Watching late tonight because fireworks!
I agree with PPs, I think Aston may be in trouble. The judges don't like his feet and Janette's choreography is really poor when it comes to traditional ballroom. It would be a shame as he is naturally very talented.
As for the other pair, it should really be Anton and Ruth but they are clearly more popular with viewers than Mollie and AJ, so it may be them.
After a million series I can't believe people still getting hung up on the 'previous dance experience' thing.
To watch 15 people with zero dance talent or skill or experience would be excruciating and viewers would switch off in their droves.
The balance of the cast is the thing but I think Alexandra is the nearest thing to a 'pro' dancer, not Debbie. She's younger and her dance experience in current musicals means she starts ahead of the field.
However, her popularity is another thing all together.
I think she has a naked ambition and knows how good a Strictly win would be for her career. However, she has to put on the faux " oh it's sooooo tricky" shtick to get the public to engage with her 'journey'
Very fake in my view.
On the positive side, I love how Giovanni is with Debbie, so respectful and caring, I've seen a whole new side to him this year.
