Strictly Come Dancing 2012 Thread 3. Keep on Dancing.......

[Sparklingbrook]

Sparkly new thread.....

Kristina is gorgeous and she obviously really feels for her and her partner's fortunes.

I think she's a wonderful dancer too.

Someone on here said a while ago that Denise's smile never reached her eyes, so I watched and by Jove they were right. I really wouldn't like to be a junior member of staff on the receiving end of her wrath.

Agree about the comments to Dani - so bloody patronising. I am tall and if someone constantly passed remarks about the fact I am 5ft 10 I would be seething. And the undertone that she is basically a little girl/so cute etc. Urgh.

I do like watching Louis dance, but agree he hasn't made the leap to being expressive enough. He has a lot going for him (fit/has rhythm etc) but may not go all the way if he can't let go.

And yes to Lisa needing a better bra. My DH was talking to the screen at the elimination last night - 'Pull your shoulders back. Posture.' when he was looking at her. (He is a military man if that is any excuse.....)

[ScatterChasse]

Louis doesn't present at all really, does he? I think I might quite like him if he did, he just seems a bit boring (and with a stupid haircut).

The only dance of his I can really remember is his Viennese waltz, and that's because Flavia threw everything in in terms of the music and staging.

I agree that Kristina is a beautiful dancer. I don't understand then why she did the histrionics - because it made her come across attention seeking, which was unnecessary and spoilt her. There was no need as her dancing and teaching speak for themselves.

[LetUsPrey]

Louis needs a Gethin-style breakthrough.

Rather liked the way that wardrobe had designed the back of his shirt so that the patterned V of fabric drew your eyes to his bum. Please tell me I wasn't the only one to notice/think this

I too can dance like Flavia in my head. Real life - not do much.

[WrathdePan]

Really can't understand all of this flak given to Kristina for being a tart. Don't see it meself. I do see a really hard-working, professional dancer with lots of emotion and a gorgeous bod.

Victoria - I try to make her my favourite, but she is getting on my tits with all the fey, 'I'm so vulnerable' stuff. Forget you're an Olympian, and get on with Brendan's excellent tutelage. If I was him she'd be over due a bit of a shouting at. [firm task-master emocion]

[Mrsjay]

I like kristina too I watched her on BBC2 tonight and I thought she was lovely and she seemed really to be upset and gutted she realley bonded with colin,

[Animation]

Folk are saying Kristina is a tart? Tart? Are they??

She's a bit affected this series that's all - and getting on viewers nerves/tits with it.

[VillaEphrussi]

Thank you so much AmI And he's coming to a town near me

[WrathdePan]

I think 'blousey' has been used as a euphemism...

[awaynboilyurheid]

LOTTO Ha! knew I wasnt the only one! stayed in a hotel where Flavia and Vincent were staying and couldnt eat my breakfast for watching her in the dining room. OH thinks I'm nuts

[VillaEphrussi]

Hi ppeat I wondered what a tablecloth hairstyle was..! I think they did it from before the very start of the series because on the opening show where they meet their partners I noticed that they had ruined Pasha's hair. I hoped it was for a themed dance and that it would grow out, but no, they keep cutting it back again! It's such a horrible look, makes me think of fascists, not at all how I imagine Pasha to be (in my imaginary world where he's my lovely dance partner and I've miraculously transformed from sahm to sleb...).

I like Kristina btw. I warmed to her after reading about her childhood. soft

[Phoebe47]

Agree with what LittleAbruzzenBear said about Colin. I think he would have done better with a taller partner - just looked akward dancing with someone so very much shorter than him. Can't stand Denise and Victoria is just plain irritating. Also can't warm to Richard. I think Lisa dances really well and clearly enjoys herself. I would like to see her do well. Sorry to see Colin go.

[Isthisme]

I like Kristina, won't forget John Sergent dragging her round the dance floor.

[2rebecca]

Am amazed at the strong emotions some folk have for these dancers. People I don't know never affect me like that. I can admire Louis's physique and get irritated by some of them but never "love" any of them, or really hate them either. They're just an evening's entertainment.

[ppeatfruit]

2becca IMO People use the word without any deep meaning attached to it .

Kristina is lovely, just very emotional. Herself and Colin got on very well.
I really can't take to DVO and i really don't know why. I thought i was the only
one who wasn't to keen on her, until i read mumsnet.
Really not liking Louis, i hope he warms up a bit as i think Flavia is great.
Fern annoys me, the is only sixty fgs not eighty. Pamela Stepehenson did a fantastic job and she was an older woman. Fern is lazy.
Think Pasha was great with Chelsee , not so great with Kimberley.
However, i want Kimberley's body.

[ppeatfruit]

I thought that Natalie seemed nice on TT yesterday. Julien was a bit more controlled; but it must be me 'cos Karen Hardy speaks without thinking so gets a lot of her words mixed up Zoe was wearing a skirt

That reminds me what WAS Tess wearing on Sunday ? It looked like a bib to cover up her nipples She's bit too tall for that 60s babydoll look IMO.

[Skillbo]

Here's my tuppenceworth...

I really like Louis, Kimberley and Lisa although I thought Lisa's face when she was waiting to find out if she was in the dance off was a picture - just totally devoid of any kind of awareness, but like DvO's eyes . I think Louis is just shy - as I have said on previous threads - he is only young and not used to the sort of attention that something like Strictly brings. He does need to let loose though and then I think there would be no-one to touch him - DvO is so universally disliked that I can see almost anyone else winning over her!

I really dislike Michael (please, please, please get voted off - if he has Latin this week, which I presume he does, it may happen!!), DvO for obvious reasons and I would also like to see Nicky do th eoff although I think Westlife fans will keep him in for a few more weeks - and he is sort of pretty (not in Artem's league though!!!)

Wouldn't be fussed if they left - it's all the rest really. I am sad that Victoria seems so vulnerable as I pictured her with a core of steel which she certainly doesn't have although I think Brendan pushing her more might get more out of her... I don't know... I am trying to remember who else is in, oh yes - Richard, Fern and Dani! They're ok but don't mind if they go..

My favourite pro is Pascha though although I think Flavia has choreographical (is that a word?) skills like none of the others - I just keep thinking back to the free dance she did with Matt D'Angelo and am just in awe - love her!

[ppeatfruit]

I reckon Lisa was REALLY upset to be nearly in the dance off her mouth was hanging open oddly maybe she thought she wasn't on camera (I hate all that ridiculous' waiting forever to hear the results' lark).
