Let's hope so. I despair at them letting Katya go for this Aliona clone (actually technically worse, if last night was anything to go by). Still no nearer them finding a new male pro who is any great shakes at ballroom though.

Me too. I think I'm right in saying competition pros specialise in either Latin or Ballroom . So she's bound to be not as proficient in Ballroom . The hands in the pocket for Nicky was ugly and ungainly .

Of course that's all a load of suppositions and hopefully I'll warm to her in the next few weeks”

One of the best I've seen. SCD is lucky to get her. I have no idea why she agreed to do it though. DWTS is much better and much classier.

And she is so much better than the average Brit ballroom wannabe. How may Brits left amongst the pros? Exactly. Not many.

At last with Karen Hauer we'll have someone who knows what real salsa is and can handle a decent Argentine Tango. At long last! Plus she's stunning.

I bet she won't lose sleep over your not 'warming' to her

All very well but remember 95% of their job is teaching the celebs either Latin or Ballroom.

Plus, people are going to have to warm to her and her partner, if they are going to vote for them.
