Strictly Come Dancing New Thread

[ChipButty]

Tired of sifting my way through the old thread. Let's chat here about this week's happenings...

Naaah Chippy tell 'em to bring an extra bottle & all watch together- you never know they may be cursing you for having to set the video!!

I can see a new trend starting this w/e the SCD supper party!

aaaaaaaaah it's true then??

sorry girls!!

Oh bugger! I knew he wasn't gay though!
I just find Katherine Jenkins so SMUG all the time and now she has a real reason to be . Lucky lady, esp now Camilla has done her work and showed the boy how to dance. Could there be a moe perfect couple [vom emoticon]?

Ahem moRe.

I don't think KJ is smug. I think she is very pretty and gracious. Earns points from me for going to entertain our troops.

Oh it is just the way she smiles when she sings I suppose....Perhaps a little fuels my comments.

Exactly NAB!!

God they'd have lovely children wouldn't they???

Ahhhhh- I do love a good romance sigh

They really would have gorgeous children! Mind you, having said that i wouldn't have said my husband and I were very good looking and are kids are gorgeous!!

Can I join the support thread too please?

We could suggest more contestants for next year, fantasy SCD, SCD in Heaven (ie dead celebs) etc, etc.

Next year how about Charlotte Church and Gavin Henson?

I would loved to have seen Paula Yeats on it too.

Have I mentioned on this thread about my second longterm boyfriend looking like Gethin, yet? Well, now I have. Needs to be done, at least a thread..

.........and you let him get away????

I am v.excited but also worried- its got to be a gethin/aleesha final ..I'm sorry but there is something deeply irritating about matt.

I'm starting to feel like that poppy yet I really liked him at the start!!

I think if Gethin gets to the final it would be great but Alesha is the consistantly better dancer -however as we've seen before the public vote can muck thath up!! Alesha may fall foul of the Blue Peter/Welsh viewers mass voting!!

She certainly fell foul in the voting last week, ending up in the dance off. That must be a bit worrying for her?

oh I dunno- sometimes I reckon they put a good pair in vs a crap (or less good) pair to give the judges an easy vote. A dose of "vote-off" nerves alwasy seems to kick-start the determination to try harder.Let's face it they're ALL knackered now aren't they!!

Oh no!
For the first time in weeks I really don't know which way the judges are going to vote - no matter who is in the dance off!
They do their highest scoring dance don't they? So if Matt is in the dance off and does as well as he did tonight then, by rights, he should go through ... but I really don't want him to!

I have never been so tempted to look at the spoiler.

BTW I thought Flavia's ballroom dress was absoluetly gorgeous, I want one - perhaps not quite so plunging in the neckline and a couple of sizes bigger of course

Confusion Tigerschick!!!

Gethin didn't sparkle for me tonight although he was VERY very good!

Matt just pulled it out of the bag didn't he?? So glad really as even if he goes out he's done so on a high like Leticia did rather than on a bad week.

Alesha & Matt were just lovely as always
sigh

ooooooooooh how exciting is this getting!!!???

Gosh, yes I am all confused now. I was willing Matt to do well, but not that well and now?????
Gethin and Camilla were still great and Matt and Alesha were just stunning! Fabulous fabulous fabulous!
Well I have no idea now. The only thing that seems certain is that Rhydian will win X Factor .
Tigerschick: DON'T DO IT!!!!

Not watching X-factor can't do all that emotion!!

Ah, . I meant Leon of course......

I did the spoiler. I'm saying nothing.

BossyB, I did indeed let him get away, because he really wasn't as sweet and genuinely lovely as Mr Jones.

Who I wouldn't let get away. So he'd better make sure he never gets trapped in the spare room I have prepared for him... [twitching madwoman]

What you AND arlene?? < snigger>

Bet she has a bloody great mantrap outside her dressing room!!!

Did Matt really deserve all those 10s? I think not. Think he was getting the sympathy vote for mucking up last week. Still think Gethin has come the furthest and deserves to win.

yesthis cheesed me off a bit to. Do I remember him getting 4 X 10, or am I delusional? They wished to keep him in with a fighting chance otherwise the series would have fallen flat and last night would have efectively been the "final" between A. and G.
Was this also a bit of Beeb looking after one of their own?? I have a horrid feeling he is going to get through, at the cost of Aleesha, and any sense of sanity in the world....>.

Definitely over-marked. None of those Argentine Tangos were of the standard of Mark and Karen's last year (and I should know, I watched it obsessively until we had to wipe the hard drive!). Matt particularly looked like he was walking around whilst Flavia performed acrobatics on him.
