Who will go next week?

So Caroline left this week and we all saw it coming. Not sure if Maisie has the public vote thou often if 2 weeks on a row in the dance off the public votes for them

If Clara has another bad week she might drop in and JJ possibly. Bill is flying high currently and wonder if he will breeze into the final without being in a dance off?

I pondered over Ranvir, but ended up voting JJ. Can't remember what dance he's got next week but I think he's now the weakest dancer.

I voted JJ, purely because he's the weakest dancer left at the moment.

It's anyone's game this year.

Maisie's a good all rounder but hasn't got the public vote.
HRVY is stronger in the latin but may strengthen on his ballroom.
Ranvir has potential but doesn't seem as relaxed dancing as Clara, both new to dancing, both doing well.
Bill, also a non dancer is on an upward trajectory. Hopefully he'll manage the faster latins.
Jamie's done well in latin, but but will he manage to match HRVY in the battle of the ballroom dances? Both seem to prefer a more freestyle dance.
Not to mention the dreaded viral input. If any test positive they're out - regardless of how good they are.

If another couple gets dropped re covid positive then that throws a spanner in the cogs! surely it would be a no dance off Saturday? We are down a couple re Katya/Nicola

Another factor that hasn't raised it's head this year is injury. A few years ago there was a season where it seemed that dancers were being carted off in droves due to injury

oh yes Id forgotten this, we haven't had a "By Week" re injury to celeb or pro dancer! Is this due to less hours training?
Less stress or hours allowed to practise with re gym/dance halls guidelines?
Maybe everyone is just fitter?? omg have we jinxed a pair now?

I, reluctantly, have voted for JJ. I just feel he is now the weakest dancer left in. That is not to say he is a poor dancer but more to do with the high standard this year. If he can pull out a top dance he may yet avoid the chop. He's dancing in a kilt this week so Shirley will save him in thedance off providing she hasn't fainted.

I'm with C.C (also reluctantly as I love tryers). Just the way it falls, he' s about the weakest.

This is the stage of the competition where I have my annual bleat of:

Why do any of them have to go?  Just make it cummalative combined scores of judges and p ublic, highest three/four (however many it is in any given year) on the scoreboard in the penultimate week go through to the final.  This way they all get equal chance to learn all the dances and go thrugh the same j ourney. Bish bash bosh  Bingo bango bongo. Bla bla bla bla bla...

Here endeth this p ublic service announcement for this year.  But I'll be back just as tediously next year - so don't get complacent!

(All of which means I haven't voted..)
