Previous thread here.

Remember as always this is a SPOILER-FREE THREAD.

That one made me smile :) Slightly (wrongly) frantic in places but fun.

I want a Molly and Will dance off. I'd forgotten Will was still in it and yawn through every Molly dance.

I liked it.

Vito was still eating his spaghetti about a minute into that dance!

Good but a bit stompy. Maybe it's the flat shoes.

That really didn't do it for me. And I'm sad because I wanted to love it.

Was a bit clumpy, not sure the shoes helped.

Don’t know about panto but he’s playing Miss Hannigan in Annie on tour next year.

Wasn’t a fan of that

Shirley did bark out that 7. Weirdly bendy knees for Fleur

That was one of the best Charleston ever

Well that was good loved that her dress is fab even with her flat shoes .

I didn't like the black shoes, and I thought she might actually take Vito's head off in one lift. Loads of energy and verve though.

That seemed very heavy to me. Something was off. Don't know what the judges are seeing tbh.

The shoes are super- ugly

Anton used to critique the technique. Now he just gushes.

The wicked stepmother in Cinderella

Flat shoes rarely do dancers many favours. I liked it though.

Fleur is my fave, but I think that was a bit stompy and clumsy. Not a flattering dress either.

Why is everybody so disappointing?

That isn’t my favourite look for Fleur

Flat shoes were a mistake. It was very good but it didn't match up to Hamza's for me. I think a low character shoe would have made it look better.

looked a bit clunky in the lifts to me.

All side boob in her first dance and almost
a boob over the top in one of those lifts! I should stop looking at Fleur’s boobs.

Yes, the lifts were clunky:(

I wasn’t keen on Fleur’s Charleston. I didn’t like the dress and shoes combo and it looked heavy to me.
