I think Camilla is a loss to the show, not fussed about the others. Too early to tell with the new girls but I thought Len was pretty harsh on the little redhead over the 2 nights.
not impressed with Aliona's routine's for either dance with Rav not seen the others dont mind her dancing with Matt but she isnt a patch on Nicole dance wise

Sorry, you're quite right. I had completely forgotten hayley ever existed...which isn't nice, is it? Will try and edit.
To be honest, I found the New Girl's dance routine a bit (s)crappy. One - haven't got to grips with who's who - seemed rather off-balance occasionally. And zero chemistry between the couples, i thought. But it is early days.
Not impressed with Aliona, I found her too fussy, but she's dancing with Matt so 2nd and 3rd chances, though I still miss Nicole and Matt dancing. Looking forward to seeing what Katya's done with Phil Tuffnel next week, I enjoyed her dancing tonight, there's something about her, love her in Take The Lead. Phil Tuffnel?? Could have hoped for better for her.

haha, but hayley made such an impression on us all
Really miss the "old girls"!
Miss Arlene's commentary, and the style and elegance of Karen & Camilla'
In fact, best bit for me tonight was Tom & Camilla's dance.
Apart from Erin & Flavia, don't much enjoy watching the other girls - in fact, for first time I'm watching the guys dancing more than the girls.
Thought the routine introducing the new young girls was a bit naff. They just looked a little bit like lap dancers in search of a pole rather than professional ballroom dancers.

I have to say I wasn't blown away by the new girls, I thought their dance was a little bit OTT, but prehaps its just a case of trying too hard to impress ! I might get to like them as time goes on.
I wasn't terribly impressed by the 'here come the girls' routine. Not that I know more than diddley squat about the technicalities of dancing, but Katya in particular seemed to have some issues with timing?
Hated the new girls dance, but Aliona and Natalie have both looked to be very good dancers in other routines. Haven't seen enough of Katya.
Obviously not on a level with Karen or Nicole, but will still enjoy watching what they bring to the show. I really enjoyed Matt and Aliona in yesterday's pro dance, although it should be Nicole out there. Still think it was a travesty that Nicole was dropped.

Was she the one in the middle who didn't end on the beat ?
The music those poor girls had to dance to tonight was absolutely dire, that routine certainly didn't show them in a very good light! Too much of an attempt to make them look 'sexy', but they obviously are sexy - I would have preferred a more traditional ballroom number for them, which is what the show's supposed to be all about. I think they all seem quite engaging. I like Aliona.
ALiona is all look at me me me me when the camera is on her.
The other two also tend to look at the camera too much but early days.
I did notice that I do miss Camilla and Karen (who I hated!). They were elegant and showed off their celeb 90% of the time. They are a hugh loss but things do change. I still think that SCD is on a downward spiral.
