Strictly Come Dancing 2018 – Week 3 (Movie Week) Discussion/Poll

Written by

Strictly is at the movies this week and the remaining 14 couples are all performing routines inspired by the movies. But who was a box office smash? And who deserves a golden raspberry?

You can let me know your thoughts on that or anything else to do with tonight’s show right here in the comments section at the home of The Strictly Spoiler.

Or you can join the communities on Facebook or Twitter (on Twitter tag @davejthorp and include #StrictlySpoiler). Each time you get involved in the discussion you earn an entry into the competition to win one of four £20 Amazon UK vouchers I have up for grabs each and every week.

A poll will open here once all the couples have danced which will give you something to do while we wait for the spoiler to come in. As always you will be able to select up to 3 options

[poll id=”71″]

This website now costs me hundreds of pounds every month to host and keep up at peak times when the spoiler comes in. If I provide you with a valuable service and you can afford to, and are willing to, help me out with these costs any and all donations would be hugely appreciated. You can use THIS LINK (preferred) or the button below. Do not feel any obligation to help out though. Donations are and will always be entirely optional

It was a very late one for the spoiler last week, but I’m confident that this week’s will be a little earlier. Please if you are part of the communities on Facebook/Twitter do not bombard me with messages asking if I’ve heard. If the spoiler hasn’t been posted here the answer will be no and your messages will get lost in amongst the many hundreds of other notifications I receive on a spoiler night

I am getting fed up with all the racket upstairs when the vote opens. Can’t hear a thing. Hubby is very hard of hearing and just mentally switches off till it’s done. There must be many viewers with similar hearing issues who struggle with this. And I can’t really be a**ed with the pointless celebrity appearances either.

Very difficult to predict the bottom 2. Sadly I think Lee will be going home. Who he faces in the dance off? Not a clue. Everyone improved tonight I thought, even Lee.

Is it just me or is Charles Venn a cold fish? Just can’t seem to find anything likeable about him. I agree with Pete2174, Lee in the dance-off, perhaps with Katie or Seann. Or maybe even a surprise from nearer the top of the leaderboard?

  He’s very full of himself.

  I disagree about Charles, he is a likeable guy. He is just confident.

So where’s the result ? it’s 11pm already ! Claims of it being earlier than last week and it turns out to be later. Maybe it’ll be posted here on Monday ?

  It came in at 23:36 last week so plenty of time yet to still beat that

    Perhaps you should give an ETA – cut down wasted hits to the site ! Maybe that makes up the bigger part of total hits – hence the need to move to a more expensive host!

      I often put an ETA on the posts. Doesn’t stop people refreshing the site from 21:30 onwards on a spoiler night
      
      I’ve also suggested people follow me on Facebook/Twitter because those networks get pinged the second the spoiler gets posted. Again people refresh the site at peak times
      
      Last night the site was viewed 140k times by 47k individual people with most of those views landing from after 22:00

        I’ve had issues with Fb and now Twitter. :(.
        Rather than expensively hosted website, you could handle the data by e-mail Google Group forum. You could totally remove cost of this. e-mail me to discuss. I did send e-mail to your photog e-addr. You can get me @gmail.com

I wish someone would clip Bruno’s wings. He is getting to be so OTT it is boring and distracting.
Craig is still my favourite judge and he is getting better at balancing the necessary technical critique with positive encouragement. Sometimes though performances make it impossible for him to make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear?

I find Shirley incredibly annoying. Sorry. I know someone has to nitpick as to the technicalities, but we’ve already got Craig and Darcy for that. It seems she’s needy for approval. Oh, and please replace Tess with Anton, for the love of Elvis. She’s so wooden she’s creaking.

I think Lee will go home as I think he won’t improve much more, if at all. Who will be in the dance off with him?? Don’t really know as there’s a few couples who could be in for a shock. I think this week’s voting pattern will give a good early indication of whether the viewers are going for best/most improved dancer or their personal favourites this year.

I’m keeping my own scores record and doing different analysis with it. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cpyaNTTOD2Crw7cx_5tO49KGDfP7Pg9v75jdxEXEjTM There’s also a tab with some graphic interpretations. Comments can be added – such as different things to do with the numbers !
