October 21, 20177 yr I was very happy with Davood and Joe getting their chests out *.* Omg why do I have a HORRIBLE feeling it'll be a really bad worst case scenario bottom 2 of like Mollie and Alexandra? :lol:
October 21, 20177 yr One part of me really can't see both Simon and Brian escaping the bottom 2 but then Britain just can't get anything right when it comes to voting :lol:
October 22, 20177 yr Author I keep saying this every week, but it's true: the standard is the highest it's been amongst everyone this year for different reasons (Simon and Brian excluded. They're just getting worse by the minute) and for me, it's so hard to call who will be there until the end. Debbie and Giovanni's rumba last night though :wub: I always say the gold standard of that dance for me is when Rachel Stevens did it on her series in 2008 and got three 10s. Their rumba was up there with that, no question. I reckon she could be in until the end if she keeps that standard up. Likewise, Gemma and Jonnie are improving every week, especially Jonnie with his quickstep this week, you could tell how much he enjoyed it more than his dances since the jive. Did love Aston and Mollie's waltz and Viennese waltz respectively too. Mollie's such a natural with the ballroom dances, and Aston's was as Craig and Shirley said a nice mix of contemporary and traditional and I loved that it was just back to basics, and showing that he can dance without any frills attached.
October 22, 20177 yr Do you know what's the average score Craig gives? It always seems to be half of what everyone else gives. I prefer his scoring to be honest. It gives them something to improve on as the weeks go on
October 22, 20177 yr Author Yeah true :lol: On paper it's good, but if they get say an ex contestant they just don't have the same level of expertise ofc, so they're probably gonna be a bit more generous than perhaps needed :lol: Yeah but that's on a Tuesday i think and tbf he's done it for years and managed it so is probably used to it. One thing that did spring to mind as to why Bruno wasn't there this week. He was (although I don't know if he still is) Bananarama's choreographer, and they're rehearsing for their tour atm. Maybe that's where he was?
October 22, 20177 yr I feel like it’s Alexandra’s to lose at this point. Her getting some low scores near the middle is actually good for her as it gives her a bit of a journey.
October 22, 20177 yr Author Quite happy with that dance off tonight, Simon and Brian were both equally awful so not fussed that Brian went over Simon! Loved the group dance tonight as well, very Bob Fosse-esque!
October 22, 20177 yr I prefer Simon I think as a personality and he'll go soon anyway, people are moaning about Simon staying but it's not like he knocked out Gemma or Alexandra is it? :lol:
October 23, 20177 yr I wanted Brian out this week, but Simon needs to leave next week, so I really don't care, haha. I thought Mollie's VW was the best dance of the night. So beautiful and elegant. :wub: Also the third most watched performance behind Alexandra and Debbie. That makes for a really good top 3, that's for sure.
October 24, 20177 yr Songs and dances for this week revealed http://www.digitalspy.com/tv/strictly-come...ances-revealed/ Halloween a loose theme as ever but I expect it's more about the dances :P
October 29, 20177 yr My favourites last night was Anton (can't believe I am saying that) Davood, Alexandra and Debbie.
November 5, 20177 yr Mollie and Aston were in the dance off. The judges voted to save Mollie/send Aston home :o :o :o
November 5, 20177 yr Mollie and Aston were in the dance off. The judges voted to save Mollie/send Aston home :o :o :o What a stupid decision by Shirley.
November 5, 20177 yr I actually agreed with Aston going, sure neither of them should have been bottom 2 over Ruth (technique wise, I still f***ing love her) but he was 2nd bottom on the leaderboard (the 4 was definitely a bit harsh to say the least though) and as the judges keep stating he's always adding extra bits that detract from the style of dance he's actually meant to be doing (well, that's on Jeannette really I guess as she's choreographs it :lol:). When they say "it depends on the dance off", it really does and I think Mollie's dance this time around was better. It's good that they kept to that actually and didn't just save Aston because overall he is the much better dancer. I always love a good shock although i wouldn't be saying it if it was Aleandra who slipped into the bottom 2 :kink:
