I am puzzled as to why Holly was again in the bottom two. Also when they talk to the judges about the bottom two they say how marvelously she danced yet they consistently mark her below most of the others. Robbie Savage was just about the most unpopular footballer there was so who is voting for him each week. Maybe they are frightened he might go back to football. I know a lot of you are saying that Anita shouldn't have gone out and maybe she shouldn't but as Robbie was the only one below her it wasn't a terrible decision to eliminate Anita.
Also Anitas elimination continues the trend of voting that I highlighted at the start of the series where once you find yourself in the bottom 2 with the public you will find yourself there on a regular basis until your elimination is confirmed.
That trend was started durind last years series when the public had their voting power completely restored to them and it has continued through this series. I never felt that Anitas latin was particularly good throughout this series and felt she benefitted from some generous latin comments and scores but having said that in her last 2 latin routines her latin performances deteriorated.
It was almost like she had a slight hangover from the shock of being in the bottom 2 that week before Wembley and never fully recovered from it. Her latin may not have been great but her ballroom certainly was very good and she had a lovely personality. She will certainly be missed. Watch it on iplayer. When first Brendan got all shiny in his eyes and then Robin talked to her on the phone Glad that Harry, Holly and Alex are still in but sad that Anita left. Especially as she went without Robin.
I'm so glad Robbie stayed in. He's not getting the sympathy vote - he tries so hard and clearly loves it. I've never seen someone get so passionate about it. I'm Welsh and would like to say how sad I am about Gary Speed passing away. I hope Robbie can put as much as he usually does into his training this week. Gary loved watching Robbie dance and Robbie needs to remember this and make his next dance for Gary.
We love you Robbie and Ola. That is understandable NatRick as you said it is the nature of the show and in the semis there is a double elimination. I do have a certain sympathy particularly for Brendan but having said that although the right man went last week that could easily have been Anita going last week and then Robins foot infection would have only been an issue for him. I have absolutely loved watching Anita this series - she's been so eager to learn and has acted with grace and humility throughout the competition.
She and Bobby have made for the most wonderful partnership, and it was heartbreaking that he couldn't be there for the last dance, but Anita can rest assured that she has really done herself proud. Much love to everyone, SJ.
It's so sad that Anita's gone, I welled up when Robin was on the phone!! Although Brendan is a hero for being on the end of the "rent-a-pro" line, Robin and Anita should get the chance to have a last dance together!!
We'll miss you Anita! Anita , you were fab you really should of stayed in you were gorgeous and a inspiration to us all I really think Robbie should have gone he was not that good he was extremely stiff and was the last on the leader board so he really should of gone to be honest. I think the saddest thing is that Robin was not there to have a final dance with Anita it was devastating xxxxx love you Anita and keep dancing xxx. It was virtually flawless and only Len had anything negative to say and that was about the music.
It makes no sense at all! I hope she goes on to win it now as it was injustice tonight. It is always sad to see someone leave and I was surprised it was Anita this week. I thought she would get more votes because of the difficult week she had and having Brendan step in.
Maybe he has been doing some worthwhile campaigning. It was lovely that Robin got to speak and thank Anita. Brendan was very apologetic because he felt he had let her down. I was disappointed that Holly was in the bottom two this week. I think Claudia was stupid to say that the swingathon lasted longer than it in fact did.
For her information it last about 3 minutes. It was actually insensitive and offensive for the BBC to carry on with their ridiculous charade that tonight's result show was recorded tonight.
Gary Speed tragically hanged himself this morning, and Robbie Savage was a close friend of his. Robbie appeared on BBC News earlier today, clearly very upset and grieving. There is no way that he would then have gone on to appear on SCD's Results show, 'worrying' about his dance score and whether he would have been 'saved'. That would have been the last thing on his mind 12 hours after his friend committed suicide.
I am shocked that the BBC did not make an announcement before tonight's show, explaining that it was pre-recorded. Everyone knows it is recorded on Saturday night. The BBC needs to stop this farce. So want Harry to win. Craig you should have given him 10 for his dance he is just amazing.
Chelsee and Pasha are excellent as well. I want these two in the final - would just be amazing. I'm surprise and I'm not surprise, what i mean in that is I knew that Anita's time was near but I was hoping that she wouldn't go out this weekend when she was dancing with Brendan and not Robin. Robbie should have gone tonight.
Mandy10 - All the contestants try hard and love it! Simple fact is, Robbie is the worst dancer and should have gone. He doesn't actually do much dancing, it's all hip thrusts and gimmicks - like stripping off his pants - I'm fed up with it especially when he stays in at the expense of good dancers like Holly and Anita.
Len was spot on with his comments - I hope from now on Ola and Robbie stick to the dancing and leave the clothes on for a change. I have nothing against Robbie and Ola at all.
They are so entertaining and have a real bizazz! I felt completely gutted for Anita and Holly tonight. Holly was visably shaken to find herself in the bottom 2 again after an awesome dance. It was a sad day for SCD. Just an observation. A lot of contributors are saying Robbie should be out. NO, he got the votes from the public to keep him in, Anita didn't End of!
Next week if you want Robbie out, then vote for those around him on the leaderboard. But please don't moan or blame Robbie for the Public voting for him! Lovely show sorry Anita has gone out tonight. Please can we see the Dave Arch band and his singers like we saw Lance tonight. They are the making of the show. PS this train of thought is regularly being expressed on the ITT blog!!!!!
Wouldn't it be nice if we could vote people off instead of voting to keep them in? Are the Beeb going to give it a try? I thought not Kate 25 I totally agree with you and find it amazing that some people seem to think that the Sunday results show is live. Irrespective of that, the BBC should have made it clear that it was pre-recorded based on Robbie's appearance on BBC news following the death of his friend.
Robbie is completely devestated of his friend Gary Speeds death as was obvious in the news interview. How embarressing that some members of the public who believe the result are filmed on a Sunday as I did until a few weeks ago would think he then went onto to the show in a happy go lucky nature. So sorry to see Anita go. She did really well and should be very proud.
I thought it would come down to Anita or Robbie this week, so it wasn't too much of a surprise. I think it will be should be Robbie next week or possibly Alex. Fantastic show, but please stop this results show farce, we all know the show is pre-recorded on Saturday. Don't treat us as idiots, please, just put the result show on later on the Saturday night.
Was it just me or did anyone else notice how chivilarous and caring Brendon was when facing the judges - when it was Craigs turn to speak Brendon cuddled Anita to shield her from any adverse comments. The Bad Boy has a soft centre!!!!
Really sorry to see Anita go, it now gets harder each week to see anyone go they are all at such a high standard. I'm heartbroken to see Anita go! She was the brightest of bright stars and a wonderful girl. As one of her generation I can say that she was an inspiration! She was talented, bright and bubbly, beautiful, witty and drop-dead gorgeous. Anits we'll miss you loads!! I am so sorry to see Anita go.
Why do they keep saying how wonderful Holly is when she just doesnt try. She has not hit it off with Artem absolutly no chemistry between them. I think Robbie or Holly are the next to go. Is the results show on Sunday live or pre-recorded and the result sworn to secrecy? How does BBC calculate the final scores once viewers votes have been counted? A couple of points for Freedom of Information perhaps though there are more important uses of that legislation.
I like the show. This year the contestants have formed a close band and help eachother and that makes for better viewing. The judges' comments are also very good. Craig is always careful to be objective not subjective. He tempers criticism with praise whenever he can. Len can be a bit grumpy but that may be his nature.
Anita was good throughout but maybe starting to look a bit tired. I do not think she minded much to be eliminated. They may be making a point to Holly too who I think is excellent and has a good attitude. The point is that she may be coasting a little too much like a teacher ticks off a pupil. I believe Robbie has a lot else to consider right now as do all of us who follow football and have long admired Gary Speed.
I think that if the show was live then Robbie was exceptionally brave and professional to appear. He along with all the contestants this year are a credit to the show and role models for us all. Anita, your enthusiasm and spirit were delightful to watch. I agree with a lot of the contributors on here that you didn't deserve to go out this week.
For me, Robbie is the worst dancer left in the competition but he must have a very strong popular vote. Checking the scores, he has to be at least the 4th most popular celebrity to have leapfrogged over Anita, Alex and Holly to avoid being in the bottom two.
BadDancingBadger 31 is right, to vote for someone to leave you need to vote for the other dancers that are at the bottom of the judge's leaderboard. There is no need for the results show to keep referring to "Saturday night's show" or "yesterday" and it would have been respectful for the BBC to have announced that the show had been recorded. They simply refer to things happening on Saturday or yesterday because of when the program is broadcast. Just to remind people the show was recorded on Saturday.
I agree with Almaric about Claudia's timing of the Swingathon. No way it lasted 18 minutes. Had it done so all the viewers would have been exhausted as well. I assume that the show is being shown live on Saturday so someone should have corrected her.
I think that appearing on the one show each week suits her better than every night. Zoe Ball is an exceptional broadcaster like her Dad and makes each show lively and fun. She can also dance pretty well. Another good choice by BBC. Thanks MrsArcanum. I reckoned that logistically it would have been complicated to bring everyone back the next day. In which case the show should be shown later on in the evening post news at ten. The contestants are all wearing the same clothes as well Erin in her voluminous ballgown notwithstanding.
And given the circumstances of yesterday I think an announcement should have been made before the show or after it. And this evening may be an opportunity to let the secret out. I thought I was the only one who was a little confused. Poor Brendan must be feeling so bad but please Strictly team tell him that it wasn't his fault! Two final dances in one series, ouch. He's a star! I am surprised by the number of people here that think the results show is live; no one has ever pretended it is.
Why does it need to be? I was in the studio on Saturday; Anita was an absolute delight and lit up the room, I smiled all the way through her performance. It wasn't the best dance for her but she certainly deserved to stay in the competition. Very sad and the wrong person has gone this week. Personally I find Holly being overmarked and felt her performance and dancing was of a lower standard than Anita.
My bottom two were Holly and Robbie this week, and while they have both come along way there time is up. Anita still had more to give. I am really pleased Alex was saved, yes her performance could have been tighter and more finished but she did a fabulous job and I thought unfairly marked.
Anita - you were a joy. I believe Robbie got sympathy votes last night and i'm glad.. RIP Gary Speed. Harry to win. I would like to think that athe BBC might change their policy on the results show but as we all know they ignore what we say, I am not optimistic.
Robbie should have gone and I think he would probably be the first to agree, but his mate Chris Moyles is drumming up support for him on his radio show and pretty sure that had something to do with the votes he is getting. If he is back to ballroom this week, I think it will be better for all concerned and hope that Ola just gives him a straightforward dance to do. Aliona finally did and look how fantastic it was! Very sorry to see Anita go - she is a lovely lady.
I think Robbie should have gone , this is the last 7 and they are introducing gimmicks , the strip was not essential for that dance and proves they are now looking for the entertainment tag rather than the dancing tag. Gary's death wasn't announced till Sunday lunchtime. BigRed53 Hardly a gimmick. More of a tragic mistake of judgement in my eyes that should not have been done. Won't happen again. What RS has to do it would be very hard for him to go of and do his own thing.
Sorry to see Anita go, should have been Robbie, perhaps some of the judges should go, they are becoming boring, Craig is turning it into a technical lecture with a face as long as a wet weekend, Bruno Semaphori the human windmill is becoming ridiculous, Len runs hot and cold depending on his Sanatogen fix and we see Tess's posing grin from all angles every week.
I want laughter, I want to be entertained. What happened to the dance off, we used to get two looks at the also rans.
I want Russell fired from a cannon, I want Craig fired from a cannon. Keep this show entertaining because I feel it is slipping into I'm a dancer get me out of here mode.
Robbie should have been the one to go on "Sunday's" results show. I like his enthusiasm etc but to be honest I'm getting a bit fed up with him dancing almost every dance as though he's performing at a hen night. All these pelvic thrusts are wearing a bit thin now. Glad Alex survived - it may not have been her best dance compared with her last few routines but I still think she was underscored on Saturday.
To me she doesn't connect with or seem to have the same warmth with her partner Artem that Alex has with James, Anita had with Robin, and Russell had with Flavia. Holly's a bit of a cold fish. Please stop this charade about the Sunday night show being live - it so clearly isn't and is insulting to the viewers intelligence.
Come on BBC!! This week's show was one of the best so far - real dances not just show dances, none of the recent crop of gyrating about by the professionals, the VTs were a little less cring making than usual and the judging at least came up with a reasonable leaderboard.
Sorry to see Anita go - not the best dancer but a great role model. I am surprised to want Holly to go - she is a great dancer but I just cant get interested in her progress. Hi everyone, well what a shock Anita going home, and Holly and Artem in the bottom 2 again, I realy thought Robbie and Ola would go this week, but no they got through, sympathy votes I guess, dont think Robbie and Ola will last much longer, perhaps next Sunday they will go home, I felt sorry for Anita as she didnt have her usual partner there with her when she was sent home, but he was on the end of the phone line, what lovely things he said about Anita, would of been nice for her to go out with her dancing with Robin, but hey its the public that votes to keep them in, was surprised at Holly and Artem in bottom 2 again though, dont think they will win it this year, last year when Artem had Kara as hes dancing partner, I dont think they were ever in the bottom 2, the competition is hotting up now, realy good dancers left in, think it will either be Jason, chelsee or Harry that wins it, thought Harry would win the swingathong, oh well we at least get to see Anita tonight on i.
One glaring problem with the Strictly competition is the choice of specific dance music!! Who chooses the music? This has often happened in the past and I believe even the judges are bemused.
Somebody needs to learn about music choice urgently. Just seen this message from Robin for Anita which I thought was so sweet: "Anita darling, I just wanted to say you've been absolutely incredible, and I'm so sorry I couldn't be there with you tonight.
I'm going to miss you dearly". Not sure what Suzie45 means - I think it's definitely Rory in the preview - Paul Daniels never looked that elegant! Sending much love and support to Robbie as this is going to be a very difficult and emotional week for him if he can see it through. I am proved right as even on here where most of the comments are from SCD fans who all realise the results are pre-recorded there are comments that robbie had a sympathy vote etc so imagine how many viewers out there think this Gary speed obviously respected SCD and supported Robbie as he was in the front row of the audience a few weeks ago and therefore desrves the respect back How on earth could Holly be in the last two for two weeks consecutive is beyond me.
Of the remaining Dancers "Robbie" is the bottom one by big margin it's certainly bottom. How the others leave before the final in my opinion is immaterial. At 28th Nov , donstennett , the pro dancers have a say in what music they use, apparently they provide a list for the BBC and band to approve as there are copyright issues when using other people music, the BBC get approval from record companies etc, so the music choice for Holly was Artem, but he likes to make things different and I do wonder this year if the pros have been given new instructions, as none of them really go for traditional songs, a lot of the music is pop music which does attract a younger audience and can influence voting factor use this thinking on song choices and this year the dances are more show dances with lifts etc rather than the real dance.
What a shame. The great British public is not so great. People are voting for their favourites just because of who they are, not based on their performance.
There were too many hip thrusts and vulgar moves from Robbie Savage. Possibly Anita should have been in the bottom two, but she is streets ahead of the has-been footballer, and she did brilliantly on Saturday. Holly should not have been in the bottom two either.
