Say what you think there schaden ! Grin

ilovesooty · 08/12/2019 19:56

Karen has really enhanced her standing this series.

awaynboilyurheid · 08/12/2019 19:57

Well done Karim!, Chris was brilliant, he and Karen had a brilliant partnerships just came over so well!

Encyclo · 08/12/2019 19:57

Stayed off this thread for fear of being spoiled last night when the spoiler in chief was at large.

Not surprised tho. Chris is an absolute class act in every way. I hope this show really raises his profile.

As for Karen, she's my new favourite pro.

DingDongSchadenfreudeOnHigh · 08/12/2019 19:58

You know one of the things I miss about the "olden times" in Strictly?

We had a couple of posters on here who Really Knew Their Dance and could give us inform: foot placement, straight backs etc - and I learned so much.

Now it's just "story"and "drama" and similar bollox. I WANT DAAAAHNCE!

AlecTrevelyan006 · 08/12/2019 19:58

I love Karen - was never a fan before

GrouchyKiwi · 08/12/2019 19:58

Karen did come across so well this year. I've found her unlikable in the past but she has really grown on me. Her haircut is fantastic too.

DoesntLeftoverTurkeySoupDragOn · 08/12/2019 19:59

Mind you stage school might well not mean ballroom or Latin dancing.

It doesn't have to. Learning dance teaches you how to move and things like "spotting" when spinning and other techniques.

Piggywaspushed · 08/12/2019 19:59

Yes, I like Karen : she seems a genuinely good teacher.

RageAgainstTheSnowMachine · 08/12/2019 19:59

Chris with his Call it a night comment said what we all would want to say in his position.
Let's hope Karim can at least do the lift this time bless.
Emma in her interview makes me not want to vote for her - the fall in love with dancing bollocks is just that, given her previous experience. Maybe she had imposter syndrome but, having been in Chicago, seriously doubt it.
Kelvin has it in the bag I think - he might not have been a Debbeh but the ballet might have helped - the other two are ringers although Emma underperformed imho and I do wonder what would have happened had Will not got injured.
I will chuck a vote in the final at who does the best freestyle.

Did they give up on the idea of the Judges' Mentoring Dance/Co-dance?

DoesntLeftoverTurkeySoupDragOn · 08/12/2019 20:00

DD has been dancing for 10 years. She would do FAR better than DS who's done none.

Piggywaspushed · 08/12/2019 20:00

Haha! Loving their final dance!!

MarkingTimeIm59 · 08/12/2019 20:00

Aw Chris. Definitely bought out the best in Karen.

awaynboilyurheid · 08/12/2019 20:01

herecomes no Karims had sooooo much training according to some on here!

DingDongSchadenfreudeOnHigh · 08/12/2019 20:02

I knew in my heart that Chris would not get through to the final - but my word, I've enjoyed his time on the show.

And Karen is brilliant! I hope she gets the chance to have a decent partner next time. . . if she can do this with clunker . . .

DingDongSchadenfreudeOnHigh · 08/12/2019 20:03

I suspect that Chris is in many ways relieved to be out of it - he mis be knackered!

(Still a disappointment though)

Apolloanddaphne · 08/12/2019 20:04

I know it's not a popular opinion here but I love Karim and I love watching him dance. I would be happy if he won. However I equally love Kelvin and suspect he will be the victor next week.

WhichBin · 08/12/2019 20:04

Someone remove Tess now..."You've earned that". She's off the scale on the Patronisometer

Totally agree

Even my 8yo DD said “here she goes again” Confused

She talks to them like they’re 5 year olds. I don’t get it. It’s like a nervousness about her talking “ad lib”. She’s got worse this year I think.

TooSweetToBeSour · 08/12/2019 20:04

Happy with the final three, still 100% backing Kelvin for the win although Anton’s fan base is a bit unpredictable! I really hope the final doesn’t become all about him.

ilovesooty · 08/12/2019 20:05

Well I can't watch the show live next week. I can't say I'm too bothered. Hopefully Kelvin will win it.

Bluffinwithmymuffin · 08/12/2019 20:05

Karen’s always been brilliant whoever she gets it seems to me.... She’s had her share of underdogs if I’m remembering right (one of the hairy bikers a few years ago stands out) Do you reckon they’ll give her the best ringer next year?

SisterFarAway · 08/12/2019 20:05

I was convinced that Christ would go out unless he miraculously avoided the DO.
But he was such a joy to watch, every week he seemed genuinely surprised to go further and the way he accepted that he was in the DO and then that he was eliminated showed me that he is a decent guy.

Rooting for Kelvin and Oti to win :)

VanyaHargreeves · 08/12/2019 20:07

😂

Amazing someone alert Rev Schade that the Second Coming is upon us.

DingDongSchadenfreudeOnHigh · 08/12/2019 20:08

I was convinced that Christ would go out unless he miraculously avoided the DO.

Christ absolutely could do that!

Bugger Sad

You might have known it in your heart @DingDongSchadenfreudeOnHigh

I saw it last night. To be told they were only joking so I held some hope.

And as well as ‘story’ and ‘drama’ we get ‘the journey’ gubbins too I think.

Kelvin for me now. All the way. It would have been Chris though if I’d have had my way Grin
