STRICTLY COME DANCING FINAL THREAD 22/12/12

[Sparklingbrook]

Place your bets......

Pleeeeese Bruce RETIRE - spoiling the final for me, last series for you!
Anton and Claudia for 2013?

Mel and Sue for 2013!

DVO and James were on a massive charm offensive.

She hasn't had training and hasn't properly danced before.

I think she has had a lot of unfair accusations and I just know if they don't win people will ask if that is why not.

Ooh yes, that would be awesome!

letuspray - that would be BRILLIANT

Dani doesn't do it for me. Plus that tango actually looks quite violent at the beginning

AT was fab! At least as good as Devo's jive?

I think Kimberly should win, she is great and has come along well from the beginning.

Can't warm to Dani or Louis, his something about them, a bit boring!

Denise is really good but I don't think she will win because of all the bad press.

Tess chooses her dresses with her stylist...

I'm just marking my place for later on.

My lot are watching fucking rugby . In Irish to add insult to injury.

LetusPray - if they can bake cakes whilst doing an argentine tango, that would do it for me.

Paul Hollywood and Ola, Mary Berry and Anton next year

look at Jerry in the background ha ha ha

Surely not shandy? Has she not got a mirror? It's hideous! I wonder if the alternatives were worse

And I bet that dress looks freakin' AMAZING in the flesh. Just not working so well on camera. Which kinda defeats the point !

I'd forgotten Jerry was in this!

Also jumping on the DVO is pg bandwagon.

What are all the dancers doing behind Tess, Aliona and Ola keep pushing each other

I admire danni she has matured in herself as a dancer and into a woman rather than a youngsters

Miranda and Anton for 2013!

From the Guardian's live blog. Heidi's internet gone so Stuart Heritage is filling in. He says he doesn't watch (or like) Strictly! He's just posted this:

"So then. Tracey Beaker just danced. It may or may not have involved a telephone box. She is now backstage and being interviewed by what appears to be a Cyberman dressed up as Justin Hawkins from The Darkness."

Can't warm to dani or Dvo so it is between Kimberley and Louis.

Bruce needs to go - not just unfunny but homophobic and offensive

Definitely something going on in the background there.

Oi Jerry - leave your hair alone!!

Yup, in any show like this, the presenter works with the stylist. After all, would you just put on a frock someone chose for you? But see above post re this one! The lights bouncing off the sequins make her boobs look mono. Shame, because she is a stunning woman with a fabulous figure.

I worry about Kimberley doing this, I don't think the ballroom goes down as well as the Latin.

Ooh costume got caught there

Kimberley is beautiful , with a stunning body. That waist.
