SCD '24 #5: Where we lose our first couple (SPOILER FREE)

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

I've made this a bit early because my dinner is going to be ready just before the end of Strictly and I don't want us to run out of space! Please finish up the other thread first.

First dance off is looming...

Paso

one of the worst I've seen then

Decent paso. I enjoyed a lot of that. I hated the run at the end though, it was a bit awkward.

Too much walking and it didn't quite flow.

Chaos a tango I think

Oh sorry paso

This bears no resemblance to a paso doble at all.

Anton is burbling too much tonight

I love his Nick Carter hairstyle is still with him. Add gel and sweat and we're there!

I don't care what the films are, that's utterly irrelevant

Paso doble. It lacked a bit if shaping, and was trying and failing to be dramatic. Music ( a U2song) was awful.

Meh. It was a passable doble.

It’s movie week, of course it’s relevant!

Very good.

I really didn't like the music.

very overmarked

A fantastic side profile in that outfit nikita

Scoring has gone bonkers

Nikita is very high pitched. Also the scoring is batshit tonight

I'm so grumpy watching this. It's already a long show and the judges, especially Shirley and Anton, just won't shut up!

I didn't really care about the dancing. I was just watching Nikita.

Wtf?? Eights for THAT? Honestly I could walk up and down to U2.

Travesty!

I'm really irritated by the graphics.

Crazy over marking this week.

Oh that was a paso was it? I thought it was a walky tango.

I keep thinking that's Toyah in that blond Wayne's World wig.
