Definitely agree they're getting out of hand. I didn't like the unicycle, but after seeing 'flying' Ann, I'll take anything other than that. Preferably accompnied with her leaving the show.

He's not the only pro who can jive!

Ok, I agree he's the best pro at jive they've ever had, but let's not insult the other pros by writing off the dance already just because he's not in it. I enjoy watching several other pros jive, and for all we know Matt might have choreographed it, and might even appear - I can dream, can't I?

I also thought that each DANCE was 1 minute 30 seconds, now it seems that half the dance can be in the air , on a bike or waving from a window. Also what happened to the no lift rule? Seems to have gone out of the window.
Is it the pros dance tomorrow or the so called pro dance troupe , you know the ones that are hardly seen dancing)

I would have been more impressed with the unicycle if Matt had stayed on it for the whole routine

I think it's great to have Ian back, albeit it in sad circumstances. But I'd rather watch Ian ballroom dancing, despite Latin being his specialism. I'm not filled with excitement at seeing him Jive. Now if he and Natalie were to do a Waltz, I'd be a very happy bunny.

The BBC seem to be taking all that is wrong with dancing with the stars and bringing it to Strictly to its detriment. All the gimmicks are supposed to help tell the story - they are just an irritation. Strangely Len is very quite about them - he normally hates all the 'faffing' about - the BBC must have told him not to complain about them.

IMO none of the other pros can touch Matt when it comes to Jive. I'm expecting it to be comparatively mediocre... and the pro Jive used to be the highlight of the series for me.

I'll be quite happy to be proven wrong of course.

I agree, but I'm not going to go into it expecting medicocrity, as many of the pros have competed well in jive in the past, and they can't all be Matt's standard, so it shouldn't be expected.

It's the competing pros (and if anyone wants to know how I know, Ola said in interviews yesterday she was doing a pro jive this weekend, and other competing pros were tweeting about going to the BBC early this morning way before the contestants).

I used to like Karen in the Jive

We also know the troupe aren't contracted to dance again until next weekend

No doubt they will do one minute of Foxtrot without special effects or similar, and then we won't see them again for another month.

I have agreed to disagree with you on many things! I will add the pro Jive to the list

I like watching the Jordans and Aliona jive, and I liked Lilia's jive a few series back as well. I can see that the Cutlers are brilliant at the jive, but the other Latin pros are very good as well, which is why i think this pro jive should still be very good.

They're doing 3 weekends in a row from next weekend

Yep, it's quite a long list now, isn't it? We do have the shared hatred of Ann's attempt at flying to agree on though

What time are the results usually, first time I've bothered waiting for them this season.

Really? Something to look forward to (for me) then!

Yeah I think we've pretty much got Ann's flying, and not liking the unleashed Tango... and that's it. And I think I disliked the Tango a lot more than you did! I will also add that I agree with what I think you were getting at when saying you liked Lilia's Jive a few series back. I look at the Jive Darren and Lilia did to Cliff Richard in series three, and it is so sharp and clean and fast. I don't think they had the same precision in the pro Jives in the last two series, although I do still love to watch them.

I was going to add that obviously we both like Strictly, and then I thought- actually, do I? I still watch it, but I'm stubborn like that!

Ballroom would be my preference too but I could watch Ian and Natalie all night doing anything

Yes, what I meant about Lilia was that I didn't think she was as good in the series 7 jives as she was in the likes of the Rebel Yell jive (which is still my favourite ever pro dance).

And I did quite severely dislike that tango, it was saved by James for me tbh and the 10 seconds of Flavia & Vincent actually doing Tango

Awh I'm sure deep down you still like something about Strictly, even if it's just the ranting about it on a Saturday night
