I love Ali and Ricky, I just love to watch them dance

They are amazing dancers and they deserve to be in the final but for me SCD is all about a celeb who starts of pretty rubbbish and blossom each week. Both Ali and Ricky have been great dancers since week one. Poor Ali only ended up in the dance off because she is not as popular as some of the other celebs. I would have liked to see Zoe and Jade still in the competition.

[Abbie]

I do get that, I do love seeing them improve and me great and at least go really far, even to the final

But when I watch amazing dancers I just love them and it depends on the celebs and how good and wellhow good the routine is if If I want them to win, which in the case of Ali and Ricky I do.
Fair enough its all about improvement BUT its not their fault they were good from the off and its not fair if we put all our attention to the improvers, I think because viewers love improvers that its unfair to the great dancers who have always been great to watch

Alesha Dixon has suggested that she may quit her judging role on Strictly Come Dancing to focus on her music career.

The former Mis-Teeq star controversially replaced Arlene Phillips on the panel of the celebrity dancing competition this year.

When asked if she would return next year, Dixon told The Mirror: "I'd like to, but there's talk of me going to America to promote my album, so I'll take each day as it comes."

A show source said: "We're very keen to keep Alesha, especially given the fuss it caused.

"But she is super ambitious and she won't be committing to anything until next year, once she sees what else is on offer. Bosses will be on tenterhooks."

A BBC spokesman added that "nothing is confirmed" regarding the makeup of next year's panel.

Dixon released the Gary Barlow co-written single 'To Love Again' earlier this month.

Handcuffs might restrict his movements a bit
