Just a bit of fun to pass the time until 6.30pm!

1st- Louis & Flavia Jive (haven't been first yet and upbeat dance to kick off the show)

2nd Kimberley and Pasha American Smooth

3rd Lisa and Robin Salsa

4th Denise and James Tango

5th Dani and Vincent American Smooth

2nd dance:

Louis and Flavia Foxtrot

Kimberley and Pasha Charleston

Lisa and Robin American Smooth

Denise and James Rumba

Dani and Vincent Argentine Tango

Good choice for the first dance Taz, suspect it may be Lisa & the Salsa.

Last dance is likely to be the Charleston though.

Just realised Louis is the only male, so I think he will end up going 3rd between the women. So a good order would be:
Lisa
Kimberley
Louis
Denise
Dani

I may be wrong but I thought that Kimberley was doing the Charleston tonight.

Kimberley.
Lisa.
Dani.
Louis.
Denise.

She is.

Don't think so, what with Kimberley being last last week. A lot is being made of Dani doing the AT with Vincent, so agree that'll be last: I agree with the OP's line up- I don't think it'll matter that Louis is only boy, I think Jive is a natural dance to open the show with- they'll want to split up the American Smooths so, keeping Charleston and AT to the end, Lisa will be doing her Salsa first, and James always seems to do good Rumba's so they'll save that til the end for the end.

Saved me a typing - I agree with your order. Great mix.

Jive would be a great, lively way to open the programme, and I don't think Louis has been first on yet, although I could be wrong.

I would also love Dani to close the show, which she hasn't done yet.

Louis should be first (he hasn't been yet) Dani should be ladt

[LIST=1][*]Dani & Vincent[*]Lisa & Robin[*]Kimberley & Pasha[*]Louis & Flavia[*]Denise & James[/LIST]

Louis - jive
Kimberley - AS
Lisa - salsa
Denise - tango
Dani - AS
Louis - foxtrot
Kimberley - charleston
Lisa - AS
Denise - rumba
Dani - AT

Guess if it was me, I'd want to split the American smooths, the charleston and the jive, and the two tangos.
Louis should really open the show for once, Kimberley got the pimp slot last week so would put her second to build some momentum.
Lisa will probably provide the low notes for tonight, so best to put her between good dances. I think 3rd is also the most forgettable position, and would highlight her weaknesses compared to those before and after her.
Don't suppose it matters whether Dani or Denise is last, but it might tell us whether to expect a 40 for Denise.

I don't want to sound mean, but the 40 record for rumba is still open and if she gets it, it will be another 'f**k you judges' moment for me a la Jason and Pamela. I'll eat my words if she has actually managed the hip action, but it's doubtful isn't it?

ETA: just realised its the same order as the OP!

Do lines open after all the couples have done their first dance or after they've all done both dances?

I think they open after the first dance

I'd agree with that. Desperately hoping Lisa will be first, and I think they'll end with an American Smooth so it'll have to be Dani as Kimberley can't be last two weeks in a row. Dani's AT might be a good end dance too...

If they end with AS it could be Lisa. Have you seen that massive great "Lisa" sign in the reheasal pics?

The running order if they are using it as they often do will be
Good
Please vote this person out.
Dance off risk
Good/very good
Very Good/Good

Wtf! Dani on first again!

I've never seen anything so tacky in my life.



The running order was a complete joke. Dani and Lisa should have been swapped around.

Agreed. Louis yet to go first again.

Why is Dani always near the beginning of the show? Dani even admitted to Tess that going first makes her nervous.
