Tonight sees the final of Strictly Come Dancing series 7, and it's a head to head for Ricky and Chris.

Right now I am actually not too fussed who wins.  We have a very similar situation to that we had when it was Colin Jackson and Darren Gough.  Though Colin was the better dancer overall Darren was a deserved winner for the attitude shift he was responsible for in men towards partner dancing.

Here we have a similar thing, Ricky is, without question, the better dancer of the two - but Chris has had more of a journey and is helping people to realise that maybe they could dance too with a little bit of work.  Ricky (on the face of it) appears to have had it easier in the public mind as he has natural talent - though I bet he's had to work just as hard as Chris as we have expected more from him as a result.

Tonight's show will contain several elements, including a Lindy Hop - something not seen before on Strictly as a judged dance and a Show dance.  I shall be typing it up LIVE without the benefit of the pause button or spell check!  So if you are watching with your laptop to hand you can hit refresh throughout the show to get my updates and thoughts.

See you later tonight!
