I can't imagine being gay in South Africa is easy so maybe Johannes can come onto strictly be as flamboyant as he wants and accepted .

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2019 09:02

Well my Dd thinks it was because Mike works for the beeb is why he was saved Hmm

ElspethFlashman · 28/10/2019 09:04

It was grating how Len favoured Kevin, we all got a bit sick of it back then. He was too much the golden boy.

But hey, he must be a nice bloke as Lord knows he likes the ladies. And he's quite funny sometimes. I loved Monkseals comment about Karen absolutely cracking up at Chris's weak banter being indicative of how she was able to live with Kevin for 8 years.

ElspethFlashman · 28/10/2019 09:05

(liked BY the ladies that meant to say!)

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2019 09:09

Kevin just likes marrying his dance partners you don't have to marry every one Kev !

LazyLizzy · 28/10/2019 09:14

They had to save Mike because of the earlier scoring. He didn't make any mistakes and Catherine didn't improve.

I really wanted Catherine to stay but they shot themselves in the foot by giving Mike 2 points more than Catherine.

Craig is generally always spot on so when he saved Mike I am glad Shirley agreed with him.

I'm rooting for Emma & Aliaj. I love Michelle but she makes it look easy. Emma looks like she is willing herself on.

SoupDragon · 28/10/2019 09:20

It galls me to say it, but on this dance they had to save Mike because he was better. Over all he's worse but on this dance alone he wasn't.

He was lucky.

That was my thinking too, and personally I'd love him to stay, I find him very engaging. But my fear is that his very "star quality" is what gets in the way of him being a good partner. I find him compelling to watch but that's not helpful when his partner is the one being judged. And him being so good can make them look shitter.

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2019 09:24

Tbf they were rubbish on Saturday not enough Cha Cha going on but still i liked them they were fun and I think the show will be a bit duller without them.

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2019 09:26

Aww yes Emm& Alijaz she is getting the hang of it now and really going for it.

xsquared · 28/10/2019 09:47

Why is it so bad that Johannes cries but okay when Catherine or Dianne does when they are out? It must be extremely overwhelming emotionally so I'd give him the benefit of the doubt.
I thought he was very complimentary to Catherine at the end and having followed them, he is very supportive and caring of her, whilst challenging her at the same time. I guess he was just a bit too ambitious and the ccc unfortunately didn't work for her.

lynsey91 · 28/10/2019 09:48

I'm voting for Chris just because I like him. Oh and I like Karen too.

When I heard he was going to be on Strictly I was hoping he would turn out to be really good. Sadly he hasn't but I still enjoy his dances.

I wanted Mike to go but sadly he danced better than Catherine on Saturday. She was terrible

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2019 09:55

Well exactlty xsquared the female pros that have left have cried Dianne almost hyperventalted when she left the other week.

OnlyTheTitOfTheIceberg · 28/10/2019 10:14

His comment about being accepted for who he is suggests his very flamboyant character may not have gone down well in the past, and maybe on his home turf.

Like PPs, I took this as a comment on being able to be openly gay, indeed flamboyantly so, here where he may have suffered discrimination or homophobia elsewhere.

kazzaD66 · 28/10/2019 10:20

I'm not saying that Johannes can't cry but that Dianne, for example, can. It can all be a bit OTT and frankly, there's already been far too much of it already this series. I'm not sure why a lot of them (judges and Tess and Claudia included) are so emotional this series Confused

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2019 10:23

They are really emotional this year you are right Kazza but it is fine to get a bit emosh when you don't want to leave.

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 28/10/2019 10:28

Just catching up on the results show now.

Am I the only one who thought Giovanni in eye liner and chains was utterly delicious?

ElspethFlashman · 28/10/2019 10:35

Chris is like an amiable labrador - people just like him. He doesn't make excuses and he doesn't get angsty. His relationship with Karen isn't wierd, lol.

He's getting loads of votes, it seems.

OnlyTheTitOfTheIceberg · 28/10/2019 10:37

No, you are very much not.

ppeatfruit · 28/10/2019 10:39

There that's the answer !! (why is Mike still in?) is the question and it's because his trousers fitted him in the dopey Alice in Wonderland dance!!!!

I was looking forward to NOT seeing annoying Katya's over emoting boatrace any more. Shirley could 've thought of ME !!!!!!!!!

WineOrGinOrBoth · 28/10/2019 10:41

Yes I’ve been going off Katya since the Sean debacle.

covetingthepreciousthings · 28/10/2019 10:43

No. No you are not.
Halloween Wink Having been up close to Giovanni, I can confirm he is beautiful in real life. But almost too much, I found myself having to look away from him as he was just so intense.

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 28/10/2019 10:45

Aww, poor Johannes. Hope he's back next year with a fabulous celeb.

Glad I'm not the only one to appreciate Goth!Giovanni (that's how you do it, Kev!)

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2019 10:52

No. No you are not.

Mrsjayy · 28/10/2019 10:54

I thought the results dance was a bit too raunchy for a Sunday night Blush
