December 4, 20186 yr I hadn’t even noticed her disability in the last few weeks so don’t even go there. Ashley has no personality and that’s why no one has voted for her. Lauren to win <3 don't even go W H E R E? you went there - i didn't say she couldn't dance because she's disabled, she can't dance because she doesn't have rhythm. jonnie peacock was an amazing dancer & he danced with a blade on so. kinda gross that you went there.
December 4, 20186 yr Its not really a joke - the show is teaching celebs how to dance. If they can already dance then what's the point of rooting for them? Ashley can dance, has always been able to dance and there in lays the problem. Same with Faye; however I don't think there is a backlash there as she has been (most of the time) been below Ashley on the leaderboard. Lauren will no doubt be out come the weekend; even if as reports are saying they are topping the votes, it is unlikely she will avoid the dance off due there being only 5 left. Also how does having AJ mean she has votes? Anton is by far the most popular, identifiable Pro with the public and he went out first with Susannah and has never won ah, but that's where you're wrong & it's a common misconception - it doesn't claim to be a show that teaches celebs how to dance. all in, it's a dance competition & should rightly find the best dancer. i mean, it doesn't + it stems off into a popularity contest but that's reality tv for you. if that were the only case, why do you think so many celebs with dance backgrounds are allowed to participate? Anton may be popular with the older viewer but that has never crossed over in to votes, AJ is by far the most popular with the younger viewers.. those most likely to give their 3 free votes away online. i'll be glad to see her go, anyway - nice girl or not, with her dancing ability, she should not be in the semi finals or the finals.

Actually its an entertainment show - that's a common misconception that its a dance competition. As the public are involved and can vote through via personality, dance, coupling or however they wish, it isn't and never has been a dance competition. Also the viewship of SCD skews more towards the older viewer than the younger. However overall I think who a celeb's pro actually translates into little in terms of votes, if it did then Susannah would've survived longer than she did. Its down to the partnership in question and how that comes across to the viewers Edited December 4, 20186 yr by ElectroBoy

Its down to the partnership in question and how that comes across to the viewers there’s a winner at the end - it’s a competiton. if it was down to the partnership then ashley wouldn’t be in the bottom because her partnership with pasha is great. you’ve just said yourself that you think it’s a personality contest.. lauren is riding on AJ’s personality.
December 4, 20186 yr Dunno about anyone else so far, but Stacey is finally doing a Charleston :wub: Alongside a Viennese Waltz.

I can't be arsed to argue, so I'll agree to disagree :) As the public are involved and can vote through via personality, dance, coupling or however they wish And I didn't say it was explicitly about personality, just pointing out that (unlike the view you posted) it isn't just down to either the celeb or the pro they're given.

December 4, 20186 yr Lol. Kye is right, Lauren has zero personality and very little ability to dance. She's been skating through for weeks of scores 10+ below the leaders, yet somehow gets a pass because of AJ's personality. I don't even think they have great chemistry, Mollie also couldn't dance last year but he bounced off her a lot better than he does with Lauren. Full list of dances: Ashley and Pasha - Paso Doble to "Spectrum (Say My Name)" (Florence + the Machine) / American Smooth to "Ain't That a Kick in the Head" (Dean Martin) Faye and Giovanni - Samba to "I Go to Rio" (Pablo Cruise) / Argentine Tango to "La Cumparsita" (Machiko Ozawa) Joe and Dianne - Argentine Tango to "Red Right Hand" (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds) / Viennese Waltz to "This Year's Love" (David Gray) Lauren and AJ - Samba to "Rock the Boat" (The Hues Corporation) / Tango to "Nutbush City Limits" (Tina Turner) Stacey and Kevin - Charleston to "Five Foot Two Eyes of Blue" (Spike Jones) / Viennese Waltz to "You're My World" (Cilla Black) So two Argentine Tangos and Ashley is doing neither of them :( Hopefully it shows up Joe's multitude of flaws though
December 4, 20186 yr So two Argentine Tangos and Ashley is doing neither of them :( Hopefully it shows up Joe's multitude of flaws though I'm sure he'll get an obligatory 10 from Bruno regardless
December 4, 20186 yr Author FAYE IS DOING AN ARGENTINE TANGO :wub: So this COULD potentially be the dance of the entire series if they nail it!
December 4, 20186 yr On paper both Joe and Lauren have got awful dances for them, but I'm sure they'll spaff over Joe anyway :lol:
December 8, 20186 yr I know I say his scores are ridiculous every week, but a f***ing EIGHT for doing the wrong dance? :lol: I'm hoping it can be him and Ashley bottom 2 (not that I want Ashley bottom 2) so he can go, but a Lauren samba could be as bad as Mollie's last year tbh so I'm not holding out hope. He's definitely going to get shown up by a Faye AT though! Stacey's Charleston was brilliant but her VW was lacking just a bit, shame, I really wanted her to get that 40 before the final and I thought her Charleston was gonna do it if Craig wasn't SO picky :/ EDIT: What the flying f*** was that Argentine Tango from Joe? :rofl: Good god. Craig is the only one with any sense around him.
December 8, 20186 yr Oh I loved Ashley's American Smooth! A really deserved 40, I hope with her being joint top of the leaderboard that she can avoid the bottom two again - which makes me think Craig "only" gave Faye a 9 so that they were equal
December 8, 20186 yr I'm torn on this elimination, because Lauren's samba was absolutely woeful but I think in a dance-off of her Tango vs either of Joe's dances, she would easily deserve to stay. I think it's going to be close enough that she's toast though, I'm not convinced Joe will even be in the bottom 2 :lol: I really just want Joe gone though, at his best he is better than Lauren but his fans are just abysmal and I still think with a bottom 2 boost, he could win this.
December 8, 20186 yr Jesus wept :rofl: :manson: https://twitter.com/PointlessBlog/status/1071504570688393217
December 8, 20186 yr Author Jesus wept :rofl: :manson: https://twitter.com/PointlessBlog/status/1071504570688393217 I swear to GOD if he wins over Stacey :manson:
December 8, 20186 yr Each to their own and all that, support your fave, but f***ing IMAGINE spending £100 on voting for someone who can barely dance to get through in a DANCING competition. I know that's only a few replies to one tweet but he's got a huge fanbase and it'd be an absolute joke if he ran away with it because of idiots racking up a phone bill because he's "fit" or whatever shite. I wouldn't mind if he was any good, but he's barely better than Lauren in general!! I keep saying about the Ashley saga "imagine getting this worked up about a dancing show" yet here I am :rofl: It is just ridiculous though when you have dancers like Ashley and Faye, and someone who's improved like Stacey, and then someone could win because he somehow has a fanbase because of Youtube. I know it's always been a bit of a popularity contest, but he would be the worst dancer to win since Chris Hollins, quite easily.
