Leave Zoe alone. How do you know" she actually knows she's so good."?

She noticed her scores?

Perhaps she has trouble remembering how to count?

Right the way through, she has said that she finds it hard to learn the routines, and James has borne this out with his own observations. Most of the dances she has done so far have also suited her, whereas (at least, Zoe feels), the jive does not. On ITT last night she and James made it clear that earlier in the week she was struggling but she has now had a breakthrough and they're both a lot happier with it now. I fail to see what is wrong with any of this!

I think this is another case of bashing someone just because they are good at something, a perculiarly British disease. Perhaps the people that perpetrate this are a tad insecure themselves??? Oh, IMO of course!!

I always found it very difficult to learn new steps and be confident about them, I also have left and right issues. This is one of the reasons I like Zoe - I can relate to that. Once I learn them though, I'm not bad at all (though not, like wonderful or anything!).

I do think that we know that now though, and Zoe should be careful not to keep going on about it too much, as it can appear that she's just hamming. I don't think she is though.

Her jive looked good.

I dont think Zoe is being a drama queen in the slightest. Maybe she is just struggling a little with her confidence or perhaps she is just one of those people who genuinely just doesn't realise that actually, she's really very good.

I really, really like Zoe. In fact, she's probably my favourite contestant personality wise of the past few series. Good luck tonight Zoe and James! x

I don't think she's doing it in a "poor me" way, I think she is finding it all a big challenge and is laughing at how she is slow to catch on. She's definitely one of my favourites, we're seeing a nicer side to James and the dances they are producing are really enjoyable to watch.

My one criticism would be that maybe they are a bit too "sexy" in places but if that was the only criticism I received, I'd be happy!!!

Someone said that she may be dyslexic and that she does at the very least show signs of dyslexia. That in itself would make someone insecure. She seems rather serious, but then I expect most of us wouldn't find it a laughing matter either. Look at poor Craig!

Yeh I really wish she was with Matt as he's one of my favourite pro. I think they'd have made a great pairing.

But to be fair to James - he is a really good teacher & I try to put his lack of personal charm aside...

Urm excuse me? I was just expressing my opinion on what I thought of her! Nowt wrong with that. And if you read my OP properly you would have realized that I said that I thought she was and still is an amazing dancer and that it was her attitude that puts me off.

Look at Natalie for instance, she's not as great as Zoe but atleast she brings the fun and energy before and also on the dance floor. It would be nice if Zoe showed some enthusiasm.

Thankyou. Atleast someone's on my side..

She's always got a face like a bulldog licking p!ss of a thistle + she's with James - even if she wasn't with James I doubt I'd like her she comes across as a very cold person.

Don't like her

Zoe was over-marked and over-praised by the judges this week. I don't know why.

I know I'm not keen on this pair, I do try to be objective though.

But nothing much happened in Zoe's Jive. And what I did see wasn't any better than the Jives that got ripped to shreds.

She seems to be judge's pet like Lisa was last year.

I quite agree! Could not believe the judges comments; like they were watching a different jive. I think her being in the dance off bore out the fact many must have felt the same.
