Strictly Come Dancing - too uncool?

I absolutely love this show and it just gets better every series. But I rarely admit to it in public and none of my friends watch it - they all watch X factor - which I love too but not as much. So would love to hear from anyone who loves it as much as me!

Awww poor Peter, I felt for him!

Loved Mark and Karen again.

The girls were a bit disappointing I agree, although I though Carol had a great hold.

So, who will go?

roisin · 28/10/2006 20:34

I missed Mark tonight. Was he very sexy?

Zog · 28/10/2006 20:34

Swoonworthy.

Molesworth · 28/10/2006 20:35

I am hoping carol goes because she is the most boring of the lot

LittleScarer · 28/10/2006 20:44

Mark gorgeous as usual.

Carol is on the tepid side!

Mark and Karen have got to win it - they are great. She is such a lovely teacher, she did a great job with Bill last year and is doing wonders with Mark. He's lovely too, bless!

And don't kick Peter out, he works so hard and takes it on the chin so well when the judges were knocking him! Don't really want any of them to go but I guess it should be georgina even though she was much better this time!

LittleScarer · 28/10/2006 21:09

Agree. Agree. Agree.

I think Mark and Karen are fab. He manages to combine elegance with complete masculinity and seems to be much less self conscious than the other men. Most of the other chaps seem to be thinking "Do I look completely effeminate doing this?" all the way round the floor.
The women are particularly weak this year.
What is Brendan on? Too much sun this summer?

LittleScarer · 28/10/2006 21:52

Lol!

I think he was saying what a few of them were thinking, some of the scoring was a bit bizarre.

Molesworth · 28/10/2006 22:02

Hurrah! Peter lives to dance another day!

Gobbledispook · 28/10/2006 22:10

Aha - a thread I like!!

Mark is just toptastic. As is Brendan Cole. I would. Either of them.

roisin · 28/10/2006 22:11

Yes, off the dance floor Mark seems to be very quiet and shy; but when he dances seems completely unselfconscious.

BethAndHerBrood · 28/10/2006 22:12

who's gone this week?

sorrell · 28/10/2006 22:12

Who got dumped?

Gobbledispook · 28/10/2006 22:13

Georgina

Zog · 28/10/2006 22:14

Thank god for that.

BethAndHerBrood · 28/10/2006 22:15

Thankyou!

DH was watching football, and i missed the results!

Zog · 28/10/2006 22:16

I had to leave the room during her jive last week

multitasker · 28/10/2006 22:17

Mark and Karen were the only couple who dazzled tonight, thought Brendan had hung himself!! None of the girls come close to Zoe Ball or Jill Halfpenny, bit disappointed overall tonight.

Molesworth · 28/10/2006 22:19

Yes - mark and karen made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end! I liked the way they chose the same music for the paso doble as that at the end of strictly ballroom ...

Some of the music choices are dire

Gobbledispook · 28/10/2006 22:19

Don't care about Brendan's gob - he's sexy!

LittleScarer · 28/10/2006 22:20

I know, the girls are really going to have to notch it up a gear when it comes to the ballroom stuff!

LittleScarer · 28/10/2006 22:21

Brendan - 'If the sky is blue, don't tell say it is pink.'

Loving it!

Gobbledispook · 28/10/2006 22:22

God, I love Brendan

Please bear in mind I've drunk a good deal of pinot, but at the moment, I love him
