Yes Barbara quite a few of them have dancing experience of some kind or another. The little internet guy Joe Sugg is just an ordinary guy 'tho, no dancing background at all and I think he's very good.

I thought the show was great last night. Lots of wow moments. I'm not a fan of Seann and did'nt know him before the show but I loved his dance last night, Katya is a very good choreographer. For someone who has never danced before, Kate is coming on very well, Aljaz and her seem to get on well. I think Lauren still looks uncomfortable and not very happy to be there and Katie and Gorka did a very simple dance, hopefully she will continue to get rid of her nerves. What was Bruno on last night 'tho? Even for him he was way over the top.

I think he's embarrassing to watch now Ladygardener, there were some great dances last night.

Good show last night, except for Bruno overdoing things. Pasha, Kevin and Oti are my favourite professionals, but with Ashey being a true ringer, I'm plumping for Stacey and Graeme. Right person went again last night.....2 in a row - they're on a roll

I agree Ladygardener, Bruno was embarrassing beyond embarrassing. Not sure about Katie's shoes last night - with that pretty dress.... Funny thing happened - there was a post about Darcey's earrings on FB and where they had come from and I opened one of the Sunday magazines and what a coincidence - Trinny was recommending them for someone who had a black tie event on The Orient Express to go to. They were a bargain - £12.99 from Zara!

I loved Darcey's earrings and couldn't understand people's antipathy towards them on Facebook however, I do loke flamboyant earrings What do you make of all this fuss about Seann and Katya /

I think it's very sad as they were/are both in relationships but we don't know the true story I guess - only the one Seann and Katya wanted to present or the Sun decided to present. I love how folk don't read a whole post on FB and just carry on regardless!

I think some of the posts on DS about Seann and Katya are shocking. So many people act as if they know the ins and outs of both their relationships and must fancy themselves as therapists.
I'm looking forward to the show tonight and hope things are'nt awkward.

I thought the show last night was a bit flat although that might just have been me, or it might have been because I really enjoyed the dancing and costumes the week before.

I thought the Charleston was utter rubbish, no bounce at all, Katy is the wrong shape for her dance, not her fault at all, the rest was OK I thought.

I thought there were some funny song choices and wardrobe choices Ladygardener, but I also felt that everyone was probably dealing with 'the elephant on the dance floor'. Anyway, it all passed without incident and only Tess made a reference to the week that was! The other odd thing is that for the first time that I remember everyone is leaving in probably the right order. Darcey's earrings raised comments again on FB - the funniest comment was that they looked like Oreos!

Charles doesn't seem to have much of a fan club...or maybe it's Karen....
I think he is a little bit arrogant and have no feelings about Karen.

Post by Ladygardener on Oct 15, 2018 5:59:24 GMT
A lot of people on DS have the daggers out for both Charles and Karen Jasmine. I agree, it's really good to see folk leaving in the right order. I thought Kate's dress in particular was awful and did nothing to flatter her.

Post by Auricula on Oct 15, 2018 8:32:54 GMT
Kate S' dress was awful,it really detracted from her dancing. Karen seems very subdued this year, I think people think Charles is a bit arrogant and don't like him referring to himself as "Charles Venn" They seem to be leaving in order and I'd like Stacey to win

Not keen on 'all about me' Alphonso

Post by Jasmine on Oct 21, 2018 8:48:03 GMT
Well, most folk on FB seemed to like Alphonso but as a replacement for OTT Bruno. I thought it was a bit like having Alesha back - no technical dance critique - and Alesha didn't talk about her past scores all the time!
Looking forward to tonight....

He was quite a nice change from Bruno Jasmine, but I don't think I'd want him every week, as we were saying, we'd just wish he'd mention that he was on Dancing with the Stars more often

Post by Jasmine on Oct 21, 2018 15:59:23 GMT
Shirley probably quite liked the lack of arm flinging and flapping in her face Jilly! Was he on DWTS - I never realised - or that he often got 10s!

Post by Ladygardener on Oct 22, 2018 6:50:24 GMT
Yes Jasmine, he won DWTS in America I think. I thought he was grand for 1 night but his lack of critique about the technicalities of the dances would put me off him. I wish it had been Darren Bennet who stood in. Does anyone remember when he and Lilia were on strictly? He and Lilia choreograph and he is creative producer of Dancing with the stars Ireland. He stood in for one of the judges last year and he was great. I've not watched the results show but I know which couples were in the bottom 2. I quite enjoyed the show on Saturday night, I thought AJ and Lauren might have been in trouble, likewise Kate and Aljaz. I love contemporary dance but did'nt enjoy their routine. Stacey is doing great, especially since she has'nt danced before, same with Joe and Graham. I enjoyed Danny John Jules dance but did'nt think it deserved 10.

Cute picture on FB this morning of Joe waiting with Diane to hear if their names get called out and he has his fingers crossed!
Interesting that mostly all the comments on FB were that Seann should have gone not Vick - I thought Seann came over a touch arrogant last night. I guess it doesn't matter - neither of them were going to win but she came over as a lovely girl and her waltz was beautiful!

Post by Auricula on Oct 22, 2018 10:23:36 GMT
Graziano has little experience in either choreography or teaching, it wasn't Vick's fault. Why are we obsessed with American guests? I thought he was mediocre. I keep forgetting Kate Silverton

I'm not feeling the love this season at all, I don't know if it's me or them.

Saturday night was a mix of 2 halves was'nt it. I was worried that Dr Ranj, Lauren and Kate were in trouble,I did'nt enjoy Charles or Graham's dance either. I was'nt worried about Seann although I thought he was likely to be in the bottom 2 and if so that he would be leaving. A good result we thought.
On the other hand, we thought Stacey, Ashley Jo and Faye did really well and we thought Danny was likely to be safe. Ashley and Pasha were my favourites.

Faye's theatre jazz was quite amazing!
Seemed like very large elephant in the ballroom at the end of the results show!

I thought we might be seeing the end of Dr Ranj Ladygardener. He has obviously got a lot of supporters which doesn't surprise me as he seems really lovely!

Post by Auricula on Oct 31, 2018 11:08:43 GMT
Ranj, Kate, Lauren and Graeme are all of a level and one will go on Saturday methinks. Stacey and Kev to win for me ( but the "ringers" will last way beyond Blackpool )
