Sorry to be so late joining in but as you know, the girls hog the computer.  Jasmine, the girls were doing Strictly in M&S yesterday. Thankfully their mum was in another isle and did'nt see them.  I simply cannot stand Vanessa and am delighted she has gone.  James Jordan too, they were on ITT last night and OMG that woman.  I like Claudia and think her clothes seem to suit her style, much better than the sad looking outfits that Tess wears. Tig I totally agree with you about that dress she had on at the weekend, it was woeful. I quite like Julien but I've known him for years lol. The dragon lady I've come to like as well, both of them have such enthusiasm and that gets brownie points from me. |

I am delighted Vanessa has gone, the thought of her doing a disgusting rumba with James where she would go on about how fanciable he is ... not something I want to think about too much! I can't stand James or Vanessa.
I thought Julien was a lot better in the dance off, although I don't think he's a good dancer I like how he really tries, and he's obviously enjoying it. However if he doesn't improve and keeps getting low scores by the judges he might like it a bit less!
I really like the pairing of Brendan and Sophie. I didn't like Brendan for years, but he seems to have mellowed a little over the past few years and now I do like him. His choreography has been great lately.

I think he changed after getting married. I used to find him very annoying, and he came across as very big-headed. He is much better these days, perhaps his wife has made him feel more secure I think everyone tries their best, just some of them have zero timing and even less sense of rhythm  |

I'm liking the dragon lady a lot more than I thought I would too Ladygardener, I love the way her face just lights up when she's dancing. I suppose on Dragons Den she has to play up the image of being a miserable old bat, but she seems really smilie & pleasant on SCD. |

He is now married to Zoe Hobbs, a British model, who gave birth to their first child, a baby girl Aurelia, on Christmas Day 2012.

I didn't know that Craig and his partner Grant had split up  apparently, Craig was married in his 20s and has had partners of both genders as he "loves the person, not the gender" He is having his hip replacement brought forward from Feb to Sunday at 6am  to give him time to recover and be on the next show ( even if in a wheelchair if need be) Hmmmmmm......... |

Yes I knew he was getting his hip operation done this weekend Auricula. He's aiming not to miss any shows he said on It Takes Two. Did'nt realise he'd split up with his partner 'tho. |

Tonights show was over very quickly was'nt it. I thought Patrick was over marked, I'd never have given him 9 like Len did, more like a 7 although he seemed to move his hips a lot more in rehearsals as shown on ITT. Mark was great, really good fun to watch I'd like to see him stay for another few weeks. Fiona thinks she's a lot better than she actually is, she was shocked by her low scores. I did'nt really enjoy her dance. Much and all as I've come to like Ben, he too was way over marked, he spent most of his time stomping or standing around. I missed the first bit of Sophie and Brendans dance but I enjoyed what I saw. Quite a few ties in the scores tonight it'll be interesting to see who are in the bottom 2. Auricula I'm depending on you. |

I'm really looking forward to seeing who is in the dance off and who goes. I missed the first bit of the show...didn't realise it started as early as it did! Loved Suzanna's (sp) music...and her 3 little boys!
Think Tess' dress was a bit of an improvement too!...not Brucie's jokes though - they get worse!

I was able to ff all of Bruce tonight thankfully. I read on DS he was rude to one of the floor managers but did'nt see it myself. What did makeup do to Abby Clancy's eyes. I did'nt really notice Tess' dress so that's a point in her favour. |

OH commented on AC's eyes!
I think the show is going to get quite interesting after 2 or 3 more folk leave. There's some good dancers and some who are improving by the week!

They were like stones in the snow Jasmine. Natalie is a great dancer but I just can't warm to her at all. |

I agree about Ben's overmarking Ladygardener , I thought he actually did very little dancing, it was all about his partner I thought when he danced it was ok. I only saw the last half hour of the show because I was out tidying up the borders, so will catch up on the earlier dances shortly. |

hahaha No unfortunately I didn't, and as a result I'm not sure what condition I left the garden in! I was liberally throwing slug pellets in the dark. Eventually I had to just give up and come in!

I had to watch it on record too so I could FF thru Bruce......I quite liked Tess's dress tonight...
Fiona wasnt very good was she....and as for the dragon...well....she was terrible
Abbeys make up was very overdone wasnt it..I didnt recognise her at first.

I actually thought Bruce's jokes were a tad funnier tonight  but he was unforgivably rude to a floor manager  The spoiler has just come in - very late I thought they all danced ok tonight........... |

She tried her best, bless her  Hope Craig's op goes ok...... been there.... done that ( and am half way to needing another one if they only last 10yrs ) |
