It's on at 6 o clock next week! Early doors.

Thanks for the warning Fuzzy

Get that octopus primed and ready!

I loved their final moments then. He was truly proud of her.

Get lost Shirley. What a surprise, you picked the guy!!

Ranvir left me cold.
Jamie (albeit a bit annoying) deserves his place.
Harvey to win.

Jambeforeclottedcream I know right .

We know what Maisie and Gorka have chosen to dance again. The other choices will be interesting.

Gio is so lovely!

Flag flying high for Maisie and Gorky!

Gorka. Ffs autocorrect!

I'd ask my GP for that prescription. Oh Joe Varney.

Harvey maybe his first dance?
Bill maybe the doctor Doolittle one (quickstep?)
Jamie-couples choice surely

@SchadenfreudePersonified

Giovanni should be on prescription for building woman’s confidence up!

If only!

I could do with a scrip for that.

We all could! He’s came across very well, I’m sure he must know what Ranvir has gone through with splitting up with her husband as he seemed so very caring of her, which was so lovely so see, she blossomed into a fab ballroom dancer.

Glad Jamie went through he gives his all...ranvir looks stilted and tense...toll in next weekend

They could have said "y'know what, it's been a really crap year let's have you all in the final"

Roll not toll!

Harvey will do the American Smooth, I think.
Agree CC for Jamie.
Maybe CC for Bill too, though I hope he chooses his Quickstep too.

So gutted to see Ranvir and Gio out. It's spoilt my enjoyment of the series not to see them dance in the final. I don't want to sound churlish but I can't get excited about anyone in the final. Jamie doesn't dance well enough to deserve the win. Bill started off well but hasn't been great lately. I really can't take to Maisie and don't enjoy her dances. NVWLS I'm sure is a nice young man but seems terribly bland. I suppose it would be nice for Janette to get a win. But on the whole I'm not that bothered about the final now.

It's going to be an odd final

We aren't going to have the dance where all the celebs come back and take a turn with a bit of their iconic dance

I'd be willing to pay privately for the Giovanni treatment

Yes Ranvir didn't say very much to Gio - in terms of appreciation and thanks.

Bill
HRVY
Ranvir
Maisie
Jamie

Monkseal's order of dance draws easiest to hardest (no idea what based on).
If Ranvi had done a rumba with Gio and they had kept up the hand on knee on it takes two and the showmance, they might have done it...but as Chris points out, she could have come second in the public vote and still be out.
My wish for a bollywood or bhangra based freestyle with Gio in guyliner goes down in flames. Ah well. Pleased for Jamie. God loves a trier.

Absolutely. Just what I've just said to my Mum.. 😔 😔

That would have been the right thing to do.

Blimey, this thread has gone a bit snarky and miserable. Where's the JOY!?

I completely agree.

There's only joy if there's people in the final who you want to be there.
