What do you mean the phone vote is defunct!?

Thank you for once again participating in the exit poll! It’s not an entirely unsurprising result.

First of all, I am very obviously reaching a very specific demographic, barely any of which are voting for George bip bopping about the place to K-pop slightly out of frame behind Alexis. So I don’t know, send the poll to your niece or something? I HIGHLY doubt he’s doing anything other than topping the actual vote if the in-house audience screaming like that is any indication.

The obvious Danger Zone is between Chris, Ross and Balvinder with the most suspense being over whether Chris can get a Bottom Two Bounce last week. I somehow doubt it – I don’t think his critiques were harsh enough to warrant an influx of sympathy. I could very easily see a Dance Off between him and Balvinder – Ross’s lands on the right side of absurd novelty and being memorable whereas Balvinder very much faded into the background.

But I imagine Vicky can’t rest entirely easily given that her critiques were harsh but the scores failed to reflect that, which could lead to a potential stall in the urgency to save her. I did notice a trend of people throwing their 5th vote to her (80% of her votes), potentially showing she’s a bit of an afterthought… or she’s just at the bottom of the poll and I’m overthinking that. I do think this leaderboard is sadly missing the Wildcard of Stefan being dressed as Lord Farquaad and being completely unrecognisable – a common nail in the coffin.
