Strictly Becomes...,,,

[Zoophonic]

the latest competition to end in a farce this year. AJ pull out through injury and finalists down to 2. Covid rife through the behind the camera crew.

 

[S7DiscoDown]

I can't think of a bigger chance of catching it than dancing with some one 12hrs a day. That or they've been up to the 'strictly curse'

 

[TeaCider]

A shame, she was a really good dancer too.
I want Rose to win it, and I think she will, but it'll feel slightly hollow now.

 

[MolteniArcore]

Surely a farce would be if 2 of the 3 finalists pulled out but having 2 left in seems alright.

 

[Jedi boro]

To be fair if she’s done her ankle she can’t really dance can she. So not really COVID at all

 

[Lottowyn]

Rose is now the only woman who can win which she will do of course.

It'll be short odds for the double Rose and Emma though.

Cracking pair of pins on AJ

who said it was covid related? Some of the crew do have covid which is a separate issue.

Why don't they invite the best losing couple back to make it more of a contest?

 

[Legz]

It was mentioned earlier in week she was struggling and may not reach the final. It has happened before, the year Chris Hollins won (I think). Rose is my fave to win anyway. Her and Giovanni have been amazing, their show dance made me cry

Because with only one days notice they wouldnt have time to rehearse the routines ??

I think the fact people paid to vote last week might be an Issue as well as effectively they paid for nothing.

I think they will have stepped outside the 'bubble' since being voted off so probably not an option.

If the public vote for the couple they would like to see eliminated then that may be true but they vote for the couple they would like to save so that can’t be the case.

Either way it’s was a wasted vote. I’m just playing devils advocate aa these issues with paid phone votes can be a legal minefield.

Just to continue playing devil”s advocate Zorro Why would It be a wasted vote?. Who would have wasted their vote? A couple are eliminated by the judges not the public don’t forget.

It’s only a game show

In any case voting is free. BBC confirmed that they couldn’t replace AJ in time as Rhys and partner wouldn’t have had time to rehearse.

Rose looks a big favourite to win.

 

[Smoginexile]

I don't get it

 

[Jedi boro]

voting is free.

It’s not

Calls to the long (11-digit) number from landlines and mobiles cost 15p plus your network’s access charge. To vote from your mobile in the UK, please call the short (7-digit) number announced for your chosen couple. Calls from mobiles to the short (7-digit) number cost 15p per vote and should cost less than calling the long (11-digit) number from your mobile so please, if you can, dial the short (7-digit) number from your mobile. You cannot text and you cannot dial the short (7-digit) number from a landline.
