Kai deserves compensation for possibly the worst outfit ever

He wasn't painted blue, or green, so no.

The worst part for me was the costume for Layton. On ITT Vicky Gill revealed a kind of netted skirt that would go over biker shorts. I think that look would have been much better, much edgier, than what he ended up in. He looked to me like a teacher on Little House on the Prairie. Skirt was way too long and conservative.

I'd forgotten we were shown that in the ITT preview. I've just watched it back, and we were shown pleated front cropped trousers, like Rizzo wears in the film, with a sheer circle-skirt-shaped overlay.

Agreed, Rizzo would never have worn anything like Layton's costume last night, nor would any other character in Grease.

I did like the black skirt, which was made from soft fabric with lots of movement. It's good for dancing, but not for this number.

Your description of the ITT outfit preview was much better than mine :)) I was actually excited when I saw that. But the final outfit was not good at all imo. Agree that the skirt was gorgeous - but not for that song and not for Layton.

I'm all caught up as well. Bloody hell it goes on at the beginning.
So..

The pro dance was one of the most gorgeous things I've seen and I loved it and it made me cry a little bit.

Having said (based on you lot 😂) I'd have voted for Amanda, Krishnan and Jody, I'd really have voted for Annabel (also made me sentimental a little bit and Johannes is so gentle with his partners, pure magic) Ellie (Vito is doing less of the out-dancing and she is good ) and Bobby- I really enjoyed that.

Mind you, I might still have chucked Jody a point because a lot of more precious slebs would have (and have) pulled a free pass/sick note for a lot less than what he's had to put up with this week.

Motsi looked 3 stone lighter- it was her arms and chest covered I think. The Mabute women are magnificent of cleavage and at times it makes them look chunky up top. She looked amazing. ❤️ She has also really toned down her shouting and bawling and is actually giving proper criticism this year.

Adam, Zara, Jody, Nikita, Nigel all whoosh gone out of my head in mediocrity the minute they'd finished. Though I enjoyed Nikita's more than Zara's tbh. And the paso is my favourite. That just was a shit one. I don't think Graziano is a great choreographer tbh.

Both Amanda and Angela Scanlon are starting to give me Helen Skelton vibes. They're good, they know it, they want it. Both leaving me suddenly a bit cold. Despite their proficiency.

I can't work out if Angela Rippon is playing a part. She was not a ditsy posh woman in her heyday. Has she turned into one? Dunno. Kai deserves compensation for possibly the worst outfit ever, and why the atrocious wig? Some of the VT children were brunette.

The CC wasn't even that good. Karen completely outdanced him in a manner worthy of a Carlos outdance your sleb. I couldn't take my eyes off her.

And I'll end by saying I think, ever so slightly, Layton is becoming ever so slightly less arrogant and ever so slightly more humble. He'll get my vote the day he dances against Jayde Adams and not a day before, but I think he is starting to realise he's not that spesh after all.

You've lost me... how can Layton dance against Jayde Adams?

I was wondering that.

My late MIL sounded EXACTLY like Angela Rippon, it’s disconcerting every time she speaks. Never heard MIL say “knickers” though.

Angela reminds me of an unnerving combination of my late DM and my stepmother (with whom I'm on cordial terms). I wouldn't put it past either of them to shout Knickers! when cross in mixed company.

@cordelia16, you remembered much better than I did. I had to go back and rewatch that section.

And I only remembered because I have a very serious ProNikita obsession, and so I take note of everything he does/is involved with :)

They are still punishing her for dating Kai

I've got to say Gorka is a hot Ken

AnneShirleysNewDress · 08/10/2023 19:20

DD6 is insistent that only the Barbie in thr black and white dress in the real Barbie. Loving Gorka as Ken.

I was thinking the same.

Neil as Alan! Lol
Loved that film
Tess looking gorgeous as usual

GrouchyKiwi · 08/10/2023 19:21

I thought Tess was wearing a cardigan.

And I was a bit more taken with Nikenta.

Brainwashed · 08/10/2023 19:21

Neil as Alan 😂😂

ThePoshUns · 08/10/2023 19:22

Loved loved that! Loved Karen as bad Barbie and Neil as Alan! Great fun.
Gorka was hot as Ken too

Purplestorm83 · 08/10/2023 19:23

Loving Karen as weird Barbie!

petalpower · 08/10/2023 19:25

Who do we think is in the dance off? Nikita/Gorka and Jody/Jowita?

SequinsandStiIettos · 08/10/2023 19:25

Heights will be why Dianne got main Barbie. Karen was good as weird Barbie and Nadiya as iconic Barbie. It was a good pro routine. I remember when they showed Ryan Gosling promo shots and someone posted Gorka as a side by side when he had dyed his hair blonde and was wearing neon Grin

GrouchyKiwi · 08/10/2023 19:26

Tess's shirt would look better with navy trousers.

MouseMinge · 08/10/2023 19:26

Gorka was a super hot Ken. Nadiya was stunning and Karen was great as weird Barbie. That is my boring post.
