Previous thread here

I think it's a pretty good QF as QFs go.

Rhys today. He was my least favourite last week but excellent dance and no emotional manipulation crap this week. AJ or Dan to go. I'd rather AJ

dementedma · 04/12/2021 19:44

2 votes for John, 1 for AJ

Redcrayons · 04/12/2021 19:45

3 votes for AJ.

SoupDragon · 04/12/2021 19:45

@CampagVelocet

Rose is very obviously going to win the whole thing so I'm not wasting a vote on her
I don't think it's obvious at all. As she's never been near the bottom of the judge's leaderboard (I don't think) we've no real idea how popular she's been in the voting. Clearly Dan has masses of public support so he could well win when the judge's aren't involved at all.
Clawdy · 04/12/2021 19:45

Voted for Rhys and AJ.

Onlinedilema · 04/12/2021 19:46

Logically I know Dan and AJ are popular because both have been saved by the public from the dance off. Rhys isn't popular as he has been in the dance off many times.
I'm wondering how popular John is, I'm guessing the public will save him too.
I want Rose and Gio to win I think.

Salsa is now going to be the new Samba.

Will probably vote for AJ. John and Dan both fucked up. Nadiya was dragging Dan around the floor in the second part of the dance. I find John looks the same rhymically in all dances.

I hope AJ manages to pull it off again in the DO. I don't think the public will be happy if she goes out.

Romeiswheretheheartis · 04/12/2021 19:47

I'm voting 3x Rhys. I just watched it back and he actually nailed his lifts. I'll be gutted for him if he's in the dance off.

SequinsandStiIettos · 04/12/2021 19:47

3 for Rhys here
He doesn't deserve to be in the DO
Am happy for a salsa-off with AJ going through. Sorry John.

TitsInAbsentia · 04/12/2021 19:47

I've vote Rose and AJ (3 each, got a log in for DH to vote too!). I really won't be happy if either are in the dance off especially if Dan isn't.

ThursdayLastWeek · 04/12/2021 19:49

I voted 3 x Rhys because I love him anyway but a) that dance was shit hot and b) I thought he was funny with Claudia afterwards.

JV & R were cute - that’s the kind of dance I’d love to learn, to that song but it felt kind of predictable/obvious for them? I realise that’s harsh, buy hey ho.

Normally I’m all for AJ but even before that bum lift it felt a bit weird. She had a slightly terrified rictus grin on her face.

HollyChristmas · 04/12/2021 19:52

2 John , 1 for Rhys .

Onlinedilema · 04/12/2021 19:52

Dh said last week he thinks Dan will make the final.
I think he could be right as plenty of average white males have gone on to win over more talented women.

CounsellorTroi · 04/12/2021 19:53

3 for Rhys here. No way does he deserve to be in the dance off. Dan does.

Juniper68 · 04/12/2021 19:53

@IReallyLikeCrows

I love AJ but if figure if she's in the dance-off she's safe and that lots of other people will vote for her anyway. For the first time, I've given all three of my votes to one couple because 1. They were f-ing brilliant and 2. I don't want them to be in the dance-off again even if they would be safe in the dance-off. So, yeah. All three votes to the hugely improved Rhys.
All mine went to Rhys too.
herecomesthsun · 04/12/2021 19:55

I thought AJ looked a bit nervous from the off.

I voted for Rose, AJ and John here.

I'm now voting for the people I'd most like to see in the final.

ilovesooty · 04/12/2021 19:56

I normally give all my votes to Rose but one of them went to Rhys tonight. He doesn't deserve to be in the dance off again.

MoveHouse · 04/12/2021 19:56

AJ, Rose, John have had my vote
DD voted the same

DH has voted Rose, Dan and Rhys

Thecurliestwurly · 04/12/2021 19:57

2 AJ and 1 Rose. I think lots of people will vote for Rhys tonight. Voted AJ as I think she deserves a second chance, and 1 Rose as I don't want it to be a Rose v AJ DO - that would be horrible! Happy for John or Dan to go this week, would prefer Dan. I think a Dan salsa would have been 10x worse, can't recall him doing any latin actually.....

Wolfcub · 04/12/2021 19:57

I voted AJ x2 plus one for Rose. I think Rhys will beat whoever he is against if he ends up in the dance off. I'm not so sure AJ will and I think she deserves to stay. Rhys, Rose and AJ for the final for me now. Johannes and John need to glue themselves together at the pelvis to beat any of them I think

EvilRingahBitch · 04/12/2021 19:58

AJ's safe in the dance-off against Dan I reckon, but not against anyone else because that salsa wasn't great even without the car crash at the end. I think we just want Dan to be in the dance-off against someone ..anyone. That was a brilliant dance from Rhys and I don't want him to put John/AJ out.

Fenelladepompom · 04/12/2021 20:03

Hated the Rose dive/lift move. The way she raised her arms and took off, it was more gymnastics than dance and spoiled the flow of the routine

CharityDingle · 04/12/2021 20:06

Shirley always gets in a lather for one male contestant, at least Dan isn't absurdly young

So true.

petalpower · 04/12/2021 20:06

I voted John, AJ and Rose.

SequinsandStiIettos · 04/12/2021 20:06

Dan did a cha cha earlier in the series and a rumba last week - he hasn't done salsa or samba yet.
