I know what you mean he comes across a bit like a bad loser at times.
However, I think they were disappointed on Saturday because apparently training and all rehearsals had gone well. I see nothing wrong with telling the judges they got steps wrong - others do it too. I don't believe in the adage that pros should be seen and not heard, as long as they remain respectful. |

I don't think he does at all, he is one of the few pros who does not want to go further in the competition than he and his partner should, the topic has come up several times over the years.

I get that if you get some steps wrong, it can throw you off but her whole routine was terrible, I can't believe that she was doing a decent jive in rehearsals, there was no technique at all on Saturday night!

I take it you've never had an occasion when your mind has gone completely blank then
I really do wonder what Brendan is teaching her. She can look wonderful with the right dance, so why is she so lame in Latin? |

I do wonder what the routine should have looked like according to Brendan. If only we could see that dress rehearsal. |

Looked like she did 99% of the steps correctly just not with any conviction or technique.

Many have said that there have always been question marks over his teaching ability.

I'm watching It Takes Two at the moment, the link I'm trying to find at the moment is the one to the poor swan they showed on Sky News today, although it is only fair to point out that Brenden was not involved in any way.
Tells me something. |

24 hours isn't enough time for someone who spends hours online to find a link to support a spurious claim?
Tells me something. I actually spend very little time on the internet with this current very slow connection I have. I'm still trying to work out why he thought their training dance was so good, to my albeit untrained eyes it didn't really look all that special, I don't know what you think about that. |

![]() I don't know if her style and ideas sort of 'fit' really. Certainly not in Latin where she doesn't seem to understand what its about at all. And that can't really be Brendan's fault, she's not stupid after all, and youtube is a click away. |

Terry sorry I have caused you an evening of thinking and pondering. Brenoon has a talented attractive partner but I sense she has her own mind and ideas and is not a malleable puppet. Perhaps that does not suit the maestro. Either that or she felt disgusted by being forced to dress up as a red beetle and that put her off.

I couldn't stand him in the early years. Then he partnered Jo Wood and revealed a different side to himself. He was encouraging and sweet and protective. I began to see Brendan in a new light. And when he got married he mellowed out even more. Now I think he's great!
Quote:
I thought Brendan was outstanding tonight - and I'm not a fan as such (I like him, but I'm not a 'fan').
Plus it's years now since I've thought his choreography was a factor in his celeb not producing a good performance. Quote:
Never liked him before the last two series, but now I think he's great. I do think he's calmed down on his smugness.

Wonderful choreography which was danced beautifully. Sophie is so elegant and I thought some of the judge's comments were a bit strong.
