Strictly '22 #10 — Can we have ballroom dancing theme week please?

A nice shiny new thread for a non-theme week week! Let's hope there are no invasions of haunted bees onto this one...

SPOILER-FREE THREAD

I like the Ellie Johannes partnership. She tones him down a bit; they're cute together.
For a non-dancer, it must be very difficult to learn that "between the steps" bit - if she's supposed to do something between steps and doesn't do it naturally, they'll need to show her what to do.

not a fan of Mollie and partner

I am sorry, but, Ellie, Ellie, Ellie 💪

agreed

loved the style of frock

DH never votes and he's going to give her 3. Me too.

Molly and Carlos were very cute!

Tess’ dress reminds me of the lemon curd in a jar from my childhood. God knows what was in it but I loved it.

Best thing about that dance was the dress

Criag, I am not listening to you any more tonight, You have made me very grumpy indeed. I thought you were better than that.

It's really annoying.

Come on Mollie !
I like Shirley's dress too

I really enjoyed Ellie T's dance, I'll vote for her because I liked the "drama"

Love the frock SO much. Beautifully danced but they give me the ick and I have to acknowledge to myself that for no good reason at all I don't like either of them.

I hope the scoring is tactical, if the judges score low, the public will vote for Ellie and keep her in.

I thought that was good. But votes are going to Ellie T tonight

Like Molly, her dress is beautiful but that was a bit dull. I think having a new pro in Carlos doesn't help. If she was with Giovanni or Gorka she'd be more likeable

NEIL!

Mollie and Carlos dance was lovely.

Yes, the ones with new pros are really disadvantaged.

Neil's back!

Neil is lurking !! 😂

Can't wait for Tony...

Evening all. Got stuck in traffic on the way home so running in late.

Hamza was overmarked, Ellie ridiculously undermarked, so we're back to batshit scoring.

Molly was good (shades of Ashley Roberts' Foxtrot there) but so saccharine my teeth itch.

I give you Jowita!

What is Neil wearing?! Trying to stand out or what!
