SCD 14 - in a JOEVERMARKED ballroom, Oti we loved your Swansong

[PawneeParksDept]

Took the liberty of starting a new thread. Hope the title suits!

Lauren’s dance was really good. I bet she escapes. Ashley has very little public support it would seem.

Unless Stacey’s dance doesn’t resonate with the voting public? It was a lot of messing abhaaat

3 x Stacey.

I think Stacey is the favourite for the glitterball, she isn't going anywhere

I'm hoping for a Jashley dance off just to see the judges heads explode

t was the same with Liberace Unicorn. And Dale Winton

Faye has had more professional dance training than Ashley. She's at least as much of a ringer as Ashley. I don't get the Ashley hate.

Loved Charles. Joe was over marked as per (weakest in show). Stacey and Ashley were ok but I didn’t like them. Enjoyed Faye and Lauren.

Bloody Dave giving Ashley corrections and then giving her a 10 FFS!

Stacey already has the glitterball stashed in her cupboard.

@GrouchyKiwi thank you for the tip about Karen Hardy on ITT! I've just saved it on my telly planner in anticipation Hoping that she is honest about Joe's dancing,as it was so poor compared to the others!

My pre-teen DD loves Joe, wants him to win and got a bit over-awed by the dramatic entrance. Even she burst out laughing when he started 'dancing'.

I’m wondering why Joe was lifted in the dance? Is it because he couldn’t lift Dianne? Surely that limits him as a dancer if so

Loved Faye's - only memorable one. I did like the way Stacey was rewrapped at the end to keep the dream feeling.

Still raging over Jo.

Joe looks like he could barely lift a fork, let alone Dianne

Well I LOVED it...every single bit

Laughed with Faye, was moved by (mostly Karen) and Charles, cried with Stacey, amazed by Joe’s lifts, Ashley (the ringer) is an amazing dancer and Lauren was actually looking like a dancer.
Plus the group dance was just tremendous

Best strictly night ever

Christ I’ll be pissed if Charles leaves tonight. He owned that rhumba, he really did everything he possibly could with it. The judges clearly loved it too. How can he be behind Joe on the leaderboard?

My dream dance off on tonight’s performances is Joe v Ashley

Hmm. Leaderboard so close it’s hard to call the DO. Charles and Ashley?

Did Craig just give Charles the same mark as he gave Lauren, despite the best male cleb rumba ever comment?!

Joe looked very worried going into his first lift and not at all strong up there.

Ashley was boring (and getting a bit too handsy with Pashpot while up on Claud 9 I felt), Faye had some tricky looking steps but the dance was very marmite on the quirky front, Stacey’s dance just seemed like a heap of mushiness.

Lauren’s dance was nice and she did it well, though isn’t getting too close to the others yet.

The judges are so inconsistent it’s ridiculous.

Lovely the comment about Ashley having a cat on her head. She absolutely did!!!

Don't forget Lauren's awful contemporary when one avid Twitter user likened her bizarre leg placements whilst being lifted above AJ's head as looking liking a Isle of Man Flag.

Joe is safe from all of his millions of fans but his "dancing" jumping around is not final worthy though IMHO or winning the trophy

I voted for STACEY

I was a fan beforehand cos of her documentary series and this is so far removed from the kind of topics she investigates and meets people who live in awful circumstances

AJ reminds me of the illustrations in the Famous Five books.

Yes Joe vs Ashley DO would be great IMHO

I don't think Joe will be in the dance off, his can base is huge.
I can't get over how thin he is, if he loses any more weight Diane will be lifting him. He is really loving the guy liner. I 'm not sure quite what to say about his dance.
I felt the dances were short tonight, it might be down to all the 'messing abbart'. I really wish the celebs would be given shorter dresses, I could see Staceys feet properly.
The dance was ruined for me by the singing, not a patch on what it can be.
Anyhow 3 votes for Faye because I want to see the gorgeous Giovanni dance next week.

Yes about famous 5 and AJ

Oh and I forgot the singing. Three of those songs I know very well and it was excruciating. The notes in Maria were so clipped DH commented on the ‘club style’ and since when does anyone take a breath during That word in I Dreamed A Dream?!

Joe looks skeletal. Have we seen him do any lifts? He looks like he struggles to maintain his own weight.
