I know it's only week 3, but, in terms of dancing and performance alone, who do you feel has shown the most improvement so far? Or who is perhaps, starting to show improvement. I don't mean, who is the best dancer, or who is your favourite, just who has made the most progress from the dancing side of things. I know it's hard to say right now as it's early days, but I'm interested in hearing everyone's thoughts. Thanks for the input!
Most improved so far
To be honest I don't think anyone has improved from their first week lol. That doesn't mean there aren't good dancers and good performers, just that I don't think there's been any change from their original standards yet. I think it usually takes at least a month and a half for them to get into the swing and start to really learn.
Until we have seen 2 ballrooms and 2 latins per couple it is hard to say if there is a proper improvement. I would agree though that Scott is being brought on a treat by Nat x
I also agree that Scott seems to have improved no end since his 1st preformance. Not noticed anyone else really improving but thought Patsy had lost some preformance this week
Before attempting to pass judgement on Patsy we need to see another Latin. Ballroom doesn't seem to be her thing so far.
Scott's performance skills have definitely improved, I think. He swaggered onto the floor in that last dance - was great.

I agree 100% with that comment!! She definitely appears to be more comfortable with her Latin but we can be more sure after another Latin dance...
Well, they have a month to perfect week 1 and 2 dances, but just 1 week to learn the week 3 routine. So I agree with others it is really too early to say in terms of dancing technique.
However, I agree with cantos that Felicity has shown improvement and I will also add Ann and Peter to that mix, but they are the three (remaining) contestants that had the most room for improvement at this early stage, so no real surprises there.
With regard performing however, Patsy had a self-made mountain to climb and it took a lot of guts to come back the way she did week 2. Even on Saturday when she missed the opening bars to a difficult routine, she kept the performance going despite being behind Robin (?) the whole way through. She has a lot of guts and I think once she absolutely nails a routine, she could be a joy to watch. In short, I think she has made the most progress in terms of mental breakthrough.

Its early to judge.
If from when they first signed on for the show, I suspect it might be Pamela, because she seems to learn so fast and as far as I know, the only proper dance training she had was about 50 years ago.

I think Felicity is the only one you could really say is improving up the board because Pam and Scott have been right up there from Day1 and the rest have gone up and down from dances 1-3!

Bit early to judge. Probably Felicity. Not in the same league, in terms of natural dancing ability, as Pamela, Kara, Scott and Matt but might get there. Before las Saturday I thought that the Rumba would suit her, because of her acting skills, and the Tango and Argentine Tango might also enable her to show her dancing ability off in the best way.
