Glitterballs Ahoy! It's the SCD Final ...thread 10...

[TheSassyAssassin]

Bingo cards at the ready everyone for Saturday night!

I console myself by watching Danny and Oti on YouTube muttering “They wuz robbed”

Me too, Livingboy

I'm so glad that we aren't bitter.

I really didn’t like Danny’s show dance, i thought Ore’s was much better. I liked Ore’s Jive as well.

My favourite show dance is still Tom and Camilla’s!

Not bitter at all

So many wow! moments with Danny and Oti though - not just one. That cartwheel in their Charleston! Oti’s leap of faith in the AS! The whole of the samba!

I even loved the ones that don’t get mentioned so much - the cha cha was such a fantastic week one dance, and one of my personal faves was the story-telling in their Viennese waltz. It helps that I absolutely love that INXS song though.

I loved ITT yesterday. I'm excited about the final because literally ANYONE could win it. On the whole though I hope that Gemma does, she seems such a genuine girl with no side to her. She spoke well and contrasted with the 'me me me me' of the obvious performers Debbeh and Alex.

Joe is a bloke, though sweet natured, his dancing is not that amazing He isn't Jay or Ore (Katiya annoys me slightly, she pushed him too hard IMO) so it's effing GOT to be a woman this year!!!!

I'm still bitter about big head Gleb losing Anita's entry into the finals. Not Danny who's cute but, once again, was a ringer performer

Joe deserves to win as much as any of the women tonight. I certainly wouldn’t hold it against him if he did win.

Ahhh, Gleb

gutted I have to attend a family event tonight and will MISS THE FINAL! I've watched the whole bloody series and been rooting for Joe since episode 1.
S'not fair. sulks massively

demented sorry what's that? You've been struck down with food poisoning and can't make your family event any longer? Oh no so sorry to hear that you will be enjoying Strictly with us in your sick bed this evening

Cee If Joe had been a woman he would have left before now, because he doesn't have the talents of e.g. Alex or Gemma. Katiya is the one who does those lifts (some of which were mad. like that 'drop' one).

plan sassy

My favourite show dance is still Tom and Camilla’s!

I'm with you on that. Zoe and Ian's comes second. My favourite dance of this series was the pros' fashion show, mostly because it was peak Oti. Do you think if I ask nicely they'll do that again tonight?

Very excited for the finals. I have a bit of a soft spot for Gemma but I don't think she's the best dancer so I don't really mind who lifts the glitter ball. Just looking forward to some show stopping show dances.

Do we know which dances the couples have picked as their favourite dance, or is that a secret until tonight?

Just watching ITT from yesterday. Jonnie has had his haircut and omg, he looks damn hot!!!

Just jumping on this thread for the final.

Think Joe or Debbie will probably win. Alexandra is the better dancer but just don't think the public aren't behind her, which is a shame, as I'm looking forward to her dancing the most.

I agree with everyone that Danny was robbed last year. I loved his samba and most of the other dances, but I think the public voted for Ore as he was less experienced, which I suppose is fair enough.

I think I would rather not have any comments or marks from judges until after the voting has closed tonight

Otherwise it is their scores and comments that will influence public

Then after voting closes they give an appraisal of all the dances while waiting for counting of votes etc

I realise that isn't what is going to happen but wish it was like that

IhaveChilly That's what happens usually doesn't it? I don't think the judges influence many people because Susan wouldn't have stayed in for so long!

The judges definitely don't influence me. Especially Bruno with his flapping about like a seagull caught in a fishing net

Nor me! I do like Shirley's proper technical appraisals though. She shouldn't have given Joe a 10!.

I don't mind Bruno's waving arms. he's fun. (unless you're sitting next to him of course!).

Completely forgot I have a leaving party to go to tonight, if one of my best friends wasn’t moving to Australia I absolutely wouldn’t go but I’m going to have to miss the final! 😭😭😭

And the drinking game! 😭

Looking forward to Katya and Joe, just been watching some of her and Neil, amazing!!!!

And this!!!!

Shirley missing it? Oh no.

The Saturday night (And Sunday with added octopi/octopuses) Strictly fest on here has been the MOST fun and I wanted all my little virtual chums to be here

Who's doing bingo then?

I've invited my mum round tonight for the final. Dad passed away 3 months ago and he hated strictly so me and mum are going to watch it with a Chinese takeaway and probably a few
I want Joe to win

DD has built her annual den on the sofa..this year it at least comes without umbrellas. Odd child.
