Well after all the stuff from the government today Bill winning Strictly was the last straw for me. Can’t remember being so annoyed about something for a long time. It so should have been Maisie or HRVY. I’m very disappointed for them. Can’t see what anybody sees in him and what was the point of the guitar stuff that isn’t dancing

Bill wasn’t my favourite, can’t complain though as I never vote. Do agree, time for Motsi to move on from the panel.

Sorry Sparklefizz, I didn’t mean to upset you at all, you must be having a miserable time with your teeth, hope you feel better soon.

I think that the public vote for the person who they engage with, and perceive has made the greatest improvement over the series, not the person who is the best dancer necessarily.

I'm pleased that Bill won.

Didn't think he would but he was obviously popular and that's why he's won

It’s never just about the dancing, more who is popular but also who has worked really hard to constantly improve and takes the contest seriously.
Am pleased Bill won.?

They could let Motsi go, Bruno will be back next year and the show would work with just 3 judges as it did this year.

Charleygirl5 Sat 19-Dec-20 22:02:18

I agree 100% re Motsi and I think she should be replaced by Anton next year.

lemsip Sat 19-Dec-20 21:39:48

Maisie and Gorka were my choice to win,,,,,definitely not Bill. Happened to be in his suit to win!

Motsi should not be a judge on the show where her sister is a pro dancer!
I do realise it was a public vote tonight though!!

Charleygirl5 Sat 19-Dec-20 20:58:00

I thought anybody could have won tonight and Jamie had upped his game.

Bill to me looked very light on his feet- he did exceptionally well.

Well done to Bill and Oti, but - Bill's dancing is not in the same league as either HRVY's or Maisie's. Compared with theirs, his routines were not spectacular. Disappointed.

Oti's choreography was brilliant. From the first week Bill surprised lots of people. I was over the moon that he won it but agree that HRVY and Maisie's performances were good.

Lollin Sat 19-Dec-20 20:51:08

Bill! Yay! and I didn't dare to vote Go Bill and Oti!

I think Oti is very popular though.

Well, there’ll definitely pair her with a no-hoper next year.

With her winning last year, I'm sure they thought giving her Bill, the same wouldn't happen this year.

Puzzler Thank you very much for your lovely message.

Ellianne Sat 19-Dec-20 20:39:08

Just caught up. Oh no!!

ginny Sat 19-Dec-20 20:35:08

Bill was great but not the best of the dancers. Oh well, bigger disappointments than that today.

Bill got all my 6 votes this evening. I thought he was brilliant!

Puzzler61 Sat 19-Dec-20 20:30:20

Well done to Bill.
Commiserations Sparklefizz. I sympathise as I had a double tooth out 10 days ago after a lot of pain with an infected root.
Keep eating soft food to let it all heal, and do salt water rinses.
Puréed Christmas Turkey meal will still taste very nice - I mean it sincerely - (or whatever you are planning to have) ?

Millie22 Sat 19-Dec-20 20:29:04

Well I never. Poor Janette.

EllanVannin Sat 19-Dec-20 20:27:58

Camilla won it for me. What a lovely person.

Pittcity Sat 19-Dec-20 20:26:46

I loved them.

Kandinsky Sat 19-Dec-20 20:26:31

Yay! ?

WOODMOUSE49 Sat 19-Dec-20 20:26:31

Its a fix

How?

Well deserved win. Not just popular but a brilliant dancer too. Well done Bill. Not always had my vote but did tonight. Three excellent performances.

Nannylovesshopping Sat 19-Dec-20 20:24:08

I’m outraged?

Calendargirl Sat 19-Dec-20 20:24:05

I think Oti is very popular though.

Well, there’ll definitely pair her with a no-hoper next year.
