Am I the only person who thought Caroline was dull as ditchwater tonight then? Her ballroom was too dull/tight/tied up with "emotion or rather self recrimination that she cocked up. And that salsa was just plain outright dull.

The two more contemporary dances from Mark and Frankie I thought were superb though, was really interested to see a Laaaaaaaaads Essex boy Mark really go for the contemporary one, impressed me. Jake mucked it up tonight.

Slightly disagree about Caroline. The 2nd dance was good but not a 40. She was the best dance on the night though and they had already given Simon 39 so guess they had no choice.

Frankies dances are very good technically but there is no character to them. Mark is the opposite, technically not as good but makes up for it in character

Think the dance off will be Jake and Simon, Jake to go as Simon is on the tour. Possibly Mark in place of Simon. Jake was also the worst dancer of the night. He isn't a bad dancer but he started quite strong and hasn't really progressed to the extent Simon and Mark have. As Len said the public love a journey and Mark has had that

Also Karen's tears, even the arguments on Towie are more convincing.

I am impressed with the way Caroline has improved. In teh first few programmes she looked like she would never make it this far, but she has shown constant improvement

I think Jake might be for the chop tonight, his dances the last two week haven't been up to standard as his usual stuff. Seems to have plateaued

I liked Caroline's salsa, but her perfect score was an insult to Pixie; remember the Flash Gordon style gladiator routine, and her samba? They were 40's. Ok it's just light entertainment but what a travesty, the rest of them look so ordinary now.
Plus, this week, Len says he isn't bothered about the choreography as he says he knows the contestants don't put it together.

He's going to have to be pretty bloody bold to pull that off.
