Antons dancing is clearly hampered by the wieght of the HUGE chip on his shoulder.
Vile vile man ! They get on well, he gives her loads of praise (too much), they have done some lovely dances, apart from an unfortunate habit of saying the first thing that enters his mind, he seems really nice to me.

Not if they keep getting good marks and strong public support. Don't people understand that's what this programme's all about not the vested interest bile spewing out of tiny sections of these boards?!

I'm finding him a bit annoying this year. Plus, Laila must have felt very disappointed with the score after Anton made it out to be so wonderful.

I hated the music but I was entertained by the routine and voted for them. In my opinion the music chosen is really important - when it's grim and doesn't suit the dance my attention wanders.

It really underwhelmed me, her foxtort looked far more graceful than her VW, and Viennese Waltz is one of my favourite dances. She looked very shaky towards the end, and after everything Anton had said, I was disappointed. I did feel sorry for them both but Anton shouldn't have bigged it up.

He better watch out, if he continues grinning the way he does, he might find himself there (the dance-off). Some of the veiwers could find his crazy grin offensive.

I was a little underwhelmed by the judge's comments, they were like 'meh, thanks for turning up Laila! Next!!'
![]() They get more of a reaction when they stuff it up! Although Anton did seem very subdued didn't he? I reckon she'll give him hell tomorrow for over playing it. (or today...very dedicated pair) |

I felt sorry for both of them. They got good marks and it was a good dance but they hardly received any praise because all the judges were banging on about her latin.
It was as though they couldn't enjoy the moment, and were being reminded that they will be rubbish in their next dance. |

I felt sorry for him, thought it was a great VW that was undermarked.

Aw, Anton's cheesy grin makes my evening !
![]() Ouch, bit harsh. This is the man who went through 6 series of having not very good dancers and didn't complain. |

I thought it was very odd to that the judges barely commented on the VW and went on and on about latin

Or the idea that he "never complains". It's all he ever does. He basically laughed in Gillian's face when he found out there were partnered.

He hasn't been through 6 series with not very good dancers as you put it. He has had two good dancers in Lesley Garrett and Patsy Palmer- coming third and fifth and regularly scoring over 30. Can't stand this myth everyone keeps harping on about that Anton has never had a good dancer. It's just not true.

Yes apart from the "unfortunate" habit of making racist remarks to his partner he is very nice... Except for people who think that is not a very nice attribute.
Everyone involved has moved on - why can't you? The pair of them have some good training footage where Laila giggles a lot at his OTT predictions for their marks and from her ![]() They have a good rapport and their dance was lovely on Saturday night. Beautiful dress too - one of few this year

I felt it was a copycat of Brendan and Lisa's fab VW last year, only not as breathtaking or danced as well.
Nice try though Anton lol. The original and best here ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ht9zWK0VHSU

Their VW did look like it could be something special in training.
But I think Anton harping on about the elusive '10' put too much pressure on Laila and she seemed to tense up during the actual performance. She was so conscious of not making any mistakes, that she never got lost in the dance. The choice of music didn't help matters. They are still my favourite couple though ![]() One thing that did bug me was the judge's responses (their marks were fine). For the second week running, they had very little positive feedback for Laila. They almost forgot to congratulate her on a good effort with the VW and went back to slagging off her Latin! |

I quite liked their Samba to be honest and at least their jive had me in kinks...mainly for the look of bewildered horror on both of their faces!
![]() But the judges just didn't seem to bother even commenting this week It had more bounce than any of the Sambas that night and Laila didn't make any obvious mistakes. It was a fun routine, if a little cheesy! |
