Think Gavin could be going this week.....unless Ann stops getting the public behind her.

Wasn`t Scott brilliant...a complete natural, its hard to tell who is the proffesional and who isn`t with him and Natalie.


Nicky

I agree. What is it with the camera work. Enough to make you sea sick. All that twirling around. I just wanna see them dance.

Scott, Jimmi and Kara really good.

Felicity dont like criticism does she. She pursed her lips when they told her, her mistakes.

What it is with Gavin and taking his top off. Just dance man, stop preening.

I definitely agree with you Tess,i thought tonight's show was just great.

Jimmy's eyes! sinister wooo and Brendan's wig!!!.... the costumes keep getting better every series don't they?

One small crit. I do wish the camera men would let us see the footwork more,it does annoy me when sometimes important stages/angles are missed.

Wonder who'll go this week?

Mau

Another great week .... loved the costumes ... especially the mens.

Natalie (Scott's partner) always seems to do an incredible job on the choreography, they were great this week as always.
Jimi's make-up was really great ... I oonder if some of the make-up people will be on TT this week?

I won't comment further at the moment, in case anyone is reading this but hasn't seen tonughts performances yet.

Except to say .... Well worth watching!!!!

Tess

About half an hour to go before Blast Off.

Really looking forward to it. It is touch and go whether Michelle will take part. Brendan is back, but she has hurt her ankle and is on crutches. Presumably she will get a 'buy' through to next week.

Pleeeeeeeeaaaaaasssssse, let Gavin go this week. What is wrong with his face, it doesnt move.

Paso wotsit tonight. Have my red and black dress on ready for the bullfight. I shall whirl and twirl with the rest of them in my black patent shoes.

Looking forward to Anton and Ann. Good entertainment, if not good dancing.

See Alesha was flogging her new albumn on It Takes Two. Convenient that she is a judge, but also has her own career to promote too. Cynical moi, never.
pmsl

Ian is taller than Brenden which may have helped Michelle

I think Gavin should have gone.

Fab show. Really enjoyed it.

Still irritated by Alesha. She is really grating on me. Urgh.

Peter or Gavin to go I think. The Woodentops spring to mind.

Scott and Matt were wonderful Mean and moody tango, and really springy charleston. Gotta give them credit.

Ann .............................. what can anyone say about that gal. You have to give her credit for just being there. Her Peter Pan act was hilarious. Love Anton, the way he shepherds her around the floor.

Michelle did very well with Ian. In fact better than she did with Brendan. Maybe Ian suits her style better.

Time will tell who will go.

Sooo looking forward to tonight.

I am wearing my Charleston dress too - lots of fringes and a headband too. All in white and sparkles and remembered my fake tan (white dresses do not look good on white / pasty bodies lol)

Limbered up this morning with a Zumba class so all ready to go.

I hope the scoring is a bit more fair this week - it is starting to get on my nerves the way some of the good dancers are marked very harshly for small mistakes and others are given nearly the same just for turning up and making it to the end ( Len & Bruno.) Craig can seem harsh, but at least he is consistent.

Off to watch now xx

Saturday night again. Hurrah.

I am all ready in my Charleston dress with fringes and hairband with a feather. Got my gold dancing shoes on.
La la, la la, la la la la Charleston .........................

Please, no more Felicity this week. I have heard her on radio, seen her on two tv shows, talking about how she would like to win, but does not think she will, she is into fitness, yes she is 64, yes she is bendy, yes she does pilates ..............................

Enough already. Just dance dear, we will decide.

Hope Alesha has a sore throat, so I wont have to hear her incessant ramblings about what SHE wants to see.

Half an hour to go.
wooooo hoooooo

Less than an hour before "kick-off" looking forward to tonight's performances, but for some reason, I am rather nervous.

Will have to go now to sort out my meal before 6pm.


Tess

I was away so missed it on Saturday but read the spoiler on digital spy in an internet café.

My condolences to Brendan on his bereavement, and to Ann on hers.

Brendan is my favourite male dancer.

I shall be pleased to see Ian dancing; I miss him, Darren, Lilia and Mathew, too.

I'm off on holiday in the morning for two weeks but have set the record button!!!

Strictly should be lots of fun on Saturday night with the Tango and Charleston.

Mau

Have now heard that Ian Waite will partner Michelle while Brendan is away (in New Zealand).
Didn't see anything about it on Take Two though, I was expecting it to be confirmed on air.

Julia, will you be doing The Dance of the Seven Veils" instead of the Feather Dance this year?

Tess

Julia, I hope you have retained the Ostrich Feathers for your Famed Fan Dance.:o))>pmsl.**M**.

No, I didn't hear what Felicity said, but noticed that she put her hand over her mouth when talking to the judges! Think it must have been something short (but perhaps not sweet!)

Tess

Just seen that Brendan's father has died in NewZealand. So Brendan will be going home and will miss next weeks performance.

I though that he seemed a little subdued. Noi wonder, after getting such sad news.

My thoughts go out to Brendan and his family.

Tess

Did anyone hear what Felicity said ?

BBC have apologised because of her bad language !

I too watched the show + eviction last night, and thought Paul should go this week.
Saw TT about the dresses,and every week they just get better,must be great getting to wear them....beautiful.

Agree with everything you've said Helen.some class dancers this year.

Matt to WIN! keeep dancing!

Mau xx

....also loved Flavia's performance :O)
