It was a fantastic surprise, loved Jill on the series she and Darren won and I still love her now. She was terrific in the dancing she did last night, stood toe to toe with the pros and didn’t look one bit out of place imo.

She was with out a doubt the best celeb the show has ever seen imo. I only wish she could come back and do another series! At the very least, I really hope she can/ will do the Christmas special.

Agree! Just shows you how overmarked everyone is these days. Whenever they say who the highest scorers are of certain dances over all the Strictly series, it's surprising how many of them are from the last 2 series.

im glad that everyone saw last night's show, it showed jill is leaps and bounds better than alesha and if anything she should be the judge not alesha ( i do like alesha by the way ), jill is by far the best dancer to ever have been on this show

I'm glad someone mentioned that. It just goes to show how absurd it is when Tess now says.."that was the highest mark ever"..for any particular dance these days. Similarly, counting the number of 10's a contestant gets with the current scoring system is meaningless.

Jill, Mark and Alesha were in a different class.

Yes, the two ex-constestants they had on Saturday:

Jill - simply brilliant, matching the professionals.

Penny - pedestrian, riding it out on her husband's name. :yawn:
