how adorable are they?? i just watched them on it takes two and they are sooooo cute...

Totally adorable, or adorkable as some would say. They're a great team and I hope they manage to get over what happened and come back even stronger.

Really adorable and she's getting better every week. Love watching the two of them together.

Yes adorable, plus Chelsee has a cracking pair of scammell wheel nuts!

I just saw the celeb reactions for week 5 and they are the last couple to be interviewed and they are adorable.

That was so sweet and goofy

Gorgeous couple.. Pasha is a FAB addition

It's amazing how they seem to "get" each other, considering they are from different worlds.

Very sweet, "hiya mate"

Very good indeed. They are a delight to watch. I am so pleased for Chelsea, never imagined she would be so good. Sweet girl. Pascha is a very good teacher.

*swoon*

Chelsee and Pasha are one of my two favourites and have been from the start. Chelsee just oozes charisma and fun and she never fails to make me smile. Wish I had her energy!

I felt sorry for her with her outfit malfunction but I was disappoiinted she kept up the sulking about it for so long.

Actually I honestly didn't think she was sulking, I think she was in a bit of a shock. Don't forget she might not have known how much was visible to a large audience, and with all the adrenaline. I think she was trying to keep back the tears.

I understand that but she should have just 'pulled her socks up' and thought, 'ah, well, life goes on'. She'd been reassured that nothing had been exposed! I just worry that, given the look on her face when everyone else was smiling and congratulating others, she sat there sulking still, she may lose votes over it. Remember Judy's catastrophe with her dress on some tv programme or other - and that was a full view! But credit to her, she carried on and, externally, appeared to shrug it off.

I just so want Chelsee in the final that I don't want her to slip up in a way that she could have hidden her 'horror.

Actually, I know where you are coming from. I'm surprising myself (I wanted her out in the first week), but one of the things I really like about her is her inability to pretend.

Let's hope there is no malfunction next week and that the audience will have forgotten everything about it.

Here's hoping

The Halloween makeup didn't help - anyone really, but it made her look more severe. I thought she rallied ok tho. If twitter will be kind to her and if the paper's let her forget about it, she should be able to refocus. The people around her will be a big part of it (the lovely P ), and she seems to have tons of energy too

Chelsee and Pasha certainly have some ardent fans. Perhaps she showed her age in her reaction to the costume drama because it's never thrown anyone else as much as it seemed to a) mess up the end of her routine (which is understandable) and b) really upset her (which frankly, is just the risk you take - malfunctions DO happen).

I do think that Bruce and Pasha initially seemed a bit dithery in dealing with her tears - no-one offered her a jacket which might have helped as a starter! Pasha may have twigged what the problem was (I certainly would hope so) but Brucie didn't appear to have a clue.

But by the time she got to Tess, I'd really thought she would have sorted hersefl out and stopped looking so miserable. Tess had reassured her quite specifically by that point.

Of course it affected her marks for the routine because she didn't finish it properly; maybe that's what she was more upset about. But given that she spends less time training than anyone else (again, understandable given her filming schedule) I actually found it quite endearing that she was so affected by the way things turned out. Sometimes I feel that she's hardly taking part in the show.

I really DO want her to have more training time - I think she could way overtake Jason if she had more time, just by looking at what she can do in the 10 hours or so that they usually seem to have, which has been incredible.

Maybe a bit of growing up happened over the weekend.

Judy Finnigan exposed her bra not her bare nipple, which is what Chelsee believed she'd done, big difference.

I think what Chelsee needs is some sleep.

Her reaction was very honest and in the moment, and for all she should have been reassured by what others said in terms of the wardrobe malfunction, she was by then probably more upset about it spoiling the dance a little, than by the potential "exposure" that she'd been assured didn't happen.

Clearly she finds it difficult to simply switch off emotions that have been switched on and replace them with others, as I'm sure would a lot of people. especially in such a high-pressure situation. However in fairness to her she did say on the results show "I feel a bit daft now" - as she'd had time to reflect and get some perspective.

Hardly sulking. She was feeling dejected as anyone would be. I've seen celebs and Pros. with that look after a so-so performance on a number of occasions. And you'd have to be a pretty fickle person to not vote for her on the strength of that mishap anyway. Most people would remember how good the dance was inspite of it and vote all the more for her. We did

Cheryl, I don't see why you're so hard on her and going on about her age. I can imagine most, if not all, of the women celebs and possibly the women Pros too getting upset if they thought they'd flashed the studio audience and the millions at home.

I didn't think Chelsee was sulking, I thought she was trying to process everything that had happened and was going on - almost a bit shocked. And would you have taken so few seconds to sort yourself if it had been you? I think Chelsee was upset about the wardrobe malfunction but perhaps equally upset that she'd let Pasha down. I think she zoned out and wasn't sulking for attention.

Just for clarification - I'm not an ardent fan by any means but I don't think she deserves such hard criticism

Chelsee did say later on, I think in the Results Show, that she felt like she had looked a bit silly for over-reacting (or words to that effect), so she realised for herself.

COMPLETELY agree Noone!



^This!

The thing I love about Chelsee is her honest persona - she comes across as just being herself and finding it hard to fake things.

I most certainly don't think she comes across either as not "taking part in the show". Rather, like you say above Sallyforth, I think her concentration is an issue and she is easily distracted, and when upset about something as she so clearly was with Saturday night's incident, she seems to find it hard to let go, and once she's out of that situation, she gets perspective again and is honest about it.

I'd rather have her like she is, and really genuine, than the fakeness of say, Dr Pamela of yesteryear!
