Lauren's dance felt a bit over-thought. You could see her thinking "ok I do this now... then, um, what next... oh yes this... now it's this bit..."

It didn't flow... it felt like a succession of pieces.

Thought Graeme's opening dance was great. His slip wasn't his fault, I think he stood on something on the surface.

6.6.6.6 - no way

How did Stacey manage to be so serious. Great choreography from Kevin.

Yes that was superb. I really like Kevin, and he and Stacey work brilliantly together.

I'm looking forward to the Lindyhopathon, since I love Lindy dances.

Also, I'm hearing some ElectoSwing music playing behind Shirley as she explains the rules, and I like that genre.

(I'm time-delayed btw)

Claudia showing that she has a quick wit when she's allowed off the leash. She'll probably get told off for it

Joe’s dance was different and fun.
Watching this on catch-up after enjoying a nice Saturday evening curry but for Bruno and Shirley can't be serious giving him 10! Right from the start hey were bouncing the balls at different times and they remained marginally but noticeably out of sync through the routine. It was fun and fair play to him but 2 x 10s makes a mockery of some of the perfect dances.

Well they do say 'up there for thinking, down there for dancing'

Obviously all the Judges are excellent dancers...

Mish mash of a show tonight. As expected the dancathon was a waste of time - we couldn’t see enough of everyone with the camera whizzing all over the place so it was impossible for the TV viewer to see who was any good or not.

Joe’s dance was ludicrously overmarked - tens for that nonsense? Speaking of tens, Faye’s delightful waltz surely deserved top marks, and Charles did well coping with a frankly laughable song for a tango.

Sadly for Lauren and Graeme they’ve reached the limit of their talent and I expect Lauren to go tomorrow with Graeme the week after. If Stacey can continue in the vein of her extraordinary performance tonight then it’ll be a fierce competition with Joe and Charles for third spot.

Overall though, bit of a weird show after last week’s spectacular Blackpool extravaganza.

I think Faye, Stacey, Joe and Ashley for the final. Faye and Ashley won't win as too polished from the off. Joe has the edge for voters so I reckon he'll take it but I prefer Stacey's performances so far.

As a bit of a PS I’m sure I’m not the only one getting thoroughly fed up with being continually told how a celebrity has never danced before - who f***ing cares, you’re getting one on one tuition from a genuine world class dancer for a minimum of ten hours a day six days a week which is probably the equivalent of a year’s dance lessons in a week so you should have at least picked something up - and how hard they’re working, well no s*** Sherlock, you’re getting paid a bucketload for a couple of weeks’ work and prime time exposure to millions, yeah I’d work quite hard too.

Just stop with ramming it down our throats every week on the main show and ITT. We get it alright?
