1. Why the hell choose 500 miles for a rhumba???
2. And why then penalise Dave for 'stomping' through it?
3. Loved Susannah's dress.
4. Claudia is so endearing.
5. Should Darcey have given a 10 when there was a botched lift? I say, yes!

1. Abbeys limbs seemed detached from her body a couple times during her charleston

2. What 'gapping' Craig?

3. Patrick looks good for 50

4. Susanna is a dream

5. Was that a condom on Claudias head

They seem to have it in for poor Fiona. Not the best dance of the night, but definitely not worthy of such harsh scores and criticisms. I thought it was her best dance.

I don't normally whine about the judges scores, but something is off with them tonight.

I love Mark, but if they are going to go for character dances, it needs to make sense/be appropriate for the dance.

Brendon needs to rewatch Sophie's dance before saying he thought it was worth more than 8's. Out of lifts and tricks, she is 'floppy' and lacking core, her free hand is awkward and she is not as sharp as she should be. Loved the routine though.

Liked Abbeys dance, but 9's when it has several wobbly moments and lacked a bit of oomph seems off.

1. Please Lord, time for Dave to go!
2. Patrick the best male? - Ashley's that for me.
3. Mark makes me smile.
4. If Sophie's still there next week, Brendan needs to get her acting lessons.
5. Calm down Darcy dear.

1. An improvement on last week for Sophie, which I'm glad about.
2. I really want Mark to do well but I didn't enjoy his Rumba.
3. Susanna was amazing and her Waltz was absolutely stunning, definitely my favourite dance of the night.
4. Surprised Patrick got a 10 with that messy ending, but the dance on a whole was good.
5. There's no hope for Dave, is there?

The show is sooooo much better without Bruce

Darcey is annoying

Sophie is on borrowed time

Patrick, Susanna and Ashley were my favourites

Mark is in danger

1. Was so looking forward to Natalie's Jive, I hope she recovers in time for Blackpool.

2. Taxi for Anton ... permanently

3. Is Darcy the new Len Goodman? Judging by the mark she gave to Patrick I think she is, he botched the ending therefore it CANNOT be a 10. ( A pity because if he had nailed the ending it thoroughly deserved 10's).

4. Please Sophie have some acting lessons and try to express your emotions more because you are a brilliant dancer.

5. Mark and Dave are now beginning to grate on my nerves both should be in the dance-off going on tonight's dances

And a sneaky six....

6. Please Please no dance-off for Abbey, for someone who had not danced until SCD she is amazing.

I've watched every main show and every episode of ITT since 2006 without using the fast forward button until this year....and it's not just the fault of Susanna Reid.

This is the weakest line up that I've ever watched. (2006 onwards)

The studio audience are doing my head in with the whooping and clapping during the routines. This is Strictly, not X-Factor.

Len is fortunate that he's not been decked by Craig.

Gutted that I didn't get to see the Jive by Natalie.

1. really enjoyed the evening without the old boy! No stupid jokes.
2. loved Ashley and Ola's quickstep.....boy it was quick!
3. Thought the judges were a bit mean not giving Susanna a 10.
4. Ben's jive was much better than I had anticipated.
5. Natalie.....running scared after seeing John Barrowman on last night's ITT!

1. Like the Tess/Claudia combo - got to say although Sir Brucey has been great in the past he isn't necessary to the show.

2. I just dont get Mark - he never moves more than 2 feet away from his original starting point and just seems to gurn. however wardrobe do seem to give him costumes designed to make him look silly! Ooh and is it mandatory that Iveta grab her ankle and lift her leg above her head in every routine??

3. Dave has started arguing with the judges - beginning of the end.

4. Susannah's tan has now moved up to warp factor 10 - love her dancing though

5. I think the judges were a bit mean on Fiona - she isn't going to win but she gives it a good shot and she can act (she was a Bond girl you know)

Missed seeing Natalie dance...
Patrick looks amazing for 50.
Please. Dave. Go. Now.
Don't get the SEB love... She's going backwards!
Was wondering if Abbeys wig had slipped or it was supposed to be wonky like that ?

1. I am on my own but I missed Bruce
2. Where was James?
3. A ten should be given for perfection
4. Hurting back ........now fainting?
5. Not sure what it is but something is missing this year

1. Too much of a drama made out of Natalie fainting, could have just said she was ill and left it at that.
2. Patrick best male tonight, Ashley best male overall
3. I liked Sophie's AT
4. Mark can actually dance a bit, why do they have to make him do all that stupid stuff?
5. Nice costumes tonight overall, particularly liked Susanna and Karen's dresses.

1. It's a good job Claudia was there this week,otherwise that would have been a really boring show.

2. Anton, forgetting the routine or does he want out?

3. Kept waiting for Ola to have a screaming fit in the Tesspit, "Iveta, the catsuit is mine"

4. Hints of desparation appearing in Brendan now

5. Really wanted to see Natalies jive.

1. After Anton forgot his steps, Fiona looked like she'd like to take him to a real bullring and leave him there....defenceless
2. Mark looked embarrassed, I felt embarrassed for him, but it's Iveta who should be embarrassed. Has she got bored with teaching?
3. Susanna reliably consistent, and has the advantage of dancing with the adorable Kevin
4. I should have found Dave, music and costumes annoying, but surprisingly didn't mind him.
5. Patrick and Anya demonstrated that old fashioned Hollywood is always a winner, especially when performed with enthusiasm and charm.

It was a tango, but I appreciate that it's not always easy to tell what Dave is meant to be doing.

1. Sophies stroppy-teenager face needs to go, rapid!
2. A fancy dress Rumba? No thanks.
3. Ola and Susannas dresses were divine. Nice to see some ballroom feathers
4. Dave cannot argue with Brunos critism when he has just walked his way through a Tango.
5. Was Abbeys wig crooked or was that intentional??

loved seb at

Emmm it was a tango....

1 boring
2 Sophie still just sleepwalks her way through it
3 why have a somersault in a jive?
4 Iveta's vile outfit
5 at least Ashley improved his neck/head

1. Dave did himself no favours answering back to the judges.
2. Mark ridiculed with that "concept", deserved better.
3. Thought Patrick was best male - tonight- was unfair on others to voice it as a given.
4. Show was a bit flat without Natalie..
5. Think Ben was wanting out of that embrace with Bruno more than Bruno .

1. Why the somersault? Had nothing to do with the rest of the jive!
2. Sophie at least needs to look as if she cares about what she's dancing
3. Dave - it's time mate, off you go!
4. Love the fact that Kevin and Susanna did ballroom dancing with no props, good choreography and proper dress and tails.
5. A 10 shouldn't be given when there is an obvious mistake.

1: No Bruce, bliss!
2:Craig is the best judge
3: Susanna had the best frock and dance
4: Tess needs a better bra
5: The orchestra are brill

1. Susanna should have got a 10.
2. Darcey should not have given a 10 when there was an obvious mistake (I do love Patrick though).
3. Sophie does not perform.
4. Len's marking is dodgy.
5. Ben is way overrated.

1. Didn't really like Sophie & Brendan's AT, thought it had echoes of the Bacofoil dance. Ugly lifts, no flicking leg movements.

2. Patrick & Anya's the dance of the night for me. Loved it. He is the best male dancer for sure. Great music, great choreo and well danced. Shame about the hick up at the end.

3. Sad that Mark & Iveta have lost their way, hope they survive another week to try to redeem themselves as I still like their partnership alot.

4. Needless to say didn't miss Bruce.

5. Hope Natalie will be able to dance again.
