@winechateauxjoy

Will be voting for Bill - I really want him to stay. Second vote for Ranvir. Third for Maisie because she really is very good and does not deserve bottom two. Hopefully JJ or BVB out this week.
Same here. I wonder where Clara's votes will go?

@Sparklingbrook

Possibly *@Comefromaway*. It's not making me go and see the Jamie one that's for sure.

I am wondering if this whole show needs a bit of a shake up/format change.

They did sanitise it a lot. My favourite songs from the show are He’s My Boy, Beautiful & You Don’t Even Know It.
VanityWitch · 05/12/2020 20:29

We voted for Ranvir, Jamie and Maisie this time. Maisie because 5yo dd loves her. Ranvir because she was great and Jamie because we felt as if he needed it!

@Piggywaspushed

Oh, I DO like Sarah Lancashire though!

I like an old fashioned musical with talking and acting and then occasional burst of song (like the Sound of Music). Don't like modern ones very much.

I went to see The Commitments in London and HATED iit : so bloomin loud and mic'ed up. Love the film, though.

I walked out of The Commitments

Only musical I have EVER walked out of

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 05/12/2020 20:29

There was some proper jive in it, but too much running around. He never got chance to get into the proper technique (and a pet hate of mine on the jive walks is men doing the swivelling legs. Do a nice merengue action!).

Bill, Maisie and Ranvir for me this week.

willsantausesantatize · 05/12/2020 20:29

When Jamie first came out down the stairs I thought it might be ' school of Rock ' as the musical.
Might have been better.

Piggywaspushed · 05/12/2020 20:29

I did Maisie, Ranvir, HRVY. Am worried about Maisie being in DO again.

SequinsandStiIettos · 05/12/2020 20:29

Evening all.
Opening dance fierce but I adore PQOFD. Gio committed to the heels, Gorka struggled bless. Jojo has legs for days.
JJ's was slightly undermarked but the least gurny I have ever seen - very sedate. Loved Ranvir - will throw her a vote. She was excellent.
Maisie said on ITT this was going to be her dance and she and Gorks would embrace the goofy and nerdy allegedly. She can dance but it didn't move me.
Bill's worst dance and totally overmarked. 24 very unfair - he was not better than JJ in actual fact. The character wasn't there. He wasn't leading for me. I also thought they were doing his hair in a ponytail. Disappointing.
HRVY and Janette I want to see in the final. I enjoyed their number - Craig was not wrong in picking up the couple of details though. It was Janette's first musical week but I swear Jake Wood's at home saying he could have sworn he made the quarter finals!
Jamie got crap music for the jive - and couldn't even drag it up - Karen standing in front so you couldn't see his footwork was inspired! Grin
Not his best either and overmarked except not because of the outlier of Bill's score...but JJ being done dirty in comparison might get his vote going.
I am going to see how you lot are voting before I do! Wink

I heard that The Commitments was dreadful.

Those are my votes, too.

I'm hoping for JJ and BVB in the dance off, with JJ to go.

He bores the socks off me (though so did the Biscuit Baron this week)

ilovesooty · 05/12/2020 20:30

If JJ doesn't go this week it will be surprising. He was clearly the weakest.

Sparklingbrook · 05/12/2020 20:31

I don't really mind too much what happens except for Ranvir to be in the final.
I can see Bill or JJ getting kicked off tonight tomorrow.

willsantausesantatize · 05/12/2020 20:32

The commitments film had some good acting but so much swearing! I Loved Andrew Strong's voice.

mogloveseggs · 05/12/2020 20:32

Voted for ranvir and bvb

jambeforeclottedcream · 05/12/2020 20:33

Voted for ranvir and bvb
Me too First time voted this series. Hope I haven't cursed either of them
ThursdayLastWeek · 05/12/2020 20:34

I had to start watching late so have just watched the dances and whizzed through everything else. Lovely it was.

Voted for Bill and Maisie x2.

It’s JJs time to go IMO, I can’t warm to Ranvir (in spite of JV) or HRVY (in spite of how dazzling that routine was) and BVBs routine was pure shite.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 05/12/2020 20:35

Genuinely shit. I'm Irish as well and the Faux Oirish accents fucking killed me.

littlbrowndog · 05/12/2020 20:35

Ranvir Maisie and Harvey

emilybrontescorsett · 05/12/2020 20:35

I enjoyed Jamie and find it funny how alike wardrobe try and make him and Karen look.
Nvwls is safe as even if he gets in the bottom 2 the judges will save him.
I voted for Ranvir and Maisie.

winechateauxjoy · 05/12/2020 20:35

I love musicals and will be going to see one as soon as I possibly can. Seen lots and lots - some several times. My favourites are Les Mis and Wicked. I also saw Zorro in the West End - it had a very short run which was a shame because it was excellent. I love the sheer joy of Mamma Mia live and the music, but not the plot(!) of We Will Rock You. I absolutely love Greatest Showman - what I wouldn't give to see Hugh Jackman in that on stage.

GarethSouthgatesWaistcoat · 05/12/2020 20:36

I wonder if it might be a JJ or BvB vs Ranvir DO.

Ranvir's dance was rather naice and could be lost in the shuffle. Many people won't know Waitress, the film or musical. Not sure how big her fanbase is.

Resulting in a shock exit if it's Jamie against Ranvir - the producers may have briefed the judges to save Jamie Hmm

I voted for Maisie x3 as I really enjoy her routines.

Maireas · 05/12/2020 20:36

Aren't Ranvir and Gio a revelation? Such beautiful dancing.
