Strictly Come Dancing 2016

Daisy did nothing to change my thought's after dancing. Scores, betting and comments here - https://www.olbg.com/blogs/post.php?id=411905

I can't see her being on the bus to Blackpool, but it will depend on who she's up against if she's in the dance off of course!

Daisy's still my choice to leave though.
Who do to you think with be the 7th to go?

"Oh noes...my source is down!" You mean the Digital Spy forums like everyone else!? CHANCER!!

Some weirdos getting their kicks on Twitter with lots of fake spoilers over the last few weeks. This week apparently Ore Oduba lost to Judge Rinder 3-1.

The real result was Daisy out losing to Greg. Six female celebs in a row gone. Cull of male celebs in the next few weeks with Claudia in danger though.

Dances and Songs for Blackpool have been announced -


Claudia and AJ will be dancing the Jive to ‘Hey Mickey’ by Toni Basil
Danny and Oti will be dancing the Charleston to ‘Puttin’ On The Ritz’ by Gregory Porter
Ed and Katya will be dancing the Jive to 'Great Balls of Fire’ by Jerry Lee Lewis
Greg and Natalie will be dancing the Quickstep to ‘Hand Jive’ by Sha Na Na
Judge Rinder and Oksana will be dancing the Salsa to ‘Spice Up Your Life’ by Spice Girls
Louise and Kevin will be dancing the Paso Doble to ‘Explosive’ by Bond
Ore and Joanne will be dancing the Viennese Waltz to ‘That’s Life’ by Frank Sinatra

Ed is flying into the routine playing the piano to Great Balls of Fire! He's not going to get the Jive action, but I don't think the public will care again. Rinders doing the Salsa and will probably be the one to leave for me this week.

Any thoughts?

If the weight of money is anything to go by it's Ed and Greg in danger. Has the joke worn thin enough that Ed's in danger? I thought it would have by now but no, I think he's bizarrely safe and he can still survive a couple of weeks. Who's in danger then? It's probably one of Greg, Judge Rinder and...Claudia. Ore's been in the dance-off before so it's someone else's turn before it gets serious in the next couple of weeks.

Judge Rinder narrowly ahead of Greg as to who's out this week betting in-running.

Odds from bet365:

Robert Rinder 13/8
Greg Rutherford 7/4
Ed Balls 3/1
Claudia Fragapane 14/1
Ore Oduba 14/1
Louise Redknapp 40/1
Danny Mac 100/1

Hmmm. Virtually no change from the pre-show odds apart from Ore, Louise and Danny lengthening.

Final scorecard for this week's dances:

Danny 40
Louise/Ore 38
Claudia 36
Judge Rinder 33
Greg 32
Ed 23

Updated odds from bet365:

Greg Rutherford 6/5
Ed Balls 5/2
Robert Rinder 5/2
Claudia Fragapane 12/1
Ore Oduba 18/1
Louise Redknapp 66/1
Danny Mac 100/1

No idea what's going to happen...I can't imagine Ed not topping the vote again but who knows how it'll be manipulated as to when he does go? Claudia down to 12/1? Someone's taking a nibble.

Some were completely overscored tonight which is bound to affect the bottom two. Thoughts and scores here - https://www.olbg.com/blogs/post.php?id=411935

The bookies have it right for me, Greg and Rinder in the bottom two. Rinder didnt change my opinion and even though he scored a point more, I think it will be him that leaves.

Greg out after losing the dance-off to...Claudia. Ugh.

Danny and Louise (Claudia may as well go home the way that most people react to Louise) are your top two with everyone else dancing to get into the final three as if we didn't already know that.

[garlicsauce]

A hard one to call this week. We know who should go on dance ability, but I think it will be a shock dance off between Ore and Claudia. Thoughts here - https://www.olbg.com/blogs/post.php?id=411960

For once, I haven't bothered looking at the DS forums for the week's spoiler but if you looked at the outright odds then you'll find out for yourself who's gone.

Some fans aren't happy in how the scoring's going.

Who's going to win this!? Danny, Louise or somebody else?

A Louise Redknapp win would marginally justify her ability as a media presence and any hiring of her as a presenter by the BBC. Prior to "SCD" she was vilified for being 'wooden' and 'not very good'...and this was next to the likes of Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer who jumped ship over to Channel 4.

A Danny Mac win would be another one for the "Nobody's really heard of 'em and probably never will again" brigade...anyone remember Tom Chambers!? Danny got the second 40 this series with a samba and the first ever awarded for one as well. On perceived ability alone? It's Danny's to lose (you may prefer Louise) but how rabid is that "Hollyoaks" fanbase!?

Any of the others would be a big surprise.

[stereoman]

Huh. It was Judge Rinder who was in the bottom two with Ed Balls? An ego-boosting if not surprising 4-0 vote to save RInder instead.

Elimination odds for tonight...



I think Judge Rinder is as good as gone as the remaining four kind of provides the most PC four left.

Updated outright winner odds...
