Strictly Week 12 - Semi Final

[Eve]

Spoilers for anyone not watching live and it is likely that the dance off result will be posted when it is available online, well before the dance off tomorrow. Who else is watching and who do you think will be the celebrity not to make it through to the final next week?

[murraymints]

8 8 8 8 going ?

[Toorak]

32 for gemma

[Eve]

She did really well considering she was struggling a bit in training! Must have been difficult with such early starts with her radio job.

[Toorak]

On the basis of the judges scores - Gemma and mollie out

But you can never tell....the public vote obviously can make a huge difference

[murraymints]

wow love that frock

[Eve]

I'm still confused, are there two going this week then and how are they going to do that with the dance off?

[Toorak]

I wouldn’t have thought that ‘isn’t she lovely’ was the easiest song to do the foxtrot to

[Toorak]

But what a performance !

[murraymints]

8 9 9 10

[Toorak]

36 for Debbie

[murraymints]

have to wait and see now.... thank you for your company ladies..quick cuppa and I'm off to the jungle ! xx

[Eve]

It wasn't the best song really but a nice Foxtrot, can't really go too showy with it. Well, some nice dances but some far more impressive ones in earlier weeks, reflected in a lot of the scores really.

So, leaderboard is Alexandra (39), Joe (35), Debbie (34), Gemma (30) then Mollie (24).

[tonyav]

Bye bye Mollie I think, shame though.

[Eve]

Duh, sorry...

Alexandra - 30 & 40 = 79

Joe - 35 & 35 = 70

Debbie - 34 & 36 = 70

Gemma - 30 & 32 = 62

Mollie - 24 & 32 = 56

[Toorak]

They haven’t said that the dance off is any different this week - so seems as though there will initially be 4 in the final?

Mollie to go I think

[horseshoes]

Although I have to agree that Debbie is a marvellous dancer, there's just something about her I don't like. I'd love to see Gemma win.

[Eve]

Ah, they said when stood with Claudia, there will be four in the final! Wonder how they are going to do it, maybe by public vote after the first dances and the bottom two go?

[Eve]

Bye Murray, enjoy the cuppa and jungle, I'm headed to bed shortly but will cheering on Toff from there, she is such a sweetheart!

The dances have been put on Youtube now if you can see them on there bednobs, and anyone else who missed any or wants a re-watch.

DO is Gemma v Mollie

[tonyav]

I had a feeling it would be those two.
Thanks jakep.
