I thought they were awful and they were slap bang in the middle of the dancefloor so we didn't miss a thing they did. Their Swing/Jive was extremely heavy and clumsy and yet they managed third place? I'd have had them off before even Gavin!
I know we're only quibbling over a point or two, but it's the principle that counts.
And I was really impressed with their Paso and felt it worthy of the marks they got before I'm accused of bias (I sense the board is quite tense tonight!).

To be honest I hated the whole swingathon I dont like it as an addition to the show at all.
I didn't think they deserved 3rd place in it anyway, whenever the camera was on them they seemed to be doing the same move
You don't say. I really I am scared tonight!
It is getting ridiculous how much tension there is.
I liked their Paso- and I was surprised that I did when I heard the music!
not sure about the value of the Swingathon at all- I think apart from Kara none of them were brilliant and I am not sure how the judges were differentiating (have to say I was doing the shopping on the Sainsbug website by that time so wouldn't make the best comments on this! )
Its very tense on here- apparently we can criticise anyone but Matt! *runs for cover!* (which I haven't it was Aliona at fault- although she should have made sure he could do a back basic before giving him so many!!)
I thought they looked extremely heavy too. Not sure about before Gavin & Katya but definitely before Scott & Natalie.
I thought they were terrible too, it looked heavy and clompy.
They were very unflattering! :eek:
Actually, the bits of Pamela I saw were a mix of being good and heavy footed. From what I could see, she got more heavy footed as time went on, assumedly because she ran out of energy.
I think she's a crap dancer, just to be perfectly clear. Being 61 shouldn't give her a free pass to the final.
The utterly gruesome gurning all the way through that swingathon was quite off-putting as well.
Yer what??
Pamela looked clumpy in giant black shoes.
There is no way you can tell in a few seconds who to eliminate.
rubbish rubbish rubbish
I think the same , I think she is very heavy footed and I dont care if she is 61 or 21 , thats not the point . If she wants to be taken seriouely why keep rabbiting on about her age ?
Whaaaaaat?! No one told me this!
The swingaton should have been foxtrot, waltz , tango or quickstep and then you can judge just how much real dance they have learned
standing on the spot in jive gave not a clue as to the control of dance in real competition values as opposed to a set routine ironed in across a week
Agreed. I think she looks very heavy and clumpy a lot of the time. I hated the paso. The chair did its bit for knocking about half a minute off, and the rest just stomping about. Ugh.
