BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans think they've spotted clue to Chris MacCausland score
by Jordan Coussins, https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/authors/jordan-coussins/ · Birmingham LiveStrictly Come Dancing fans think they have spotted a "clue" to Chris MacCausland's score this week. They reckon he is on course for a perfect ten.
The comedian is set to return to the dance floor with partner Dianne Buswell for week eight, performing a Couple's Choice routine to John Lennon's Instant Karma!
One Reddit user queried: "Do you think Chris can finally score a 10 tomorrow with his couples choice ? " Another fan suggested: "Shirley (and maybe Anton) probably will. they don’t really know how to score couples choices properly so they usually go high."

A third added: "More than likely. Couple's Choice seems an automatic 9 or 10 unless someone is really dire."
"If its contemporary about his blindness, he'll get 4 10s," another commented. Chris lost his sight at the age of 22.
This comes after Strictly judge Craig Revel Horwood didn't mince his words about the comedian on It Takes Two. Host Fleur East asked the 59 year old why he has been so critical with his scoring towards Chris.
Craig responded: "He still needs to work on a lot of things. Yes, I think that people at home are falling in love with him, which is absolutely fine, but technically his frame is not great. "I mean it has improved, don't get me wrong, but he needs to work on that."
"He needs to work on his posture, so still a lot of work to do."
Despite Craig's remarks, the comedian remains a firm favourite among viewers. Strictly Come Dancing legend Vincent Simone has hinted at a possible return to the show this season and has thrown his support behind Chris for the win. In an interview with 10bet, he praised Chris and Diane Buswell's partnership, saying: "I absolutely love Chris McCausland and Diane Buswell.
"Chris is so funny, and you can see that he brings that comedic edge to the show. I also love the fact that he looks so chilled, and you can tell that he is clearly having a ball learning the different routines and techniques. The man has got skill."
