Hello again!!

Just watching this on iPlayer, missed it last night due to upset baby but looked up the result this morning...quelle surprise.

Really I just came on here to say wtf is with Tess Daly's hideous gold dress and sideways waterfall hair?

Just watched this too. Lisa and Brendan's dance was just toe curling, I thought. They tried to be like that very bendy pair that did that amazing, rather acrobatic routine a few weeks back, so aside from the fact that Brendan looked like he was trying to roll a tree trunk up his body, the total lack of originality was annoying.

I thought Tom was good - I think Camilla's lovely, actually and can understand why she wanted to win so much. When you've got that far, who wouldn't? Much better than Brendan's arrogance, and Vincent's sex-pestiness any day IMO.

Is tom's showdance on t'internet anywhere? Would love to watch it again.

Pennies · 21/12/2008 22:53

It's on you tube, I think.

MaryMotherOfCheeses · 21/12/2008 22:58

Aaaaaaah, thank you

Just watched it again. Really very good.

Dh said "it's over Mary, you've just got to let it go..."

I'm stunned he didn't come over and watch it with me

Just watched the results show properly for the first time - Lisa and Brendan's showdance was dreadful, poor them.

Champions' dance still the best bit though ... ahhh ... Ramprakash ...

I think camilla is just awful to watch actually, I really don't like her dancing, too messy and overdanced, and she looks like a stick in the latin dances. I am really disappointed that Tom wom, actually, he should have been in a dance off semi final week imo. His show dance was great though!

I am gutted that lisa was knocked out first, thought she looked amazing in her show dance costume, don't think many would look that good, but WTF was Brendan thinking choreographing that!

cyLENTeeNIGHT · 22/12/2008 14:02

ahaha, how fantastically 80s was lisa + brendan's showdance? shocking.

cyLENTeeNIGHT · 22/12/2008 14:18

okay, so i'm never going to be tom or camilla's biggest fan. but give them their due, that showdance was fantastic. MUCH better than rachel + vincent's which just looked like a collection of lifts strung together with random bits and pieces.

over for another year - so glad i don't have to hear arlene screech "let me tell you..." yet again

wrapstar · 22/12/2008 14:24

Lisa & Brendan's showdance was so embarrassing. All that rolling on the floor! And where did Lisa and Rachel's costumes go?? Strictly come Swimming, more like.
Tom and Camilla's showdance was lovely, lots of humour, not trying to be 'raunchy' (bleugh) musical, charming and with lots of real dancing, which I didn't seme from Lisa and Brendan or Rachel and Sex Pest (lol)

cyLENTeeNIGHT · 22/12/2008 14:24

at Duffy....even she looked bored by her lacklustre performance.

TheOtherMaryPoppinsJingles · 22/12/2008 15:21

I know, she could hardly be bothered to the arm dancing bit, never mind actually sing it. But goodness isn't she tiny?

tribpot · 22/12/2008 17:35

Is it Duffy's first time trying to sing whilst being entirely outshone by writhing Strictly professionals? It can throw a girl off, so I've heard.

I've never liked that 'Cirque du Soleil' style of show dancing, much better to have a rockin' good time and end on a high note than some melodrama, esp if you can't actually carry it off. I must say, Lisa doesn't look like she's light as a feather, one does recall Craig's comment about "lifting dead weight" when reviewing Mark and Karen's show dance - the man's got a point. Which I should add is not to suggest I think Lisa looks like a heifer, she's a fine figure of a woman.

Tom and Camilla's showdance wasn't entirely my cup of tea either, I don't like Camilla's tendency to go for the oddball facial expressions. But for style and grace it was definitely the best. And, god knows, nothing like the terrible depths of the infamous Puppet Dance a la Jackson.

I did feel for poor old Kaplinsky. She was clearly like "I could be sleeping right now but instead I have come on national telly feeling like s**t" [although not looking like it].

I can confirm tess is preggers well done MN dectives

JimJammum · 27/12/2008 19:42

One last post from me as there will be no excuse now it's finished . One - Alesha and Matthew should have won the Christmas special imo. Two, if any one loves the pro dances, then I highly recommend a DVD called Burn the Floor - 40-odd pro dancers in a show which toured in 1999. They are absolutely amazing, and nice to be able to recognize some moves and dance styles from my extensive Strictly viewing. You can get from amazon....
