    I first saw Claudia as a gymnast. . . superb on floor exercises.  She is only 19 and an older partner may have brought out her personality more.

    Neither should have been in the dance off although of the two the correct one went from watching only the dance. The look on Ed's face in the interview after said it all for me get him off.

    Louise does it for me and that Latin was breathtaking for a rank amateur Kevin is very good for showing off his partner and it worked, Giovani and AJ are too full of themselves, Daisy has me 50/50, not quite sure, her feet do the right moves most of the time. Claudia I like though AJ needs to start putting her first.

    I think Claudia's problem is definitely her "look at me" partner.  I feel she also needed someone shorter to suit her height and more generous about showing off his partner and fitting the choreographies and music to her stature.

    Agree also about Giovanni being too egotistical with his steps and attitude.   Nathalie is popular but Greg is really trying and improving.  Better in ballroom than the Latin tho so maybe the next Latin will see him out.

    I have never rated Ed Balls as a politician or an economist but he is at least improving, unlike Sergeant.  His quickset was watchable rather than cringe worthy but I do hope he doesn't last much longer.  There are more attractive dancers still left in.

    Hello , not really warming to Ore or Rinder 

    Ed not a good dancer but try's and has improved and does have an entertainment value , perhaps survive until Blackpool 

    Agree with previous comments some of the Dancers are more well known than the contestants 

    The most important thing is I enjoy watching the show image

    I am usually preparing the Strictly snacks at this time on a Saturday but no oven this weekend (mid new kitchen!) so 'have' to order takeaway tonight. Haven't seen what's in store dance-wise but hope there's an Argentine Tango?

    Loving the series, agree with almost all of above comments, got wine and Banoffee Pie at the ready, think I need to polish off the Banoffee Pie first to do the wine justice. image

    Have a good evening all. image

    P.S. This is probably an unanswerable question but how do I make the TV show a slimmer version of the people, they all look a bit chunky and I am pretty positive that none of them are. image

    So who's voting for red Edd?

    He clodhops around, and then gets voted through. Same as Honey G on x factor I suppose. Hang the prerequisite that pop stars can actually sing.image
