Doesn't matter as long as the promise conspires to get Pammie into the final - does it?

Yes - Len said it. No wonder they've had an agenda with Pammie's marks.

Still - as you say - ready made hate object next year.

If I'm not mistaken, this is a near perfect QS.

My all time fav couple - Tom & Camilla.

Spot the difference!!!!!!

I loved Denise. All that feline grace & sinuosity. Is that a word?

Oh yes, that's a word - and a very apt one to describe Denise!

You speak the truth.
My theory for all the Snowden worship was that she hinted she could get Clooney to visit.

I loved Denise too!

She was like a panther.

I wish she'd won. I have so much respect for celebs from a non-dancing, non-performing background becoming so good.

But that Quickstep tonight was worth 8's at best! Awful!

Kara and Matt were head and shoulders above.

I really liked Pamela, then I was indifferent, now I want anybody except Pamela to win!”

That probably sums up how I feel about her too.....no way did her dance tonight merit full marks

Denise has always been my favourite ever Strictly celeb. Nobody has come close until Kara. Hopefully this time my fave will win

Brava to Pamela, but if I were paying to watch one of two shows, I would go to Kara and Artem. Every time.”

One of two dances this year that deserved a full house

Kara's AT was breathtaking as was Scott's Jive

Here is the contrivance, the gushing comments given by Bruno for Matt's Tango and then proceeds to give it a 9

There's a huge difference in Craig this year.
He was so obviously a big player in the AW thing and now this with Pamela.

Sad to say, I think he goes with the money and to hell with integrity.

Yup. And it's especially hypocritical seeing as he slated Gavin and Katya for putting some quickstep in their foxtrot last week

So my jaw dropped lower and lower as each judge enthused, and I just KNEW it would be a 40.

That is, without doubt, the most undeserved 40 in Strictly history, because I liked Lisa's dance and Matt di Angelo's waltz was okay by comparison.

Incidentally, I thought the choreography was good but was sure Len would have a go about the prolonged faffing about with canes at the start - he would have done so for any other couple.

As you might have guessed, I am a bit peeved...”

In total agreement regarding Len, I was sure he would mention ' the faffing about' at the begining, nigh on 20 seconds out of hold

As for Craig and his stupidity about the 'lift's' next week take the stairs to the cellar and bloody stay there. Unbelievable marking tonight

chuffin' ridiculous esp as he has been lauded for choreographing to her strengths by including tapping, well excuse me but isn't gymnastics Matts strength?

Erin was probably pre-occupied with her electronic box of circles and arrows in readiness for Wednesday's onslaught with Claudia

I'm sure Pamela went out of time with James during the pendulum. So dissapointed with tonight, you could just see how it was going...total fix.

I thought they were joking! She is much better in ballroom.

I noticed gapping too... I thought it would have been picked upon.

You heard it from Alesha tonight - Pamela is there to be an inspiration to all women,

If anything looked like a fix that did. They wanted Matt to tie with Scott.

for me she is an insiration to behave with some diginity when you get to 61

cant stand how she behaves simpering away and lusting after James.

Also showing those legs, more importantly thinking she deserves those 10's when others dont get them!

Irritating but not as bad as Snowdon as there aren't the dance offs to go with it.

The day I need Alesha Dixon to tell me what should inspire me will never dawn.

I don't think it would be an injustice if Pamela gets to the final.

She's not the best dancer in the show, but I think she is one of the best 3.

Her very emotional response to everything is a bit wearing admittedly. However, if Pamela is overstated at times, then she should be in tune with many digitalspy posters who can also be extremely emotional. In fact I would say that they are soultmates, although they might not care to think of themselves that way!
