STRICTLY COME DANCING FINAL THREAD 22/12/12

[Sparklingbrook]

Place your bets......

Why don't they show the numbers for a bit longer, really annoying when you are voting one each for the whole family.

I have got through every time and worried not enough people voting as it is not engaged. So I vote again!!!

< Shoves Kimberley aside > Voted for Louis! So glad they pulled it out the bag - will be thrilled if he wins after that performance.
Did anyone else think DVO's bum was too flat in her jive? I thought it was supposed to stick out a bit? < technical >

I have genuine insider info on the Flavia/Louis relationship. She couldn't stand him at first. Really couldn't stand him.

I do hope Frankel/Cavemum is at a swanky tux and tiara do tonight. And not lurking again.

Ariel - that makes sense. On the first show where they picked the couples she had her head in her hands when her name was called.

Have been posting on the wrong thread!!

DVO at last did a brilliant performance at last in her jive. Show dance was really all fantastic lifts, not keen on the bits of dancing she did. Kimberley Vienese Waltz was super Dani's tango was much better in her attack and characterisation, but showdance disappointing. Louis - what can I say - Darcy said he did not have enough arch in his feet to be a ballet dancer, that's why he sometimes looks a bit flatfooted. His showdance was like a contemporary lyrical/dramatic dance and even Craig loved it. Bare chest and all, Flavia' choreography made that dance for him

I liked that he recognises he's not easy to work with and thanked Flavia. He's definately growing up

I've now got through with one each for Dani and Kimberley for the DCs and two for Louis from me and DH

Yes they seem ok now.

I agree about DVO great, work ethic but she still annoys me. It's her desperation to win which is losing her votes.
She is a 38 year old mother, so one would think that she would have supporters on mumsnet, but people simply don't warm to her.

Do the judges pick the winners?

Ood - there could be a queue.

Denise is best dancer I want her or Louis

Ariel, that isn't a nice addition to this lovely thread.

I don't think mners react well to the "vote for a fellow MUM" angle tbh

Not at all. I was impressed that they have obviously worked through it.

The public choose, coco.

I think Chubfuddler is right - lots of 'mums' in the public eye get judged on MN beyond the fact they are mums.

Not because she is a fellow mum, but because she is actually the best dancer, who also happens to be a mother.

well, Nimble is better than Devo, imho. But it's opinion, innit?

Hurry up merlin. We're waiting for Strictly

Just put ITV1 on. DVO and Nicky Byrne taking part in a terrible quiz show hosted by Paddy McGuinness. They have nil points.

I"ve voted for Louis & Flavia - twice! Just to be sure

Thanks . I got confused by Bruces inane gabbling.
