SCD '21 #18: Twice the dancers, twice the number of posts from MNers?

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

Previius thread

Hopefully not — two new threads in one show would be a bit ridiculous.

Polite reminder that this is a spoiler-free thread

I loved it!

I don't think he got the bounce action, did he? Though he tried.

That looked like a very difficult routine. I think he was ahead of the music a few times, but the slower bits helped him rein it in a bit.

Liking the enthusiasm at the end!

Rhys having a girlfriend really surprised me for some reason.

I think the music was great. No idea whether he'll get the 40 he'd need to win a dance-off.

I can’t decide what it was about that dance that didn’t work for me… 🤔

For a stinky samba, I thought he nailed that

Well done Rhys!!! Amazing!

He gave that everything.

No, fair enough, @SmellyOldOwls , he just worries me. My inner matriarch wants to feed him up.

He is definitely the worst dance out of the four. A few mistakes there and some timing issues

I'm warming to Rhys at this late stage.

His hips and his feet and his legs and oh my. Not the best samba ever - Danny Mac and Oti - but I loved it.

Samba is so hard!! He did good

Loved it, he’s getting my votes tonight.

craig is so complimentary tonight

@FuzzyPuffling

I wish Rose would take it a bit more seriously sometimes. I find her comments a bit juvenile sometimes. She dances beautifully and then spoils it with a smutty comment to Giovanni.

Agree with this. It was a bit of a pointlessly unpleasant thing to say.

Yay. I'd love to see him win! (Actually in Camp AJ, but Rhys will do)

@MrsLargeEmbodied

i dont think rose is smutty

I know she's teasing Gio. That's what I love about Rose is her childlike innocent quality.

I thought it was pretty great

The energy was a bit all over the place though, his timing was off sometimes - he was almost so keen to get through it that he was ahead of music sometimes

So much said about this dance.

I didn't think Rhys was good there at all - seemed to just be all limbs and shakes! His legs always seem so splayed and not really in sync at all.

think the writing is on the wall for the final tomorrow

@riotlady

I don’t think Rhys is any thinner than Rose, I wonder if we’re just more used to seeing very slim women

And that's definitely true, I was pondering that myself - that my internalised misogyny means Rose's slenderness doesn't bother me, but Rhys's does.
