Semi-Finals are approaching... SCD Thread 9!

[Gooseysgirl]

As you were...

Oh now I'm in love. Puffins. I asked DH for something puffin-related for Christmas.

If anything I thought that comment about her mum would have put her off! She looked like it gave her an emotional wallop when he said it.

I’m Team Joe now too. I loved that samba,

Skuas are HORRIBLE!

Get your own fish, you airborne thug!

The bastards! Two of them onto one puffin!

and it's little and fat, like me

I love puffins. I think the wrong couples were in the dance off but, much as I love Davood, I think the judges made the right call. I reckon it’ll be Molly out next week

CeeBeeBee - Oh, you innocent! Of course they want to keep her in.

Credit where it's due, she's a good dancer, and the last thing they want is to end up giving the [glitterbal]l to a clunker.

I think they are keeping her and Debbeh in for the what they consider good reasons, but it loses the dancers a lot of -

• a lot of public support.

I am loving the sexy fish dance!

That fishy love story is so romantic.

That blend should be on strictly (perhaps without the fertilisation bit . . . )

*blenny, not blend

Penguins!!! They are my favourites.

I like to give the benefit of the doubt.

Even so, the hatred for AB is tedious and the glee for when she’s in the DO is also horrible.

The toddler penguin is hilarious

Those bull seals fighting - that's how envisage Debbeh and AB in the final - neither prepared to give an inch!

Blue Planet is just even more beautiful to watch than usual this week. (apart from the mean elephant seals, that is)

Debbie out next please or Mollie

Oh no! Naked in the snow. Penguins have a hard life.

I'd prefer to see Mollie go, rather than Debbeh.

Having those hulking great penguin babies lumbering behind you must be what it's like having a teenage son who's still a kid but is several inches taller than you
I think Mollie must be out next. I hope so, especially after the cringemaking suggestive comments made yesterday and today by the judges and Claudia. id normally defend Claudia against every criticism but she was just embarrassing

Yep Mollie out next for me too.

DH spent 7 months in the Falklands 10 years ago, he said the penguins and seals utterly stink!

The fluffy baby penguin hulk was doing a Charleston. TEN!

Fuzzy

I can believe it Cavemum We went to see the penguins in Edinburgh zoo when the kids were small, and I can still tase the stench! They were RANK!

Yes. Mollie out please. Not that I don’t like her but her dancing is bland and not the standard it should be for a semi final. Last year they had Danny Mac, Ore and Claudia who were all very good. Oh, and Louise but I found her boring.

I love these "How we made the programme" bits.
