Morning All,
I was working last night so missed live show, just caught up with it now. Rtft and was prepared to be disappointed, but there wasn’t a dance I didn’t enjoy... too late for predictions, but I would’ve voted AJ, Rose and John. I agree that John has plateaued, but still hoping he’ll somehow break out a bit and be brilliant instead of staying as good as he was at the start.
Tilly was overmarked, and although she did well with what she was given, there was no mistaking who was the professional... not sure what Shirl was thinking. That said, she’s grown on me week on week, even if I find the frequent references to family a bit annoying (never liked Gordon, which doesn’t help). Think there’s more of it with Tilly than there is with Tom tbf... not a fan of Tom either, but don’t see smugness in the Fletchers or the Ramsays; just functional families, and if, as a pp said, the Ramsay kids have direction and aren’t just second generation showbiz kids... what’s not to like about that?
My other impressions were:
Motsi’s hair needed its own show.
Tess pointed out Rhy’s mistake the minute he came off the floor- since when was it Tess’s job to comment, has she done this before and I just haven’t noticed?
Russell Crowe seems to be modelling himself on the late Oliver Reed and may as well have said “I’m too good for this shit” he really is a smug old git~
Loved the opening number and Shirley’s outfit, ditto Claudia’s (that’s a first!)
