I'm not sure if there will be an overlap this week. Strictly finishes at 810 and there's a guest act opening the show on X Factor this week so if that should shunt the first performance till after Strictly.

They could get away with it then I didn't realise! My instinct says Ryan will be on first anyway, it feels like last week was his moment of redemption so they could get rid of the lifeline vote without being *too* obvious about it and now this week he will be disposed of.

Another very dated theme then, although the Motown week was surprisingly not as misguided as I feared.

Ryan and Matt look LUDICROUS in the intro's (which I guess is the point, but STILL)

Sister Sledge *.* :wub:

Ouch! They're still alive :o

If they've got a new song coming out, why didn't they perform that as well?

I'd estimate about 80% of that audience have no idea who they are :lol:

No Lifeline vote then?

Oh noes, Saara on first

Saara, gets the Strictly slot :cheer:

Saara's on first? Bye Bye then

Honey G in the end! :w00t: :cheer:

Why does Saara sound more Finnish when she's putting on the Geordie accent?

Haven't seen all this series but doesn't she always get bottom 2 then get saved by being actually a good singer in comparison?

Strictly is done before Saara. Hopefully people will have swapped over in time to see her.

Wasn't sure about the song but that was actually really good!

Ugh! Really don't like this song. I think it's enough, it's enough for her! :angel: Bottom 2 and bye bye tomorrow.

That was pretty good, really suited her actually.

That wasn't QUITE the arrangement I was hoping they'd go for. But it was totally Saara and she was on fire vocally, so if this is to be the end then it's going out on top.
