Thanks! Why does everyone think she won’t come back? Also sorry if it’s already been discussed

I personally think it's stress/mental health related. I don't know if potential tensions between her & Gio would necessarily be the reason but wouldn't be shocked if they had a tough rehearsal day, got into an argument and that pushed her over the edge.

Personally I think we'll get a notice on the Strictly social media mid-week that Amanda has withdrawn.

I am going to be annoyed if we don't get the four person final that's needed this year. Bobby seems like a cert for the final and I would be really disappointed if any one of Nigel, Ellie and Layton missed out on a final spot.

It's not Amanda's fault if she has to withdraw but I don't like that the current system makes a celebrity responsible for a reduced number of final spots. When someone withdraws, I'd much rather that they treat it like a Week 1/2 situation and roll the scores over. The results show could easily be shrunk down by ten minutes and basically be another ITT with judges' chat etc. I'd take that over the mess that led to a two-person final a couple of years ago.

I think one of the very worst (from memory) examples of a good potential dancer being scuppered by a poor professional was Vick Hope and Graziano.
Graziano's early appearance and he made all her dances about him - terrible choreography.
He has obviously got so much better but I was actually surprised he was invited back.

There's definitely an adjustment period - never forget Giovanni and Laura's "congrats on your spins" 😂

If it's a 3 person final, I think there's an even higher chance of Bobby being flushed out in the semis, being bottom of the leaderboard there (he certainly won't surprass Ellie or Layton) is almost a dance off guarantee. I think it's happened seven times in a row now.

Ellie, Layton & Nigel for sure should be the top 3.
 
I'm really surprised that people think Eddie should have stayed instead of Zara. Yes he's got rhythm and is fun, but that's pretty much where it ends. He clearly doesn't have the technique and I thought his actual dancing (like the hip movements, footwork, smoothness, all that good stuff) was actually really poor. I do agree that Zara looked a bit stiff, but I think she's definitely the better dancer.

Also, who do we reckon will now be in the dance off next week alongside Zara? I think Annabel's going to be in trouble from now on 😶
