1. Love, love, LOVE it when they choose a well-known instrumental classical number to dance to...
2. ...even if it did conjure up images of Sr'Alan.
2. Darcey's hair needs a sharper cut.
3. Sophie and Brendan danced beautifully and I'm amazed at the low marks.
4. Bruce looked rather smart in his suit and waistcoat.
5. Missing Claudia - she brings an element of delightful eccentricity and spontaneity to the show.

    1. So wish Bruce hadn't come back. Did anyone understand the turkey reference to Natalie

    2. Abbey was a terrible fidget tonight she couldn't stand still

    3. Patrick seems to have mentally checked out of the Strictly Hotel. He had no oomph tonight at all

    4. Gethin in the audience yummy

    5. Natalie danced a technically fantastic AT & it moved me not one bit. Something sadly missing with that partnership.

    1. Laughed at Bruce's jokes... I am one of the only ones who likes him. But I do love Claudia and wouldn't be too upset if she replaced him.

    2. Gorgeous AS by Abbey. I am a Sophie fan but I loved Abbey's.

    3. I think the judges are out to get Brendan more than Sophie.

    4. Sophie's Paso was so much better the second time watching it.

    5. Susanna was wearing too much tan.

    1. Natalie & Artem best two dances of the series. :D
    2. Sophie looked very scary with her Paso face. :o
    3. Audience clapping during the FT was annoying >:(
    4. Abbey over marked for latin again. :confused:
    5. Singers & Band were on form tonight. :)

    1. Despite Natalie saying she needed to dance the AT as though only her and Artem were in the room, she was still looking for the camera. Just didn't do it for me.
    2. For some weeks now haven't understood the love for Patrick, and tonight was no different.
    3. Even though Sophie/Brendan had classical music for the Paso, it still didn't really 'fit'
    4. Susanna's salsa was a bit "middle-aged mum in a night-club"
    5. Didn't see any bounce in Abbey's samba, but the AS was better. Now if only she would stop the inane giggling!

    1 loved Sophie and Brendan's routines. Under marked again.
    2 The judges ignored Abbey's faults again.
    3 if you find something wrong with a routine it shouldn't be awarded a 10.
    4 Brendan's choreography has been outstanding this year.
    5 Marking so bizarre that it looked as if the scores were decided before the performances took place. Not convinced the judges were saying what they really felt.

    5. Agreed. And maybe be a bit thankful when receiving the judge's praise and when she gets saved each week.

    1. Band are awesome. Loved Romeo and Juliet. And some good song choices tonight.
    2. Loved Sophie's paso to go with the awesome music.
    3. I too miss Claud :(
    4. Darcey I love you but please make the 10 actually worth working for and if you agree on something that's wrong then don't give it a 10.. like a sickled foot is a tiny thing...
    5. I liked Abbey's AS and I want to like her but it's not happening.. :/ and I'm not a fan of the judges overmarking of her :(

    can I have 10 thoughts? I keep thinking of more.

    1 Happy Natalie finally made me sit up and say wow
    2 Scoring was not far off the mark tonight for a change
    3 Loving some of the dresses (girly moment)
    4 Still having a hard time with the gurning
    5 Wonders if brucie will announce retirement at the end of the series

    PS Turkey reference was in relation to Natalies silver dress as in foil.... didn't quite work me thinks

    1. Susanna and latin don't mix - it is embarassing to watch.
    2. Didn't rate Abbey's samba - seemed rather lackluster.
    3. Glad to see that the judges Patrick love-in has waned somewhat
    4. If you point out a mistake, don't give a 10
    5. Will Strictly live to see another series?

    1. Riveted to the screen by Patrick and Anya's bizarro macrame waistcoat thingamajigs.

    2. Loved both Natalie's and Sophie's dances.

    3. Found Susannah's dances respectively over-cute and rather embarrassing.

    4. Liked the dance and like Abbey, but please step away from the 10 paddle Darcey. Pointing out a glaring error and then dishing out a 10 is poor.

    5. Ribbon at the waist is not a good look on anyone. If it doesn't work on Abbey who is basically a human twiglet, there is no way in this world it will work on Susannah who is a normal sized person.

    4) Natalie :)
    5) Abbey :D:D:D:D:D:D <3

    This is how I felt about each dance.
    Guess who my favourite is ?????

    5 Marking so bizarre that it looked as if the scores were decided before the performances took place. Not convinced the judges were saying what they really felt.

    Sound of five nails being firmly struck on head, one after another. Absolutely. So now I can pick 5 different ones for myself.

    1) Natalie is technically *brilliant*. Those closing spins were awesome. But I just find no interest or engagement in her dancing at all. Just no chemistry.
    2) Congratulations to Tess for managing to go a whole show without mispronouncing Ola's name once - quite possibly for the first time this series. :D
    3) Sophie has grown on me during the series - Susanna has shrunk. I still don't hate or despise her as some do, but each week I seem to find less to enjoy in her dancing. Shame, as Kevin remains a joy.
    4) Patrick was out of sorts tonight, enough that even kind judging couldn't rescue him. I wonder if his lack of rehearsal time - if not as severe as Ashley's - has caught up with him? He looked stiff and ill at ease several times. His poorest week in a long time.
    5) Abbey is being overmarked, but for me is probably the best dancer of them all. For me, and this is a personal thing, she beats Natalie for chemistry and emotion and beats Sophie for ease of movement and surrender to the dance.

    1. Abbey is a joy to watch
    2. I just found out tonight that Patrick is 50 :-p Enough already! We get it, he's not 80 ffs
    3. Bruce is doddery but I still like him. I like Claudia too so I'm happy with the stand in arrangement
    4. Craig and his "Bruno's on the turn Darling" comment was the best one liner of this series!
    5. I want to squish Aljaz....in a good way ;)

    1. Sophie and Brendan did the best dances of the night
    2. Producers need to rethink the show- marking. It wouldnt be a disaster if there was a series where no celeb scored a 10 in a dance, just think of the anticipation waiting to see if a celeb might manage it
    3.Tess' dress was lovely
    4.Wish Ben, Ashley and Deborah were still in the competition
    5.Susanna not the best dancer, but can put out good chemistry on the floor with KFG

    Another way of saying you don't like her. She could do the most fantastic dance and you wouldn't like her. Why not say you don't like her. Be honest.
