Oh Lord........it ain't going to be pretty is it !!!! I sense a slipped disc for Vincent before we reach October !

i didnt think she was that bad tbh !, she did ok compared to jo. I have to admitt that dance was one halarious moment of tv

I wasnt watching Jp so didnt know what Craig meant when he said his comment to Brendan, will have to watch it again, to busy watching Ricky Whittle, very good!

I thought Natalie did well, they just need to give her a bit more of a forgiving costume. That one really did her no favours.

I thought her costume was dire - it reminded me of the one worn by Kat Slater last year (apologies I can't remember the name of the actress.)

To be fair she's got plenty of guts

Natalie had the right attitude for that costume, she really went for the dance and looked to be having a great time, go on girl.

What size must she have been before the training started. Vincent must be STRONG!

Um guts, yes that's it!

Now watching Derren Brown - perhaps Vincent has had subliminal messages about lifting elephants..............Have to stop typing as I am now stuck on the sofa

She's not that big, she's only a 14 which is hardly mahoosive. I thought she gave a good effort.

I'll not be watching behind a cushion, but like Gabby, there is just something to dislike about Nat (imo)

I just cannot put my finger on it. It's not just Strictly (or her well-publicised weight issues - I'm not Heidi Klum either) but just her general demeanour.

I truly can see her being out in the early rounds.

*sniggers*

LOL

..but to be fair to Natalie she won't be the worse dancer next week, I'm sure.

Yeah, I can understand what you mean there. But Im going to give her the benefit of the doubt. I was pleasantly suprised with that Chris bloke, so Im hoping I will be suprised with her.

Well I ain't risking watching her on the high definition channel.

I thought she was great. Are we going to spend the whole series hearing comments about her weight? Wouldn't the world be a boring place if every woman was the same size.

I know just what you mean.......I don't have a problem with her size, as some seem to...

Her attitude is overt though, all 'look at me'....a bit too determined to be seen and heard....

Maybe it's a product of stage school...who knows?

awh, i feel sorry for nat - she doesn't half get crucified ffs.

go Nat

Hahaha!
I was watching on a 42" screen and it just highlights EVERYTHING.

I hope the BBC have done a risk assessment for poor Vincent's back. Poor sod.

She's gutsy and doesn't take herself too seriously.

Loved Natalie and can't wait to see what her and the charming Vincent have in store for us.

I'm sorry but she is definitely not a size 14, not with those thighs. I'm a size 16 and she's heftier than me. The outfit did her no favours at all but she tried her best I suppose. Vincent will know she's not like Rachel but will no doubt work his magic on her (hopefully!)

awful person, awful dancer

LOL
