OVerall, thought the standard was better. Overmarked, of course, but that goes without saying. Still not very engaged with any of them, and I think the series has been very lacklustre up to now, so it's nice to have actually enjoyed most of the dancing. The filler stuff is just grim grim grim. Almost unwatchable. My IQ drops about 10 points with each VT as my neurons kill themselves to stop the pain.

His voice. *sigh* It makes me go all funny. I've got a sinus thing that I'm afraid will last the whole bloody winter, so have been lazing on the sofa all day watching North and South and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.

And then Strictly. Which, I have to say, is rather a disappointment after my day's viewing.

You may have to get in line for that honor.

Bwahahahahaha at Camilla.
Her final 4 is Robbie, Jason, Chelsee and Harry.

He wore them in the pre-dance VT, and the crotch was just above his knees.
Not a good look

Ah, Howard Keel's baritone....now there's a voice.
There's a lot about RA that makes me go all funny.

Strictly is definitely showing signs of strain. All this proppage and filler.

I believe they call that look the carrot. Don't ask me why. Made his legs look like green grissini.

Really? REALLY?

Someone get her a new battery for her vibrating knickers. STAT.

How do you know when a drummer is at the door?



he knocks 3 times and comes in late !.......boom tish.

Howard Keel was great.

As for Mr. Amitage, I'm with you.

Mainly I think because she's envisaging a Robbie, Jason, Pasha, Harry and Camilla sandwich, however vomit-inducing the rest of us find the idea!

That woman makes my perving look restrained and sensible!

Me too. I do think a few of the dances were maybe overmarked, but only relative to other years. The theme wasn't overindulged like other weeks. Grayson wasn't as bad as I thought he would be, Robbie better than I anticipated, Chelsee's lots of fun, Holly in actual performance shocker - definitely the best week so far!

That lamp-post. Is someone on commission?

Tonight Camilla's vibrating knickers are sponsored by Robbie Savage.

I love Howard Keel even in Dallas, he was my older crush when I must have been in my late teens. He was such a gentleman and his speaking/singing voice could melt chocolate. Lovely man!

And I'm with you on both of those. Just want to add that Howard Keel had the looks to match the voice.

You know, all those chaps give me the impression of loving themselves just a little bit more than I find tolerable.

couldn't agree more

would add that I thought greyson though whilst not as bad as I thought it would be was also not really very good

He is middle of the leader board , lets hope for a shock boot

If only more shows had this added extra

I think someone placed a very large bet at the beginning of the series as to how many times it will appear, so the floor manager keeps sticking it there hoping no-one notices.

Either that or they have it on half-shares with X Factor as they were using it last week. It must have cost an absolute fortune, is it diamond encrusted?

I totally agree, I probably even preferred Robbie to Alex even if it wasn't quite the Blues Brothers Gavbot and Katya dance from last year.

Did you watch SYTYCD?

Ah yes. And the bod. He's amazing in Kiss Me Kate singing 'where is the live that late I led'. I mean, if ever a man can carry of black and white striped tights and Florentine slashed sleeves....

Eat your heart out Harry.

Having said that, good ole Errol Flynn and his green tights was on the other day. Classic.

How do you know when a lead singer's at the door?



He doesn't know when to come in and can't find the key.


How do you know when the drum riser's level?



Drool comes out of both sides of the drummer's mouth.

Oh if only these were jokes ....and not true

I think the lamp-post is deffo connected to one of those spread-betting scams.

As in - how many dances will feature a lamp-post this series?
0-5
6-10
11-15

Does anyone know the exact number?

Are you still referring to Artem's "lamppost" here?
