    Did anyone else think that it looked like Motsi had swallowed a wasp when the results were given?

    You weren't the only one @floralies.

    I did see her expression on camera and found it a bit difficult to read, but she could have been reacting to anything going in on in the studio. Thank goodness l'm not on TV with some of the expressions l pull 😁.

    I'm pleased that Rose won,though there was really nothing between them. I wasn't keen on Johannes "Campness" its just too much, John seemed like a really nice bloke,I think if his partner had been a different male professional,he would have won. I found myself looking more at Johannes as he was so ott.

    I missed Motsi s  facial expression,but saw it decribed as" fuming " in the msm news.😡

    And it wasn't simply a case of an instant in time.  The camera stayed on the judges applauding the winner and, although she was also standing and applauding, the expression on her face over several seconds showed her true feelings.  Also on the subject on Motsi, what the hell was she wearing?  She had very odd outfits through out the series she's been on.  So much so they make the gear Tess wore in previous series look normal to conservative!

    That could have been the documentary series about the Pineapple Dance Studios @KT53

    That's the one that introduced Louie Spence. Now he could certainly slither.

    You may think that, I couldn't possibly comment. :D:smiley:

    There was an earlier interview with Motsi on R2 when she described her outfit for the final as based on traditional African dress. It wasn’t quite what I was expecting but I love her flamboyance… she’s a big enough character to carry it off. 

    I guess she would’ve loved it if Johannes had won … I think that’s understandable … i presume she’s know him a long time, but I think her scoring has always been pretty evenhanded, unlike some of the marks  Shirley has given.

  • I just thought Motsi was getting emotional and holding back the tears. But seeing the 'still' photo of her, it does look different.
    My OH mentioned last night she looked disappointed that Rose had won though.

    A still photo can give a very false impression of the entire sequence.  You really need to see a video clip to see the expression accurately.
