SPOILER-FREE THREAD

*Humza

I'm shedding a tear tonight
I blame the gin ..

Come on hamza now cry, we need tears.

Yes, I got the impression that some ppl were genuinely emotional and trying to hold it back (Kym, Hamza), whilst Will seems to be stretching it out . . .

What is going on with Motsi?
Hope that she is ok

Glad Motsi credited Jowita there, she was incredible!

Do we reckon they’ve given Vito a dry shirt to stop him catching cold?

Jowita definitely outdanced Hamza there and Motsi confirmed it.

Let's all cry 🙄🙄🙄

Love the music, love the lifts. Other parts of the dancing was okay, but other dancers surpassed them.

I loved that. Hamza's dancing makes me smile every time.

Just me or has it been a weird night of dancing ???

special mention to Jowita !

I used to go to the ballet a lot ( to watch!) and sometimes there would be a dancer who you just want to watch - not necessarily the best but they just have something. I think Hamza has a bit of that, I want to watch him. And he is always dancing - not just doing the steps but dancing.

Jovita was brilliant

sorry Hamza is consistently overmarked. no way was that better than Fleur.

I think Craig had the correct score there.

Completely agree with Motsi. Jowita was amazing.

They all want to go and freeze in Blackpool

Rather like other posters and Kim's baby loss, I don't need to be reminded of losing my last parent to cancer during covid.

I am not a fan of CC.

Hamza and Jowita bring joy though. They really do.

Are Hamza and Jowita lovers ?

Leaderboard

That's ridiculous, he completely lost his timing at the end, so how can that be worth a perfect 10? Craig was spot on.

Well Fleur was knock out of the night for me.
Control she's not had before and not stompy.
She's the best improver and could yet win it.
