I hate the place. London. I just felt so sorry for her. Glamorous job.
And then to have to go back to that....

That's how it came over to me, but that was yesterday, so let's just look forward to tonight's show.


I thought she was a bit embarrassed tbh and expected something a bit more 'lush', but I guess she doesn't have a lot of time when SCD is on.

So true ! As it`s only a base while she`s in the UK and considering the pro dancers aren`t on mega money I thought it was fine

Only just watched this ep on i-player. Loved the whole segment but this bit really made me LOL

I know what you mean about it being only a base whilst she's in the UK and I don't think there was anything wrong with the flat. I just thought it would be 'warmer' and sort of reflect Kristina's personality a bit more. This is her second year on the series, so it isn't that short term. There was a lovely throw on the sofa and I expected more of that kind of thing. I didn't expect the minimalist look.

Did seem a bit "empty" the house didn't it, so even with the best presenting skills in the world (which Kristina did lack quite considerably ) it would have been hard to fill such long segment.

Although in complete contrast Darren and Lilia's tour from last year is still one of my favourite ITT segments ever .

I think Ian and Brian's homes were included last year too IIFC.

Kristina's Crib, looked like a fairly decent rented service apartment (I've seen some REALLY crumby ones like you wouldn't believe) so it would be pretty hard for her to stamp her personality on it.

If I remember rightly from last year Brian's crib looked like a very similar deal.

I like the Through The Keyhole section sometimes.

Ian was great. So were Darren and Lilia. They are animated and amusing. You have to admit that Kristina doesn't seem the brightest firework in the display.

Brians was stylish and warm in comparison. Although hes moved from there now it was a gorgeous apartment.

That reminds me just how cute Brian is!

You mean you forgot

Tune in Saturdays at .....well whatever time they see fit each week

I agree, I think exactly the same about Kristina. Not the best ITT yesterday, rather a lot of padding. I must say that I find Claudia a little silly, and trying two hard to be funny sometimes.

He doesn't look quite as cute this year for some reason, can't quite put my finger on why though. Is it his eyebrows?

Sort of...


I'm not sure, but I feel the same. Maybe it was because he made no secret of the fact he was looking for a girlfriend! I think it is the hair - it looked better last year. But the eyes are still the same!

I think he looks more boyish in this clip and a bit more flirty than we've seen him with the viewers this year. I think he's concentrating his flirting elsewhere this year

Which is more than he does... please correct me if I'm wrong, but surely they can't have an average if they only perform the dance once?

I find the inclusion of "statistics" a bit of a bore, it hardly matters what the "average" is going back over several seasons. The marks for each individual performance is only relative to that particular programme in that particular year.
It's common sense that in every dance in every programme, marks for any couple after the first, will include an element of "adjustment" compared with the first performance.

The whole section is just a time filler.

Evenin' everyone!
