The Women

With the women only doing a group dance tonight, I'll just do a quick summary for now.

The 1st 3 in the betting are all women so expectations are high.
Kelly Brook and Brendan Cole look a dream pairing, but will women vote for her?
Gabby Logan having represented Wales in the Commonwealth Games in Rhythmic Gymnastics obviously knows how to move as does ex Mis-Teeq singer Alesha Dixon.
Anton seemed very happy with GMTV presenter partner Kate Garraway during the preview show so must be in with a chance.
Of the others Penny Lancaster looks too tall to me and Letitia Dean too tubby and Stephanie Beacham too old.
OK not the greatest analysis, but the best I can do at the moment. :)

I do feel, as I've said previously, that men have a distinct advantage when it comes to the voting. It maybe 2-2 so far in SCD, but the two female winners (Jill Halfpenny and Natashia thingy) were far superior to their male counterparts.
Last year Louisa Lytton and Emma 'great thighs' Bunton were much better dancers than the wooden Matt Dawson and on a par with Ramps at times and yet neither made the final.

A decent guy will be a decent woman every time in this show. It will take one of the women to be exceptional or the men not to be upto much for a female winner.

It could happen, but I'll stick with Gethin and small bets on Kenny Logan and Dom for now.
