So the girls are clearly better but Frankie doesn't really come across very well on TV and there's something about Caroline I can't put my finger on but she seems so insincere.

Who's going to win?

Ds1 voted for Simon, DS2 voted for Frankie, I voted for Caroline.

I don't particularly love Caroline but I think she's the best dancer, I like Mark though, he's not a dancer, he's tried very hard and is v jolly!

ilovesooty · 20/12/2014 20:21

I've voted for Simon but would be happy enough with a Caroline win. Frankie is dull, Kevin gets on my nerves and their show dance was nothing special. I don't mind Mark but I think he's the weakest of the finalists.

Caroline is the best dancer, but I do like how the boys were both a bit crap to start off with and have improved so much. DD likes Frankie.

Oh dear, looks like Caroline's going to win.

She's so false with all her 'hand over face after dance' routine. She's a fabulous dancer but isn't it all an act?

I'm rooting for Caroline but starting to really warm to Simon, would be happy with either one of them. It's Mark I find insincere. I don't buy the humble, cheeky chappy persona he is selling.........he was best man for the vile Jack Tweed .....

Caroline. Love her. And what a pair of legs!!

Like Mark too.

Mrsstarlord · 20/12/2014 20:30

+1 for Caroline, not keen on Simon at all. He is so simpering and Frankie is like Tess, always posing at the camera (which to be fair given her line of work she probably has to do a lot). I like Mark but he's by no means the best dancer.

In this house, ds1 voted Mark, ds2 Caroline, me Caroline. Husband glanced up from his iPad and tutted. Grin

SweetPeaPods · 20/12/2014 20:30

I think Caroline or Mark will win.

18yearstooold · 20/12/2014 20:33

I think it was obvious from week one that caroline was a trained dancer but the majority of the celebs under 40 are -if you want to sing or act you generally will do dancing as well

That being said, she's the best dancer IMHO and I hope she wins

OnTheThursdayOfChristmas · 20/12/2014 20:33

Simon for me

AskMeAnother · 20/12/2014 20:34

I don't like Caroline.

TheFairyCaravan · 20/12/2014 20:38

I think Caroline will win, but I want Frankie to win and voted for her based solely on their show dance.

Peepants78 · 20/12/2014 20:48

Really not a fan of Simon. Jake was my favourite I think Caroline will/should win

TakemedowntoPotatoCity · 20/12/2014 20:58

Caroline is very good at hiding her emotions. She comes across as cold.

What I wouldn't give to have her figure though.... she will win.

DidoTheDodo · 20/12/2014 21:01

I wish Claudia would do different make up. I think the heavy eyeliner and pale lipstick is really ageing, and she's so pretty underneath it all.

Acciosanity · 20/12/2014 21:04

Kids want Frankie to win. I want Caroline, that show dance was beautiful.
DH doesn't give a shit Grin

JellicleCat · 20/12/2014 21:06

Frankie, but I think it will be Caroline.

WeShouldOpenABar · 20/12/2014 21:08

Caroline cos I'll win 70 quid Smile

FoxSticks · 20/12/2014 21:10

Before tonight I wanted Frankie to win but after the show dance I'd like Caroline.

mushypeasontoast · 20/12/2014 21:17

Simon for dd and I. I havent enjoyed Carolines dances as much as the judges. In my opinion they have been overmarking her.

Lottiedoubtie · 20/12/2014 21:18

Caroline she's a fab dancer and likeable too IMO. She doesn't 'play the game' brilliantly so people think she's cold/insincere but I don't think she really is.

Alisvolatpropiis · 20/12/2014 21:21

Caroline's Charleston is just fantastic.

Frankie chose her best as well.

Simon has done really well but I'd say he is the third best dancer there now.

LittleDonkeyLeftie · 20/12/2014 21:23

Caroline. I feel really sorry for her as I think she is madly in love with Pasha Sad

tiggydiggydee · 20/12/2014 21:25

Simon's tango was wow!

ilovesooty · 20/12/2014 21:25

That performance from Simon and Kristina was special.
