Enjoyable show tonight with some very good dances. Bushell is so far behind the others now it’s untrue, hopefully this is now his last week. Thought Karin was going to cry, those ridiculous sleeves on Amy’s dress spoilt the dance by tangling the two up all the way through. Had to laugh at Emma’s dance though with Shirley giving praise afterwards through very gritted teeth.

Yes I thought the same about the sleeves they really got in the way.

I didn't realise Kelvin was a racing driver. Does he drive a car with heavy unassisted steering? He's certainly built for it.

[PositronicRay]

I fell asleep, so didn't see it all, missed Anton and Emma, expect they were OK.

My prediction. Mike & Chris in the dance off. Mike to go through (he's had plenty of practise and seems to step up to the plate)

[CooperD]

I thought the judges criticism and the marking didn't seem to be on the same wavelength. I think Mike will be back in the Dance Off but can't think who else will be as they were all pretty decent. Whoever Mike is up against will probably go through as the remaining dancers are all of a creditable standard.

Oh, I think that they down-marked Karim to test his public support and he will hammer Mike in the dance-off.

You mean they fix the scoring to follow some pre-planned narrative?

Well I might just have to watch it for the few minutes she's on it then.

Hands off buster !!

Could well be a PH member...

BTW that McLaren wow didn’t it look good - especially with Oti as the passenger.

[cuprabob]

For all you Oti fans, she is on Catchphrase at 8pm tonight.

Don’t know why McLaren were involved

[Antony Moxey]

Was it the Top Gear track they filmed that segment at? Perhaps it coincided with a TG filming session which might explain the McLarens.

Looked like it, Dunsfold.

So, who is going to be in the dance off ?

1......Mike

2......???

[BossHogg]

I like him, he makes me laugh, but then again, I'm a northerner.

[LaurasOtherHalf]

I'm constantly amazed anyone can think Chris Ramsey is funny but there you go, some people seem to think he can dance too-funny old world!

[Robertj21a]

Michelle in dance off. Personally not too surprised.

[stevensdrs]

If Mike gets through against Michelle I will call FIX.

[Clockwork Cupcake]

Well, that's Mike stuffed then.

I thought the dance-off was going to between Chris and Mike, with me not really minding who goes out.

I'll be amazed if the judges don't have a unanimous vote for Michelle. Mind you, I don't exactly have a great track record on my predictions.
