Previius thread

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

Polite reminder that this is a spoiler-free thread

My 3 went to Rhys.

SmellyOldOwls · 11/12/2021 20:50

AJ hasn't been that high on my radar so far but her quickstep was lovely and I think she deserves to be in the final for sure over the boys.

SequinsandStiIettos · 11/12/2021 20:50

If you don't want J&J in the final you should give all your votes to Rhys
I gave Rhys all my votes last week and AJ was bottom two so am not taking any chances. AJ should beat whoever she'd end up with but with a tie at the top as well, I'd prefer her to go straight through tbh.

DontWantTheRivalry · 11/12/2021 20:54

Just finished watching so haven’t yet read anyone else’s comments.

I was so disappointed with J&J this in both their dances. I was tearful during the VT of the CC dance, but the dance itself was a complete flop. I was bored. And when it came to the Jive, even though it wasn’t energetic, John looked like he was really struggling by the end of it. So yes, they didn’t impress me tonight. I think they were overmarked for both dances.

I don’t really feel anything for Rhys and Nancy, I don’t mind watching them but I don’t feel any kind of connection to them or have strong opinions either way.

AJ was amazing tonight and she looked phenomenal!!! The dress for the waltz was amazing from the waist up, and her Rumba dress was just gorgeous and she looked beautiful. For some reason their dance routine made me think of Torvil and Dean when they performed the Bolero Grin

I thought Rose’s first dance was a little dull but she was amazing in her Argentine Tango - we got to see the sexy and alluring side to her and she pulled it off fantastically! And lovey Gio back in the guyliner…yummy! I found the whole routine mesmerising.

So AJ and Ross to go through without a doubt.

And as for John of Rhys, I guess it could be either.

@Maireas a period that has been tragically under represented in contemporary dance! Fingers crossed 🤞representation Thomas Telford in one of the show dances next week.

CounsellorTroi · 11/12/2021 20:56

All votes to Rhys. I want him to be in the final.

Absolutely. The pioneering agrarian work of Turnip Townsend would make a touching Couple's Choice.

GreenLunchBox · 11/12/2021 20:57

I think this year has been a bit underwhelming. There wasn't a Danny Mac or an Aleesha Dixon

EvilRingahBitch · 11/12/2021 20:58

The maths is pretty simple. Assuming that Rose is a vote magnet and Rhys is box office poison then whoever gets more votes out of John and AJ is in the dance-off against Rhys. That would unfortunately mean that we'd be going into the final with a definite listing of viewer popularity for each contestant.

Help. Just sat down to watch and it's not on iPlayer yet. Any ideas?!

I’m chuckling

EvilRingahBitch · 11/12/2021 21:00

It always takes a crazy time for SCD to go up on iPlayer for some reason. It's infuriating but you have to be patient.

That happened to me last week and I found I could watch it immediately on my phone instead.

@Maireas there is the potential for a horrible mixup by Vicki Giggles and make-up if they hear one couple will be paying tribute to Jethro Tull.

I'm not very patient!! Thank you. We have a new tv so couldn't record it.

No, Ringers were thin on the ground this year. 😂
coodawoodashooda · 11/12/2021 21:08

I noticed that too.

Its been nice to not have proper ringers

JacquelineCarlyle · 11/12/2021 21:12

I agree @Samcro

ChoccyJules · 11/12/2021 21:13

I thought it was a very clear depiction of life on a canal barge and clearly there’s a lot of that in 21st Century South Africa (because let’s face it, Johannes is all about Johannes this year). Most bizarre.

I want Rose and AJ in the final. I think Rhys will go home tomorrow, whoever he‘s up against.

It’s weird how there seems to be such chemistry between Gio and Rose who aren’t a thing, when all the judges and presenters are chucking in hints about AJ and Kai who appear to have less of a connection. Or maybe they hide it well?

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 11/12/2021 21:14

I’ve never quite stopped giggling at the Jackie Wilson muddle.

And my name ain’t Vicky.

Haha, true, but I like a ringer, me Grin

That was one of the greatest mixups of all time. 🎯🎹🤷‍♀️
SheldonesqueTheBstard · 11/12/2021 21:18

Jethro and Michel Lullin de Châteauvieux did fancy tools.

Unfortunately I watched Dead Ringers the other night and the tools in that have quite put me off gadget talk.

You all started speaking about ringers and that. I’m technically not chatting shit. technically. It linked up a bit in my head 🤷‍♀️
