Strictly Saudi's good.

All the men dance together downstairs, and the women dance unseen, upstairs on the balcony.

Very funny.

I've been giving this far too much thought, but let's face it what else is there to do on a Monday night other than argue with Garinda about the marketing demographics of local newspapers!

Anyway, I think Rachel was in the bottom two i.e. very few people voted for her, because she's too perfect. She's clearly very good dancer and she's beautiful, she works very hard but she doesn't show much emotion when she gets voted through. Looking at all the others, they all have 'something' that people can get behind and want to vote for.

Not only is she a very intelligent girl, and an extremely good dancer, she is perhaps one of the most beautiful women on this planet, imo.

,,,Because I For I Love Him,,,,,I hope they do give him 4 zeros,,That would just make the viewers come out in force,,,,I have never voted ,but i CERTAINLY would if they did that

Re: Strictly Come Dancing 2008
 
It makes no difference whether they give him 0 or more - he'll still be at the bottom of the leader board so will still get the 1pt, and because there are now only 8 people in the contest the leader will only get 8pts.

If he's bottom of the judges leader board he only needs to be about fourth or fifth with the viewers to give him enough points to rise above the others. The only way they could really protest would be to give everyone else 40 pts and him less so that they ALL got 8pts to start off with and he only got his 1pt. That way it would be impossible for him to be anywhere but in the dance off - then they could vote him off after that.

That doesn't surprise me GC, for me it was never the same when Richard Whittley died, Des and Des where okay, but without Carol it would be right somehow

Don't think thats quite true GC, they wanted to reduce her salary by a huge amout, and told her to take it or leave it, seems she said I'll leave it;)
