How cute was Lilia in that rock 'n' roll routine? I want her to win next year, please let her get a good partner!

They pretty much dominated the first three series, as I think Monkseal pointed out... I think they've paid their dues by now though! If they do next series, they'd have to be near the front of the queue with Don, Dom, Richard, Jessie and Lynda!

I liked it too. A really lively and fun routine, and about time we saw a Darren and Lilia showdance this year.

I really didn't like it. I thought Lillia looked clunky and heavy footed. Those shoes were shocking.

I agree, as much as I like Lillia & Darren that dance was not great. Slow and clunky and didn't the lift go wrong in the middle too.

I am the biggest D&L lover ever and that dance did nothing for me whatsoever

I wait 9 weeks for a solo dance from them and I get that?

Totally and utterly disappointed

I wasn't too keen on this dance. I didn't like the music/singing at all, it seemed too slow for the dance so in turn the dance seemed a bit clunky.

Oh well each to their own, I personally loved it !

If I'm honest I didn't really like the pro rumba, felt a bit like a top of the pops number ! kept expecting Kate bush to run on and start singing wuthering heights

I didn't like the dance at all - now Ian and Natalie dancing to the Dame was something else.

I really liked the Pro Rumba too and have watched it back a couple of times already Your comments made me laugh though Josar. ...I actually really liked the lighting and thought it went really well with the dance. The dresses were gorgeous too.

I know what you mean josar although I kind of enjoyed the cheesiness - I loved the lighting at the beginning, it was ace!

Re: the part went wrong for Lilia and Darren, yes I did see that, it was an uncomfortable moment but I still loved the routine, they looked like two little dolls!

Thought it suited Darren more than Lilia but as ever from those two they put on a great performance.

I though the dance was great, but it was the wrong music!

Yes, agree wholeheartedly. If you are going to dance swing use swing music! I think more people would have appreciated if they understood what they were dancing

That skirt didn't suit her. It emphasised her short legs and made her look chubby.

This was how I felt too. I always love watching Darren and Lilia dance but really didn't like that last night. I think the music put me off, maybe with better music I'd have enjoyed it more.

Totally agreed they both really deserve decent partners next year. I love watching both of them dance and would like to see more of them.

Apologies but, I didn't think much of their dance but, I'm sure it was because of the music rather than the routine.

I completely agree - it was so bad it was jarring. I would rather watch it with the sound off.

I thought Lilia looked fab - just like a young girl dancing in the 50s!

I thought the outfit made her look glorious.
