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

Gosh, you've all been chatty this week! Sad Ainsley went, he was good fun.

Helen and Aljaž need to sort out that gapping in ballroom - it spoiled their quickstep for me. I think it's actually his fault - he moves a lot through his back, and has his pelvis tilted. He looks great, but there's no space for her to stay with him!

I was very very impressed with Anita tonight (although the outfit was a bit much!) and thought Kellie looked fantastic in that dress.

Why on earth was Claudia dressed as Miss Moneypenny ca. 1966?

I do like it when the dancy folk weigh in on these threads though it's a bit early for me to be thinking about Aljaz's pelvis.

What do you reckon to the others' choreography, or for that matter, their pelvises Judges rarely say anything though I remember a couple of years back Len (?) was scathing about Aliona.

Alionas used to show her off a lot but it's better now. Gleb looks like he could be quite good & I always like Paschas

I liked Claudias look last night!

I really liked Glebs choreography, and I think everyone is showing Anton up.

I sometimes think Pasha must be arching his back too much as he sometimes looks as though he has a bit of a pot belly but when you see him standing still that's clearly not the case.

I enjoyed the profi Group Dance too. But I have difficulty recognising the dancers - except for KEVIN who made me feel dizzy with his hyper movements.

Agree with the Anton comments .

The female Celebs must be taught to aid their partner by jumping up as he lefts and not expecting to be lifted as a dead weight with no effort on their part like a rag doll.

lifts not lefts .

Anton should go. No other professional would get away with what he does. Keep him for ballroom pro dances, or maybe a bit of technical expertise, but not as a partner

Think you're right about Anton. I think he should go. He was obviously letting Katie down in that Salsa. The judges just ignored that and blamed her.

On the subject of James Jordan - he's really getting on my nerves the way he keeps plugging Ola's calendar. And it is over the top smutty. I feel like he's going into self destruct and bringing her down with him. They are two professional dancers - spoiling it being so tacky.

Where is James doing that? I don't normally watch ITT. He is my all time most disliked professional.

James is doing that on Twitter in between giving his opinion on the dances and the judging. Why doesn't he make a calendar of his own if he's really into making money this way - it's like he's just making off Ola.

There's definitely a whiff of of pimping in the way James shills Ola's calendar. It's not more smutty than the other female pros' calendars AFAIK, but something about the "here's a picture of my wife's arse - give us some money and you can see even more!" is uniquely repellent.

That sounds grim. And desperate.

Yes Anyone. I guess it says something about the man James really is. Something sleazy and unethical about him. The BBC were probably right to sack him. I originally wanted to believe he was badly treated by the BBC - but probably not.

The thing with Claud is that apart from the fact she is properly sympathetic to all the participants and criticises unfairnesses (she obviously dislikes PA and smoochieness) she is intelligent.

The glamourising of Claude (and the silliness) is ironic,; she treats Strictly, as far as possible, as the fun competition that it is.

James Jordan is just a repulsive man there website is quite funny though lots of up their own arses going on.

Oh dearie me THEIR

I won't bother going on it then

Anita must have seriously strong thigh muscles to have managed to do that sitting/stand up move at the start of their Tango, especially when you consider she was wearing heels!

I like Geb's choreography, it's a bit different and more interesting, he seems to have a more varied dance background and incorporates moves from different types of dance without overwhelming the original dance. I think he'd choreograph and very good show dance.

I'd like to see Jay and Aliona and Gleb and Anita do the Argentine Tango.

ooooh yes emotionsecho That would be FANTASTIC !!

Yes both of those would be v good.

Yes I miss Vincent and Flavia.

On the other hand I really don't want to see PA or Jeremy Vine do the Argentine Tango

Simon webbes argentine tango last year was fabulous i melted into the spot.

P a is too boxy for the Argentine tango i think not leggy enough

What's the difference between the Tango and the Argentine Tango?
