General Chat

Gotta Agree with Tess.

For me Sophie just doesnt show conviction at all but I did think the dance suited her, the steps are there. But if you watch Suzanna, she gives it plenty of wellie I expected a top notch dance from her and Kevin this week as Kevin is the world champion so are his parents, Blackpool must be like his second home.

I felt proper sorry for Mark this week, the Rumba is such a hard dance for a male or female celeb dancer , its a dance were the male presents his girl., he can put much more in to the routine just not a good dance for him I hope he stays.Dave just isnt a dancer but as Craig said it shows he has been taught the tango. I have a feeling Fiona and Anton maybe in the dance off this week, its like watching your Nan and Grandad at a family doo showing that they can still throw some shapes.

I adore Patrick however I dont think he deserved a 10 from Darcy they fluffed the last lift and to me it look like he was scared of flinging her in to the steps they had just dance down. Nice to see him at the top of the leader board.

Abby did well this week, she can rock a short black bob. :-D Ben looked clumsy doing the jive, but as much I am not a fan of Christina's I thought she was brill to dance so well on a brusied foot when she could hardly walk afterwards true pro. Nice dance from Ashley and Ola as well.

Cant say I missed Natalie but wish her a speedy recovery. My bottom 2 this week are Anton and Fiona and Karen and Dave.

Edit PS.....
No one has mentioned seeing Fridays tke2 John Borrowman was on it and no one has commented on the remarks he made about Natalie, he suggested that the public wasnt all that taken by her and she will probably go out in the next 2 weeks or so ................really you dont say ;-)

Didn't vote for anyone this week. So can't moan if one of my favourites are voted off.

Mark's bald head was a wig. Didn't think that he was as entertaining this week and he has made little improvement in his dancing.

dave did attempt some dance steps, and he has made some improvements, thought that he was better than Bruno's comments, but he was however rather poor.

AnnCardiff, I agree that Mark or Dave should go tonight, but having a secret yen for Dave to get to Blackpool!

Sophie E-B was a lot better this week, I thought that she was over marked last week, she deserves to stay (not I think that she may be in the dance off).

Always a shame to see someone go out the week before Blackpool, so will feel a little sad whatever the result.

Natalie has got a "bye" this wee. But if not fit next week, she will have to dropout.

I hope that she is well enough to continue, so that if and when she leaves, it will be under normal conditions.

Poor Ben was harshly judged by Craig this week. Felt a little sorry for him. I think that Craig likes the "pumping action" as demonstrated by Ian Waite on Takes Two. Ben was NOT pumping!!

Noooooooooooooo :-S :-S

*groans....am sure that Hayley is busy voting Mark and Dave in :-D

Mark and Dave - both rubbish - one of them has to go tomorrow night

Patrick was awesome!!!

Dave had more than a passing resemblance to John Sargeant with his dance.

If he gets to go to Blackpool it will be a travesty!

:-(

Kill me now.... :-( :-(

Oh dear I reckon Mark will be in the dance off as little content in that performance

I think so GB.

Has Mark really gone bald or is it makeup

Does that mean she will get a bye through to next week

Natalie has pulled out of the competition tonight. She fainted twice in rehearsals apparently!

No Brucie tonight either, but I am quite pleased about that.

:-D

Telegraph I think for 1 Ann.

It takes two this evening Craig was back, when asked by Zoe with regards the results, he said that the judges score them and pretty much that is how the leader board looks, and I quote " the public are the ones that vote and they will always support the underdog(s) " which is more or less what I said last night :-D

I haven't seen that either Hayley what paper was it in?

Ooooh I love a bit of goss, but no, I have not read that!

To be honest, do we really know the results of the viewers vote? I am not saying it is phoney, but do they publish it any where?

Remember a few years ago, there was a surprise winner, when all along it had been someone else that was tipped to win!

Nevertheless, I shall still keep watching it on Saturdays.

:-D :-D :-D :-D

Not that I am one for gossip as you well know BUT I am sure you have all seen the media attention today with regards the rift between Ola and Karen, however in true media style only half the story has been told.


what the papers have said: " Ola flees rehersals in floods of tears as Karen tears in to her, Ola flew to James arms sobbing as she didnt know what prompt the outburst......hmmmm could be that Ola was slagging Karen off for not teaching Dave to dance and crowing what a wonderful dancer and hit with the ladies Ashley is and when confronted did not like Karens reply.....so here starts the hate Dave and Karen campaigne by the media :-D

I watch avidly OH only half watches whilst reading the Sunday papers. Last night he said "This show is rubbish they vote off the better dancers and keep the rubbish ones. I could dance better than some of them ..... Utter cr** "

Very true in parts, but the jury is out on OHs dancing. ;-)

Hayley you comments about Natalie have made me laugh! I shall be chuckling about them today at work! :-D

Yep you are right about the voting, it is a great money spinner too! Someone has to pay for the frocks!

I think if Sophie doesn't buck her ideas up, she will be in the dance off in a few weeks too.

I do hate it when the dance off is an accomplished dancer against a dud one, there is no contest really, and a foregone conclusion.

Still, Take Two tonight will be good, and no fluffs next Saturday!

:-D :-D :-D

I voted for three couples this week, Dave and Mark were not among them but Abbey was!

I had a horrible feeling that Abbey would be in the dance off along with another very good dancer.

Can only be pleased that Abbey stayed. Sorry for Rachel though, it really was her best week - and who knows, she might have turned a corner and started to dance well from now on.

Dave and his Karin? both looked very sad when they realised that they were through and Rachel and Pasha were in the dance-off.
They were the only couple not to show pleasure when they knew they were through.
Just shows what decent people they are.
Didn't think that mark was much better than Dave this week - in fact I'm pretty sure that Bruno called Mark "Dave"
YEs, I know that Bruce called Darcy "Dave" I was beginning to think that it was some sort of running joke ... popping Dave's name in wherever possible.!

I might actually vote for a good dancer next week too - and/or one that I think has been under marked and should be higher on the leader board.

Looking forward to Takes Two next week - especially on Monday and Tuesday.

As much as I like Sophie I think her last two performances have pretty poor :-(

Hayley I can't ever see Natalie being nominated for a BAFTA :-D :-D :-D
