I thought Audrina was very under marked. And the length of the result show was ridiculous.

I think I'm the only one on here that was sad "The Hoff" only got one week; not enough time to showcase whether you can improve. (I'm a fan of his & no I'm not gay but I am a lady of a certain age lol).
I think he was kippered by the fact he went after Jennifer Grey tbh, we had all that sad stuff re Patick Swayze (even I cried a tear though I'm reknowned for being an Ice-Queen, I could relate to her grief). It seemd really odd to me as one minute we are silently sobbing, Jennifer is being maudlin, Brooke is asking her searching questions about how she felt, the dance was lyrical & soft & then you've got Derek being a prat in the background & she suddenly joins in . Surely they could have shown some respect? I know Derek is young but as a dancer he would have seen that movie as a kid I am certain & had some knowledge of how upsetting it would be for the many thousands of PS fans watching . FGS even his partner mentioned he was like Patrick 20+ yrs ago. I'm hoping it was bad editing as I don't want to go off Derek .
"The Hoff" had to follow that; he had no chance. I'm just pleased the producers weren't even more crass & put the tatoo'd lady in that spot. Imo Derek & Jennifer should have gone last if the producers were determined to showcase the sobbing etc.
I personally don't like Santana etc so practically did a FF through all of the results show. I'm not keen with it not all being on a Fri night back-to-back, so next week will watch them together. I record them on Sky+ anyway to FF all the ad breaks. I'm upset Watch does not have an HD channel, you can really tell the difference compared with SCD.

I think some Strictly fans tune in with not exactly open minds, yes it's showier and not strictly (see what I did there?) by the book but it is one hell of an entertainment show. I absolutely agree about the pro dances. What the DWTS pros make of Anton blundering around I wouldn't like to think I'm sure that a dancer of his ahem quality would never get anywhere near the show.

I love that there are only three judges it certainly keeps the pace of the show going and oh how nice not to endure Brucie's jokes, now if only they'd have a cull on Strictly, that'd be a few hundred grand saved.

I've seen a few comments about good old 'British' Strictly, it isn't Strictly' and I love the differences and will be trying to find the time to watch both.

Not sure who I like at the mo. this season, sorry to say that Jennifer Grey leaves me cold, Kyle seems fun but think that'll get a bit old sometime. Not bothered by Brandy but then again she is partnered with Maks and I still cringe when I think about the dance with the bed with Erin, eek. Looking forward to seeing how it will pan out.
