Oops, I'm a few weeks late! But I have been watching. I actually felt sorry that Joe went out this week as he just seemed to be looking less like a Thunderbird (that really made me laugh btw) but he had to go, justice wouldn't have been done otherwise. Because I don't watch TV (apart from Strictly) I am unfamiliar with most of the celebs so still can't remember their names at this point. One thing I can say is that I immediately took against Jo Wood, don't ask me why as a lot of you seem to like her. I can't even bear to watch her, either dancing or talking. Just to look at her makes my blood boil. I would try to analyse my feeling but, well, it doesn't really matter as long as I never have to meet her! She's only still in because people vote for Brendan but she can't be in much longer (I hope).

I'm afraid either Jo or Craig really had to go tonight. It is interesting that, in the past, people from the middle of the board ( 24 to 28 points) would often slip down into the danceoff - now it seems that the public, having realised this, are voting for them, and it is now dangerous to be in the top 3 or 4 The public assume you're safe and vote elsewhere. Once Craig goes, it'll really be interesting as there are several celebs all of a certain standard....it'll all come down to slip ups. Although I don't dislike their celebs, I don't like Anton or Vincent ( too full of themselves by half ) and if Natalie Cassidy is only ( as she said ) a size 12.....I'm Victoria Beckham

Funny you should say that about Natalies comment - I thought exactly the same ;D I wondered if she said it in jest though as she commented that Vincent is a diddie Italian Craig or Jo, they were both a bit rubbish tonight. Jade was very good, surprised she was in the dance off, but I don't vote.

No, I don't vote either. I do allow myself one vote in the final - my end of series treat ;D ;D Sometimes, I don't even vote then, if I don't mind who wins

I think she was saying her shoe size ;D ;D Glad Jo went she was awful but did better in the dance off than first time around. Craig should be next to go. Anyone watch the American dancing on Friday night? ? It is a lot better than ours, the stars are a lot better than ours at dancing.

I was flicking through the channels Carolann and saw some of it.... as you say the stars are so much better than ours...Donny Osmond for one..he was so good. And there are more lifts too in all dances. I was quite surprised at Kelly Osbourne too, I thought that she would be a bit clumsy but she was pretty good. Enough about that..Jo did deserve to go and Craig I think will be next if the public don't save him again

I think Natalie's size 12 may be in US sizing (16). However, don't forget TV makes people look bigger than they are! I think she's losing weight. I'm glad Jo went out as she was by far the worst dancer (trouble with her core apparantly). I hope Craig can stay 'til the Blackpool gig but I doubt it somehow.

I thought Natalie looked much slimmer - was it Ricky Groves that had lost three stone What station is the American Dancing on sounds more fun although I just love Brucie I really do he is my FAvourite ;D

I was glad Jo left at the weekend, she really had to go in my opinion. Does anyone else think Anton is not really giving it much on the dance floor? I think he appears only half hearted and not very interested or interesting actually compared to the enthusiasm of the other male dancers.

Think Anton hasn't been 'engaged' with the competition from the start, although he is much better at ballroom than latin. Who do you reckon is 'favourite' this year? I'm not convinced Ali will get the viewers votes towards the latter stages

Brucie should be put out of his ( and our ) misery - Anton seems to be concentrating on succeeding Brucie when the time comes ( soon I hope) - Ricky Whittle, I think will emerge as favourite as time goes on - Craig must go next...he's hopeless.Pleeeeease, someone, tell Alesha ( whom I like ) when to use "was" and when to use "were" it's nearly as distracting as Tess' "cooples"

I am realy pleased Jo went this week i was fed up of seeing Brendan dragging her around the floor. I think a female will win this year i hope its Ali she is a good dancer if Brian gives her a chance. I would like Craig to stay in till they get to Blackpool for his sake. Jade is becoming a dark horse on the dance floor she may suprise everyone.

I think he appears only half hearted and not very interested or interesting actually compared to the enthusiasm of the other male dancers. I agree - Anton is a funny bloke, but he seems to be very half hearted to me since pakigate I was sad to see Jo go - she came across as such a nice person if a little scatty BUT did anyone else think the choice of song for her last dance was a bit insensitive - even Karl commented (and we know how sensitive men are especially the Yorkshire variety ) that it seemed a bit off, considering her recent history ?? I really hope Craig goes next week - I know he wants to go to Blackpool and all that but its painful to watch, Flavia always looks amazed when they go through and I wonder if he had been in the dance off this week - would Jo still be in it

Quite right FB - I'd forgotten Joodjes ;D. I think she would have been, KL, even Jo was better than Craig ( I think he's milking the "just let me get to Blackpool" bit....surely he can afford the train fare!! ;D ;D )

Am I the only one who just loves Bruce - everything about him is good to watch I love his silly jokes and for his age he is just awesome as a presenter - never seems to forget his lines well now and again he does - he is such a genuine nice man - and he managed to get Miss World to marry him too ;D

Oh dear poor Brucie Anton is presenting other programmes I notice so his mind may be elsewhere I think Ricky Whittle may win - or maybe Ricky Groves due to personality I did notice, watch it next time, that Ricky G NEVER hugs his partner - just maybe a quick kiss on the forehead Some of them are all over each other when they get thru ;D

You naughty southern persons making fun of us Northern gals - I think Judd Jiz is the right way to pronounce it and not Jadd Jiz like what FB says And I also say cooples which is correct - not capples I think of Brucie as a Father figure really
