It happened to Tasha and Ashley in their respective years.

And I am saying this as someone that wants Karen to win (and is also getting some harsh criticism online) but the opinions around Amber are incredibly harsh, and do just seem like firm clutching at straws to try and justify why they don't want Amber to win.

For me I want Karen to beat Amber for a few reasons.

1. She's a Bluenose (and the most popular Footballer in Strictly history, Villa fans)

2. I am more familiar with her from watching her on Sky Sports.

3. The Jive, Paso, and Argentine Tango performances from Karen have been some of my personal favourites this series.

It's not hard to come up with reasons without being so hostile imo.

That's not aimed at you btw Joey, I was speaking about the public in general.

I know what you mean in the main Mock.

I don't understand myself why somehow the public haven't taken to Amber but following her last tine in the dance off, it was pretty clear they didn't, immaterial of the dance or routine.
So unless the Judges try to 'engineer' a final place.
She may not get there.
However she will not much more than likely win the series as the final is down to only the public voting.

I've liked her from the first weeks, along with Lewis.
I'm still stunned he was even in the bottom 2.

However too, the judges placed Karen last on their leaderboard, well the public gave their answer to that bad decision.
I like Karen.

I think it's been a really strong series this year.
The routines have been really entertaining.
So whoever is in the final 3, the one I'd be least pleased to see in the final is Balvinder because I'm equally stunned she is still in the running anyhow.

However if Amber, Karen and George are the finalists although I'll now be supporting George.
Whichever of those 3 I'd be really pleased to see win.

I still can't believe that the Reform vote failed Thomas so badly.

I 100% agree with you Joey.

I'd be happy with any of them three winning.

And yeah, sadly people have really got it in their heads that Amber is this evil person.

I even read a post on DS on Sunday night that called Amber "smug" for being supportive towards Lewis on the results show, after they were both announced as the bottom two.

I don't think Amber is evil i just can't warm to her, she's a trained dancer and does show's in the West End.

That's perfectly fine imo, Millyrose.

You can't like everyone after all, and people can't be forced into liking Amber either.

It's just some of the posts that I've seen on DS about Amber are unhinged.
