looking forward to phil's FT, jade's tango

ricky's going to need to watch his pigeon toes in the jive but I'm sure it will be good”

It's not a foxtrot it's an American Smooth. Isn't it?

Their paso wasn't bad, the rumba isn't a fast Latin - I think she would struggle if it were Samba or CCC coming up - so the main risk factors are the choreography and Laila's true level of talent.

Compare Laila with Lesley Garrett, who came third in series one - admittedly a weaker year than 2006-2008 - and should have been in the final instead of the dreadful Chris Parker. Lesley could act, she'd been in enough real stage operas by 2004 to have learned that. I think she deserved that 31 score and Anton didn't let her down.

So it's really up to Anton to trust Laila with a similarly challenging routine, and up to Laila to deliver.”

The Paso was ok but the rumba involves timing and more intricate steps than a paso - let's hope Anton as the pro can keep in time - he was out of time in his cha

It's Cola and Natalie/Vincent on ITT, so we'll have those 2 confirmed (and probably Ali by process of elimination) tonight.

Brian is the only one who sticks to the rule of not telling anyone until its on ITT no one else is bothering at all.

Jade Tango

Ricky G VW

One suspects Ali will have a Samba as that wasn't in last week's show, and Chris is apparently doing a Paso.

Ali + a couple of stiff gins = a good samba.
Otherwise, she could be in trouble.

Jade Tango - 8
Natalie Foxtrot - 7
Phil American Smooth - 7 max.
Ricky G VW - 7 max.
Chris Paso - 7 (foresee major gurning)
Laila Rumba - 7 max. could be very embarrassing
Ricky W Jive - 8 just don't fancy him and Thingy jiving
Ali ?? Cha Cha or Samba - don't care

So that averages out at either 32s or 28s all round. Just not very inspiring. So with judges' niggles and all-round lunacy I think it'll range from 24 to 36.

Honestly, I am getting to be so not-much-bothered this series. It's a bit sad.

So am I EPION. Blackpools's atmosphere did lift it, well, that Lancashire audience could practically revive a dead parrot, but it's all very ho hum this year isn't it? Not much pizazz.

Whilst I think thats a possibility I also think they got it off wiki or even here so I am taking that one with a pinch of salt as I think she is more likely to have the Samba

He does so with 4 left to do the producers are clearly expecting one of those to be knocked out in the next couple of weeks as there are only 4 dances left.
