None of the audience who were going mad were doing so cos he is on the internet lol. And it wasn't due to being whipped up by the judges either.

I'll ask again. First time voters watching on Saturday. Basing their votes on the dances,,a long with the production/script. Who they voting for. George or Kaz?

You were asking if G's samba inspired people to vote for him (I think). Obviously yes. It did.
|
|
By:
No I wasn't read back

This is what I replied.
Yes. He did it on Saturday with the samba, no production help aside from appropriate music. |
|
By:
I can't think in a million years that himself and Alexis won't want the showdance to be huge fun. I don't think it will be serious at all. But the music they been landed with doesn't make it easy.

Fig was delighted with their showdance song choice

Here's a question Cider.
Is George, as far as you are aware using any of his social media platforms, to ask his fans to vote for him regardless of whether they are watching the show? Cos he needs to in order to win |
|
By:
I don't look at social media, so can't tell you. Only links posted by others. I know he did his usual pod, and Alexis was on it, and voting was discussed. They looked as tired as Karen did on ITT the other day!
|
|
By:
And look what happen in the live show the day after.
Don't lose heart |

What happened? George bossed it. It's more of an observation of how draining the process is.
|
|
By:
I think Kaz was top of the leader board pal
|
|
By:
There's a lot of back and forth and over analysis as often happens with specials. A trap I can fall into myself lol. The equation is a very common one in this however, will the producers get the result they want. It's not really much more complicated that that. We can be reasonably sure that Karen will get all of the advantages possible. Often the producers get what they want, sometimes they can't defeat the support for their opponent. You think they will, I think there's a decent chance they won't, considering all known information at this time.

I think we can surely agree George finishes bottom of the leaderboard tomorrow night?
We also know that doesn't mean he can't win. |
|
By:
The price of fish is more critical.
|
|
By:
Only if you George he's got it sewn up regardless of what happens on the night.
I don't |

Literally nobody cares about the table order in the final. Of course Kaz will get 40s, adding to the cheerleading and pimping after her dances. That will feed into the table.
|
|
By:
You done anymore hedging?
|
|
By:
The 40s with the relentless crowd applause which peters over the judges comments can be a bit of a dopamine hit. Kaz ahead on all metrics, George has an unseen level of support but nowhere near the level of Ginge.
|
|
By:
You backing Kaz now AR?
|
|
By:
Cider and Sharine the only ones thinking George wins.
Figgy changes from one day to the next |
|
By:
The viewers dopamine hit leading them to vote and start believing the dance was better than it actually was. Though to a lesser extent it can irk those more wily and deter a potential undecided voter.
Not now Bob, no. I'll adjust my book on the night given SM response and a few other metrics to track George's level of hidden support (which was on another level for Ginge who didn't even need it for the W). |

It's no different to politics and elections. A lot of voters sadly are very low IQ and swayed by the ramping/dampening of scores/crowds etc. As you say, a fair fight, George wins. The irony now is that amongst the usual voters he would lose but using his popularity he can still win, which is a bit unfair. A very intriguing final battle ! Very different to IAC where the dye was cast well before the final, despite the ludicrous market.

He's a very funny guy that Bach too !

By:
We're putting Ginge on this pedestal, but truth is, there are quite a few of the TikTok/streaming/YouTube world who would perform similarly. They are the new a-listers
|
|
By:
Haha yes, Bach is hilarious
|
|
By:
There was a short clip posted ages ago of Alexis and G doing a totally impromptu 'performance' at one of bach's live events. This was after week 1 I believe. I doubt the bbc prods were vert chuffed if they found out about it lol

Shows how out of touch I am with social media, I've not heard of him. Yet I've never used Tiktok in my life
|
|
By:
It's a different world. I was pretty surprised myself of the crowd reaction when he was brought onto the pitch at Wembley. Long before scd obviously. The hard bit to judge is the crossover from this largely underground world to boomer television. IAC gave us an inkling that it is possible to be a tangible one, but scd is more oldster and harder to vote.

We don't know if it was his fans or the fact that he was the main part of every single show. I say the latter. Aitch had more fans than anybody, maybe even Ginge, he was also a large part of the final edit, yet he came 4th.
|
|
By:
It's 100% certain that the huge uplift in voting was due to Ginge being on the show. In my opinion.
|
|
By:
But as we have eluded to. IAC is much more popular with the youngsters hence why they probably threw all their weight behind him for the win.
The only similarities with George is their area of occupation. |
