if Hamza or Helen win, i am done with british strictly, and i solely will watch german lets dance, mainly because there the better dancers can win anyway

Bill was great I agree, but tbf so were Hrvy & Maisie, yet Maisie in particular was getting less votes than far weaker dancers like JJ & Ranvir.

And Bill in fairness did have the theme of being the older winner.

Kelvin was the "wildcard" winner.

Rose won because she was deaf.

And Hamza will win because of BLM being really in trend at the moment for TV to promote. And no TV Shows don't really care about BLM in terms of being morally righteous.

Unfortunately newer Strictly can't just let the contestant that the public just naturally likes win, nor is the dancing even remotely a factor for large swaths of the public.

But either way it's the public vote in the final that it's all based on , the public still decides who wins. The judges & producers don't have a say in it , or am I missing something?? .

I still think it's between Will & Helen . They clearly have a big fan base.

[GoldHeart]

I think Molly or Fleur deserve to win ,but we all know that's NOT HAPPENING.

[Liam-]

Correct because the public can see that they’ve been vastly overscored by the judges every week

Helen for the win....that dance was off the scale

Oh the Show doesn't rig the votes, because that would be illegal.

The Producers/Judges can lead the public to feel a certain way about contestants through VT's, choreography, Dance selection & song choices, plus judges comments.

And tbf we're all probably deceived to some extent depending on our own bias towards certain things.

Tbf Molly mainly scores a 35 most weeks.

What are you even talking about , Fleur & Molly have been in the dance off far too many times. Plus Shirley lemon face is biased towards the men .

Fleur & Molly have never been over scored... it's been the other way around ,you must be thinking of other contestants.

Apparently that's being "over scored " ridiculous.

Anyway whatever happens I'm glad Fleur & Molly made it to the semi final .

It's especially harsh when Hamza scores a 37 for farting out dances some weeks.

And Helen scored a 39 for a good dance imo, but nothing exceptional.

But maybe I'm being really harsh myself.

Yes and for most of her dances that’s over marked

Nah, definitely thinking of the right two, Fleur’s couples choice getting a 40 was ludicrous

Absolutely, likeable, talented and regularly overlooked by the judges

Fair enough on that.

But considering in this series we've seen James score a 32 & Ellie T joint topped the leaderboard one night, I do personally think it's harsh that Molly scoring a 35 is the score that you're zoning in on as odd.

And personally I feel like Fleur is the only dancer this series that has warranted getting a 40, and not just for the Couple's Choice but also the AT & Samba dances.

I'd be happy with her winning. Rather her than Hamza.

Completely agree

Helen and overlooked by the judges


UMM LOL, she is the judges pet, with a abbey clancy 2.0 ''journey'' so predictable how production made a ''winners vt'' out of her couples choice



Helen is little miss perfect who can do nothing wrong with the judges

[Nicky91]

pretty sure Helen will get two easy dances, and fake praise with overscorings again, another top of the leaderboard, wouldn't be surprised if a double 40


Helen does not have to work hard in training, Gorka has a easy ride to the glitterball this year not if it was up to me

I agree that Helen was overscored slightly in her last performance, but in fairness was still a good performance, especially compared to her usual standard.

I personally feel like Hamza is the most overscored, he can score a 38 for average performances.

her usual standard is with normal dances


this was just with a gimmicky nonsense non-dance



i already feel sad we have to endure 5 more performances from Helen and me being robbed of potentially seeing Kym's magical american smooth again


**** off with vanilla contestants like Helen Skelton, Kara Tointon, Abbey Clancy

[Nicky91]

why doesn't Helen dance to Cher's Believe

i mean LMAO quite fitting if you ask me, with her whole ''cheating husband'' sob story

[Nicky91]

a reminder due to the football there'll be no strictly tonight


so the liveshow will be tomorrow, and the results show will be on Monday


tomorrow 7:15 PM

monday 8:15 PM

[Nicky91]

exciting tonight!


expecting 10 strong performances

[Kate!]

Fleur that was outstanding. If she doesn't make the final I'll eat my hat.

[Kate!]

Lovely Helen. A beautiful performance.
