    GWRS  Another show much like strictly, the cooking comes second, they were cooking for nearly eleven hours we saw an hour. ITT will give us another few minutes of the mishaps or funny bits. The best cooks in the world watching that can only make their minds up watching a few minutes of finished product. I had not seen the spoiler but the second I saw the finished cakes knew who had won and it was not the blue and white mess. If you are actually interested in the content of the show, Cooking or Dancing then hard luck weep your way through it all as the odd contestant does in both shows.

    Susan did a great jive. 

    Aston deserved more than a four, Craig's scoring is ridiculous at times.

    Thought Davood was good and so was Joe.

    Agree,   AB was Very OTT...but then she always isimage .....really hope she doesn't win.

    Debbie was good too.......im keeping quiet this weekimage

    Craig is the only one judging the celebrity's technical performance and I'm afraid I agree about Aston's dance not being very good.

    Ruth and Anton were gloriously hilarious which is a clever way to deal with her lack of ability.   Jo's Charleston was good.   Susan's jive was much better than I thought she'd manage and Daewood did very well.   Johnny is coping very well with tricky Latin dances.  They're all trying hard which is the main thing.

    Not keen on Molly.   Can't warm to Alexandra or Debbie as performers but they do dance well and Debbie's tango was amazing.  Shame about the dress!

    Well well well, I was certainly strictly amazed having sat back in my chair expecting the usual Circus type show and then finding the first three couples actually came on the floor and danced?? Has something changed? have I missed something? Though I really enjoyed most of it last night and totally agreed with Craig's markings he got it right, Astons Viennese waltz never went anywhere near Vienna, it should be smooth keeping level with a little rise and fall, it was more like watching a mad Foxtrot, the music for the dance was dire I think Janette failed to put her usual good choreography into the dance.

    Susan was amazing certainly made up for last week, Ruth had me falling about laughing, the rest of the dancers were from the dance point of view correctly marked though as I suspected from the start when it came to lifts Gemma would have some problems, it very nearly did work but not quite. Alex was good Molly was OK Debby was fantastic a fully deserved 40, what a smack in the eye for the ageists who think anyone over 20 decrepid.  For once I had a really enjoyable night as to who will leave we may have a surprise or shock depending on your point of view.
