Strictly is off to the seaside!!! With the 7 remaining couples dancing in the Tower Ballroom it’s bound to be a special show tonight! Plus the word Blackpool is probably going to be mentioned 43842842248 times during the course of tonight’s show. And we’ve probably got backing dancers getting in the way. Yay!
But who rose to the top of the tower tonight? And who needs to take a long walk off North Pier? You can let me know your thoughts about tonight’s show right here in the comments section or you can head on over to Facebook or Twitter to let me know your thoughts there. To get involved on Twitter remember to tag @davejthorp and include #StrictlySpoiler. Each time you get involved in the discussion you earn an entry into this month’s prize draw to win an iPad.
There’s more chances to win on the social networks if you can spot the hidden password in the spoiler post posted later tonight. Full details on how to get involved there will be on the spoiler post and on the social networks.
As always I will be opening a poll here when all 7 couples have danced so you can pick your favourites this week. You will be able to select up to 3 options like normal and this will give you something to do while you are refreshing the site while you wait for the spoiler to come in.

Blackpool spoilers are often later than normal as the logistics are different at a non studio venue so do not be surprised if it is a late spoiler tonight. Please can I ask that you do not bombard me with messages on Facebook or Twitter asking if I have heard yet. I receive hundreds of notifications on a Saturday night and your messages will get lost in the noise. Plus you can easily tell if I have heard yet by checking to see if I have posted it here. If it’s posted here, I have heard, if it’s not posted here, I haven’t!

I actually thought Karim’s dance was too fast, and messy as a result, he didn’t finish one move before he was into another… I got the impression the judges were simply throwing the 9s and 10s out there and effectively saying ‘let the viewers sort it out’ because it was Blackpool. Didn’t think much of Michelle’s choice, to be honest. And Chris just wandered around pointing for the first half of his dance (and Karen screaming and carrying didn’t persuade me that it was great). Emma, Saffron and Kelvin were really good though. For me, it’s Michelle and Chris in the dance-off, and they’ll probably save Michelle ‘for the sentiment’ and not the dance itself.
Agreed on Michelle’s dance – the message and style was spot on, but basically it was (as the song put it) “Strike a pose, there’s nothing to it”.
Whether she avoids the dance-off depends on whether her core vote actually turns out this week (I still haven’t figured out how last week happened…).
I’ve a feeling it’ll be Chris and Alex, with Alex to stay.
Have tonight’s posts all disappeared from the Facebook page, or is it just me?
It’s not just you. Hopefully it’s just a glitch and sorts out soon
I tried to link here from Facebook and was told that the site violated their community standards, so I’m thinking the Facebook police are at it…..
Yes it now looks like someone has reported the address for this site as being spam on Facebook and Facebook has automatically blocked the address rather than actually looking at the site first. This would appear to basically be a malicious cyber attack against this site
It’s probably going to take me some time to resolve if I can get it resolved as getting a real person at Facebook to look at something seems to be notoriously difficult
