4. It's now 9.45 pm and I'm still waiting for the salsa from Robbie.

5. A tango to a song advising us on how to have an orgasm.”

All of this ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ !
I think I've sneaked 10 thoughts for this week!!

1. This week showed up more than ever just how very mediocre the majority of celebs are this year.
2. The venue was too big, the stage too distracting and the sound too echo-y. Please no repeats of Wembley.
3. Wembley Arena, not Wembley Stadium. Not a football stadium. Why oh why were there so many football references?
4. "Full-on samba" - yes Len, it was a true salsamcha. As was Anita's. If you turned off the music, could you tell what they were?
5. The cannon. That supposed jive. Just stop already.

1 Harry's Salsa might have been ok he'd not been dancing to a jive song.
2 I don't even like it when they go to Blackpool, Wembley was 100 times worse.
3 I'm going to carry on whinging about recycling songs until they stop it.
4 Love Chelsee, and can't wait for her to stop working so she practice more.
5 Hope we get a wow dance before the series is over.

1. Chelsee was technically the best tonight - "I'm only a dot on the dance floor." Bless!

2. Poor Jason. I know he scored well in the end, but even so, I bet he'll replay that moment in his head for a long time.....

3. Harry looked practically edible as ever but the routine lacked any wow factor.

4. Russell....well, words fail me.

5. The venue overwhelmed the occasion, to be honest, and there wasn't a single dance I want to rewatch - v disappointing at this stage of the competition.

1. What was that?
2. Why Wembley & not Blackpool?
3. Can you hear me at the back, back, back?
4. Can anyone tell me why we are standing up and clapping again?
5. Why wasn't Russell shot by the cannon and not shot from the cannon?

1. I agree with all you say.
2. Can we have a proper quickstep from someone next week please ? Zoe and Ian could show you how to do it (or the Tango). In fact can we have a proper dance and not all this galloping around.?
3. Tonight was dire.
4. Please will Holly TRY to show some enthusiasm and also sack her dress designer.
5. Please can Strictly never EVER go to Wembley again.

1, Alex top of the leaderboard? Do me a favour. James looked like he was shoving around a wheelie bin.

2. How can you give 8s & 9s to a dancer who forgot a big bit of his routine?

3. Anita - just go. And take your revolting wardrobe [ and hair bows] with you.

4. Somebody has to help Tess dress.

5. Why can't these people just dance the proper steps for each dance and have done with it?

I did not watch tonight. Evidently Moira Ross had not reconnoitered Wembley size, acoustics and atmosphere before making another of her executive decisions.

1. Wembley OTT - did come off on TV
2. Dancers were lost in the big area.
3. Bruce! Awful!
4. Bruno getting ridiculous now.
5. Crowd booing - please stop it!

1. Awful venue - Wembley sucks.

2. Too much echo, made awful music choices worse.

3. Terrible dresses (Holly looked fat - omg ) .

4. Chelsee had a lovely dress, lovely smile and the best routine of the night.

5. Why was the opening number filmed from miles away - total pants.

6. Shambolic evening - sorry one extra.

1. wembly nooo
2. Wouldn't it be funny if Alex and James won after he has been told not needed for SCD tour?
3. Do you think Anita put a clause in her contract to play queen at least ten times this series?
4. Loved the start of Chelsea's dance
5. Hate to say it but think they need to make Craig head judge, never agreed with him before this year!

1. Alex, Jason and Russell were all overmarked by around 3-4 marks, the rest were about right
2. I don't think the pros had any say in the song choices tonight (espesh Harry's Salsa - I don't think Aliona would have chosen that)
3. Russell needs to go, but I think his time has come now and Holly will be there with him.
4. The space was just too big for them all
5. It's only NOW that Len decides to go on about gapping and lifts?!? Does he not remember what he said to Lulu just a few weeks ago.....

1. Alex on top of the leaderboard - who would have guessed?

2. Blue is definitely Pasha's colour

3. "I'm still standing" will always be Jill's dance

4. at the guy chasing Russell's helmet

5. Everything was overmarked, so no need to single out one dance to be angry about

1 - 5 - mediocre would be high praise for tonight's offering, no point wasting typing-time saying anything else

1. What was Alex doing at the top of the leaderboard?

2. Ola's choreography has been very shoddy this series. I'm sick of Robbie's knee slides.

3. The arena was simply too big and ate up the dancers. Their performances had no impact.

4. I never thought I'd be saying this but Anita was the best dressed.

5. There's an anti-climactic feel to this series because no one is really progressing much.

I like cold rice pudding...

1. Do the wardrobe department have something against Aussie's? Holly and Jason both had bad outfits.

2. Relax for a tango and C'mon Eileen for a Samba?! I don't think so...

3. Still waiting for a stand-out dance this series.

4. Only one ballroom dance (and I didn't recognise that as a QS initially). Why so much latin?

5. Wembley just didn't work. Hopefully a one off that won't be repeated.

Can't be bothered to do my own. So I'll just agree with Sid.

1. Enjoyed it as a one-off (and enjoyed the music, sorry ).
2. Was Anita drunk or just overwhelmed by the occasion?
3. First time I've heard "Relax" on the Beeb (probably shows my age)
4. Missed whatever it was Bruce told James off for.
5. Quite enjoyed the "You have been watching" silliness at the end - even more like a panto than usual.

1. I think I'm the only one who enjoyed them dancing at Wembley.
2. I'm really happy how much Alex has improved and I thought her tango was great.
3. Best dance of the night was Chelsee's, the opening was great.
4. I almost died when Bruce did his 'dancing' when he got jealous of Alex and James getting a bigger applause than he did.
5. I felt sorry for Jason messing up his steps.

Oh, and to future contestants: don't ever use Jill's Jive song!

1. The music was crap tonight.
2. Chelsee and Jason could of had 10s
3. Not enough dancing in Harry's routines
4. It's getting boring now Len having a pop at Aliona every week
5. Great show - dances underwhelming

1. At the end thought Tess looked like The Joker with those bright red lips
2. Holly's dress Yuk
3. Don't like Ola's catsuits
4. Chelsee to win
5. Felt sorry for Jason (poor guy can't win on here, thought his comments at the end were quite humble)

....
6. Sorry 1 more, nobody else has commented on Len's behaviour tonight. I laughed at him so desperately trying not to give dirty looks to Craig (me thinks he had his hand slapped last week )

1. I can't believe Harry and Aliona used Jill's jive song for their salsa.
2. Russell has to go, call that a jive?
3. None of the dances wowed me tonight.
4. I can't stand those VT's
5. I liked Brendan and Artem dancing together
