Joe will win. I'm calling it now.

I don't want him to, but he will.

He has millions of followers, and his sister is urging everyone to vote for him too. Just look at how many views his dances have on YouTube.

I think he's topped the public vote every week by a considerable margin and none of the others will be able to touch him.

TSSDNCOP · 09/12/2018 16:10

If Ashley is in the DO against anyone, poss exception Faye, she will win. The DO should be Joe and Lauren, but it won’t be. I just hope it’s not Ashley/Stacey.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 09/12/2018 16:53

The public is a funny animal, Schaden. Poor Julian Clary.

And who could forget the magnificently lumpen John Sergeant? Week after week the public responded to the judges’ very harsh criticism of his dancing by voting in their squillions. Nothing he could do would put them off. In the end he had to withdraw because, in his words, there was a very real chance he would win.

Signing in...late as usual. I think the "sherry" last night may have affected me.

See you later, Evensong permitting.

billysboy · 09/12/2018 17:08

lots of educated guesses on here now as to who is in the DO

have read the spoiler this morning along with a lot of others it would seem

SauvignonBlanche · 09/12/2018 17:13

I haven’t read it and don’t want to know yet.

CaptainBrickbeard · 09/12/2018 17:24

I’m with Sauvignon, haven’t read it, never read it, really don’t want any references to it - however veiled! I’ve had it spoiled for me by people (unwittingly) before and it really does actually spoil the whole experience of watching the results show. I don’t know why anyone wants to know before tbh!

IPromiseIWontBeNaughty · 09/12/2018 17:31

I had to yell nicely at BIL not to tell me who’d gone out. He does like winding me up Wink

dontcallmelen · 09/12/2018 17:36

Yy lots of the recent posts, I think maybe it’s one of the reasons why I haven’t really enjoyed this series, the dreadful overmarking & judges comments which have been nonsensical especially in regard to Joe/Lauren think it’s a real shame Charles didn’t make it to the semi finals yy I didn’t like him at first but by the end I was willing him on.
Please please, someone at the BBC give Tess the robot her marching orders plus most of the judges, Craig is the only one with some integrity.
Also think a shake up off pro dancers wouldn’t come amiss, I would also going by the little we have seen prefer Johannes over Neil.
Finally Cats I poured the last of the sherry, down the drain made a good job of stripping them clean.

YearOfYouRemember · 09/12/2018 17:58

billysboy, please don't spoil it anymore than you already have.

IHaveBrilloHair · 09/12/2018 18:00

Spoilering this thread is properly shittyAngry

HumbleCrumble · 09/12/2018 18:06

Luckily saw the last couple of posts first so I haven't read the spoiler, but will now have to stay off the thread until after the show Angry

PawneeParksDept · 09/12/2018 18:09

I have a comment to make about spoilers on thread but will refrain til after broadcast

Belindabauer · 09/12/2018 18:10

I hope Lauren goes.
If she isn't in the DO then she must be getting the most public votes.
I think Ashley will be in the DO again and hope Faye isn't
I sometimes wonder about people.
You do know that most tv stars have had lots of dance experience. They don't get stopped at traffic lights and asked "Oi you, do you want to be the new main star in Eastenders?"
They have trained all their life to get to this point.
Sports people are incredibly for and athletic so have an advantage too.
Lots of people without dance experience refuse to go on the show. People like Peter Kay and Brian Cox have declined the invertation.

I don't think the general public know what they are talking about.
Just look at past winners to see that the best dancer doesn't often win.
Last year was a prime example of that.
Far dos if you like that person and want them to win no matter what but don't pretend that they are the better dancer when clearly they are not.
As for the judges I can't criticise Darcey after seeing her dance many years ago, I just cant, she was flawless.

ManicUnicorn · 09/12/2018 18:48

Gary Lineker and Tim Henman turned them down as well.

GodrestyemerrySchadenfreud · 09/12/2018 18:58

Are you confusing Ashley with Lauren Schaden,

Oooh! Sorry BlackAmerican

You are right - I am! For Ashley, read Lauren.

Don't know know how I got jumbled up that badly. Must be because I'd been reading the previous post and Ashley's name was mentioned there.

(In my defence I'd been at the sherry and am also full of Night Nurse. Grin)

GodrestyemerrySchadenfreud · 09/12/2018 19:00

And who could forget the magnificently lumpen John Sergeant?

Oh fleas! How could he slip my mind? He was a lovely guy, to

GodrestyemerrySchadenfreud · 09/12/2018 19:01

If Ashley is in the DO against anyone, poss exception Faye, she will win. The DO should be Joe and Lauren, but it won’t be. I just hope it’s not Ashley/Stacey.

I'm hoping for Lauren and Joe, too.

GodrestyemerrySchadenfreud · 09/12/2018 19:05

What spoilers? I haven't seen spoilers. Informed speculation, yes, but has anyone posted a spoiler?

CaptainBrickbeard · 09/12/2018 19:09

Godrestye someone has mentioned they e read the spoiler and said something about it corroborating something else - trying to be really vague here! - the post really gives a hint about the results and obviously that’s not on for these threads.

IPromiseIWontBeNaughty · 09/12/2018 19:12

Nearly showtime!!!

Wolfcub · 09/12/2018 19:13
