Una will be on The Late Late Show tonight in Ireland promoting The Voice.

The show has totally been engineered to ensure Caroline wins - the Samba being picked for Frankie & Kevin just cements it. They've pulled Frankie down for weeks to help Caroline get further in the votes with their OTT hype and favouritism. The samba is not the judges 'favourite' dance by F&K, so unfair especially since their pick for Caroline is her American Smooth, yep she tripped over but that's pretty much all that went wrong and they still heaped praise. Frankie's strength is ballroom yet her only ballroom dance is her Showdance - not going to be able to show her strengths to people voting just in the final compared to Caroline getting 3 strong dances :( are also opening the show too going by an interview on TV this morning, unfair given that she was near the start last week. How many times has Caroline opened the show? I hope the other dances chosen by the judges are fair and not in favour of anyone but I doubt that. Caroline must be lined up for some BBC presenting roles in the future, wouldn't surprise me given the way they're favouring her and manipulating it for her.

 

I actually think they've been subliminally favouring Frankie. I mean let's take the fact that they've partnered her with arguably the most popular Strictly professional dancer. Second of all, they wanted her last year and she was the FIRST celebrity to be announced in the line up this year (there have also been claims that the producers wanted her the most). Also, she was left until last on the opening show to receive her partner which tells us that the producers were trying to hyper her up the most.

 

In regards to the judges choosing the Samba, the Judges Choice dance are typically dances that the performer needs to improve upon or could've been done better had no mistakes been made (hense why they've given Caroline her American Smooth again). I have a theory that the reason why they've been moderately harsh with Frankie and restricted her scoring despite her dancing exceptionally is so she doesn't peak too early - there's no better place to peak than in the final, right? I honesty reckon that the judges have done Frankie a favour by awarding Caroline 40 for a less-than-perfect Salsa as it caused quite a backlash from people saying that it wasn't worthy of full marks however Frankie's Argentine Tango was; this would've caused people to pick up the phone and vote for Frankie. Now that Frankie is yet to score a perfect 40/40, the final will be her prime opportunity to do so and if she manages to do it then it'll be all the more spectacular (especially if it's for her show dance).

 

I have believed that Frankie has been the producers favourite from the start and I still do. Even if they were against Frankie, they haven't succeeded in doing anything about it, in fact they've failed miserably as Frankie and Kevin are the only couple not to have been n the Dance-Off.

 

:D :D :D :D idk I guess I'm just praying that she wins. :cry:

I don't think BBC have been favouring anyone to be honest. I think the judges have just been giving scores of what they liked - some of them clearly have favourites, and I don't always agree with their scores but I don't think BBC has an agenda, personally.

Same about the BBC. The judges definitely have favorites, though. But who are we to judge? We're as biased as them (in regards of Frankie). :lol:

Dancing off to the Samba won't get her any votes though. :( However, that might be a clever move and not the worst choice, despite what I thought at first. She could have been given the Salsa again, so in that way she's lucky. (I actually prefered her Salsa to her Samba if I'm honest, but that's another debate.) People said her Salsa was everything but a Salsa, and the comments on her Samba were usually that she actually had a decent and proper Samba for once (it doesn't happen a lot), but she messed it up. So maybe, in that regard, 'Samba' is a good choice as she will, hopefully, not f*** this up. :lol:

 

However, unlike Caroline, it was hardly a "Oh you made a mistake so I can't give you a 10", Craig literally said it was her worst dance. I doubt her dancing the routine right this time will change that to a 10...and if it does, then it's just ridiculous on Craig's part. Although, to be fair, it did give Caroline a 7 as well, so we'll see.

 

I know scores don't matter anymore in the final, but you just know everyone will be getting these 10s and Frankie will probably stick with 38 (9,9,10,10) or 39 if Darcey got the D before the show.

 

( It's still a shame she didn't get any ballroom as it is her forte. )

She is opening the show, apparently. I think if she nails the Samba (or at least improves), it could be a real crowd pleaser! :D

We don't even 100% know she's doing Samba do we?

Well she was seen dancing a Samba in the background of an interview Caroline did on some show and a picture of "Derek the Donkey" has been tweeted or shown or something like that by the BBC according to DigitalSpy so if she's not doing the Samba, somebody's recycling her props! :lol:

She said she completely hated the Samba, I doubt she'll be dancing it if she wasn't supposed to be performing it on Saturday.

Yassss Kevin, give her the D.

A Darcey 10 is comin' tbh

He looks so sneaky :lol: Kevin needs to be the girls new manager, he has given the Greatest Hits more promo than they did!

Yassss Kevin, give her the D.

 

A Darcey 10 is comin' tbh

Looking like he's planning to :lol:

The bbc don't need to have an agenda for someone to win. They aren't itv/x factor. And I believe the running order is done randomly. I actually rewatched the samba and apart from the mistakes she was really good so I hope they can iron that out.

omg!!!!! Una was just being interviewed on Irish TV and they showed a clip from when she entered the Irish Popstars (the one Nadine Coyle famously lied about her age) and it is GOLD!!!! Its the first time I've ever seen it and I cant even put into words how just utterly amazing it is
