Right result. Saffron did it better second time and although I’ve liked Michelle all the way, she’s running out of steam and that dance was pure shite

LittleAndOften · 17/11/2019 19:59

I really hate Saffron's song choice. But she's dancing. MV is just walking about.

FuzzyPuffling · 17/11/2019 19:59

Well she was never going to conga, was she?

Inkanta · 17/11/2019 19:59

Wish someone would tell AJ to slow down his dances. Sure that has something to do with all his partners not keeping up - and not looking polished.

KurriKawari · 17/11/2019 19:59

Just popping by to say this is the dancer who looked like Artem - hoping he replaces Anton!

Waves to @LittleAndOften

Hope you are feeling a little better today and that Westlife hasn’t set you back Grin Flowers

They don't usually do a couples best bits do they?

ManonBlackbeak · 17/11/2019 20:00

Is it me or did Gio look throughly pissed off during the 'Voguing'? I think its quite clear he didnt want to do it and thought it was a crap idea.

Never mind, at least this means that Saffron has little to no chance of winning. Every cloud and all that...

Stellaris22 · 17/11/2019 20:00

Probably was the right decision but I'll miss Michelle, I thought her partnership with Gio was wonderful and they worked really well together. I'm glad she got to do a dance that really reflected her before she went, I understand a lot of people just didn't get it which was her downfall.

ThursdayLastWeek · 17/11/2019 20:01

Had any of the Annual Strictly Blackpool After Party goss been dropped yet?

awaynboilyurheid · 17/11/2019 20:01

Giovanni looks relieved haha I like when he had fights we argued she wouldn’t be easy he did well

NumbersStation · 17/11/2019 20:01

I thought GinggerNeil hurt his leg?
Did he strain his tongue too?

The bugger is practically mute.Confused

Encyclo · 17/11/2019 20:03

Her fellow celebs love her, she's very warm and inclusive and full of wise life advice I bet.

She is a bit marmite though and she misread the reality following her DO last week. She should've gone for a total crowd pleaser.

xsquared · 17/11/2019 20:06

*I thought GinggerNeil hurt his leg?

I think if he spoke some people would be accusing him of taking the limelight. It seems he's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.

xsquared · 17/11/2019 20:06

Bold fail above.

awaynboilyurheid · 17/11/2019 20:07

Saffron looks like she’s used to adulation and didn’t take it well! Daddy will not be best pleased he’s a real stage dad I think.

chocolateisavegetable · 17/11/2019 20:07

I'm new here, but does anyone else think that Michelle actually WANTED to go - like, she'd had enough and just wanted the opportunity to vogue rather than keep going in the competition?

Figgygal · 17/11/2019 20:07

Not too unpredictable that
Sorry Michelle right result

NumbersStation · 17/11/2019 20:08

@ThursdayLastWeek

I hear someone ripped her dangling strap off getting jiggy with sooty and it’s accompanying hand under the spring floor.

Tequila is a bastard.

Still, the strap is now flying off the top of a tower as a sign to all the dirty puppets out there. She’ll be busy for weeks.

Some heard tell that zippy and bungle will be in the crowd next Saturday, waiting their turn.

EleanorReally · 17/11/2019 20:10

lead dancer at the beginning had a Hair issue, like the strap from last night, annoying.

ilovesooty · 17/11/2019 20:10

Well I thought Saffron would be in the dance off.

And yes, I reckon Gio always thought that Vogue was a rubbish idea.

LittleAndOften · 17/11/2019 20:10

@NumbersStation it was touch and go for a while there! Just watched Mark Ramprakash's AT by way of therapy Grin

lynsey91 · 17/11/2019 20:11

Not surprised that Michelle was in the dance off at all. She obviously is not that popular with the viewers or she would not have been in it last week. If she had danced a really great dance last night she may have been safe but that shit thing she did meant she deserved to go.

I knew Chris would not be in the dance off. He is very popular and good for him. He was my favourite before Strictly even started and is still my favourite now even though not the best dancer.

melj1213 · 17/11/2019 20:11

I understand a lot of people just didn't get it which was her downfall.

I think that's a little insulting to the audience. I understand Voguing, and have seen it done amazingly. Unfortunately for Michelle hers was not and that was why she was in the DO and went out.

It was a risk to do something "alternative" - especially later in the competition when the standard is higher - so if you are going to do it then you need to smash it out of the ballpark and your performance needs to be crisp and flawless. Michelle's downfall was that she just wasn't that good and she ended up in a dance off with someone who, whilst being vanilla, executed their dance better and was technically good and so didn't deserve to leave.

NumbersStation · 17/11/2019 20:12

That would make most people a little perky @LittleAndOften Grin
