Strictly Come Dancing 2018 – Christmas Special Discussion/Poll

First of all Merry Christmas all!!!!

We may already know who wins tonight’s Christmas Special thanks to The Strictly Spoiler but for one last time this year you can get involved with the discussion right here at the home of the Strictly Spoiler. Or head on over to Facebook or Twitter and join the discussions there! There will not be anything like my usual levels of commentary on those networks as it’s Christmas! But you can still get involved in the discussion. No prizes either this week (sorry) even though it’s Christmas

A poll is set to automatically open right here at the home of The Strictly Spoiler at 18:15 by which time I hope all 6 couples will have danced so check back then and tell me who your three favourites were

I never got around to migrating the site back to cheaper hosting as I planned to last week however I will probably get this competed when the Christmas Special traffic is over and done with. Hopefully the move won’t be as intense or involve any downtime as I’ve discovered that there is a cheaper solution with my current host which will be fine for the off season (but not fine during Strictly Season) so I may just move it over to that which will be a little easier.

Operating and hosting this website will have cost me close to £1000 by the end of the year. If you can afford to and want to help me out with these costs or just want to buy me a beer or if you are feeling festive you can do so using THIS LINK or the button below

Strictly Come Dancing 2018 – Week 13 (Final) Cumulative Polls

As most of you will be aware I ran polls throughout the final opening new polls after each dance with reset totals.

However the BBC vote doesn’t work like that with votes throughout the final added up and totalled at the end. So I thought it would be interesting (though not likely to affect the order but maybe the percentages) to do the same with my polls from last night.

So I’ve crunched the numbers and here are the cumulative totals from my polls after each dance.

So looking at these polls it seems that both Joe and Dianne and Faye and Giovanni gained votes as the final went along and Stacey and Kevin lost votes but not enough to cost them the Glitterball. Ashley and Pasha’s vote was pretty consistent as the final went along

Operating and hosting this website will have cost me close to £1000 once this series is over and done with. If you can afford to and want to help me out with these costs or just want to buy me a beer or a Christmas Present you can do so using THIS LINK or the button below

Don’t forget this site will be going down for maintenance in the next few days while I move it to a cheaper host for the off season. If you haven’t already checked out the Christmas Special Spoiler now may be a good time!
