Strictly Come Dancing **inc spoilers**

[mandymouse]

Is anyone watching Strictly Come Dancing, it kind of crosses over with the X-Factor (which I know a lot of people on here watch). Anyway I haven't got into this years X-Factor, but I love SCD. Finally, last night Fiona Phillips was voted off, I usually like her on GMTV, but she has driven me mad on this, as she always has an answer for everything, I thought she may have had the Julian Clarey Underdog Vote this year (cos lets face it she has done well considering she's never danced before) but her talking back drove me bonkers. Anyway has anyone got any favourites yet ?? I think my vote is between Darren Gough and Zoe Ball. It's been a great competition so far and I even try to catch the SCD - It Takes Two in the week.

We've been watching X-Factor and SCD, hehe. We tend to watch SCD and then switch over to ITV for the end of X-Factor as we prefer SCD.

I also really like Darren and Zoe! I would probably say that Darren Gough is my favourite at the moment, and it would be good if a male celebrity could win the competition this year, seeing as how women have won in the past two series. I think it's definitely much more difficult for the male celebrities, because they have to lead and generally can't fall back on "just looking pretty and being graceful"!

I think they definitely have more decent male celebrity dancers this year, though. They all seem to be making a good effort.

We're watching it. My favourite is Patsy Palmer, DH likes Darren Gough and eldest DD liked Fiona Phillips. Personally, I'm glad she got voted off - always seems a bit up herself to me.

I thought Zoe Ball looked really stiff and awkward last night - shows how much I know!

Now that the competition is getting more serious, who do you want to win?

My favourite is Darren Gough, he always looks like he is really enjoying it.

I know that Zoe Ball is probably the best dancer technically but I think she is taking it far more seriously than she's letting on - there were stories in the paper last week that she has hired another trainer for extra lessons.

I didn't want Will to leave SCD last night, I thought the bottom two would've been between James Martin and Bill Turnbill and hopefully James would've left. I think Zoe is brilliant, but I would love to see Darren win, for such a big guy he can't half move well

I think it will be close between colin and zoe.
I would love to see these in the final, would be great to watch, they are really good dancers.

I'd really like Darren to win! I think Zoe is technically very good, but I agree that she takes it a bit too seriously. Darren just has fun with it. And like I said before, it would also be nice for a male celebrity to win this year for a change, just to prove that men can dance too!

I love SCD. My youngest DD and I (5 nearly 6) love ooohing and aaahhing over the dresses!

My favourite would definitely be Darren, he seems to be really enjoying it and having fun which is what dancing should be about If not him I'd like to see Colin win because again he seems to be really enjoying himself.

However, of all the ones left my least favourite to win would have to be Zoe, don't know why but she's always got right up my nose!

Weren't Darren Gough's little boys wonderful doing their dancing ? They are so cute

Poor old Bill looked gutted to be leaving last night. I thought the dancing was great and Patsy is going to have to up her game if she's to stay in next week. I still think Zoe may win, but would love Darren to take 1st prize.

 

[Bonnie]

Are James and Camilla a couple yet?! I'm sure they must at least fancy each other; they look so comfortable together.

Poor Bill. I think Patsy will be next to go.

 

[Joanne UK]

It was in the papers a few weeks ago that James and Camilla are a couple.

I don't know why Patsy is so unpopular - I'll vote for her to stay this week as I would rather see James go. Overall though I want Darren to win.

I know Zoe Ball had alot of dance lessons when she was younger although she has never admitted it!!.....I know she has as I went to the same dance school!!. I dont think thats fair!!

 

[Verity Chambers]

I missed it last night . I want Darren to win.

 

[Madjock]

I missed it last night . I want Darren to win.

Me too, think I will have to start voting

 

[mandymouse]

It was a shame that Patsy went out tonight, I think James Martin should've gone, but he always seems to get saved - he must have a large fan base

 

[Bonnie]

I *loved* Colin and Erin tonight. I think they're actually my favourites at the moment. That first dance was fantastic.

 

[mandymouse]

I wonder who will go tonight ? Everyone's first dance was brilliant and their second one wasn't as good

 

[mandymouse]

I'm really pleased that Darren, Colin & Zoe went through to the final (shame I'll miss it though)

 

[Joanne UK]

I really want Darren to win, although I think Colin is the best dancer. Darren is so enthusiastic, it's obvious he's really loving it.
