How did Danny Houdini get through that? He completely messed up, more than I’ve seen in the last few series, so wow, he must have a good fan base.

Charles has scored higher than Ranj across the series but I would have thought Ranj would have had a sizable fan base with all the This Morning mob behind hi,. Danny is very well known for Red Dwarf so could pull in a fan vote from there.

Is Red Dwarf still a thing? I would have thought that fan base was rather past it. Like myself 😂

I wonder why Craig saved Ranj over Charles? I usually agree with Craig actually so interesting the other three disagreed.

The right one left. It will be difficult in a couple of weeks as there are quite a few decent dancers this year. Very difficult to call it. Still think Joe and maybe Stacey.

Here we go:
Danny & Amy vs Graeme & Oti
Leaving Danny & Amy
Can't say I disagree with the result - but suspect the negative press stories didn't help

Yes I saw something on Facebook about Danny and Amy having an argument, her crying, him being accused of bullying. Sounds very iffy.

I must say I don't think Danny has come across particularly well in this series. He's not struck me as someone who would be particularly nice. And that was before the press stories this week too.

Same, same. You know when you just don't warm to someone on first sight? and then nothing about him (on interviews VTs etc) did anything to alter that. This board was the first I'd heard of any stories, but it doesn't surprise me. And he certainly wasn't as good a dancer as he clearly thought he was! |

But Graeme's dance off was a mess. I simply don’t get that one. Not that I like Danny much but I thought he improved that dance off performance.

Yes, I agreed with Craig - Danny is far the better dancer, but as others have said it isn't really a dance competition but a popularity contest and I always thought from the start that Danny was "tricky".
Amy is probably relieved she doesn't have to spend another week in the rehearsal studio with him!

Given the press surrounding Danny - whether it be completely true, an exaggeration or completely fabricated - I can't help but think that the BBC are glad to be rid of someone who could tarnish the brand (particularly as Seann staying longer than he should after kiss-gate really didn't help the show)

I actually thought it may have been Lauren and AJ.
If Charles and Kern were in the dance off again after that performance I would have said the show was rigged.

It should have been Lauren - she was by far the weakest dancer of the evening.

I voted for Lauren because I thought she had been undermarked . That Argentine tango stuff is hard and Graeme was just trotting around the room. Sorry to lose Kate, again she had that AG in previous week and it was v tricky. But her dance this week was too safe.

AJ and Lauren did the worse dance but I could see them getting a lot of public votes plus they had scored higher than Kate for the last few weeks.
With Charles having two great weeks is he now a legit contender, I don't see it quite.
The bookies still have Stacey and Joe as favourites over Ashley and Faye so those 4 would look likely finalists.
Graeme and Charles don't seem to have the support that Lauren has so could go before her.

Oti was fabulous in the Trolley Song but Graeme looked completely out of place. By far the worst dancer of the night, but not as dull as Faye.

He's not the best dancer by far, but I can see Joe winning this year. He's very likeable, has shown great progress and if his social media followers all vote, the others don't stand a chance.

It doesn't seem fair that someone does a hard dance and so gets marked down and then someone does an easy dance and gets high marks. I love the couple's choice dances but they seem to be very highly marked so help the couple get through that week. |

I agree Nick. I suppose they don’t want the couple's choice to be doomed. And maybe they get extra help with the choreography.

I'm usually completely a dance purist, but I haven't warmed to any of the really good dancers this year, whereas I think Graeme & Oti's partnership is brilliant (anyone feeling a bit down should watch their carpool karaoke Instagram stories!) and I also really like Lauren (plus AJ isn't irritating me this year for the first time ever!), so I have been voting for both of those partnerships and am delighted they are still in!
I liked Kate as well but she wasn't really improving.

Not 100% confirmed
