SCD 23 #15 Will Craig Find His 10 Paddle? NO SPOILERS

[EineReiseDurchDieZeit]

Keep Dancing

it's such a shame she had to dance this to stay in the competition. If it had been last week's Argentine Tango against Leyton and Nikita this week I think might have been a different story.

I reckon so too.

Yes! Cake by the Ocean... It was fab.

I occasionally get a bit damp-eyed over some of the SCD dances but never for a contempowaft/contempotwat barefoot bollocks of a dance. No matter who well it's done it will never be up to real contemporary dance and I hate emotional manipulation like that.

On the whole, I'm nicer here than when I'm less guarded with a friend. I texted this to a friend last night during the cc "Your mum's dead. Whatever. Put on some shoes you lanky twat." Not nice, but that was the emotion the dance elicited from me.

A couple of male slebs have done really good cha chas in week 1 then not really improved. Jason Donovan was one, and I can't remember who the other one was.

Gosh that was very tense, I think there is quite a competitive vibe between all the celebs this year

Very pleased Layton made it through, not a good week for him but every week it's him I am waiting to watch so would be sad for him to not make the final weeks of the show (I think it would be a bit boring without him and Nikita)

Jason Donovan got to the semis, didn't he? (I can't actually remember how good he was though.)

I totally feel this is a bit of a set up - score Layton a bit lower, throw him in the dance off because you'll always save him, garner a bit more support/popularity for him. I'm sure we've seen this before with other people.

Layton hasn't really given us anything new for weeks, it's the same moves rehashed in an attempt to fit a style of dance. I bit Nikita is exhausted of the performance...

Hurrah for Layton and Nikita staying. Let’s hope they don’t get sabotaged by the wardrobe department and whoever chooses the songs next week.

I like Bobby. Perhaps he’s not had enough challenge. I feel he makes what he does look easy. He got good height in his jumps and landed perfectly in time. He is cursed with massive hands, but does really well otherwise.

Wardrobe were definitely sniffing sharpie pens when they pulled those horrors out....

Maybe Layton will take the hint and stop pissing about doing backflips in a dress and concentrate on actually dancing properly

🤣🤣🤣🤣

@pickledandpuzzled
I think same about Bobby, love watching him dance, but oddly, maybe, I get why others don't. He's definitely a bit marmite on here.

I would love Hamilton for musicals week, even Layton. Two men in breeches!
Or the musical ‘Six’.

Nigel and Annabelle were the weakest dancers this week. That Nigel is in, while Angela is out - travesty. I love Angela. I’m fewmin… ;-)

I really like Layton. I want Ellie to win it, but I really enjoy watching Layton dance every week. It’s just joyful to watch him and Nikita. Annabelle is too prim and precise. She doesn’t make me smile. Nigel is a one trick pony. A man staying in on a rhumba! Yeah. Furious.

Jason got to the finals. He did an amazingly camp tango to - coincidentally- I Will Survive, a good but deeply sinister Argentine Tango and a full on leave-it-all-on-the-floor showdance.

Kelvin Fletcher.

Really gutted about Angela - it’s not fair she was kicked out whilst Layton gets to stay.

I hope he’s in the dance off next week and really screws up and gets voted out by the judges 🤞

He is not what Strictly is about at all.

I’m always re-watching Kelvin’s dances on You Tube. He was phenomenal - especially his Cha Cha!!

I was a Kelvin fan that year, but I don't tend to re-watch his dances. I seem to recall his 'dancing face' being a little off putting in those upbeat numbers, but perhaps I'm misremembering!

He certainly was. I just thought Angela’s CCC was insipid and lacked any oomph.

Kelvin’s CCC added to video thread…

I've just realised I'm 'out out' next Saturday night so if someone could shout 'put some blood shoes on' at anyone who dares to contempo waft for me I would be very grateful.

Shame that Bobby and his wafting sob fest

got him through.
sad that Angela went and never got to do a cc and make Shirley cry

Sure. I'll volunteer!

Sharleen has no need to dress up, fake tan, reveal flesh or sequin it up, as she is an absolute Goddess anyway.

I saw them live in Glasgow back in the day, she was dressed in leather and I swear that woman had seduced us all, gay or straight, by the end of the first song. Mesmerising.
