    Anita is amazing and so is Jay and it's great to see Anton with a partner who can dance but he needs to give her something to do.  Not just him being stupid with choreography either.  The salsas are very poor with no armography and in salsa there's a lot.

    I think Peter is over-rated so far and I can't stand Johnny Depp and the Pirates so he's on a loser there as far as I'm concerned.  Jamelia just doesn't get it so she can go soon please.

  • Yes I thought Anita was good too. Also Georgia, great trust when falling backwards. I know she's an actress but I still watched that bit a couple of times.

    Bruno is getting on my nerves, he's being Mr Nasty this year and I wish he would stay seated.

    Realistically, he is so far out of his comfort zone, it's unreal...cringe-worthy in fact.

  • I was surprised at Antons choreography,  but she wasn't much good at what was given her anyway. Love Anton but hope she goes soon. 

    Thought Jamelia would be far better and have more rhythm.

    Wasn't Jay brilliant!!  When the faster music kicked in his feet were just perfect!  And his knees... they can sure swivel! 

    I thought Helen was great too. Her acting added pot loads to the performance.

  • Yes, but you need to understand, Lily.....it's a very long time since he's done any 'proper' dancing with a 'proper' celeb....it's all been improvisation thus far. image 

  • Lol David, of course silly me image  but perhaps she gets up his nose too and wants out lol image

    I don't think Anton was best pleased last night. I think he was quietly kicking himself because I'm pretty sure she could have managed a lot more than he gave her to do.

    Obviously we don't see the training room and maybe she can't cha cha for nuts but I think he'll up his game next week.

    You can always tell when the celeb is weak beacause the pro "over dances". Christina and Aliona are good at that. (Not this year Aliona) They stand the celeb in the middle and fling themselves around them! (John Sergeant). Anton was doing it with Katy so maybe it's just a weak dance for her. 

    We'll see. Maybe she has peaked! Or maybe.....controversial.....Anton can't choreograph! He'll be on the phone to Erin! image

    There are lots of simple basic figures in cha-cha that she could easily have done and plenty more that aren't too complicated - especially if you have over 20 hours of private tuition with a world class pro and have rhythm and musicality as she does.  

    He gave her far more to do last week and she managed it very well.  Anton needs to up his game.
