Nicest person won...best dancer didn't!
What, all three of them win together?Why are Dianne fans so salty about Jowita? I've noticed it before and can't understand what it could possibly be based on other than Jowita perhaps daring to be shorter.

Could depend when it was filmed. Karen looked panic-stricken at times last night and Luba was definitely a human shield! But Jayde isn’t backwards in coming forwards so I’m sure if she has something to say, she’ll say it especially now the series has finishedCan I ask, I watched the Strictly Weakest Link before the final and Jayde and Karen were both on it. Almost everyone voted Karen off first round as she was the WL but Jayde said she could never EVER do that, so voted for someone else. Is Jayde more fond of Karen than Karen is of Jayde?

not to me eitherIt didn’t look very angry To me
fully agree with all of thisI totally get Gorka’s disappointment. It’s his third final, he’s had amazing dancers before but never one who has connected with the public like Helen has. He thought this was his shot after being there so long. He’s a fan favourite and he is an incredible choreographer. It really was a two horse race between Helen and Hamza (unfairly because Molly and Fleur are amazing) so he did have a real shot! Then with them being higher on the leaderboard than Hamza he maybe thought it was a foregone conclusion. He’s the oldest pro left standing the other 3 were in their first year, he’s a huge social media following. This is his profession, it’s like when you see someone at the Olympics not coming first they’re gutted it doesn’t make them unhappy for the winner but they’re gutted for themselves.
Being a gifted dancer is amazing but it doesn’t necessarily mean a glittering career and he’s put his heart and soul in to this series. He’s the only pro left with a child who he clearly adores ans he’s had to leave her so much, it’s a huge sacrifice. I even think back to 2020 when he was in the final with Maisie and they had to bubble and he wasn’t allowed to see Gemma or Mia at all for months and he lost then too. It must sting.
He’s posted about Hamza and Jowita and he seems like a great guy so I’m sure he is delighted for them but gutted for himself.
Like I’ve said before judging by his reaction, Gemma’s reaction and the other pros I think this is him done now.
Arduino was involved in Hamzas showdance too, despite the Bafta I find him a boring choreographer.Yeah, I wasn't totally sure (also, can't watch the VT's yet), but I've seen lots of people attributing Rose's boring ass showdance to Gilkinson's influence, but I know Arduino actually choreographed it.
Am I wrong in thinking that Gilkinson has ultimate creative control over all of them and influences all of them? Or is that something people have assumed/made up because he choreographs all the shitty pro dances where they just walk/jump about and pose?
I would recommend avoiding the FB page of my local newspaper. Apparantly, you can only win Strictly if you're black.Had to have a bit of a rant at the DS posters (not that it will do any good, I know). They're acting like Hamza's dances were shite and he still won only because he's popular. Yes, he's popular, but he only had a wobble in the showdance, and he picked it straight back up again. His other dances were amazing. Know who else didn't have a good showdance? Their precious Helen and Gorka(And Molly).
How on earth could Dianne, Karen AND Nadiya all win next year?Why are Dianne fans so salty about Jowita? I've noticed it before and can't understand what it could possibly be based on other than Jowita perhaps daring to be shorter.

What a ridiculous thing to say - the last 5 winners have been whiteI would recommend avoiding the FB page of my local newspaper. Apparantly, you can only win Strictly if you're black.
I mean, they have a point. I'm wracking my brains trying to think of the last white winner
This is all i’ve seenI'll have to rewatch some of the dances later and taken them in properly - felt like last night flew by! the only one I missed was Mollly's showdance - watched it there and was a bit underwhelmed. I thought Prince was going to be iconic but the cane bit didn't really fit . The second track was better but hated the bloody Marigolds!
Hate the narrative that Helen was robbed I'm seeing on twitter - her own showdance was not great and her CC and Hamza's cancelled each other out for quality, plus his salsa and her jive are fairly even.
The only interesting bts stuff I saw this morning was a video of Fleur singing 'Sax' at the afterparty, with Helen and Molly on backing vocals! Apart from that, everyone being too discreet - I need to know who Vito was snogging!
4/20 winners of the show have been poc, what a load of shite.What a ridiculous thing to say - the last 5 winners have been white
I think it might be time to move.
Erm rose?I would recommend avoiding the FB page of my local newspaper. Apparantly, you can only win Strictly if you're black.

I really liked Arduino's choreography for the dance Nikita and Carlos did, but I didn't think much of Rose's showdance, or Couple's Choice.Arduino was involved in Hamzas showdance too, despite the Bafta I find him a boring choreographer.
My dearest wish (which won't happen!) is they clear out the whole Choreo team leave just the AT couple and maybe Beth.
The Pro dances have been dreadful this year and the dances choregraphed by the professional choreographers have been really weak, all the best dances this season have been choregraphed by the Pros. They need to give the Pros more control and freedom over the dances.
I really hope Neil moves back into the Pro choreo team, despite not shining with his celebs, the Pro dances were better when he was on the team.
I got your sarcasm WoolmerI would recommend avoiding the FB page of my local newspaper. Apparantly, you can only win Strictly if you're black.

I thought that Graz was trying to get a lift going but Hamza didn't seem to want lifted?Just looked back and my eagle eye spotted Vito being the first to run up to and hug Hamza to congratulate him. Vito was so happy for him and was smiling like he won!
#Hamzito
Ngl, was a bit disappointed that no one attempted to lift Hamza as well with Jowita. I reckon Graz and Kai would have been able to carry him on their shoulders. What's the use in posting all those topless photos of your muscular torso if you can't deliver when it matters? ...but I digress
I agree, but I don't think he's going to leave. I was just listening to Helen's 5live show and they had him phone in and were both in good spirits - they all had a laugh about Gorka's 'Joey Tribbiani face' and Gorka said that of course he's really happy for Hamza and Jowita, but as a pro, they just care so much and love their jobs so much that he was just disappointed for Helen and that he couldn't get her the last cherry on top of the cake. But he sounded fine reallyI totally get Gorka’s disappointment. It’s his third final, he’s had amazing dancers before but never one who has connected with the public like Helen has.
