SCD#3

[Fiderer]

Thought about mentioning Halloween Hell in the title but it's a Sunday morning and some of us may be feeling delicate enough.

Dances for next week:
Anita and Gleb are Jiving to ‘The Boy Does Nothing’ by former Strictly winner Alesha Dixon.
Carol and Pasha dance the American Smooth to ‘Man! I feel Like a Woman’ by Shania Twain.
Georgia and Giovanni dance the Samba to ‘Volare’ by The Gipsy Kings.
Helen and Aljaz will Rumba to ‘Hello” by Adele.
Jamelia and Tristan perform the Viennese Waltz to ‘Trouble’ by Ray LaMontagne.
Jay and Aliona perform the Argentine Tango to ‘Diferente’ by The Gotan Project.
Jeremy and Karen are dancing the Tango to ’Go West’ by The Pet Shop Boys.
Katie and Anton will Quickstep to ‘42nd Street’ from the musical 42nd Street.
Kellie and Kevin are going to Waltz to ‘Love Ain’t Here Anymore’ by Take That.
Peter and Janette will Charleston to ‘Do your Thing’ by Basement Jaxx.

Really hoping its a better week than last week!

WTF??!

Do you think they're trying to entice Alesha back for an AllStars series or something? First they had her on for a Friday Panel on ITT where she sang her dire new song, and now they're giving her first solo effort publicity it doesn't really warrant. They seem to be building bridges for some reason.

Before the music and dances were announced a friend was winding me up that NPP was doing the charleston to Pharrell's Happy. I was quite looking forward to seeing an orange Minion.

WTF??!

They want Jeremy out this week then!

It may backfire. A stork dancing a tango to 1980's pop? It's sure to be comedy gold! I might start voting this week... 3 votes for Jeremy if he can pull this off with aplomb!

Does anyone know how long the online voting is open after Saturday's show? I am never able to watch it live so never voted.

Maybe an hour? They seem to announce that voting is closed in between two subsequent programmes.

Thank you - maybe I should start watching it live. Have just registered for online voting just so I can vote for Anita and Gleb!

SheHasaWildHeart - if your voting for Gleb Anita anyway you might as well just vote at whatever time the live show finishes. You dont have to have seen the performances .

I know Redcrayons you're right. I think they're in danger of being in that 'middle' position that Tess mentioned, I love them and actually re-watch their dances back, rather than the other (trained) dancers who score highly but whose dancers I forget about as soon as they're over.

Love Pasha too - think he should ditch Carol and just dance by himself.

I like Gleb and Anita too and am going to be voting for them as I think they are consistently undermarked.

Pasha may well be lovely but voting for him keeps in Carol who really should have gone last week as that dance was painful to watch, it would be kinder to release him and let him do the pro dances.

The voting window is about 40 minutes I think so you have to be quick.

Obviously Pasha should ditch Carol and dance with me but I have a soft spot for her and want her to stay in until only those who can actually dance are left.

Pasha should be dancing to man, I feel like another woman to dance with, please don't vote for him as lovely as he is and he is one of my favourite dancers ever, it just keeps the clodhopper Carol in and it's getting embarrassing she is sooo bad.

Helen on ITT did not look pleased at all the Aljaz & Janeera lovey dovey stuff.

I think that's just alphabetical by sleb first name Maryz

As the show opener and closer dances always seem to be the best, I reckon the producers decide on Friday after a run through or something.

That was just the list from the strictly website. I'm pretty sure they always put good couples first and last otherwise a crap start or ending would make the show look bad to people watching the previous or subsequent programmes.

According to ITT, poor Jeremy was trying to train in his own yesterday as Karen was poorly...this might be the end for him.

Ooo jay doing an Argentine tango I love the AT he better be good,

Maryz Anita and Gleb have the jive and looking at the footage on ITT it looks quite complicated so if she pulls it off with no mistakes it should be fantastic.

I'm surprised (but quite pleased) that Jay has the Argentine Tango, I thought they might save that for him to do at Blackpool, perhaps Anita and Gleb will get the AT at Blackpool.

Why was Jeremy training on his own? Loads of men have gone out already so surely one of the female pros who are knocking around partnerless could have been asked to do a few hours with him using Karen's choreography?

Good point Black
