  • Much better without Motsi.
    Too many Unisex costumes,I like the flouncy dresses for latin,poor Caroline looked like a lampshade though,wrong dress for her IMO.
    The whole truth is an instrument that can only be played by an expert.

    I was pleasantly surprised by Anton - constructive comments from him and no flummery.    Some excellent performances this evening too.
    Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

    I think a longer dress perhaps would have been better for Caroline . I enjoyed it much more than last week, and also Anton on the judging panel. Much more considered and less "Mr Strictly" than l was expecting. 
  • So much better without Motsi, she's a lovely lady but far too over the top. Just like Bruno, I don't miss him either. 
    Loved Anton as a judge, knew he'd be great at it. 
    Some strange costumes again. Thought Carolines was a bit frumpy, but loved her dancing, so elegant.
    Loved Clare's Charleston.
    Loved Bill Bailey too......come on Bill🤗🤗

    Anton has the knowledge of dance to become the new Len, but without the dislike of modern developments in dance.  From the little I saw he seemed to give fair and reasoned comment.  Honest about the flaws but also praising the good.

    I was pleased with Anton's judging which was careful, considered and constructive and better than I expected.   He can replace Motsi any time they like.

    Some interesting performances last night and no real duffers but Caroline is still too reserved and "acted".  She needs to throw herself into it more.   Loved Bill Bailey's performance and Oti's choreography.

    Loved the show last night, though my favourite bit was Claudia moving frantically away from Bill as he flipped to the floor. You could almost hear the director screaming down her ear piece to "keep 2 metres apart". Personally I quite like Motsi but really liked Anton. Cracking show just hope Bill can keep it up 
  • Totally agree @Wilderbeast .... loved Claudia's quick dead-pan reaction ... we replayed it a couple of times just to have a laugh.  Anton was perfect ... the way he explained things even I could understand what he meant, and yet he didn't lose the excitement and encouragement ... perfect.   And Bill for the Glitter Ball .........  <3

  • Bill is a real revelation,  expected  "dad" dancing, but not a bit of it. Enjoyed Anton's critiques, helpful not hurtful, but he needs to calm his scoring a bit.🙂
     What are they going to do, I don't think any deserve to be in the bottom two , whomever goes it will be a shame.

    I like Motsi too but find her OTT and prefer a bit of calm, constructive commenting.  Agree about the scoring.  They're going to need a 10+gold star paddle for when the contestants put in a perfect performance.
