Jade & Ian 30 - 32 I liked it quite a lot
Ricky & Natalie 34 He will probably nail it
Phil & Katya 26 I liked it

So, no, we haven't.
Your opinion.... My opinion.... different.

No 'We' about it.

Can ask other posters opinion on the viennese waltzs shown tonight

How would you guess they would be marked

Natalie & Vincent
Jo & Brendan
Jade & Ian
Ricky & Natalie
Phil & Katya

So from\the training clips what would you guess their marks would be (combined judges mark)

And what would you estimate would Lailia & Anton's mark would be
Judging from the training footage, Ricky W will probably finish top of the heap :yawn: but Jade & Ian are very close behind on this one. I'm really looking to their VW.

Jo needs to toughen up a bit (and I say this as someone who loves her dearly). She looks so limp and floppy all the time.

I predict Laila & Anton will score a 5 and three 6's.

As a footballer Chris should be able to point his toes when kicking - hoping to see that for the first time on Saturday.

Craig doing the choreography - I've got a bruise now from banging my head on the table.

I thought Laila would be more suited to the sensual latin dances, but not to that extent. At least we've been warned.

Phil looked good but not great ( I dont think he enjoys the VW).

Ricky G is improving fast. He may even become a good dancer.

Ricky W's VW could be good, but maybe not elegant enough?

Jade is starting to look like she might be able to do it all (if they can stay in it).

Ali's jive looked a bit too smooth.

A tough one for Natalie, but she's giving it her best shot.

Missed the start, but if Joe's got a jive, he might not be last this week.
It might come across as though I'm picking on Craig tonight but I groaned when I heard he was contributing to the choreography (and that Flavia was encouraging him).

That's the sort of thing you let an experienced celeb who has proved themself through the competition do. Craig really needs to focus on getting the basics nailed before attempting to provide his own input.

So in tgerms of marks what would you guess each couple would get from the judges (Collective total)
Very close between Jade and Ricky, then Phil, with Natalie close behind_____________ then Jo.

Apparently when Laila asked what Anton thought they'd get for their Jive, he answered with "late teens". If it doesn't pick up before Sunday, that could be generous...

What about the other six couples doing the jive- what would you expect their judges total marks to be

This - absolutely. I've been liking Flavia so far this year, but that's a very odd and possibly unwise decision, I'd say...

Erm, I can never really tell from training footage, but I didn't think any of them looked brilliant. Could be wrong though.

.
I keep wondering if one of those corsets with the tight stays that you lace up would help .

I'm just trying to suss out what the leaderboard may look like after the judges have their say- that's why I am canvassing opinions as to what collective judges mark you would estimate for each couple

No 'We' about it.
I'm not sure yours is a very popular opinion. If Alesha can't dance fast Latin, then I guess no one else in that series could either.

Oh, I know. Sorry, I'm not particularly good at estimating scores/am very forgetful so I don't even think I could hazard a guess at the moment! Certainly Joe and Laila looked the worst of the jives anyway.

Yes, good idea!

IT would help stop her drooping.

At the moment, it looks like if Brendan let go, Jo would collapse on the floor in a heap.

Might you join Team Cola if Team Navi gets voted off first?



We all say that!



I did and Team Navi for Natalie and Vincent - little things please little minds!
I obviously have a little mind then, because I'm impressed

Bloody Norah (sorry to any Norahs)!
What DID Claudia have on? I missed the first 5. Was it a joke? A bet? A charity stunt? I know that woman has a sense of humour but still....
I've already commented...It was awful.

Wouldn't mind seeing it on my bedroom floor, but apart from that I hope I never see it again.

Maybe Clauds could use it for washing the car...just don't wear it again!

Not bad considering she was trying to dance on blocks of wood attached to sharpened chopsticks - how did she even get across to the dancing stage in those shoes - do they put her on a trolley?

Craig doing the choreography - I've got a bruise now from banging my head on the table.
snipped.
- Bold move or has she just given up the ghost?!

You ITT threaders have an impressive knowledge of all things Strictly so can anyone remind me which dance Alesha and Matt were in when they forgot the steps and both made it up and Alesha was almost crying at the judging as she thought she had messed it up? I think it was ballroom and ALesha had a white free on maybe. Doe sthis ring any bells - been bothering me after Alesha commented on keeping going to one of this year's celebs.

Also, statto man on tonight - anyone else think his laugh at the end was a bit woah slightly scary??

Knew this was the right place to ask! Thank you.

Edited after Sid posted - was definitely a ballroom - remember little but the frock! Maybe will be able to find it on youtube, but it wasn't clear at the time, only after when they mentioned it on ITT. Thanks for reply Sid
