Was it right that Ellie and Vito won Strictly after mishap? | James Jordan's the Truth | HELLO! 

Please bring this back next year! I always felt validated on Mondays when you'd criticize scoring that I also felt was overly-critical or overmarked! 😂

I definitely want you guys to come back next year ❤ I wanted my favourites, Ellie and Vito to win 🏆 At the same time, I appreciate all the dancers. Fantastic series. My weekly evenings, Saturdays/Sundays will not be the same.

How lucky to have stumbled across Strictly the truth while looking for each week’s dances. Have learned so much from James’s analysis, explanations and inside knowledge. Definitely, want you James to return next year. The best final in a long time. The finalists were all winners, Congrats to Ellie and Vito for lifting the Glitter Ball ! Until next year !!

Oh please James - re Layton's showdance, you know as well as I do that THEY KNEW THEY WEREN'T GOING TO WIN. Why therefore would they go traditional at that point? Better to just go out and just be 100% himself. He demonstrated clearly that he HAS had a journey in ballroom by executing an amazing QS for the first dance! I loved their showdance and I loved that it was a sexy, jazzy, extravagant, Fosse-y celebration of their friendship.

Please do this next year it's basically like seeing those RU-vid videos of actual doctors, architects, and government agents critiquing media spoofs of their professions! Brilliant commentary, and I think your right. This show is making Strictly more interesting, as there's not exactly a tell-all side to the experience of Strictly, so seeing James and Emmy take that route with JJTT is just remarkable! Thank you both!

I think it was great this year because the contestants were actually famous for doing something as opposed to being so- called reality stars.Loved this series.❤

I always love to hear what you think James - please do it next year - what i particularly liked with Layton and Nikita was how open and supportive Nikita is to every partner he has had -

Definitely want your critique next year. It was so refreshing to hear sensible, logical, fair comments, opinions and scores instead of some of the crazy scores the judges gave. I would rush to your show each Monday to listen and really felt it added to my strictly experience. Thank you 😊

Please come back next year. I think you are a great duo. I've always respected James as he doesn't shy away from telling the truth. That's such a good quality. Thanks for everything., See you next year.

Definitely. Please do this again next year, I really enjoyed it.

I loved Leyton I knew was never going to win, but he made me watch strictly every week. I hope he has a fantastic future and good luck to all the finalists in whatever they do next.

Totally agree James about Leighton, he did his own thing too much. I loved watching them bit knew they wouldnt win!! We loved Ellie & Vito so was delighted they won!! Definately come back next year please!! Xx

Yes please repeat this next year . Merry Christmas

Most definitely we want you back and thank you for your commentary, I’ve loved every minute.

Definitely come back next year James. I looked forward to this as much as the Sunday night results show! 👏👏👏

A zillion percent PLEASE keep doing this! I'm in America and absolutely LOVE Strictly... and sadly, RU-vid is the only way in able to "watch" & enjoy it.

Absolutely loved watching this every week, please, please come back next season ❤

I never believed that Layton shouldn’t win. I still think he was the winner. I’m not saying Ellie wasn’t a great dancer, but if we were voting for the best, it wasn’t her. Layton was stopped because people whined on about his previous experience. In ballet and tap, not ballroom and Latin. He worked really hard and was so entertaining.

Please come back next year! I loved your informative comments. It made my Mondays. Happy Holidays!

Really enjoyed your comments and so pleased to see Ella looking well. You definitely must do your show next year.

Yes please come back I have enjoyed your comments on the show 😊

Glad to hear Ella is getting better. Hope you do your series next year. Very much enjoy watching it - honest commentary.

I hadn't decided who I was going to vote for in the final and didn't vote until I'd watched all the dances. I voted for Bobby and Diane as I absolutely loved their show dance and their last dance moved me to tears. I am a traditionalist too and you're spot on about Layton. Yes he is a phenomenal dancer but all throughout the competition he danced too often as a soloist. Yes please come back and do this next year 😊

Please do this again next year. It's so enjoyable and informative.

Ellie and vito were my favourites I’m so pleased they won

Really enjoyed your videos. One VERY good decision by the show this series was not to have any elimination 2 weeks ago. It make the QF weekend a bit flat, but ensured a 3 couple final, which is the perfect number. It would have been a far worse final without Bobby.

Please come back next year. Can't believe how much sense James talked!

Definitely come back next year, have loved your Monday comments, I've watched every series of Strictly (even though I live in Portugal now) and this was the best ever and the best final. Happy Christmas to James and Emmy and wishing you a brilliant New Year. 😘

Please, Please, Please come back and speak 'The Truth' next year. I love your show and always looked forward to finding out what James thought about the show and the dances. Great season for Strictly and well done to Ellie and Vito.

Love this little insight - please come back next year! All of them were worthy winners. I really loved watching Layton and Nikita and they have really done amazing things for representation which ultimately is far more important than the entertainment. Ellie and Vito were brilliant, even with the lift going wrong. I thought the rest of the routine was fabulous. Bobby and Diane were my daughters favourite and she was upset they didn’t win but I think they will be super proud of what they have achieved. See you next year guys. Happy Christmas and get well soon Ella xx

Excellent - definitely come back next year please!

I've enjoyed watching your sessions with Emmy, come back next year.

I agree with everything james said about Ellie and i agee with everybody who loved the journey of everyone

Yes, please come back next year. So informative and truthful. Thanks.

Please do another one next year. Maybe before next series you could do a list of both your favourite dances over the years!

My favourites,Ellie and Vito Congratulations 🥳

Yes, please come back next year! We’ve loved your videos, and have watched every one. Your critiques and explanations made absolute sense, and really enhanced our overall enjoyment of Strictly. We absolutely agree with your comments on Couples Choice - I wish it could be removed from the programme, even though we have seen some beautiful dances under that umbrella in this series. Perhaps some revision of the rules would help? Hoping Ella gets well soon, and that you all have a wonderful Christmas!

Loved this honest commentary every week, Merry Christmas ❤

They were all good but layton was outstanding..he was the real winner 🎉

I've been watching Strictly for years so of course I'm a big fan. Your show has added a fantastic new dimension to Strictly that I don't think they knew was missing. It's given us all an outsiders/insiders unedited view of each show and I have looooooooooved it! Let's be honest, It Takes Two is all well and good but it's sugary. Everyone says the same things, nobody says anything controversial, everyone's fabulous, everyone's been "working so hard", waffle, waflle. Strictly The Truth has given us fans a different take, a different view, a different dimension. I know James is the host (so pleased your little daughter is doing well) but would it be possible to have some more ex-pros on the show next year? Each week or maybe every second week, have a former pro on to dissect something with James. Please keep Emmy there because she's fabulous too, but a little extra dimension next year, especially in terms of expert input/discussion, would really lift your show even more. Thanks so much for the whole season 🙏🏽

Have really enjoyed watching/listening to the truth. Definitely come back again next year.

Thank you James and Emmy for doing this series. Please return next year. I loved the finale of Strictly. For me Ellie and Layton are winners. Their dances were beautiful and not comparable. As i couldn't vote because I am outside of the UK, i was interested in the opinions given on Facebook and Instagram. I did feel that there were a lot of nasty comments especially regarding Layton. Why was that? He was asked to do this show and worked hard every week. I can understand people have their favorites but this was something else and not always fair to him....

Please do come back. Enjoyed this series immensely. 😊

Please do this again next year. Really enjoyed hearing your views. ❤

Layton and Nikita were my favourite. I think they should have won

I want James to be a Judge next year and Ola can do strictly the truth 😊🥰 James speaks such sense in a world that feels they have to sugar coat everything in the best, kindest way 💖 So glad Ellie & Vito won they were a joy to watch and root for💞

Have loved watching the truth with you two, please come back next year ❤

James you should be a Judge on the show, i agree with all your comments.

Yes please do it again next year.Enjoyed your take on all things strictly.

Definately want you back 👏👏👏

Lovely to listen to and watch a professional dancer give such constructive feedback keep it up already looking forward to next year.

Thoroughly enjoyed James Jordan The Truth. Will definitely watch next year all being well !

Its a yes from me to come back next year. I have always admired James for his dancing ability. Amazing 😂🎉❤

Love your comments, pleace do it again next year

Yes, please come back next year! Looking forward to it already!

Please come back next year...I've loved listening to you both! You usually confirmed what I was thinking at the time! 👍👏👏 Have a lovely Christmas and a happy new year! 🙏🍀✨️❤️✨️❤️✨️❤️✨️

Definitely want you back next year.

Hope you do this again next year. Your critique has been spot on. Glad little Ella is on the mend ❤

I really enjoyed watching you both this year. Please come back next year. I’m glad Ella is feeling better. Merry Christmas to you both xx

The two guy should have won. 💯💯💯💯💯💯they were amazing. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾Leyton and Nikkita were amazing 👍🏾

Loved your show. Please come back. 👌👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎄🎄🎄🎄🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Definitely looking forward to your chats next year! Really enjoyed the truth 😊❤

Oh, yes, please, absolutely want you to do this next year. It's been great watching your analyses of the rounds. I thought the final was brilliant, I loved all the dances, all my votes went to Ellie and Vito - and although I thought getting out of the earlier lift wasn't particularly clean, neither that or the "save" on the last lift was enough to take anything away from that amazing show dance. I'm surprised to hear people are saying Danny Mac was better than Layton. Danny was brilliant - and I was a huge fan of him in his time on the show - but he was a typical "been through stage school" type dancer - above the zero-experienced dancers but nowhere near Layton, and lost out to Ore because of that previous experiences. In a way I'm glad Layton didn't win because I think the flak he would have got for it in some quarters would have spoiled the win for him and I hope the BBC don't invite pro dancers to compete against the celebrities again. As it is, everyone who made the final was a winner in their own way. I felt a bit sorry for them this morning because after all that living and breathing Strictly it's suddenly over and there's just a void - I feel the same the morning after the Olympics' closing ceremony, that feeling of "What now?" I'm not a big fan of cold weather but, my goodness, Strictly makes it a treat rather than a trial and I can't wait for next year. (No change there then! 😂)

i have absolutely loved watching these videos every Monday, please bring it back next year and every year!

Please come back next year. Always can't wait for Mondays to hear what you both have to say and watch you both.

Hoping to see Emmy and James back next year - but is there any chance of Ola also joining the panel? Happy with the Ellie and Vito win!!!

Definitely do this again. Loved it. Also agreed that any of the 3 could have Won 👏🙏💙💖

Please definitely do this again next year…loved it! Have a blessed Christmas 🎄

So happy with the result Ellie and vito were my favourites since they did the passo on week 5 I think it was and looks like a lot of people agreed 👏👏👏

I’ve really enjoyed watching you both this year! Please come back next year! All the best to Ella, hope she feels better soon!

Definitely come back next year. I've loved it and agreed with you all the way. See you next year❤

I find the judges on Strictly irritating, particularly the women, so it is a pleasure to come here and listen to your discussion. Please do it next year unless, James, you are invited to be a judge.

Yh definitely keep on with this next year you two! Definitely appreciate taking in your views before providing mu own! Thx Emmy for expressing how much you enjoyed seeing Layton and Nikita dance every week- really meant a lot, as there’s definitely plenty of us that agree with you! Their dances and partnership is the only reason I decided to watch Strictly every week this year, and so many of their dances (but esp. the AT) will remain in my memory for a long time. Not even going to bother on the pro point due to how often it’s said nearly every season, but I’m very glad the BBC ensures there’s pp, of many different talents and levels on the show, as they’re people from eclectic backgrounds learning the niche aspects involved in ballroom and Latin dancing, and entertaining an audience (with Lakita at the forefront) whilst they’re at it. Sure, those that are trained dancers in other fields will pick up some things, but unlearning, relearning, perfecting, performing and entertaining is beyond astounding- it’d be a different story if a pro ballroom and Latin dancer were ever to be introduced as a celebrity though. Nowfor the countdownto next yesr, fuelled by the emotions and excellence provoked by Lakita this year! P.S. how people can say British society as a whole is woke is beyond me- have you ever lived in any place outside of major hubs? Ain’t no way you’d have many of them voting for two guys dancing, especially if they don’t like less traditional aesthetics or any love between them (platonic or otherwise portrayed through dance and conversation)- people want to identify with the person they vote for, and there’s no way that’s going to be a couple they’re intolerant of, as that’s gonna blind out any sententious conversation or thought in that situation- Ellie is what our society is comfortable with, and she was picked over Bobby as she’s consistently performed very well (just like Layton) from the very beginning - the audience like seeing skilled dancers dance for their entertainment, and Ellie perfectly fit the description. Had Amanda still been in, I’m sure I might’ve been a bit surprised, but it’s still evident the extent to which British society as a whole are tolerant of difference and/ or change.

I definitely want you two back next year. I really look forward to your reviews, always fair and honest and I agree, it was the best final hands down that we've had for the last ten years, everyone in the final I liked and of course Ellie and Vito winning was the cherry on the cake for me but if Layton or Bobby had won I'd have been happy.

100% See you both next year, Thank you for being so Fab-u-lous in recent weeks!!👍

I’ve loved this series, so hope you are back next year. Lovely seeing Ella looking well 😊

Layton and Nikita were absolutely brilliant to watch ❤️ Iam delighted that Ellie and Vito won I just loved .I wasn't that impressed with strictly this year the magic wasn't in it for me , missed Gio ..I hope this show is back again next year I so looked forward to Monday ❤❤❤❤

Yes please, do come back next year. Have loved watching your videos this year and hearing your critiques and opinions of the show.

Thanks James for doing this. Ex pat now in Florida and can only rely on RU-vid showing the dances, no judge marks or judge commentary so always relied on you for the best info so please come back next year!,

Yes, please come back next year. It's always brilliant hearing your well considered critiques, James, of both the dancing and judging. You are totally genuine and always fair and constructive and certainly seem totally in touch with the viewing public. I certainly feel that from you both. This year was extra magical for some reason. Just extra potent magic dust in the Strictly chemistry. Pure joy to watch even through the tears. Get well soon, Ellie ready for Santa's visit. Thank you both. Merry Christmas. xxx

yes, yes, yes definitely want you back next year. It's been good to get a professionals thoughts. Thanks James and Emmy 💗💗

As I live in Iceland I don't get to see the show but I follow the contest on RU-vid and TikTok. Each week I have also looked forward to hearing your opinion of the show. So yes please come back again next year and thank you so much for this time around. Merry Christmas :-)

Yes please to next year! I do so enjoy listening to your take, each week. Until next year! 👏 💃🕺 ✨️ So sorry to hear that little Ella has been so poorly. Glad she is over the worst and well on the road to being better completely. It's very scary when they get such high temperatures. Wshing you all a great Christmas! 🎄🎅

Yes please. Not everyone is on Twitter. James's reviews are the best

Please - absolutely come back next year A really great commentary from you both. Loved this series of Strictly - Krishnan the Angelas Annabel and the finalists of course - terrific!

Thanks for doing this weekly discussion James. Please carry on next year!

Really enjoyed your comments about every show and agree with them. Please come back again next year. Especially what James said about Laytons show dance. It was fantastic but didn’t show the ballroom and Latin skills he’d picked during his time on Strictly. Saying that it was a brilliant final and I really enjoyed it ❤

What a final. So happy for ellie and vito. Xx
