Lee knew himself he was going, and was quite gracious about it.

Onwards and upwards.

That back bend was amazing.

My word, hadn't a lot of them really upped their game. Such a good standard and so early in the series. I nearly had to look away with some of the brave lifts! Yes, Katya does some amazing choreography! I always feel sorry for the contestant when the judges criticise choreography as it isn't their fault, but can affect their scores.

I felt for Kate when she slipped, but she did make light of it. And she carried on without any fuss.

I too was very impressed with Katya. Her stomach and legs must be made of concrete to do that back bend! I would like to think I could do it...………..but no blooming chance. :-D :-D :-D :-D

I do like Kate, she seems a nice person. Ashley was good and I thought Shaun was actually trying hard this week too. difficult to know who will go out. Doesn't seem to be an obvious one.

All seems to have got very serious very quickly the quality of celebrity dancers this year is excellent. So nice as well that we do not have to put up with I love me Anton so early in the series.

Katya is very clever, Sean very impressive. So was Graham. Felt for Kate and that stumble but well recovered.To much faffing about with Vick go bored waiting. Ashley and Pasha was very good. Good quick step from Faye. Stacy and Kevin was excellent.

I vote for Ashley Stacy and Kate as I enjoyed theirs dances the most.

:-D

Well, some upped their game this week! Even Shaun seemed to be taking it seriously.

Love Kate, she is coming on in leaps and bounds, and Katie too seems to have beaten her nerves.

I think Faye and Ashley are the forerunners. But I believe they have had previous training. I would like to think a non-dancer would win it overall, but somehow I don't think it will happen.

Not quite sure who will be booted out, as some of the less talented dancers are very popular. Hard call.

I didn't vote last week - first time - couldn't think who i wanted to keep in.

Shame to see Anton go but it was the better option. I dont like Sean - made up my mind he is not taking anything seriously including his partner. i think they should given them at least 2 weeks before they start voting people off.

I do like Faye - most were good Danny/Charles Dr Ranj/Kate/Joe/ Vick

Grahame a bit over the top, but may get better -
Lauren tried her best but somehow not warming to her -
i think Stacey will be good - but wish she would shut up as talks too much about nothing and is getting on my nerves

Katie think she is brave after all she has been through - but the makeup team have made her into a barbie doll and i dont think she is very graceful, may be better at Latin

Still dont actually know who to vote for this year. First time ever i have no ideas from the start.

Well that wasn't a surprise :-D

I think Susannah will be well pleased at that result....I know if I had been in her shoes I would :-D :-D

Annin Glos,
I bought a book a few months ago in a charity shop that Anton had written,as a friend idolises him and travels a long way to see him and Erin when they are on their theatre tours.
Can’t remember the title,but it wasn’t new..

Ann, Bruno is always OTT, he loves attention.

Annx

Annx Report 30 Sep 2018 16:06

I agree with most of the comments and didn't know about Susannah and fox hunting. I felt a bit sorry for her, but she needs to smile more!

I think it isn't just past dance experience that gives an advantage, being used to performing in front of an audience/film crew as a singer/interviewer etc is a big advantage nerve wise too!

I think Joe might surprise us with ballroom dances as he has great flexibility and posture and seems to want to get things right. On the other hand he's been able to introduce a bit of his own freestyle in his dances up to now....not so much freedom with ballroom!

Is Bruno overdoing it a bit and going OTT or is it me?

It is a beautiful song and very emotive if you have memories like that Madge.

I think it would be good if, for once, the public didn't keep the worst dancer in. She hasn't even really got comedic 'value' so maybe they will vote Suzanne and Anton out. I do like Anton but feel he would be fine with being voted out, he has got a lot of other things going on. did I read he has written a novel? Or was that somebody else.

Awwwww Madge....It is such a beautiful song with lovely words<3 <3

Madge

Madge Report 30 Sep 2018 10:36

Suzanne is not popular with the public due to her views on fox hunting. I don't think Anton is that good either he used to be an old favorite but even that is wavering now. One trick pony, not a good partnership or even believable.

I sobbed all the way through Vick;s dance to somewhere as it was the song they carried my mum in to the church ( my choice by Matt Munro) and Vick dance beautifully.

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 30 Sep 2018 10:10

I didn't see all the dances but I did like Charles quick step...think it's so difficult for the men as they have to lead but I'm sure their partners help them out ;-) :-D

I did like the girl who danced to Somewhere thought she looked the part and had such elegant arms but the fact I like the song could have something to do with it :-D

I don't particularly like Joe either...it will be interesting to see how he copes with the ballroom dances :-0

Think it is going to be very difficult for Susannah to make the grade...even the mist around her feet didn't help. Such a shame because I think she is putting in the work but you've either got or you haven't got style...sadly for her she hasn't :-(

I liked Faye and thought it was very good for week 2.
I wish they would split the first weeks into 2 separate shows as it does get a bit confusing when we don’t really know them yet.

Shirley is being honest in her judging.May seem harsh,but she is saying what she sees and not what they want to hear,and ,if I recall,Karen did apologise at the end of the dance.

Madge

Madge Report 30 Sep 2018 09:31

For week 2 I thought most of the couples showed very good quality of dancers.

I have forgot Graham and Oti's dance already.
Katie's paso was very stompy.
I thought Ashley Vick Kate Ranj and Lauren did very well thought Shirley was harsh with some for week 2. Danny seem very please with himself, take a bow Danny opps ....you certainly did. I can not take to Lee or Joe. I even think Katya lost timing at one point trying to drag Sean back.


Dear Anton please hang up your strictly shoes :-D
