I dunno I think it was a week where Ricky's high standard dipped slightly just as other's seemed to raise it. I'm not sure we can read that much into it, if it happens again next week then maybe.
Natalie certainly wasnt safe last week with that car-crash Samba but was saved out of pity. The voting public are very fickle and changeable week by week...
I refer to series 5....
Alesha in the DO in the QF with Letitia and Matt was saved after forgetting 2 of his dances.
In the SF, Alesha was sent through to the final and Matt was in the DO with Gethin despite getting a perfect 40....
I hope and pray that the majority of the voting public have the decency to vote for the best dancers/dancing as the finals approach. I agree that Ricky W should have been in the DO yesterday and Natalie certainly did but next week Ricky could deliver a stand out performance as normal and go through to the semis.

I agree with what you are saying, but I think 'decency' is a bit strong a word!
Considering that Ricky got the loudest reception by the audience of any couple, I'd say the "public" don't give a stuff about the paperazzi.
Ricky was judged on his performance last night, we've now reached that stage of the competition, that's why Natalie went.

I beg to differ.
Cola got the biggest reception, there was an ovation. Even Bruce commented on it.

Feel feel to correct me if i'm wrong. But i've always felt the appluase when they come down the steps is canned. It has certainly never felt real to me anyway.
