STRICTLY COME DANCING FINAL THREAD 22/12/12

[Sparklingbrook]

Place your bets......

Dance much better on a smaller stage,

That's was brilliant.

DVO Perfect performance this time.

I saw him in Wicked, he's gorgeous.

Don't like the music but she danced fantastically

DVO is a great dancer

I feel sorry for her, she's the best but she won't win

I agree, I think this was one of DVO's best dances, it suits her, it was good and it connected. In fact, I like it better this time than at Wembley.

That was good, but there's just something about them that is inherently offputting and I can't for the life of me say what it is It's like a reverse X factor. She's pretty with a lovely figure, and has worked and worked and can dance and all that, but is still annoying/offputting/not likeable
And other people who are, let's face it, crap at just about everything, are "beloved of the masses" because they just have "it" - It's very odd.

Yes Ood they did it at Wembley last time didn't they?

Oh she was brilliant, it just doesn't do it for me.

I am not keen in the charleston tbh
Of all the dances, why the charleston?
On the US show, they do Bollywood and street dancing...why can't we??

I like watching the reaction of the other pros/contrstants

I saw lee mead as Fiyero in wicked. He was good but not astounding. Rachel tucker as Elphaba carried it.

Didn't see this first time round. Didn't work for me as a charleston TBH. The steps were all there and she danced it very well but, I don't know, maybe it was the music?

A charleston for me needs to be a bit wacky and quirky and flappery, but then again I don't know what I'm talking about

I do like that dance. Slightly (infinitesimally) more clumsy in and out of the lifts than last time - I think stamina is often the decider in the finals - it will be interesting to see if Kim is still strong for her third dance.
Darcy is really not helping with the "true professional" comments, Denise had a slightly stabby grin listening to it.

Agree Pom

Louis also doing the Charleston- can't be as good as DVO's

I'm a latecomer to this so sorry for gatecrashing but I'm lost on the voting.

How can voting be open when they are still dancing ?

They've also put them in reverse order of favourites?

We are outraged here, have we understood it wrong or are they trying to do all poss to make Denise win?

Am alternating between posting here & trying to vote & not getting through. Poor Louis is missing out ( and Dani did before), what am I doing wrong?

It's here desperation to win, a bit like Jason Donovan...and her 'hardness'. Just difficult to like her. For me anyway.

Saw DVO as paulette in legally blonde bshecwas really good but not a patch in Jill halfpenny's interpretation of the same role.

Charleston is my fave dance, I just love it!

ItsaTIARA, I do wonder how people will take, and how Darcey meant that true professional comment...

I smiled at that itsatiara - darcy said 'you are a true professional' and then corrected herself and said 'you look like a true professional' - oops!

itsaTIARA ( BBT reference btw?) I grinned at Darcys comments
