Ive almost fallen off my chair- Angela R is not doing 'lets face the music' with a revolving table!
Im worried unchained melody might be Annabels husbands favorite song and for that reason the judges might not feel they can judge harshly

Wow, yes,really thought they would go down the Morecambe and Wise route,maybe everyone is too young to remember it apart from Kai! They could have done a fun routine with Kai and Neil in bed🤣 This is just going to be dreary/twee and won’t make the most of the big bouncy ballroom floor. Bye,bye Angela.

I think (hope) boob boy with struggle with adapting to the bouncy floor.

Since it seems to be good dance choices for everyone else, there's a chance he could be out 🙏

I know they'll probably be happy to drop Angela R now, but I'm worried if they save his CC til the semis there might be no more opportunities to get him out. 😭

His CC is being left late in the day - this is why I'm not convinced he'll be out before the final.

The QS should be Nigel's comeback dance, but the CC could be Bobby's (well-timed) breakthrough dance.

I think Knobby is likely to be knocked out in the next few weeks and he won't get to do his tactical CC.

He's got shock elimination written all over him.

you’re absolutely right. the looming shadow of that CC makes me think we’ll see him in the final tbh. if it’s timed right.

however, if he gets to the final at the expense of (probably) layton i will absolutely riot. ellie and nigel are likely okay, but layton is in shaky territory.

They have to time it right though. Leave it too late if the momentum is behind someone else it’s hard to overcome … they found that out last year with Helen. By the time they had her hitting her stride it was far to late to overturn Hamza.
 
I’m convinced it’ll come down to a Bobby v Layton semi-final. My worry is if he has his CC in the semi, will they send him home on a dance dedicated to his dead mum or make up some ludicrous reason why his dance is better than Layton 😭 but realistically, if they judge fairly, there’s no way Layton should be knocked out by Bobby. Or Nigel really, even though I love him! I could see Ellie knocking Layton out because of ‘the journey’.. but I doubt she’ll be anywhere near the bottom two with the public..

I agree, Layton will determine who is in the final as he will end up in the bottom 2 due to lack of support and it is hard to see who will beat him. Ellie is the only one I can see doing so.
 
I'm so glad Ellie, Layton and Nigel all have good dances for Blackpool.

Annabell's will be a borefest.

I can't see Angela doing the AT justice and it's an odd choice of dance for Blackpool.

We all knew Rippon would get an American smooth, I think it might see her through to next week then she'll be sent packing with a terrible samba.

Weird that no one is doing a salsa or samba in Blackpool.

I'm praying for no gigantic prop coming down from the ceiling but it's Blackpool so we know some poor bugger will have to do it.

Are you joking me? They get Rippon to Blackpool, give her an American Smooth and don't do Let's face the music and dance!! You can't tell me it's a rights issue, as surely they'd give them to la Rippon. Unless they're too expensive and the show are not that invested now.

I don't know why Craig has been so full of praise for her. I imagine his production team already have a list of demands for the tour. She'll be getting judges treatment with private cars. No fun bus for her.

This is the scenario that I'm leaning towards. Motsi will not send Layton home, so it will be a split decision, and this could be where the shock elmination happens.

And seriously, I was just going to type...

"However, that being said, they did send Tom Fletcher home in the QF to a CC dedicated to his dead sister..."

Then remembered she wasn't bleeping dead! 😂

What does this even mean ?

Why are there so many conspiracy theories about Nigel and Layton but not one about the lovely Ellie .

So Nigel and Layton have TPTB orchestrating their every move but if the lovely Ellie makes the final its completely organic and purely down to Vito's talent.

Ive wanted and voted for Nigel, Ellie and Layton since week one but I'm thinking now a better final would be
Ellie, Bobby and Angela S or Annabelle just for the fact it would blow up with the tin foil brigade .

Ellie has the showmance ;) all carefully orchestrated by The Cunning Vito who sits twirling his moustache while he calls her ‘baby’ on Instagram and waits for the comments to roll in and the Daily Mail to pick it up.
Or something.
