Ore is a good dancer, however I think Danny is and was just brilliant tonight with Oti. Smile

Totally agree, Danny was the best over the whole series and Oti is the most talented choreographer on Strictly. Their show dance was fab-u-lous!

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 17/12/2016 21:44

Danny was the best dancer throughout by a mile, but there was too much resentment about the fact that he has some dance experience already. The judges do love a Strictly journey.

I think Danny and Oti are a class apart, though, and she is a stunning choreographer.

I feel sad for them both because they were so obviously the best over the series as a whole and if that was what was being judged, he should have won. But it clearly wasn't, so c'est la vie, I guess.

ThymeLord · 17/12/2016 21:44

Danny was better I think but Ore had zero experience so had progressed more. I think Danny has dance experience doesn't he?

TheImprobableGirl · 17/12/2016 21:47

Bit unfair OP- I haven't watched it yet Sad
Not even a spoiler warning?

fluffygreenmonsterhoody · 17/12/2016 21:50

You know the judges' scores don't count in the final right?

And yy to a spoiler warning.

iogo · 17/12/2016 21:52

Thank goodness I've already seen it! Spoiler title OP. Bad form.

GeneHuntsMistress · 17/12/2016 21:52

Bloody hell thanks for that. Didn't you really have to put that title? Fucks sake.

timelytess · 17/12/2016 21:54

Danny should have won. He was the best dancer by far.

JensenAcklesUndercrackers · 17/12/2016 21:55

Dick move spoiling it for those of us who weren't able to watch live.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 17/12/2016 21:55

Why do we need a spoiler warning for sonething that's already been broadcast? Hmm

You know the judges' scores don't count in the final right?

Was that to me? Um, yes, obviously - but I didn't mention the scores. My reference to the judges was to do with Len's transparent bias towards Ore "HE's NEVER DANCED BEFORE" Oduba. Len couldn't have repeated it more if he'd tried.

maybeshesawomble · 17/12/2016 21:55

TBF the thread title makes fuck all sense

TwinkleTwinkleLittleBat · 17/12/2016 21:56

Voted for Danny but it was very close tonight. I'm not unhappy at all about Ore winning, good on him.

Mn could you edit the title for anyone not yet seen it?

GeneHuntsMistress · 17/12/2016 21:56

Can you get the title changed so some other poor fucker doesn't have the same as me, looking forward to watching something and then finding out the result.

HeadElf · 17/12/2016 21:58

Biscuit for the spoiler!!!! Those of us with poorly twins who have spent their evenings rocking and singing and begging their children to go to sleep haven't had a chance to catch up yet!!!!!

Fiona2609 · 17/12/2016 21:59

Depends how you view the show.
I can dance and for me the show is a load of rubbish, however, both Louise and Ore came from nothing and produced very good dances, as did Ed Balls.
Danny messed up this evening.
I think the result was right.

Exileinengland1999 · 17/12/2016 21:59

I think it's a fix! Danny Mac was way better and looking on the Facebook page before, most people said they wanted him to win. Fix, fix, fix Shock

lapsedorienteerer · 17/12/2016 21:59

yabu:)

Izzy24 · 17/12/2016 22:00

Really fed up about this! Was just about to watch on record.

WorraLiberty · 17/12/2016 22:00

Glad I watched it already, as I normally record it so you thread would have been a total spoiler.

But YANBU, I agree Danny should have won.

sj257 · 17/12/2016 22:01

Spoiler still in the title even though you have put spoiler warning!

MaynJune · 17/12/2016 22:02

Louise didn't come from nothing! she's had loads of dance training and was a judge on a dance show for trained dancers, in which she talked about all the hard work she'd put in to dance.
I like her but she's no novice.

SukeyTakeItOffAgain · 17/12/2016 22:03

Oh FGS people are so precious about spoilers. Grow up! It's on the BBC homepage. It's all over the internet. Why should people not talk about just because other people might not have got round to watching it? How long are they obliged to wait?

cardibach · 17/12/2016 22:04

I don't understand why anyone thinks it's fixed. What would be the benefit? Really? If they did fix it and got caught it would be catastrophic after previous scandals. One dancer winning over another makes fuck alll difference to anything, so there's no point.
Ore was the most consistent tonight, and, while Danny is the better dancer, Ore has made the most progress. What the Facebook page suggests is no indication - I voted and I've never been on the Facebook page.

DeepanKrispanEven · 17/12/2016 22:08

People are oddly inconsistent in their approach to celebrities on Strictly with dance training. People like Denise van Outen, Helen George and Natalie Gumede were deeply unpopular for that reason, but it's a whole different story with Danny Mac.

MinceForBrains · 17/12/2016 22:12

I agree cardi. I'm not on FB so haven't seen that. I wonder if the FB page reflected a Danny bias because he's an actor in a young person's soap and his fanbase are more likely to use FB?
