The Facebook group that I’ve been on but nearly leaving for sometime is just wall to wall ‘Will is the best ever Fleur should’ve gone home she’s awful/arrogant/kicked my puppy/etc’.

It’s really crazy, it’s always close at SF point (Rhys and John last year anyone?) but also even if you feel wronged, spouting loads of personal abuse on social media is just pointless and mean.



You can also screen record if you have an iPhone (and probably on android too I’m guessing)

Let me guess. Was it the BBC's Woke agenda?

I don’t understand why people are focussing on a mistake as meaning that Fleur absolutely should have gone rather than Will. As it happens I didn’t much like Fleur’s Charleston and I think she danced it better first time around, but even with a mistake it’s not impossible that one person could put forward an overall better execution of more complex choreography than their dance-off opponent.

Imagine a hypothetical dance-off between Ashley Roberts & Anne Widdicombe, in which Ashley fluffs the dismount from a lift but Anne hits every step of her choreography - who would you choose to go through?

(For those who haven’t blissfully blanked her from memory, Anne W was regularly baffled to receive criticism from the judges as she was, in her own words, ‘step perfect’ and therefore believed she had executed the dance perfectly. But of course, there’s more to dancing well than simply not missing a step.)

Yes. His dance were bloody awful last week. He deserved to go.

🥺🥺🥺 he’s adorable, I think he is going to be on our screens a lot more after Strictly.

We have a Robin that comes and sees us every morning and I’m sure it’s my dad! I know that kind of stuff is personal belief but it brings me so much comfort. Sorry that was a Jayde style merail, it’s tough at this time of year.

There is something very special about a robin x

BIB - Yes, exactly this!

I was imagining a fictional DO whereby Hamza performs his Salsa with one small error and Will performs a perfectly executed CC. Am I going to pick the dance that brought me joy and put a huge smile on my face or the dance that made me question whether life was worth living?

Are you meant to be stone cold objective? Maybe when judging the world championships. Or on an entertainment show, do you choose the dance that entertained you more?

Half the problem is the judges contradict themselves constantly.
 
Just caught up with the morning's news - can't believe that Karen's former partner is whinging about Helen's confidence storyline. Just admit it love - you're jealous that Helen is more popular with SCD voters than you.

I wonder if Karen will be reunited with her partner in the final or if she will just not show up.

Exactly. Anton scored Will and Fleur the same, even though they were poles apart, even according to his own feedback. Him scoring them both the same doesn't make them equal. It means his scoring was completely at random.

To be fair to Anton (helllpppp meeee) I think he did struggle with the decision and if the lift stumble was the deciding factor for him, that’s fair enough. Doesn’t mean that I think he was right, or that Fleur should have gone just that at least he was basing his decision on something tangible,

Because I had to suffer it so YOU ALL DO!

This pic looks like she's forcing him to dance with mad eyed telekinesis.

Honestly, the fact that Will fans are still slagging Fleur in her own mentions and in the BBC posts she's tagged in makes me furious. The Strictly insta posts about the final 4 couples and the dance choices are dumpster fires of rage, often from people with #bekind in their bios. (I slag off eg Mardy here but have never made negative comments about him or any contestant on insta or Twitter because why bring that negativity out into the world where they'll see it, and ultimately Will is fine and we've had a good laugh about him here).

Now I hope Fleur and Vito just go for it and do a showdance live sex show in a vat of spaghetti, complete with Vito in bucket hat and Fleur in AJ's showdance dress, because whatever they do people will fume, apparently!

(also I went back and rewatched their DO dance and the error is a small stumble coming out of the second, difficult, lift. You'd think she'd faceplanted and shat herself).

This honestly makes me so sad and mad. I'm sure Fleur is social media savvy and doesn't read the comments. 😡

Oh yes I agree that he was correct to pick out the error in the DO, but the initial scores, from what I remember, he hardly had a good thing to say about Wills Paso, yet gave him a high score, then threw 10's around like confetti and then said ' I scored both the same'

Wonder if she'll do a Joe McFadden and not turn up to strictly ever again because of a strop.

It looked like Anton was actually about to launch into praise of it until Shirley tore it limb from limb: he clears his throat and says 'Well!' twice at the start, as he clearly realises he'll look a fool if he praises it to the hilt after her savaging. So he says lots of random things about it, agrees with Shirley that it could be improved, and throws in a bit of technical critique, then gives it a 9 anyway! So people pretending that Anton is some keen of eagle-eyed dance savant are on smack.

Kym is in rehearsal which is great! I'd have hated her to miss out after missing a week too.
