Alexandra remains my favorite, but I could also live with Joe making it. If Katya manages to maintain her standard in the freestyle, that might seal the deal already.

I've read rumors that Shirley's contract will not be renewed, but that might as well be wishful thinking from some haters. We'll see.

Songs and dances for tonight as revealed so far (the final routines will only be announced during the show):



The Judges' Pick


  • Debbie McGee and Giovanni Pernice will perform a Salsa to Can't Take My Eyes Off You by Boys Town Gang
  • Alexandra Burke and Gorka Marquez American Smooth to Wouldn't It Be Lovely from My Fair Lady
  • Joe McFadden and Katya Jones will Viennese Waltz to Somewhere My Love from Dr Zhivago
  • Gemma Atkinson and Aljaz Skorjanec dance the Paso Doble to Viva La Vida by Coldplay


Showdance


  • Debbie McGee and Giovanni Pernice will Showdance to One Day I'll Fly Away by Vaults
  • Alexandra Burke and Gorka Marquez will Showdance to There’s No Business Like Showbusiness by Ethel Merman
  • Joe McFadden and Katya Jones Showdance to You Make My Dreams by Hall & Oates
  • Gemma Atkinson and Aljaz Skorjanec Showdance to Show Me How You Burlesque by Christina Aguilera


This is the 'final' finale- the dance show year is almost over... Crying

And the winners are... Joe and Katya! I was almost sure they'd make it after watching the freestyle round. Debbie did some ballet- not memorable. Alexandra offered more, but there was no real story-line. Gemma out-danced her tonight- sexier, livelier, the best I've ever seen her. And then Joe showed how fairy tales come true. It was all there- the story, the dancing, the partnering. Well done Katya! I thought she had it in her and she did not disappoint.

For the firs time I didn't enjoy Alexandra's dancing. In one she reminded me of a spider, all flailing arms and legs. Gemma was a joy but Joe and Katya are befitting winners.


I do like the way Strictly handles the crowning of the winner. No slotting the three runners up as second, third, fourth, just the winner and the runners up. I wish DWTS would follow suit.


Lots if rumours abound about Shirley Ballas. I have heard she herself is considering not returning as she is missing her family too much. She generated a lot of positivity on sm when she stood and applauded all four finalists.

I think Shirley did a good job in her first series. Always kind, positive, and encouraging; pointing out details that went well. Maybe a tad to enthusiastic with her scores here and there- mostly on the same page with Bruno, but Craig was always there to balance that. I also noticed Shirley and Darcey got along just fine, even hugging each other on various occasions. I'd miss her if she wouldn't return. Why not fly back and forth with Bruno to see her family during the week?
Joe and Katya showed no weakness and won it with the freestyle imo. I've said it before: Katya was the most creative choreographer all season. Alexandra was first to admit Joe deserved the win. I never found her selfish or arrogant. Her American Smooth and Jive were fantastic, just Gorka's concept for the freestyle fell flat in comparison with Katya's- not her fault. She was the most fascinating performer all season. Gemma was maybe the most improved out of all finalists. I enjoyed to watch her grow over the season, and she had a strong finish. Debbie started great, but her ballet attitude got tiring at some point, and Giovanni didn't push her beyond that.
I'm happy for Joe, but even more for Katya. She was so overwhelmed she couldn't even speak. Remember it was this little firecracker who pushed Ed Balls the non-dancer straight to week ten last year, and that was her first season!

Oti's husband Marius. He is part of Strictly's troupe (if that's what they're called on Strictly).

Found this on my Strictly FB group this a.m. 
Just read that four female pros are facing the axe .. the press reckons that at least one of these four will definitely be out this year ... Amy , Dianne , Chloe and Katya !!!!! Really like Dianne and Chloe they are my fave females ????

This is why I do FB; tidbits of info unavailable elsewhere.

I hope this is just a rumor. Last year Joanne, Natalie, and Oksana did not return. Amy and Dianne made their debut to replace them. Chloe and Katya joined just one year earlier, but while Katya won her second season, Chloe never got a celeb so far. So maybe she's considering to leave. I would be devastated to see Katya leave, and I'd love to see more from Amy and Dianne.
They should leave the females alone and rather get rid of Brendan.

She's won quite a few titles with her former pro partner, no other than AJ. He got his chance on the show, she didn't. As I said, I'm not surprised.
