SCD 2016 #7 - They're! In! Blackpool! The spiritual home of ballroom dancing, donkey rides, rock and... huge amounts of theming apparently?

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

The last thread is almost full, so I thought we'd be prepared.

Despite the title I do love the Blackpool week really Fingers crossed for a nice ballroom dance from the pros.

Love Darcy's tapestry dress btw. Wonder if anywhere makes them in a cocktail style for slightly larger ladies ?

I note Len just almost criticised Oti's choreography. That's the 2nd judge I've seen being not-positive about Oti.

I've seen Charleston I enjoyed more than that.

I love Oti! She creates beautiful dances.

"Danny looked like a professional there.

Funny that"

Indeed!

Quite liked that Charleston. The problem is the judges have so overmarked this evening, that they won't be able to differentiate between good and brilliant (and indeed mediocre...)

Definitely expected more from the dances

well , what a surprise....

Aw I loved it. I have a major girl crush on Oti though.

Or maybe it's me? I am getting too critical in my old age.

Noe of these so far have been worth the marks given to my mind.

Loving the Charleston. Can just imagine the contestants dancing in an underground Speakeasy

That's the style/type of Charleston I like and I thought that was fabulous.

First 40 of the series?

Seen much more enjoyable Charleston's get much lower marks

What's up with Danny's blotchy brown cheeks?

Mmm - strange music for Louise and not sure ...

Surely Danny went wrong there in the first side to side element?

Surprise surprise

Greg looks like Naughty Norman from the old Fireman Sam.

I know that Danny is a ringer , but I don't think he would have been as good if he was paired with any of the other dancers

2kids I'm the same - it's like they mark on what the dance should have been like

It's Oti's make up, katie.

Yes!

Ed!

Judge Rinder's shiny eyes!

Jenny what did Len say ? I missed his bit

Katie- Oti's makeup
