I really don't think Tameka was a shock exit. She really was not very good. I agree that Pixie Lott being in the dance off was a shock but she was up against Simon Webbe and he danced better than she did

I liked that the show was emotional and a rollercoaster. Plus the bizarre comments and scoring. Made is very entertaining.
Dianne and Katya both on Instagram explained why they were upset.
Katya says she doesn't need a doctor shes fine.. lol

Elderflower14 · 13/10/2019 22:25

@pinkteddy Tameka? I thought she wasn't very good... Wasn't surprised to see her go.

Elderflower14 · 13/10/2019 22:27

Lovely to see Chris Ramsey signing thankyou... Didn't notice on the show as was distracted by Karen's hysterics. The Makaton charity tweeted about it and CR replied... Ds2 is now supporting him and Will now!!! ♥

I really don't like Shirley and Motsi. They need to sit down.

pinkteddy · 13/10/2019 22:45

@Elderflower14 my memory is that it was only week 2 or something and there were loads far worse at the time. I may be remembering wrong ...

GrouchyKiwi · 13/10/2019 22:49

unique What did Dianne and Katya say?

GrouchyKiwi · 13/10/2019 23:13

Was it just that they're all sick and thus overly emotional?

Mrsjayy · 13/10/2019 23:38

Katya doesn't look ok maybe she has this cold and doped up on sudafed but she doesn't look or acting herself she is much more uppy downy than usual !

InvisibleWomenMustBeRead · 13/10/2019 23:41

Disappointed that dev went as wanted him to stay for longer, but did think that Emma was better on the night.

FWIW, I really like Tess and think she does a great job on the show. I also love Motsi - think she's brill and love her boobage, she's gorgeously voluptuous!

Horsemad · 14/10/2019 00:43

I don't think Emma W danced as well in the DO.
At the end where Aljaz was twisting her round and stepping over her outstretched legs, it looked much less effective in the DO, compared to her first dance of the night.

Surprised at the result, tbh. Think Dianne feels guilty if she coreographed the (poor) routine, hence her devastation.

covetingthepreciousthings · 14/10/2019 06:53

What did Dianne and Katya say?

Diane said she's heartbroken over Dev leaving, every week he would tell her he was letting her down, but she's so proud of him.

Katya said she's so proud of Mike & his dancing, she's fine and doesn't need to see a doctor. She did sound a bit ill on her story video but still not 100% convinced that she's OK.

BackOnceAgainWithABurnerEmail · 14/10/2019 07:35

Dev was robbed. I felt the fact that they didn’t slap a smile on and didn’t pretend that they had an exit dance ready and instead just had a hug was really genuine and powerful. Dev’s dance was my favourite last night and with the inconsistent scoring I thought at least Bruno could have thrown him a bone in the DO scoring.

The standard is good for week 4 so there will be more upsets but last night I felt the wrong decision was made. Emma isn’t particularly improving and has already hit her high. Dev has so much more.

covetingthepreciousthings · 14/10/2019 07:41

Completely agree @BackOnceAgainWithABurnerEmail

TequilaPilates · 14/10/2019 07:44

Why do the judges say that they judge the DO only on that one performance?

There have been many good contestants voted out in the DO because they've had a challenging dance that week and are dancing against a couple who, usually aren't that great, but happen to have a dance that suits them on that night?

Is there a reason why they can't judge on past performance and potential?

covetingthepreciousthings · 14/10/2019 07:47

Just seen Neil's latest post on Instagram, he's also said he's shocked and would have them down as finalists.

ElspethFlashman · 14/10/2019 08:26

It's not like they are going backstage to escape to a convent before the Nazis make him sign up for their Navy as a Captain

😂😂😂😂

Whilst I live for the DRAMA, it does seem rather focused on the emotion of the Pros this week and that's not the way it should be at all.

ppeatfruit · 14/10/2019 08:57

Well blimey oh Riley!!! That was a turn up. What a carry on. I was gutted I like Dev too.

IMO it was the cha cha cha up against a quick step ? (I might be wrong about the name of the Viscomtess's dance). She danced with much more attack than before , even though there is a definite frailty about her , I reckon SHE wanted to go, probably had had enough, she looked gutted to get through actually. There are too many medium ability dancers plus the hysterical marking.

Talk about hysteria, they were all crying, I've never seen Claud & Tess crying!! ITT will be interesting tonight Grin

ppeatfruit · 14/10/2019 09:01

Oh and to be fair Katya and Kev. danced beautifully in the live singing, it was good. The opening pro dance was the pits.

Zoidbergonthehalfshell · 14/10/2019 09:55

Thanks, @Schaden - I need to get out of this loop of watching his Rumba on repeat and pausing it at certain salient points. To admire technical details, natch.
Maybe just once more though...

Samcro · 14/10/2019 09:57

i was shocked. the judges did their"surprised your in the DO" to Dev so I assumed he was safe.
i preferred the other dance, but all seemed very odd.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 14/10/2019 10:10

Budge up!

covetingthepreciousthings · 14/10/2019 11:05

Sorry this might be old news, but I've just stumbled across the news of AJ having a secret fling with Daisy Lowe! Very surprised at that (if true). I bet there's been quite a few secret flings through the years though.

SureTry · 14/10/2019 11:21

I've not been liking the opening dances lately. That stop start Disney nonsense last week was rubbish. The opening dance last night was a mess. In the beginning section, I could only make out Karen out of the trio of ladies and that was only because of her distinctive hairstyle.

Also think the song choice blew it for Dev and unfortunately his routine got lost in all the craziness of the judges. He didn't deserve to go.

Cherrypi · 14/10/2019 11:33

Dev couldn't compete with the chemistry of Dianne and Joe last year.
