It makes me really sad how ageist pp are about AR. To be able to move like That at 79 should be celebrated, not denigrated!

I agree. There are other ways to express disappointment. I doubt she asked for favouritism

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 19/11/2023 19:50

Gosh Dianne, you can calm down a bit!

Is there something wrong with sound in the ballroom? All the music is really underpowered.

Layton doing ballroom next week?

Sounds like it

@NigelHarmansNewWife He's done couples choice.

She's amazing and I can't imagine my mother who is the same age being anything like as good, but she's been consistently overmarked relative to her actually dancing ability and hasn't progressed as much as the others still in.

EsmaCannonball · 19/11/2023 19:51

Bobby is doing worse in the dance-off. Less energy and a few mistakes.

DontBeAPrickDarren · 19/11/2023 19:51

Kids thought Claud’s singing was hilarious - maybe we’re not the right audience? 😆

I’m not ageist, but she is ready I think. She struggled with the group dance and a bit with her own dance.

the lovely Debbie McGee was amazing and held her own.

I agree with others though, 10 years ago she would have belted it.

Beaverbridge · 19/11/2023 19:52

Bye Angela. Claudia needing to give that "singing" a chuck.

Appalonia · 19/11/2023 19:52

Bobbie is not a great dancer. The only thing he has on his side is youth.

DontBeAPrickDarren · 19/11/2023 19:52

Waaah Bobby, the mistakes!

It doesn't help that Dianne has dialled it up to 11.

Kai is a safe pair of hands isn't he

GrouchyKiwi · 19/11/2023 19:53

Agree that Bobby was worse this time around. A few mistakes, and definitely looked exhausted.

Princessfluffy · 19/11/2023 19:53

Bobbys dance off sadly not the best

whiteshutters · 19/11/2023 19:53

Her mouth 😩

FelicityGraceSpoon · 19/11/2023 19:53

I'm not ageist at all and I think she's incredible

Surely it's more ageist to patronise someone by keeping them in and heaping praise and over marking when they're not up to the standard of the dancers remaining??

januaryjan · 19/11/2023 19:53

If Angela goes then she is going in style. Thoroughly enjoyed their partnership - just lovely.

xsquared · 19/11/2023 19:53

EsmaCannonball · 19/11/2023 19:47

Is that going to be an American Smooth or a rumba for Katya and Nigel?

I'd say rumba, given it's a power ballad love song, he's already done a ballroom this week, and did ballroom two weeks before that, and they are long due a Latin.

I can't make up my mind whether Layton will do a Charleston to It's oh so quiet or American Smooth.

TitsInAbsentia · 19/11/2023 19:53

Well if they keep Rangela in I'm expecting a jive next week...

MouseMinge · 19/11/2023 19:54

Bobby was a little bit mistake heavy second time around.

I agree. She has been one of the poorest dancers for a couple of weeks now. I'm glad she got to dance at Blackpool though. She's probably ready to go too tbf. And to do a lovely American Smooth twice. She couldn't do any fast dances either and she would have had to later on.

GrouchyKiwi · 19/11/2023 19:54

Also thought Angela was worse. Wasn't quite as elegant as last night.

Mylobsterteapot · 19/11/2023 19:54

They’ve both made so many mistakes…
