October 20, 20195 yr I agree on Will I put him in my finalist list a few weeks ago! I still think the winners one of Alex Catherine Emma B Kelvin Or Will. I don’t think they’ll be the top 5 but I just can’t see anyone outside of those winning. Saffron I just can’t take too tbh. I think it’s because she makes out she’s this inspirational like figure in her VTS it’s a bit cringe. With this series I’m enjoying that we’ve seen 3 couples so far top the leaderboard and then everyone else has had moments at different times too it’s unpredictable week on week for sure! Bar Chris too hasn’t everyone scored more than 30 now that’s pretty good for this stage isn’t it?
October 22, 20195 yr Halloween week dances: Alex & Neil: Street/Commercial (Ghostbusters) Catherine & Johannes: Cha-Cha (Scared Of The Dark) Chris & Karen: Samba (Everybody Backstreet's Back) Emma & Anton: Tango (Toccata and Fugue in D Minor) Emma & Aljaz: Charleston (A Little Party Never Killed Nobody) Karim & Amy: Paso Doble (Smalltown Boy) Kelvin & Oti: Tango (Bad Guy) Michelle & Giovanni: Foxtrot (Addam's Family theme) Mike & Katya: Tango (What You Waiting For) Saffron & AJ: Jive (Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic) Will & Janette: Jive (Casper) I thought Halloween week might be our first 40, perhaps that will be Karim. I can't see Kelvin getting it for Tango. Alex getting another good dance, if Charleston was up her street I think the fun of a Street routine on Halloween week will be too. Mike's time is surely up this week, I can't see how Katya can really make a Tango fun/stupid like she usually does to try and hide the lack of ability.
October 22, 20195 yr They're really trying to give Alex a bit of a push at the moment, aren't they? Couldn't be a much better dance for her to follow that Charleston with to give her a bit of momentum.
October 23, 20195 yr I feel like it’s Mike or Chris going this week. There’s a chance Mike could get a boost from being in dance off last week though. Can see Alex continuing her streak though with that dance. Wonder what the running order will be. Catherine and Chris’s tracks feel very opening routine like as they’re the biggest party starter like tracks on there. Kelvin opening last week should mean he’s on towards the end this week.
October 26, 20195 yr A lot of versions from the singers and the orchestra of these songs leave a lot to be desired.
October 26, 20195 yr i thought of the music didn’t with the dances at all ‘smalltown boy’ for a paso was especially WTF
October 26, 20195 yr I usually love Halloween week but tonight was very blah. Strange song choices and dances what didnt match at all to the music. Probably the weakest week so far for me. I did however give all my votes to Catherine tonight she really needs them so I hope she manages to avoid the dance off. But I feel tonight’s dance off could be unpredictable I’m expecting a bit of a surprise. Not long for the spoiler... Edit Catherine is actually OUT. The judges saved Mike In the dance off ^^^^ the blacked out spoiler contains the result of the dance off / who’s eliminated Edited October 26, 20195 yr by Jordan Lee

October 26, 20195 yr Motsi and Bruno saved Catherine, Craig and Head Disgrace Shirley saved Mike - I mean WTF So the first time this series there’s been a difference of opinion between the judges. I always wish when it’s 2-2 it should go to who won the public vote rather than what one judge thinks but meh. Catherine just had a naff night tonight. I was just about to say I expected she may have done better on the public vote yet someone on DS stated she could’ve actually come second and still been in the dance off. It’s obv her on screen sisters cursing her they should’ve stayed away 😭😭. Gah I’ll really miss Catherine she had so much more to give. Alex is the journey female of the series now though.

Not much of a journey if she is handed 9's for awful routines :lol:
October 26, 20195 yr Michelle was the only one tongiht who *really* impressed me, I thought most people were a bit below what they're capable of. Alex was great too but I think they overmarked due having Kevin learn it last minute. She was a bit laboured, you could see her really thinking about the next move at all times and that affected the flow and the way it looked for me. Karim's Paso I thought was quite bad, technically yes good but I can't stand how he puts in all the spins and twists and stuff like that, just because he can do them doesn't mean it needs to be done every routine. It just doesn't fit in a Paso and that shows in his score, sometimes it embellishes the routine but other times it takes away from the feel and technique. Mike was absolutely terrible and I thought even the 6s were really pushing it. When you look at Craig giving that a point higher than Emma Barton's Tango!! What the actual f*** at that spoiler.... She had so much more to give and whilst she did have the worse score, they totally overmarked Mike to a ridiculous degree so really it should have been the opposite.
October 26, 20195 yr Something must have happened in Catherine's dance for the judges to vote for Mike.

Emma Barton is often underrmarked tbh. She deserves better in general tbh although I guess out of everyone she has the biggest commitment outside of strictly so she probably is the least rehearsed contestant. With Michelle drag race has already been filmed in full hasn’t it? Asides from Mike and Karim who have day jobs on BBC Strictly is everyone else’s main project currently isn’t it.

Yep, Drag Race UK was filmed ages ago and S12 of the US one plus AS5 have been filmed so Michelle will be focusing mostly on it too.
October 27, 20195 yr Mike's dance would have been easier to watch if he was in classic ballroom tails rather than looking like an oversized rabbit, dancing with the wicked witch of the west in those stripy tights. As for all the "spooky " introductions..... stop already
October 27, 20195 yr Author Well that wasn't Catherine and Johannes' best dance, but how anyone can say Mike and Katya did better in that dance off is obviously smoking something weird or getting whispered in the ear by the producers. Then again, given what Craig and Shirley did to Aston and Janette two years ago that's not surprising how they voted tonight. Alex did so well last night, she made Kevin look like the celebrity rather than the pro. Her breakthrough dance for sure. Saffron and AJ were great as well (was he meant to be Harvey, bytheby?) Hope Will recovers OK for next week, I'm gutted we didn't get to see his and Janette's Jive.
October 27, 20195 yr Tessa has the same expression week after week she irritates me, claudia is so so much stronger.catherine was a surprise exit.
