Nice to see the old chestnut 'crotch around the neck' dance move getting a look-in on Finals night.
I take it back. I quite like Michael Bubble tonight.
BAH.
Market closed. I wanted to get 2 quid on that NHS Doctor to win it. The Guardian said he was a walk-over to win it. Can't think why.

cheers for all the banter guys, it's what keeps me going - the few times I get in late and catch up alone, it's just not the same at all.

that Buble wasn't doing it for you. You can't change you mind 6 seconds later.
Many thanks squares for all your leaderboard efforts, series-long :)

You're a ledge' Squares, thanks for your hard work Bud 
it's self indulgent, I'm like KfG - I only do it for me
tbf as a group gamblers are the most generous people i have come across (easy come easy go)
Joking apart, the specials crew are pretty generous (leaving out the people that got the Xmas #1 market scratched).
I believe they are Cider
and the people I have met in racing and betting over the years in general are

Oti has had a great series, I think they have pushed her to the forefront of the new dance show (and given Cheryl Who a back seat)
no go this year hems
(unless anything changes in the meantime)

i always do something odd for the reveals on all these shows
Are they the worst Strictly Champions ever?
Better than Hollins maybe.

now ffs give KfG some duffers and get him out of the final
all of the winners
they have captured the moment, the zeitgeist, they might not have won in another year

Stacey is so generous she has made it all about Kev too
After 3 months of study and dedication I end up £71 in front 
Her likeability was the major reason for winning. Really didn't like her week 1 either so a big turn around in public perceptions.
Hollins surely couldn't capture a zeitgeist even if you gave a huge net.
not sure about that squares. I think she would have been a massive runner in any year
i always liked her on the docs and on TWS, etc.
found her and KfG a bit too much early on
but then it sort of clicked for both of them

She does very good crime documentaries that's for sure, and has a likeable personality.
I’m pleased for the forum.I think there were a few big Joe reds floating around.
Was a good 2 hours, managed to choose and order kitchen tiles and glass splashback
I was talking more about people from the past.
I always think it is a massive combo of factors which makes the winner the winner in their year.
Lots of them from the past you couldn't imagine winning now, but when the time was right.

I’m as happy for Kevin as I was AP when he finally one the GN.
and when Flavia won with Louis
so pleased KfG has got the monkey off his back

Many people just don't get 'it' squares. It doesn't matter how many times it is explained. Suits me perfectly tbf. Louis had it won before it started as long as he wasn't a complete duffer.
It’s been a great night. Thanks for the scoring, Squares.
Goodnight all

anything stronger than a cuppa tea and an ipad now?

I’m pleased Joe didn’t win in relation to future series’.Would have made betting on these shows very different if a similar contestant was involved.
yes, at least we have the answer to what might have been unknown.
He has been a terrific signing though and an indicator of why the shows keeps thriving and moving forwards rather than dying on its @rse

The casting on SCD is almost always excellent.
You will always get the occasional disappointment but in general it’s exemplary and perhaps the reason the show continues to do well.

I feel it would be a mistake to think Joe done well just because of his social media background. For me Stacey and Joe dominated the series, at least the latter stages. Stacey was a tough opponent and a deserved winner. Joe was level for me before the top female angle became available.

It’s never anything stronger than a cup of tea, Squares. And my iPad is intact 
I agree that he will have won over a lot of people who had no clue who he was beforehand or had just heard the name (ie me)
It's the hollywood stuff that sells best, and he did no ballroom aside from the little SD bits in a 'rocky' outfit, even though he was far better in br. It was a mistake on their part if they turned down the chance to do the QS.
betfair **** up on strictly betfair betting on first 3 but only winner announced yet £36000 taken in bets obviously money will have to be given back otherwise freud committed
I had two bets very early on Stacey outright and top female.
As I said on here if she avoided the dance-offs then she was pretty much a certainty.
It is becoming more and more a popularity contest. Either that or the judges are clueless. You look first and foremost at someone who has appeal and if they can dance a bit then you have a possible bet.
