Alf, Annie and Parm you are welcome to judge the final if you wish alongside the other three judges. Let me know

woah, judge the final will the scores to added to the showdance poll? if so I might need to revisit one of my songs, going out now but will be back on later and want to change one of my songs if that is the case

[Beso]

[Niamh.]

Thanks Cherie

Niamh and Liam any chance I can have your songs today?

[Strictly Jake]

No the showdance result depends on votes, judges scores won't affect it

[Niamh.]

Just a quick question Jake, the past dance with a new song doesn't need to fit the theme it did when we used it before does it?

[Cherie]

Just a quick question Jake, the past dance with a new song doesn't need to fit the theme it did when we used it before does it?

No there is no theme

[Niamh.]

No there is no theme

Thanks Cherie. I've sent mine anyway thinking that was probably the case

[Strictly Jake]

I'll send the choices to the judges now including Parm Alf and Annie, I want a show tomorrow morning so let me know all you judges if this will be possible for you

[Beso]

Yes.

[Nicky91]

Yes
