I think Derek is clever at showcasing her abilities, and makes her look better than she is and disguising her weaknesses, but in some areas she has improved, don't know how much she is hampered by her injuries. Would have been interested how she was viewed by the judges, if she had had another pro dancer for a partner, would they have been more critical. Haven't seen the electrifying performances by William, feel like they are talking about someone else
