Yes maybe Neil was trying to her Jowita by offering her a microphone because she’s did have to use a hand microphone. I went off Jowita after she was giving Tasha the vilest loook he her week. Perhaps she just happens to have rbf but it didn’t sit well with me.

I'd also like it if she and Kai got together. There's something about them, they look good together.

Lauren is happily married with cats.

I agree with your points about JB. I was just thinking that it wasn't a fluke when he did well with Lauren with his couples choice. As the weeks progressed, he became a confident, versatile dancer rather than just someone learning to dance, and looked entirely at ease in ballroom as well as Latin.

I wonder which dance the judges will.pick for him to improve on, and whether it will be one that he's done with Amy rather than Lauren.

I would like to see his jive dibe again with Lauren. Think it could be fab with her plus his new found confidence.

JB has an interesting history, studied music, changed to rugby, started a theology degree and gave it up to join JLS, and he won the christmas strictly 2012

i like how he dances

'jive dibe'?? I meant done of course 🙄

Did anyone else pick up on Anton suggesting that it was Pete’s last dance?

Yep, that's what prompted my comment about whether we knew what the public vote actually said. That kind of gave away to me that it was predetermined. But as I said I am a cynical old baggage Grin

I would too, but the jive landed him and Amy in a dance off. Have the judges ever picked a dance that has landed a contestant in a dance off?

Who was the guy sitting next to Angela Rippon (left side when looking at tv( with shaved hair at sides ?

How come they say to Sarah your jive wasn’t quite soft enough for a jive. So a jive must have a certain style. Yet the AT well Pete, it doesn’t have to contain the basic steps?
Not on.
The AT was originally danced by 2 men so would be nothing like Pete’s AT.

I've just caught up.. and this is it exactly. What a load of crap the scoring and judging is! Pete is so far below the standard of the others it makes no sense that he got 9s when so did Sarah and Tasha. Every time people say they think Pete is hot I think it's a joke - that wet look hair 🤢

JB to win, but I really hope it's him, Chris and Sarah in the final.

GrouchyKiwi · 08/12/2024 09:55

The nonsense judging inconsistencies have really taken the shine off the show for me this year. (As well as all the horrible stuff about Gio/Graz etc.)

This is supposed to be a happy, lovely, cheerful show, that lifts the spirits. But not for me this year.

Shaved head guy was Paul Hollywood

Thank you, but I meant tgg he E younger chap the other side ?

NigelHarmansNewWife · 08/12/2024 10:30

I've just caught up. Pete is definitely at the end of the line. He did nothing in that AT, Jowita just danced around him. Chris's Charleston was pretty poor and his VW not much better though he has done brilliantly. I think Pete needs to go and the final three should be Sarah, Tasha and JB. I would like to see a woman win, but think JB has started from less than Sarah and Tasha so has made more progress.

Figgygal · 08/12/2024 10:35

Not caught up with last night's show but placemarking for later

EvilRingahBitch · 08/12/2024 10:48

Most of the judges' comments to Pete were nonsense, but OTOH if you put the boot in that can really motivate people to pick up the phone in the "victim's" defence. Soft comments, and over generous scores that still leave them at the bottom of the leaderboard combined with no ties is the best way to get a popular duffer out.

ilovesooty · 08/12/2024 10:51

I hope that if Pete avoids the dance off and Sarah and Tasha end up there Craig at least will say that it's a dance off that shouldn't be happening.

Very true. I do like Pete, and he has improved a lot compared to the start when he couldn't even clap in time to the beat, but I think I'd prefer the final without him as imo the dances from the other 4 would be better than what he'd produce, in spite of his improvement.

Yes, Shirley was talking about Sarah who is 53

Pumpkincozynights · 08/12/2024 11:02

I said yesterday that I predict it will be Tasha and Sarah in the DO. I don’t want either of them to go but I did give all my 3 votes to Chris. I just think he and Diane are amazing.
I think Diane deserves a very long holiday after this. I cannot imagine how extremely difficult this must have been for her.
I also think it’s worth remembering that Tasha has a disability too, despite being a dancer.
Next time I really hope that Lauren gets a partner, and Karen gets through to the final.

ThisAquaCrow · 08/12/2024 11:02

I think Pete will go tonight.

I really do not like JB. Any of the other three to win 😁I do think Chris will win-he’s amazing 😀

Bluevelvetsofa · 08/12/2024 11:03

I think Chris will carry the public vote, so Dianne will get the win.

I’d prefer JB because he has improved the most with a change of partner and Lauren is awesome.

Used to like Vito, but he’s become irritating and was never a fan of Sarah, particularly dressed as a fringed lampshade.

Tasha is amazing, but she should be with her background. Alijaz, not so much.

I imagine Pete’s social media will get behind him again, but he’s ground to a halt.

Pumpkincozynights · 08/12/2024 11:07

Regarding all the fringing, even dh commentated on it all.
Perhaps Vicky got a bulk discount at the haberdashery!

I loved the blue and green in Lauren’s dress. Reminded me of a beautiful green and blue outfit I saw in Jigsaw. Unfortunately I couldn’t afford it.

I'm confused about what's to not like about JB? Seems like a pretty humble guy to me.

He seems an OK guy, I just think he's got more dance experience than people realise, having done a programme similar to this before, with his wife. To me, he's good but not great - he's no Danny Mac.
