Are they just going to do the "drunken slow dance at the end of a wedding reception" ?

FitYeDaeinYeMadRadge · 12/12/2022 20:57

I proper warmed to Nancy this year. Much calmer and totally lovely.

Trees6 · 12/12/2022 20:57

I’ve warmed to Carlos.

To be fair, if you watched Vito in that dance, he was haphazard and clumsy in that dance too.. I presumed it was the character of what they were both portraying.

Mrsjayy · 12/12/2022 20:57

Oh it' was all very emosh I hope Nancy is alright.

Thank goodness Anton mentioned the clumsy lift, noticeable that both Craig and Motsi totally ignored it but it was glaring! For me she should have gone out but Fleur pipped It. Wills speech was lovely, felt for Nancy she worked hard with him.

Yes!

That's a very intimate bit of singing with foreheads together

NooNakedJacuzziness · 12/12/2022 20:57

Bit intense

Romeiswheretheheartis · 12/12/2022 20:58

It annoys me when the professional gets so upset about going out - it's not meant to be about them!

herecomesthsun · 12/12/2022 20:58

It felt as though Nancy was the tearful contestant there

Mrsjayy · 12/12/2022 20:58

Tess's dress was disturbing me it was to pointy I didn't like it 😕

Shortkiwi · 12/12/2022 20:58

God, no one died

Hobnobswantshernameback · 12/12/2022 20:59

Tess' dress remind me of my Aunty Betty's velour sofa circa 1977

So I guess Hamza or Helen will win.

Whats your gut 🤔

CuriousMama · 12/12/2022 20:59

Hmmm Nancy was over emosh

I think it was because she was so upset, he was doing that thing where you get really close to someone so they're protected from view and say calming things to them. You could see the others around them were feeling for Nancy. It hit her hard.

FitYeDaeinYeMadRadge · 12/12/2022 21:00

Tess’s dress reminded me of the stretchy velour sofa covers in the eighties

sorry frock designer person

Lentilweaver · 12/12/2022 21:00

I know Molly won't win but I want her to a fantastic show dance with lots of feathers and glitter and spectacular lifts and super gurning by Carlos!

2Rebecca · 12/12/2022 21:00

They chose the worse dance for the dance off

I liked the colour but didn't like the knots over her boobs. She has a lovely figure, but they give her some strange dresses at times!

Gosh, maybe that's why I like it so much - I'm a sucker for anything mid century!

FitYeDaeinYeMadRadge · 12/12/2022 21:01

Hahahaha so @Hobnobswantshernameback

@keepcalm11 but Hamza was wearing the clothes for the 1st dance , so I thought they let them choose?

They do let them choose.

SequinsandStilettos · 12/12/2022 21:02

I would have saved Will there actually.
But as I am Team Hamza, it makes no difference to me.
Hamza for the win.
