Oh Annabelle. I think she's amazing dancing to all these sad songs so soon after being bereaved.

PastorCarrBonarra · 09/12/2023 20:42

I am a big Smiths fan and I like this version.

Ofc he can dance, it's his actual job after all and he gets paid to do it.....

Show quote history

That would be a fairly safe rule of thumb for future - "have you been paid to dance in a public forum?" anyone who answers yes is out...

Annabelle looks worn out

She was always slim, but she seems to have lost more weight this week.

Well for a start they didn't dance the Charleston until series 6... get it right Craig. Grin

Ones I like/remember well were Sophie and Brendan, Chris and Ola, Caroline and Pasha, Ashley and Pasha, AJ and Kai.

DVO and James

Ellmau · 09/12/2023 20:42

That was really lovely. It felt very elegaic, I think they expect to go home.

WelshFionaThePlasticSurgeryGorgon · 09/12/2023 20:42

Amazing? Come on...

WeneedSamVimesonthecase · 09/12/2023 20:42

That was pretty but not enough to save her, I don't think.

Agree.

There is a gorgeous version of this song in Ferris Bueller.

the80sweregreat · 09/12/2023 20:43

I fear Annabel might be in danger
She did well though

I'll add Aljaz and Clara to that list.

SequinsandStiIettos · 09/12/2023 20:43

I liked her VW. It just needed a nicer dress and arm hankies.

SgtBilko · 09/12/2023 20:41

I agree the competition wouldn’t be up to much without him. His dancing is thrilling.

Show quote history

I agree. I'm not that bothered about ringers in any case, but sometimes I just have to just really watch him. I dont normally vote for him because he doesnt need the votes, but I think I will this week.

BeaLola · 09/12/2023 20:44

Seriously Motsi - of course he's at a different level compared to all the others you watch

ilovebrie8 · 09/12/2023 20:44

She did well

And this

SauvignonBlanche · 09/12/2023 20:44

That was lovely.

WillowTit · 09/12/2023 20:44

Motsi waffles

ThursdayLastWeek · 09/12/2023 20:44

I have vague recollections of Georgia and Joe Varney Charleston being pretty good too

chaosmaker · 09/12/2023 20:44

I think she's loved being on the show but she must know she's out. If I was a contestant I'd want complete honesty from the judges and not all the feel good waffle stuff.

Show quote history

Oh yes, hers was very good. Faye and Gio too.

(And we should remember that some people have to dance them earlier, so then they might not be so good. It makes comparison really tricky.)

That was gorgeous from Annabel but I still think she'll miss out on the final.

pickledandpuzzled · 09/12/2023 20:44

Are the singers doing something different? It’s like they are deliberately doing it very different to the original.

That particular singer I don’t like- it’s nasal Disney Princess singing.
