Strictly Come Dancing

[themoon66]

I thought this started on 20th Sept. DH reckons he's seen a trailer saying it is tomorrow!

Does anyone know anything about this????

Wtf is wrong with Brendan? Is he never going to be happy unless he is with someone like Alesha?

He's a bumhole.

Jessie was awful but at least her make up had been toned down this week - she looked a bit less tangoed. Perhaps they have someone new in makeup and wardrobe.

Tess and Anton are dancing for Children In Need - can't wait to see that = she will be dreadful/

Jessie's hair is so much better off her face and not teased into that bod,plus he long drssees (esp. her rehearsal skirts) are too long for her body
I love Cherie..I never cringe when she dances as I have done previously when an 'older' woman dances- she just has everything really ! Still love Jodie as she seems so genuine. Absolutely agree about Lisa...I can't put my finger on it, amazingly good legs but she just seems a bit vulgar,if that's the right word - I'd say 'common' but that's quite inflammatory on mn.

bod ?

I don't like Lisa anyway - I saw an episode of Britain's Next Top Model and it was just WRONG without Tyra!

Now Tyra on SCD would be amazing!

Missed the beginning so only got half of Cherie's dance and missed what from the flashback looked like a rather blunderbuss rumba from Jodie, will watch online.

The guys' dance was absolutely dreadful I thought, Len was right to say basically "you're all out except Tom and Austin once you have to compete with the girls".

Wondering how Cherie's going to fare in a faster dance, ditto - but in a much more extreme way! - John.

Oh, you all hate lisa, I don't see all the commonness/insincerity you do, I really like her, I think she's sweet and genuine. Brendan OTH was not happy with his marks at all. He looked so pissed off. I also loved Cherie, Arlene was right, James did dance tenderly with her. Rachel and Vincents Quickstep was also just lovely.

Was absolutely hypnotised by Cherie. I think she is astonishing. So does James, clearly - fabulous chemistry between them.

Lisa - meh. Great legs, nice 'lines' but a cold, cold fish. Brendan never does his partners any favours by behaving like a petulant primadonna, either.

Rachel - there's nothing to dislike about her, is there? She's sweet and pretty and a great dancer but... I just can't get excited about her.

Jodie - ohhh, I heart her. I will be gutted when she goes and she'll be going soon, I reckon. Thought her rhumba was a bit jerky but not nearly as bad as was made out. She is lovely.

The group dance - lord above Andrew Castle looks to have improved a bit, I thought - but still has 'bottom issues'...

Oh, and what about The Kiss between Jodie and Ian...?!

It was all those years spent bending over waiting for his opponent to serve; he probably has permanent bottom-sticking-out-ness.

I'm sure Cherie has had more than just ballroom training. She's got ballet-dancer's arms. Mind you, don't most actors spend years doing all sorts of different training, including dance?

I like Lisa Snowden, I think she seems very down to earth - funny how othere pereciev her differently.

I saw her do BNTM and thought she was fab - Tyra is too screamy for my liking nowadays!

Brendan really needs to get over himself. But despite that, it is amazing to watch him dance, and when he's not being a tit, he does normally come over as a nice guy. Shame Lisa's not up to winning it for him.

Cherie was stunning. And I read she's 56. Wow! I am soo impressed. Don't worry about Jodie, there must be at least 4 others to go out before she gets the elbow. But I'm afraid if it's a dance off between her and John, I'd vote for John.

Yes DrN I like Lisa Snowdon too. If she does keep improving she's in with a reasonable chance. A lot of people like Brendan (female fans) and she'll have one those "journey" stories.

Didn't I read somewhere that Cherie has had professional training?? But all credit it to her, it'd be nice to see an oldie do really well for once.

What does 'ballet arms' mean?

Umm, when were this couple World Champs? He is not exactly in great condition?

Cherie has ballet arms

Oh, and at Lisa Snowdon's sister! Why isn't she the model?

...wil stop now

Aha, was right about Heather (right three wks on the trot now [immodest emoticon]), but obviously Jessie will go, unless Heather falls on her face.

am glad Heather was saved - I love Brian

Feel so sorry for Jessie as she was trying her best but I think she knew that it was time for her to go.

I'm already really excited about next week - to be able to compare all the dancers properly, should be interesting.

Bye bye Jessie.

LOL at John wanting to do the Samba. Whose he kidding? He wants the American Smooth. I heart John.

I really wanted to hug Jessie.

PurleyQueen - "Ballet Arms" are much like tennis elbow, I'm an expert, me...

Just jumping back on this thread so I can catch up and comment later...I missed both shows this weekend , thank the non-existent lord for iplayer.Will be back once I've seen and judged

Did anyone else think that Bruce's joke about money at the beginning was a bit dodgy, given the controversy about the dancers' pay?

So ballet arms is bad?
