Placemarking with a smear of fake tan.

Thanks Polka.

Coming in with a Wet Look Nikita tribute

Little trail of sequins in lieu of breadcrumbs…

Checking in ready for the ‘Who will be in the dance off with Angela R?’ speculation. Can’t predict it for the first time this series.

Backflips off pole, over Nikita's head, and struts in

I've not previously warmed to Annabelle but I thought her dance tonight was beautiful.

The public vote will be very interesting this week!

Hops in to thread doing Morris dancing. There's a style we never see on strictly.

Please a reminder keep Facebook polls and other predictions to the spoiler thread. Personal predictions are fine!

Blackpoooool!

The judges are so mean to Nigel !

Thanks Polka 😊

Thanks!

I voted Ellie, Angela S and Annabel. I thought unchained melody would've been a good song for her CC.

Placemarking. I had to watch on a big delay due to DS refusing to go to sleep without me sat on his bed 🙄

I gave all my votes to Bobby!

I think it will be Rangela and Nige in the DO. Rangela to go.

I think Nigel will get loads of the public votes because of how disappointed he was, which makes it very hard to guess who will be in the dance off with Angela R.

I have a feeling it will be Bobby and not because he didn’t do well, but just because his dance was quite forgettable when compared to the rest.

Anyone worked out how to watch on iPlayer without the audio description? 🙄

My iPlayer automatically did it without audio description, but it’s here if you need to turn it off

Yes my DD went off to do something and I asked shall we stop watching. To which she said don’t bother just let me know when Bobby is on (she likes him) to which I said we have already watched him. It was just unforgettable even if he was channelling a young mick jagger in looks

What a fab week at Blackpool!
Ellie still my favourite of the lot. Nigel is my favourite of the guys but such a shame he was so disappointed in himself! I LOVE that style of classic quickstep as well.
Annabel's dance was so beautiful...flowing and smooth like an American smooth should be...unlike Angela who, as Anton described a bit...kinda didn't know where she was half the time and didn't meet the energy of everyone else (especially in the opening group number)
Liked Angela S but agree with Craig a bit. It also didn't blow me away as much as other argentine tangos have in the past (Kara Tointon, Harry Judd and Jason Donovan have been my favourites in the past for this dance)
Bobby did such a good job of opening the show and kept it a good, clean, compact jive.

Just a question of who's joining Angela R in the dance off....hmmmm...

Annabel was my favourite of the night. Love how she’s improved. Got all 3 of my votes. Loved Angela S also.

An all female final would be awesome. Ellie, Annabelle and Sangela for me!

Would love that!! Don’t think the BBC will allow it though. Layton will be there in the final I’m pretty certain. Though he may start being in the DO’s soon - hopefully starting tonight!

We've had an all male final before so I don't see why not
