I think Ruth and Johnnie for the dance off, don't mind who goes, I like Alexandra but I've seen much better AT than that, Kristina and Simon, Mark and Karen for example, there is another couple but her name escapes me.

I think AJ is going to quick for Mollie, he was the same last year with Claudia.

I think Gemma will get better, I've always liked her and want her to get to the final.

augustusglupe · 11/11/2017 20:38

I voted for Gemma, Johnnie and Debbie...I know Johnnie wasn’t great, but I want to see him in Blackpool.
I want Ruth to go, because she can’t dance and had a face on her like a smacked backside all night, what was that about!? Not endearing atall

Cheeseandcucumber · 11/11/2017 20:43

I just don't get the Jonnie love, he seems so dull.

ReallyExhaustedLlama · 11/11/2017 20:44

Tonight I enjoyed Davood and Joe's dances, thought Susan did ok but was overmarked.

Ruth and Mollie clearly really care so I'd like them to stay in. Mollie was a bit undermarked and I thought Ruth's tough comments were related to Aston going out and comments in press/twitter etc that Ruth was due to go not him so perhaps trying to seem tough.

Agree with PP that Johnnie has given up trying and it was dull.

Felt for Gemma as she's another trier and had to contend with dizziness, shoe issues and had an injury last week.

Alexandra was very good for a non-pro even with her background.

Agree with PP that the judges reached for the 9's and 10's and effusive praise a bit early in the series this year.

Still enjoying my Saturday evenings watching it and all the dance tips on ITT!

Minimammoth · 11/11/2017 20:46

I think molly will go. I don’t think she really wants to be there.

TeaAndToast85 · 11/11/2017 20:50

I voted Susan because she is having a lovely time, and Davood because loved his charleston. It's getting to that point in the series where I can hardly remember the beginning. Chizzy feels like years ago. I miss Pasha

EvilRinguBitch · 11/11/2017 20:55

Yes it’s definitely getting to the time of year when you watch the opening credits and think “Reverend Richard! I’d forgotten he was even in it!”

Figgygal · 11/11/2017 20:57

Alexandra was bloody impressive tonight

HangryHanderson · 11/11/2017 21:02

Evening all Glitterball
In no particular order...

  1. Yes Laila Rouass did paso to Layla. No it wasn't very good.
  1. Lauren Sheridan - Gorka's ex girlfriend and ex fiancee - allegedly had a domestic with him last year in Blackpool. There was no evidence of any assault near a gay club.
  2. The Strictly with nonslebs was Strictly Dance Fever with Graham Norton and one series was won by Joe and Sadie (A lovely freestyle to What you Waiting For and a gorgeous lindyhop) Both that and SYTYCD only went to 2 series iirc but the latter is still a success Stateside with Cat Deeley.
Sadie from Strictly Dance Fever:

Joe also did BGT a few years ago

  1. Hello to all the newbies Wine
  2. Marking was all over the place tonight. Music was not great except for Alex. Much as though I like them Ruth vs Jonnie in the DO for me.
Figgygal · 11/11/2017 21:06

Some of the singing was horrendous tonight

Love how much Debbie and Giovanni are loving it

Clawdy · 11/11/2017 21:08

Alexandra had calmed down a bit from the hooting and gasping. Still not keen on her, though. Something so false there.

reachforthestarseveryday · 11/11/2017 21:08

What a weird night. Debbie's dance was odd - bit jerky and not flowing for me, a few mistakes but great lifts. Where was giovanji's hand in that lift???

Joe was good. Unexpected.

Gemma was awkward and lacked emotion.

Alexandra's dance was sharp but I didn't like all the waving legs. What's the point? No emotional connection either.

AJ was great but Mollie looked lost.

Susan was good.

Time for Ruth to go.
Jonnie's dance was meh.
David was very good - lots of content.

MrsJamin · 11/11/2017 21:09

Voted for Susan, Joe and Davood. Johnnie, mollie or Ruth to go. I was really impressed with davood, he's becoming a contender, I just think he needs to show more of a personality like they thought johnnie had and he might stand a chance!

Theromanempire · 11/11/2017 21:13

Evening, just finished watching.

I thought Alexandra wasn't that good Hmm her legs looked floppy when they are supposed to be crisp.

Not sure why Gemma would be paranoid about her boobs when she has had them enhanced??

Bit dull tonight to be honest.

They have shown footage from Johnny and Oti rehearsing in the studio on at least two occasions now - is that because they are training so little during the week (which i have heard rumours that Johnny is not putting the effort in)?

HangryHanderson · 11/11/2017 21:17

For anyone else as slow as me Blush...Molly you in danger girl

I might have to watch it all over again
CaveMum · 11/11/2017 21:18

Just finished watching and catching up on all your thoughts.

Hello newbies!

Basically: thought Joe and Davood both danced really well. Mollie, Ruth and Jonnie all in danger, possibly Susan too.

Really liked Alexandra, though thought she was a bit too frenetic at times - I like my Tango ladies to dance with an air of contempt and disdain about them.

Debbie was overmarked, too many mistakes and let's be honest there was barely any salsa content in it!

ThursdayLastWeek · 11/11/2017 21:19

Thank you Hangry I remember that the Anton/laila dance wasn’t great I just wasn’t surw what dance it was!

TheweewitchRoz · 11/11/2017 21:24

I’ve not watched yet but wanted to check in & mark my place.

Redcrayons · 11/11/2017 21:27

Not sure why Gemma would be paranoid about her boobs when she has had them enhanced.
Perhaps she doesn't want her tits falling out of her dress on prime time TV? As a similarly large chested woman, I would never wear a dress if I couldn't have a bra on underneath it. Id be similarly self conscious.

KittyVonCatsington · 11/11/2017 21:30

Just caught up! Was watching it on iPlayer as the kitten was playing up at bedtime!

I just couldn’t understand the buzz and vet Debbie’s dance (and I voted for her last week!) and the faffing on the stairs in Alexandra’s AT made me twitch.
I actually liked Mollie’s paso though-she did try!

Piggywaspushed · 11/11/2017 21:32

She does have a bra on. You can often see it.

StrictlyCalmanDancing · 11/11/2017 21:39

The Gorka thing was quite weird - he claimed that he'd been attacked by a group of lads (had his front teeth knocked out as I recall) but didn't want the police involved. Obviously they investigated anyway but it was dropped after the CCTV footage showed the attack he claimed hadn't taken place. The local gossip (I live in Blackpool) was that he'd been pissed and fallen over, though I've heard the domestic claim too.

ChoccyJules · 11/11/2017 21:41

Thought Davood was overmarked and Mollie undermarked. Voted for Susan, Joe and (DD's vote: Jonnie).
Alexandra was good tonight.
Johnnie and Ruth for the DO, with Ruth to leave? Or if she hasthe public vote, poor old Mollie again vs Jonnie/Gemma.
Had a somewhat cringey conversation with DD about what Joe Varney was holding onto in that lift Shock

HangryHanderson · 11/11/2017 21:45

Gosh yes, red I remember poor Chelsea being mortified, bless her.
Her halloween tango which I adored, and which she did very well to finish, had her in tears because the purple flower on the right of her corset came off and she thought everyone saw her boobs. (they didn't but she wouldn't have known that).

Redcrayons · 11/11/2017 21:59

Thanks for the Gorka intel. I've obviously made up got mixed up with my Alijaz/Gorka gay club scenario. I do remember something about his girlfriend dumping him shortly after.

Chelsea Healey was great - I remember that dance, she was in tears afterwards.
