She should have won.

So disappointed for her; I was voting for her and hoped she would make it to the final. Sometimes people aren’t as strong as they are portrayed. I hope she recovers well.

Same here - she was excellent! And seemed such a lovely woman, too.

Sorry for both her and Giovanni.

Is anyone on the latest strictly no spoilers thread. It's not coming up for me in searches.

Plump82 · 24/10/2023 21:58

She put a message up on Instagram thanking the crew and other contestants but didn't mention Gio which I thought was strange.

Remember him from Red Dwarf did that with Amy Dowling but to her actual face poor girl was devastated! Maybe some people are not cut out or able for the training .

Evening spoiler fans!

Entertainment Odds poll suggests we have an exciting evening ahead of us, with poor Adam or possibly even Angela Rippon dropping into the dance-off from the top half of the leaderboard to obliterate doomed Zara.

Bobby, Nigel, Annabel and Krishnan seem to have enough votes to keep them safe with two ties on the board, so my heart is heavy for poor Tiggerish Adam.

Stroopwaffels · 28/10/2023 22:25

If Zara is in the dance off, she’s toast.

EvilRingahBitch · 28/10/2023 22:28

I'm more certain that Zara will be in the dance-off than any other dance-off I can remember. She's 99.9999999% nailed on. Tbh I think she was 98% nailed on before the show even started this evening. She seems nice, and she's working hard, but she can't dance and she demonstrably hasn't got a core vote.

EvilRingahBitch · 28/10/2023 23:07

Spoiler is out - as the polls predicted it was Adam vs Zara and Zara is gone.

I was just about to check

No surprises

Definitely the right decision.

TheShellBeach · 28/10/2023 23:12

Well she was on borrowed time.

pink970 · 28/10/2023 23:52

The right decision, there really wasn't going to be any other outcome for Zara tonight being honest

Choux · 29/10/2023 00:03

I wonder if the judges know the votes each week? Is it possible they overmarked Adam to try and save him from the dance off. And also so that if he did drop into the dance off (as he has been near the bottom of votes in recent weeks) it was going to be clear to Zara that she was going home.

Each of the last two weeks we have had DM stories that Adam has been ill and resting and he missed his ITT appearance last night. I bet next week he acknowledges his RA to max out the post dance off / sympathy vote boost.

There's a high possibility the judges know yes, as producers will know

Definitely the right result. Zara’s consistently been one of the worst dancers for weeks.

SequinsandStiIettos · 29/10/2023 10:35

Skeletons in the spa.
Poor girl didn't stand a chance.
She was the weakest one so her time.
I personally think it would have been kinder to let her go last week on a better dance. Ah well.
Adam's days now appear to be numbered too. He did well last night but I won't be bereft when he departs like I will Krish. I just cannot warm to Luba.

Lentilweaver · 29/10/2023 11:23

Not surprised. I guess it will be Adam next week, then a battle between Krishnan, Annabel and one of the Angelas.

Stroopwaffels · 29/10/2023 11:43

The sooner Angela goes hte better. She has avoided all the fast dances so far, the judges fawn and gush over her like no other contestant and I just really don't like her.

Agree the next people to go in order are Adam, Krishnan and then one of the Angelas.

Mrsjayy · 29/10/2023 12:32

Angela is 79 I get she isn't for everyone,
but the dances are always choreographed to abilities so of course she won't be thrown about like Ellie To not like her because she's old is a bit naff

Gothambutnotahamster · 29/10/2023 12:37

I agree @Mrsjayy - plus I think she is fab!

EvilRingahBitch · 29/10/2023 12:38

I didn't mind Angela R's Charleston having a little sit down section. It was well executed with a bit of joie de vivre and it's not against the rules. It wasn't pure faffing abaht. Charles and Bill's street dance CCs both had significant seated sections and they were excellent.

Stroopwaffels · 29/10/2023 12:42

I don't dislike her because she is old. I dislike her because she is clearly a favourite with the judges and in their eyes can do no wrong. I dislike her twee little "knickers" when things goes wrong as if she's swearing like a docker. I dislike that she has loads of dance experience. I dislike that she has been given preferential treatment by the producers by getting to week 6 and avoiding samba/jive/salsa etc.

And I don't like Kai's teeth.
