@Poppers_R_Us She absolutely should be praised for her gameplay and probably deserved to win based on it, but I did not warm to her. I wanted to see her downfall (much like one would with an evil villain in a movie)! That’s why I’m not celebrating her victory.
@jamescoulee Whilst I respect and admire her gameplay, I just didn’t like her by the end! I wanted to see the faithfuls take her down and feel disappointed/cheated that I didn’t get to see her downfall.
@The666Beast666@RyanSoapKing25 I’ll try! It’s a travesty she was in the dance off. I loved her dance. I agree with Ryan that the public don’t like contestants with any dance experience. But more than ‘popularity’, the winner needs to encapsulate ‘the magic of strictly’ somehow. I’m not sure she does that.
@The666Beast666@RyanSoapKing25 It’s about both. He was very popular, and I’m VERY surprised he’s gone. But it was a terrible song choice and a chaotic dance. The whole thing was just off in my opinion. So he didn’t get the votes.
@keese09 @watsoncomedian The idea of a competition with the 1st prize being the author coming to your house to read their book to you seems great, and a good marketing tool, but the reality of your favourite author reading out loud to you for 8+ hours could get awkward.
@TheEvertonEnd Sure. That’s why I did some research first. BUT I stumbled on your tweet because I was reading FA Cup draw reactions and also noticed Karen Carney was trending. Many others will do the same, thereby not understanding the context and having this knee-jerk reaction.
@paul_c_watson Where was this? I saw him coming out of a shop in Hammersmith (or was it Shepherd’s Bush?) having bought a bottle of Fairy Liquid so assumed he lived in that area. This was approximately 11 years ago.
Bill & Oti deserving & rightful winners. As is often the case, it is the couple that captures that special, unquantifiable ‘Strictly Spirit’ that wins. #StrictlyFinal#StrictlyComeDancing
@joncoop194@Victoria020887x@JeremyVineOn5 Many people enjoy a harmless gamble, many people suffer from crippling gambling addiction that ruins lives. It’s not about needing ‘protection from the state’, we’re just suggesting that we shouldn’t be promoting it so avidly.
@joncoop194@Victoria020887x@JeremyVineOn5 No one’s saying ‘ban gambling’. I don’t think banning sponsorship on shirts is a bad idea because it limits the exposure in the same way banning smoking ads did. If it stops some from starting to gamble or helps people to gamble less then that is a good thing.
