Chris Ramsey Eliminated From Strictly Come Dancing 2019

As revealed in last night’s Strictly Spoiler, Chris and Karen have been eliminated after losing in the dance off to Karim and Amy

You can relive their Street routine from week 7 in the video below:

The finalists in the order of qualification are:

Kelvin and Oti
Emma and Anton
Karim and Amy

Did the right couple leave? As always you can let me know your thoughts about that or anything else to do with tonight’s results show right here in the comments section below (you must be on an individual post rather than the home page to see the comments section) or head on over to Twitter or Facebook. On Twitter remember to tag @davejthorp in your comments and include #StrictlySpoiler. Each time you get involved in the discussion on either of the social networks or here at the home of The Strictly Spoiler you earn an entry to potentially win an iPad at the end of the series.

Talking of winning I can reveal that Facebook won the coin toss this week. One of you on there who spotted the hidden password of “Sir Bruce Forsyth” in amongst a minefield of fake passwords in the spoiler post will be getting a rewarding message shortly

You can still vote in this week’s poll and tell me who your series winner is. Sadly you can only select one winner!

Don’t forget I’ve a bonus spoiler this week in the form of The Christmas Special Spoiler which was filmed last week. And also please take a few minutes to read my annual thank you post where I talk about this year for The Strictly Spoiler and thanks those people who have contributed to another huge year!

Also over the course of next week I’ll be running my regular series where I take a look at the finalists and their Strictly journeys so far. I will be doing them in the order they qualified for the final and you can look out for the first part in the next day or two!

Strictly Come Dancing 2019 – Week 12 (Semi Final) Discussion/Poll

The end of the series is in sight and tonight the final spoiler of the series will land. Before that though the 4 semi finalists will have to complete not one but two more dances to earn their places in next week’s Final

But who is a finalist? And who doesn’t deserve a place in next week’s Final? As always you can let me know your thoughts right here in the comments section (make sure you are clicked into the title of an individual post rather than viewing the homepage archives otherwise you will not see 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 also 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 and a £50 Amazon UK voucher is up for grabs! You guys may want to make sure you look carefully for the password this week as there could be some decoys…….

Don’t forget I’ve a two for one on spoilers this week as the Christmas Special was filmed on Tuesday. If you’d like to unwrap your presents a little early you can do so by checking out the spoiler on this link! It’s the spoiler that horrifies those who view it if The Sun is to be believed (which it isn’t!)

Please also take a couple of minutes to read this year’s thank you post where I talk about the 2019 series for The Strictly Spoiler and thank those who have contributed towards the huge success the site has had this year.

As always I will be opening a poll here when all the couples have danced but the poll question is a little different this week as this week I am asking you to pick your winner!

[poll id=”117″]

The spoiler will probably land some time around 10:15pm tonight. As soon as I know it will be posted here though so you guys do not need to bombard me with messages on Facebook or Twitter asking if I have heard yet. Your messages will get lost in the noise of hundreds of notifications on a Saturday Night and will be ignored and also your messages could also delay the spoiler as I have a mole tonight and will be awaiting a message from them with the results which I may miss if I get bombarded with unnecessary notifications!

It’s the final spoiler weekend and running this site for you guys in 2019 has cost me over £1000 in hosting costs. If you want to and can afford to make a one time donation and want to help me out with these costs or if you just want to buy me a cool refreshing beer or a Christmas present to thank me for all the spoilers you can do so using THIS LINK or the button below

Or you can set up a regular donation to help support me every month using the button below. You can choose to donate any amount from £5 a month. You are free to cancel your regular donations at any time but will be automatically charged your selected amount every month if you donate using the button below.

It’s freezing and chances are you have your heating on! This is the best possible time for you to check your energy prices and make sure you are on a good deal.

Strictly Spoiler 2019 Thanks

It’s that time as we approach what will be the final spoiler of the series that I take a few minutes to reflect on the 2019 series and say some words of thanks to those who have made this year another huge year for The Strictly Spoiler

And it has been a huge year. Over the course of this series (including the pre series when contestants were being announced) this website has been viewed 5.5 million times (an increase of 46% on 2018) by 1.44 million people (an increase of 87% on 2018). During the busiest weekend this series the spoiler was viewed a whopping 907k times by 328k of you. Thank you to each and every one of you who comes to this website each week to view the content I produce.

Providing the required web servers to keep up demand is not cheap though and like last year those costs have been helped out by a few of you who have chosen to use the donation link or button. Donating is entirely optional and for the overwhelming vast majority of you this site is free to use. Donating does however help me out with the spiralling web hosting costs which continue to rise as more and more people access the site at the same time and I am grateful to those of you who have been able and willing to spare the cash to help me out with these costs.

Anyone who wants to get a last minute donation in or if you just want to buy me a Christmas present or a cool refreshing beer to thank me for all the spoilers you can do so using THIS LINK or the button below

Also thanks go out to the various sources I work with. These days I work closely with several other spoiler sources on social networks or on other websites and together we help each other out by sourcing moles to provide us with the spoiler each week. Between us we’ve had moles for each week of the 2019 series with only one or two close shaves. Also thanks to anyone who has approached me offering their services as a mole over the course of 2019 and anyone who has provided the spoiler to one of the other sources I work with. Without you moles there would not be a spoiler here or anywhere else online.

I also want to thank those of you on the Facebook page who have been very patient the last few weeks. Unfortunately Facebook have blocked the direct linking of this website on their platform in what appears to be an automatic decision on the part of Facebook following malicious complaints from those opposed to what I do in providing the spoiler. This has caused problems with delivering the spoiler and other content to Facebook and also resulted in the purging of a large number of competition entries prior to the prize draws which meant those entries had to be voided. Everyone on Facebook have been very understanding of the situation and I have worked hard to try and restore partial service on that network over the last few weeks.

What this means for the future of the Facebook page I cannot say as its primary purpose was to drive traffic from Facebook to this site and if it cannot meet that purpose anymore there may come a time where it is simply time to call it a day on Facebook. That will be a decision for 2020 though.

Finally I want to thank those of you who are reading this far into the post. You are the people who actually read and engage with all of my content rather than coming, reading the 2nd paragraph of the spoiler post, and then going away again. You are also probably the people who had a far easier time entering the password competition this series ?

So that’s it for the annual thanks post. Don’t forget there is still The Christmas Special Spoiler available for your viewing delight and the normal discussion/poll posts and spoiler posts will be coming later on tonight too. All that remains is to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2020 when The Strictly Spoiler will be back. Assuming the BBC don’t do anything crazy like a live results show!
