Talking of winning well done to those of you who spotted the hidden password of “Champions” in the discussion/poll post. Twitter won the coin toss so one of you on there will be getting a rewarding DM shortly

There’s no spoiler this weekend as the final results were, in a novelty for the BBC, live. I do however still have the Christmas Special spoiler and 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.

It’s the final weekend and running this site for you guys in 2019 has cost me over £1000 in hosting costs.

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. Switching takes 2 minutes and if you switch using MY LINK you can earn yourself £50 and you also support me for free. Bulb will pay your exit fees if your old supplier charges any, do not charge any exit fees themselves so you are always free to switch and have 100% green energy at low prices.

But you can give this post a good old like and share on a number of other popular social networks using the buttons above and below. Your likes and shares help spread the word about The Strictly Spoiler and really do help me out!

That’s pretty much it for this series now and for The Strictly Spoiler for another year. The site will be migrating at some point next week back to cheaper hosting for the off season so it doesn’t cost me an arm and a leg so if you have issues accessing it at any point next week that is probably why

Discussion posts will open for the Christmas special on Christmas Day however there will be no commentary on the social networks as I’m not working on Christmas Day!

Other than that all that remains is to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Strictly Come Dancing 2019 Finalists – Karim and Amy

With the final just a few hours away it is time for the final part in my series where I take a look at the finalists and their journey so far. Taking them in the order in which they qualified for the final we finish with Karim and Amy

Best Dance

Karim and Amy got the first 40 of the series back in musicals week when their Jive made Craig dust the cobwebs off his 10 paddle and join the other judges in awarding maximum points (10,10,10,10)

Worst Dance

Their week 3 Samba scored 26 points with the judges (6,7,6,7)

Average Score

Karim and Amy have amassed a total of 452 points from 13 routines making for an average score of 34.8. This is the 2nd highest (or 2nd lowest) average of the 3 finalists

Number Of Times In The Dance Off

Karim and Amy are the only finalists to have survived a dance off on route to the final. And they’ve survived 2 of them.

The first came in week 10 when they were joint top of the leaderboard following their Couple’s Choice in the style of Contemporary which scored 38 (9,9,10,10). Saffron and AJ fell in what was a pretty one sided dance off

They also fell into the bottom two from second on the judges leaderboard after last week’s Semi Final. Opting to perform their American Smooth again which scored 38 (9,10,9,10) they easily dispatched Chris and Karen in another one sided dance off

Odds Of Winning

Bookmakers are offing prices in the range of 12-1 on Karim and Amy lifting the Glitterball although one of my Facebook fans did say they managed to get odds of 20-1 on betting exchanges which would probably be a great opportunity to lay off for a profit during the final

Can They Win?

There are a lot of barriers for Karim and Amy to get over if they want to lift the Glitterball. Well actually that might not be true because they are a strong couple. There is however one massive barrier……

The Public!

The final is decided on public vote only and we know for a fact that Karim’s public vote is weaker than both of the other two finalists as there is no permutation of votes last weekend where Karim receives more public vote than Emma or Kelvin but still ends up in the Dance Off

Does this mean we should write them off? I’d say no. It would take a turn around in their public vote in order for them to be crowned champions but it can happen. Ore won three years ago despite landing up in the Dance Off twice just like Karim has so these things can happen. It will depend entirely on how their final goes and how many floating voters they can pick up in the final

What do you think of Karim and Amy. Will you be supporting them in the Final? You can let me know your thoughts right here in the comments section or over on Facebook or Twitter

That’s it for this series but it’s not the end of content here at the home of The Strictly Spoiler for today. My normal discussion/poll post will land later (and may land a little earlier than normal so it can be indexed by the search engines before the final) and there will be polls opening at multiple points during the final to ask who your winners are so check back for them. All polls running at the moment are going in to lockdown shortly so I can get things ready for tonight

I will also be running my usual commentary during the final on both Facebook and Twitter and you can get involved in the discussion for one last time for a chance to win an iPad. Also I’m going to resurrect the password competition for during the final for a chance to win a £50 Amazon UK Voucher. Look out for the final password on the discussion/poll post later. Entries will close at the end of the final!

Running this website for you guys this series has cost me over £1000 in hosting costs which has been very gratefully helped out by people just like you. If you 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 to thank me for all the work I do you can do so using THIS LINK or the button below

You can choose to donate any amount from £5 a month (sorry I would have liked to allow lower regular donations but the system only allows for a minimum of £5 per 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. If you’d rather make a one time donation you should use the PayPal link/button above!
