She was also rather lighter on her feet than I was expecting.

I'm wondering what people thought of Felicity tonight. I didn't enjoy the routine at all. I didn't feel any emotion in it. She's certainly flexible, but I actually found it quite difficult to watch, like I was cringeing.

Clearly I know nothing as she seemed to get very positive comments from the judges (I can't remember the score). I much preferred Jimi's and Gavin's too actually.

I must be complety wrapped up in myself becuase I read that quickly and wondered why I was being praised .! I wondered what I had done !! LOL LOL

i was just quite bored tbh, I thought she looked awful and i spent more time trying to work out how Vincent in white trousers and black shirt could possibly have been thought a good idea by wardrobe than I did actually enjoying their dance.

I thought she'd be my favourite before the series started, now I can't warm to her at all!

Did anyone else pick up when Bruno was talking to Felicity about that bad transition of hands in her Rumba she said:

"I got it wrong" and laughed and then went Oops and put her hand over her mouth and said "Shit" and then put her hand over her mouth again. I laughed!

I'm disappointed in Felicity as well. I thought she'd be more fun. Much as I love Vincent, I'm not loving this partnership.

Yes, I noticed that too! Not good.

I liked Felicity's routine, and I'm glad she's getting positive comments from the judges at last.

Chicken pox aside (as it were) Vinnie should have been paired with Tina - he'd have vivified her.

Great shame.

I recorded SCD tonight so maybe I'll watch it again and maybe I'll like it the second time around.

I think Felicity is progressing nicely. They're not all going to be brilliant from the off, but she wowed me tonight with some of those positions she got into.

I'd like to see more interplay between her and Vinnie on and off the dancefloor. He's trying really hard with her and she needs to give a little bit more back - bounce off him. We saw some banter on ITT last week, I want to see more.

For anyone who cannot wait until tomorrow night the result is on the spoiler thread

In the ITT interview, they were charming and fun, but she seems really quite stiff and just so different on the show, not really communicating with Tess, just saying "Oh yes" and laughing and being a bit snobby really. I love her to bits, and the dance, coming from someone who loves and has studied Rumba, was good, she needs to loosen up and have fun!

I would have put JImi above both Peter and Felicity tbh. I was a bit with the judges on that.

I haven't warmed to them much before but Scott and Natalie were fantastic last night, had me bouncing on the sofa! I agreed with Len that Matt's was a bit too manic, but I would have still given that a mark or two more aswell.

Unfortunately I missed Pamela but it sounds like I missed a treat.

Had to smile last night when Alesha said she thought that Matt was struggling to keep sometimes, and Craig said he had to disagree with her, and she then said she never said that, nice one Craig

I agree (just watched iplayer). All the dance said to me was 'Look how bendy she is for her age' not 'Look at the dance'. And the sideways splits just made me go ewwwwww.

I think Craig thought she said he was out of time, whereas what she said was that he looked like he was struggling to keep up with Aliona. He was in time, he just looked like he was on the edge of falling over, is what she meant. Craig was wrong.

Me too! It was not pretty.
