Just starting a new thread before tonight's elimination, as I'm sure we'll all have something to say about that.

and TheOneWithTheHair that should have said!

suburbandream · 19/11/2012 17:01

My predictions for the final: DVO and James, Danni and Vincent, Louis and Flavia. Danni to win, v.popular with the public (as long as she keeps those tats covered up Wink)

"Left foot...no, the other left foot" I can definitely identify with that Grin

Oodthunkit · 19/11/2012 18:51

Me too scatter Blush

Do the pros choose the music for each dance or are they given it? If it's the latter then I think it'd explain why so often they look like they want to say that they did the best with what they were given ... but don't.

RedZombie · 19/11/2012 20:58

I always thought that the pros decide on a list of possible songs they could use and then the producers choose depending in what the band can perform.
But, a couple of them have made comments which would suggest otherwise. st Flavia said she couldn't do the salsa (?) to the Dirty Dancing music and Artem phwoar said he couldn't do a paso to Killer Queen.

Snowstorm · 19/11/2012 21:11

Nicely phrased Grin

Horsemad Did you see CRH on TT2 last night? 'cos he agrees with you and me about Chris and Ola's charleston he gave it a 10 Shock. great minds eh? Grin

I wasn't sure about the appearance of the guy in the budgie smugglers "For Craig" Would they have done that with a woman I wonder? Hmm

DilysPrice · 20/11/2012 09:06

Yes I think they probably would - If Darcey had been in CRH's place I'm sure they'd have had her escorted off by Budgie Smuggler Bloke.

ppeatfruit · 20/11/2012 09:30

Maybe you're right Dilys I forget about the influence of sexist B.F. on the show (even in absentia Grin)

Horsemad · 20/11/2012 09:31

I didn't ppeat - only caught the last seconds of last night's ITT Sad but glad to hear he agrees with us! We obviously know a good Charleston when we see one!! Grin

Hello all.

I have to take back my remarks about Claudia never wearing anything fitted! I agree with others who said it looked like Tess and Claudia swapped dresses on Sunday night. Don't think it suited Tess with her bambi like legs Grin.

I don't like Wembley - terrible camera angles etc and the band didn't sound good. I'll be happy when they are back in the studio on Saturday.

I agree it was Richard's time to go and think VP should go next. Still not sure who I want to win - maybe Dani - more because I'd like Vincent to win than anything! I can't take to DVO and don't want James to win.

AndiMac · 20/11/2012 12:34

But ppeatfruit, Craig was the one who said he thought it was the best Charleston he had ever seen on Strictly! Confused Must watch ITT to catch up. As I said, I think I like it as much as the weekend shows!

ppeatfruit · 20/11/2012 12:45

Yes you're right andimac I remembered that too Zoe didn't!; he didn't give it 10 though did he? praps he was carried away by Wembley Grin

ITT is fun esp. waiting for Zo to fall A over T down the stairs with those terrifying shoes she wears . I like her though Grin Apart from the munchkin comments to Danni and Vincent Shock Darcey said it as well I don't understand; as another poster said they wouldn't call Lisa fat.

AndiMac · 20/11/2012 12:50

No, he gave it a 9. And he gave the other one a 10?

OMG, Craig Revel Horwood revealed to be human and capable of mistakes!!

Horsemad · 20/11/2012 12:50

How on earth she manages to walk in those shoes....! Sound like my mother now. Grin

ppeatfruit · 20/11/2012 12:59

andiYes he's human with the emphasis on the MAN Grin

horsemad she doesn't walk normally IMO watch her tonight she has her knees bent all the time and she sits down a LOT Grin nothing wrong in sounding like yr. mum in my mumsyish opinion Grin

Horsemad · 20/11/2012 13:07

I will watch tonight ppeat

Oodthunkit · 20/11/2012 18:50

So do we think Dani & Vincebt were undermarked?

chipstick10 · 20/11/2012 18:54

I like dani and Vincent muchly. I would very much like them to win. His choreography is always great. I so hope Dvo doesn't win.

PuffPants · 20/11/2012 18:58

Anyone see It Takes 2 tonight? Zoe congratulated Dani and Vincent on their "standing ovulation" GrinGrinGrin

Sparklingbrook · 20/11/2012 18:58

'Tulle illusion'. Grin

Oodthunkit · 20/11/2012 19:02
