Been reading for ages and can finally post - always forget this is here and then get sucked in! Always a great read!
Ok - my thoughts:
Am devestated that Jimi had left the competition - he was far and away my favourite and thought that his flashes of brilliance (his first dance was just full of joy) showed he could become a great dancer! He loved dancing and makes me sad to see him go!
I despise Ann - I hate her political views and really dislike the fact she has spun public opinion to see her a some sort of comedy figure when in reality she is simply a vile woman! FFS, invest in a decent bra - she is everything i hate about reality tv - wanna say fuck off and die, but that might be a bit strong 
With Jimi gone, I have to switch my allegiance to Scott - I don't really like Natalie, bit mannish (think it's the forehead) but Scott is so graceful! His viennese waltz was amazing!
Also loving a bit of Pamela but then I also love a bit of James... he makes me laugh!
Other than that, surprised how much I like Kara but some of her costumes have been a bit ho-like.. mind you, a lot of the costumes have been pretty invisible - Flav's creation this weekend was plain strange - what was with the scarf?
Brucie needs to retire, and soon! Did anyone else read Tom Chambers comments in the Sun, can't find the rubbish link now.. in a nutshell he said it was all so fake and he hated it. You had to smile at all times in Tess' area or it could effect voting, he didn't like Austin at all (some crap quote about taking him out but might have been a joke) and how he hated the tour (I wiki'd the results - yup, that lame - and it turned out he got his arse handed to him by Rachel & Vincent who won something ridiculous like 60 times whereas Tom and Camilla won twice!) I really disliked his smugness so am not surprised by his comments but strikes me as a bit disloyal somehow!
Anyways best head but am loving it, like every year! Just wish there was a Matt and an Ian [smile}
