I think I'm ready for it to be done because it just feels so meh this year and I think the early high scores played a part in that. Some early dances did deserve high scores but after they got the first one it was like the scores weren't allowed dip back down again for dances that weren't great. It makes it feel like everyone is on the same level when they clearly aren't. The scoring hasn't been great at all this year.I'm kinda ready to skip to the final and get this one over and done with now - the WC is screwing up the schedules and it's never that interesting in Musicals Week with only 6 celebs.
It really has just been such a meh series with bizarre scoring. I missed last night's show and will also miss the next show on Friday and frankly I don't feel that sad about it. I've given the show a lot of chances over the last few years to improve on the scoring/production/casting and they haven't - I'm giving them next year to change it and if they don't, then 2023 will likely be my last Strictly.I think I'm ready for it to be done because it just feels so meh this year and I think the early high scores played a part in that.

I think I watched three or four results shows this year and I haven't watched any more. I just watched tonight's pro dance on youtube and all I can say is I feel like the pro's are being wasted. Too many of the pro dances are that style now and a lot of the pro's don't suit it because they're not trained in it. If what is being said about Jason Gilkinson's input is true I'd be surprised if the pro's are even allowed to choreograph a full routine without him sticking his oar in. It's become too over-produced now and it's not working.It really has just been such a meh series with bizarre scoring.

I didn’t want to check here in case of unspoilered spoilers, but the epg was bonkersI wouldn't have known it was on so early if I hadn't read it here . So thankyou whoever it was mentioned it
Shirley not taking any grief about the scoringI think I'm ready for it to be done because it just feels so meh this year and I think the early high scores played a part in that.

She wouldn't though, that's the kind of answer I'd expect from any of the judges.Shirley not taking any grief about the scoring

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU OVERMARK WILL MELLOR AND HAMZA YASSIN AND YOU UNDERMARK MOLLY RAINFORD AND FLEUR EAST!
I thought it was so cruelI felt so sorry for Molly. Usual protocol dictates that if you were in the DO the previous week but had escaped this time you are called if not first then in the first batch … not left to the end looking like you want to be sick.
If I was going to be a conspiracy theorist (because Strictly attracts a surprising number of conspiracy theorists) I’d say that production were trying to push Ellie into a bit of a comedy act role/we don’t care about her succeeding role and in order to do that to a gorgeous former model, you have to bring out Vicky Gill’s worst crimes against fabric.Aw Ellie and JoJo. It’s weird, they just came up the outside lane, quietly getting better while the focus was on others. I genuinely think they’ll be friends for life.
I was looking at her outfit while they were talking, it was absolutely howling. The split in her skirt was at two different lengths and it looked like a cut off of Helen’s samba dress.
Thanks Lenny. It looks like I won’t be able to vote on Friday. I’ll watch on catch up once am back at the hotel.So just a wee reminder the QF is on at 8pm on Friday 2 December and according to the Sky planner, the results are on at 5.40pm on Saturday 3 December (before the football)
Both shows BBC1

It seemed particularly cruel to not call her first!! She looked ill!Poor Molly, you could almost see her heart pounding, she was sure they were in the dance off again.
Delighted for them.
oooo! i worry for molly with a charleston as her ccc was already so charleston inspired and the coolness of that theming is already gone for her.I don't know why Shirley is getting involved with random fans on Twitter who didn't even tag her. Don't do a Jayde!
Will be interesting to see who of Fleur or Molly gets the better dance draw this week: (from DS):
Fleur and Vito have: Foxtrot, Quickstep, Tango / Charleston, Paso Doble
Molly and Carlos have: American Smooth, Viennese Waltz / Charleston, Paso Doble, Salsa
I'm gonna say Fleur = Quickstep, and Molly Charleston.
Hasn't Molly already done a Charleston?? Or am I confused...I don't know why Shirley is getting involved with random fans on Twitter who didn't even tag her. Don't do a Jayde!

No, I guess you're thinking of her legendary CC! neither of them has done one yet..Hasn't Molly already done a Charleston?? Or am I confused...
her cha cha cha was VERY charleston with a cool sort of flapper 1920s theme so you’re probably thinking of that (i did the same!)Hasn't Molly already done a Charleston?? Or am I confused...
I was utterly indifferent to their dances, but that leaving speech had me in BITS!Nah Ellie and Johannes are too much. What a pair of absolute sweethearts
