Gets the boot?

She really is ghastly. 10 times worse than Alisha ever was, and I didn't think that was possible.

Don't think she is at all ghastly, in fact I think she's pretty fabulous. All she needs to do is loose the "Yah" at the end of every critique.

If she is the most irritating person you have "met", you have lived a charmed life

I really like her

She's great, just needs to lose the verbal tics yah. Oh and it's Alesha.

Love Darcey - a real asset to the judging team

She's fabulous. She'll sort out her own speech slip-ups when she watches herself back.

I know it's hard to handle that much class OP, but you might learn something.

She is a real breath of fresh air and she knows her stuff. Looks as though she is going to give honest comment and give out practical advice. There are those who can't stand anyone who doesn't have a "local accent"....shame for them.

There is no one on the show called Darcy .

I wonder if it was the nerves of live tele?
From what I remember from the Darcey Dances Hollywood programme last Christmas there was nothing in the way of the tics.

Yes the Yahs were annoying but nothing she can't sort. The advice she gave was excellent. Loved her.

she is awful! pretentious

At least she can speak proper

I think she's coming across just great. The panel and the whole show is far more at ease with itself and the show has a fluency it never had with Alesha around. Don't mind admitting I didn't want Darcey but on what I've seen so far she's doing fine.

I think she's great and has the experience to back up the critique.

I hated her the last time she was on, but she's much better this time, and she does give some decent advice as well. That 'yah' that she says all the time is unbearable, though.

Im warming to her very quickly.... her advice is brilliant!

There's nobody called Alisha either. The OP is clearly watching a parallel show called "Strictly Come Darcing".

She is lovely - and spot on with her advice - loved her always as a top class Ballerina

Strictly done Dancing...

Totally agree. She gave useful criticism and didn't shy when she needed to be a bit harsher.

The yahs last night were getting right on my nerves last night but her advice is spot on.

Haven't noticed them tonight so maybe she watched herself back

Is Darcey trying too hard to be nice?

If you want to criticise someone, for goodness sake learn who you are speaking about! It's Darcey Bussell. When you can't spell the name of the person you are talking about, how can anyone be sure you know much at all about the subject/person ???

I wouldn't be at all surprised if she had watched herself back, because there were far fewer yahs in this evening's show.

Her advice was very good, as it was last night.

She can stay!
