Previous thread

I'm not sure 9 pages will last us, so I'm getting prepared a bit early! Check the last thread first before posting here — we might still be over there.

@ShirleyPhallus

The high heels are freaking me out a bit

But what amazing energy, especially considering his age

Those are normal men's Latin shoes.

I can see why you'd be freaked out though — it's the first time we've seen them all series!

I want to love this but this track+jive isn't doing it for me.

Something about the moves? Well designed for the music and Bill did well to keep up but...

Haha Craig.

Bill reminds me of Richard O'Brien in Rocky Horror in this!

Ranvir has too - more defined waist.

That jive had lots of content and was very fast.

Oooh craig. Controversial.

Bill's worst so far but he will stay in and I will still vote for him

Love a bit of Panto Craig

I didn't like that as much as some of his others. At the start, I thought he looked a bit like a comedy/ joke act

I don't think Bill was able to sustain the jive for 90 seconds hence the faaaffin' abhaut.

What did Craig say ?

He's right: it was a bit stompy especially at the start.

Immensely annoyed by the painting thing. This dance already had a gimmick in the punk clothes - why the hell did it need another?

Think Bill robbed Clara’s jive shoes....

Didn't like the art theme at all - totally unnecessary. The Eiffel tower wobbling kept putting me off. Wasn't keen on the camera angles either - was not sure whether the tricks all went wrong but something did. But it was okay for a jive 8

Bill has lost his beer gut or certainly reduced it

Bill is only 55 ffs.

@Florabritannica

I adore Bill. Consider my moth thoroughly scrubbed.

I couldn't sustain that for 90 seconds and I'm at least 9 years younger than Bill

My word!

Bill's ;most some weight!

... was thinking earlier, all the celebs seem to have lost weight, Ranvir and Clara especially.

I love Oti so much. That just needed to be said.

Bill was brilliant!

Just caught up
Clara it wasn't good that leap threw her
Jamie it was good but not great
Nvwls I liked it but not tens. Pleased for janette though

Ranvir lovely but underwhelming

I love Bill, he's being criticised which is fine, but the overscoring of Hrvy and Clara is bloody annoying!!

I love that track
But not sung like that

I think he did a pretty good job.
Oti didn't tone down the choreography like they usually do for older celebs
