I really felt the other dancers gave their all tonight but once again I failed to get any passion from Chelsee. I know a lot of people really rate her but for me she hasn't gone on a journey like the others.
Thought both Jason and Harry were both better than her tonight

Completely agree, sorry but i don't see her appeal.

I'd say it's arguable who was better out of Chelsee and Harry, depending on your POV. Too close to call.

Jason.. Loved his AT but that Samba was a hot mess. Did he slip on the stairs at the start? Maybe that affected to him.

IMO Chelsea for amazing but I feel Jason & Holly (who was undermarked IMO ) were that much better! Alex & James don't work for me and whilst there is chemistry of sorts between Chelsea & Pasha (who I think are amazing!) I feel there isn't enough (sorry Chelsea fans)
Dream final: Chelsea, Holly, Jason. Yeah I know that's not gonna happen but I can dream

I do love Chelsee, and hope she gets through to the final, but her Paso tonight reminded me of festival time in Michel Delving!

I liked Chelsea dances, I think she is the most natural dancer in the competition, but she has problems with control. It's because she's so good her control issues stand out more I think.

Her paso was great, really good, but I'm not so sure about those 10's. She was wobbly on many occasions – in both dances. She also doesn't seem to do intensity too well. She seems a bit self conscious about doing intensity.

She was good, probably the best on the night, but those tens... nah. But then, the scoring has been really over blown this series.

All I will say is that to each its own.You dont feel her passion but many do.

I felt passion for the first time tonight. Thought she rocked it and deserved her 40.

Sorry just saying what I see, I thought that both Harry and Jason were outstanding and even Holly's AT was superb. Chelsee is just ordinary. Perhaps that is the risk you take when you come to the competition as a dancer already.

I agree. She is a good dancer, in fact seems to become a different person when dancing, but I would prefer to see three others in the final personally.

Agree that Jason and Kristina were amazing! Chelsee and Pasha were for me too. I wasn't so moved by Harry but that's a temperament thing.

Jason arrived as a good dancer. So did Jill and Kara, I might add. Chelsee was far from ordinary in either of her dances, but hey, different strokes for different folks.

the paso was ok, i just feel she could give it so much more but when she is dancing she has this really unsure look on her face. She does the steps clean and precisely but she has once again let me down on the performance.

I liked Chelsee's Paso but did think it was lacking control in places and for me the dance didn't look smooth and flowing.

If Craig wants to hand out his first 10 to her fine, but then Harry also deserved a 10 for his VW from him. I've never heard such a picky reason not to give a 10!!

I thought that her Paso was very good but I did not see or feel any passion - her supposed dramatic face looked more like she was sucking a lemon to me.
She has turned out to be a very good dancer but to me her height and top heavy body means that I don't like to watch her dancing

She has been an actress since 2003 or since she was 14 years old so she has clearly gone down the stage school route. She seems more stage school than RADA to me. She would have been advised to take up dance in some form as they like to keep the options open for all the little wanabees.

Wow, someone's bitter.

Jill had a dance background and specialised in Jive. Kara had a ballet background. Regardless of that, Chelsee has natural dance talent. But hey, if appearing hopelessly bitter floats your boat, keep on going.

What a nasty thing to say!
I'm not bitter, I just don't think she is a talented as she is portrayed. I like to see people go on a journey and triumph. Hence I was delighted when Chris Hollins won and I loved Pamela last year because she worked so hard to improve. Just not seeing any of that in Chelsee.
Harry has probably been on the biggest journey this year (for me) but obviously if you are a massive Chelsee fan you won't be able to see that!
I actually think she is boring to watch because she has maintained the same standard from the beginning.

Harry: excellent dancer - but any joie de vivre or gay abandon was completely lacking in that Charleston. The VW on the other hand, which doesn't call much emotion suited him down to the ground.

I love Chelsee but, have in the past, questioned her ability to portray the character of the dance - but tonight she proved me so wrong; she delivered in spades and should have topped the leaderboard.
