Loved Susanna but less of the fake tan.
Sophie was great. Great lines and she looks stunning.
Patricks dance was wonderfully choreographed. Not a ten.
Thought Mark was worse than Dave but rhumba is a rotten dance.
Fiona is making no impression on me. Let down by Anton.

1) Susanna and Kevin were fantastic tonight and their waltz was my favourite dance of the series so far

2) I think Ashley is slowly resembling the journey celeb, he has broke his 31 curse, got higher again and I think he will be in the final

3) Claudia is fantastic, not a huge fan of her but the show has a much better rhythm without Bruce

4) I thought Patrick was great, wish I found him more likeable though

5) I think Fiona will be in the bottom two tonight with Dave, hopefully Dave goes

1. I am gutted gutted gutted by Mark & Iveta they have lost their way & it makes me very sad.

2. Susanna was amazing & should have got at least one ten but the 'plan' was to keep Abbey at the top & Darcy forgot the rules when Patrick danced

3. Ashley would be so much better with another pro

4. Sophie was better but still not good enough

5. So bored by Ben now

1. The Charleston did not live up to it's hype sadly. Abbey's legs were all over the place.

2. Actually think that Ben's dance and especially Fiona's dance weren't that bad

3. Great comeback from Sophie after a few disappointing weeks.

4. Did not miss Natalie at all

5. Getting a bit tired of Ashley and his fainting.

1. Much more enjoyable show this week, thank gawd, but very sad news about Natalie. Hope she recovers in time for Blackpool, and dances their Jive.

2. Thought Bruno was going to give Ashley the kiss of life when he was sprawled out over the judge's desk.

3. I feel so sorry for Fiona, she has dancing abilities, but is with the wrong partner. I hope this is Anton's final series as a pro, he is just not up to it anymore. That music for a Paso was truly horrific, and the Orchestra's version of it sucked bigtime and ruined any hope of a decent Paso, though Fiona could've danced a good one given half a chance.

4. Wardrobe is not covering itself in glory this series - too hit and miss IMO - with some very unflattering costumes. They need to make alterations after a dress run if necessary, so have it a day earlier - unrealistic, I know. But it's a shame when wardrobe malfunctions affect a routine.

5. Patrick and Anya! WOW! Stunning choreography, IMO Anya's performance was the best of any pro so far this series, she was alight with charisma and energy and style. LOVED that AS, classic Hollywood choreo - Hermes Pan would've been proud of that one! Lovely comments from Natalie Lowe on Twitter too!

1. Tonight, for the first time, I felt Susanna and Kevin looked like serious contenders. I saw elegance and refinement in Susanna's dancing which I hadn't seen before. It was a wonderful Waltz, deserving of at least one 10.

2. Yes Sophie still has to bring more passion and energy to her dancing but her Argentine Tango was a marked improvement on recent weeks. She created some beautiful lines I thought. Fair comments, fair marks, a step in the right direction.

3. Abbey & Aljaz's Charleston didn't quite live up to the hype for me. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, thought it was well performed (in the main) but not without its wobbles. I wouldn't have had it joint 2nd with Susanna.

4. Nothing against Patrick, nice guy, want him to shine, but there was clearly a 'moment' in his American Smooth so what was Darcey thinking giving him a 10?

5. Forget John Barrowman, Anton, Vernon etc as possible Brucie replacements. I think Tess does a fine job slipping into his shoes. And Claudia does a better job slipping into Tess's.
Am with you all the way there Sid you wrote mine for me ta

Loved Susanna though. I want that frock!

1. Didn't enjoy Claudia tonight - touchy feely and cliches to greet each couple. Hated her describing Kevin as a bundle of loveliness and he reacted to it as it was off beam. She can stay on the results show. That's enough for me. (Nice hair and dress though).

2. Brendan is tiresome and his AT choreography was dreadful. He's put Sophie on a pedestal as Lisa Snowden mark 2 and needs to wake up to what he's shovelling before she's voted out because of him and his poor work. I'd be quite happy for him to be the 4th man removed from the series in a major spring clean.

3. I really missed Natalie and never thought I would. She must make it to the final. Her presence gives the show an edge.

4. Patrick is the man, as Craig rightly stated. Brilliant routine from Anya and they both threw themselves into it with gusto and joy. So glad he got to end the show as that dance deserved it.

5. Aah Pasha ... missing you already

1. Tess is so much better with Claudia & Claudia is such a breath if fresh air.
2. I thought I would like Patrick but haven't warms to him until this week. He deserves to at least make the semi finals.
3. Bored with Mark & was already bored with Dave.
4. Sophie needs to return to her original form. Have not enjoyed her performances for the past three weeks.
5. Natalie's input was missed. Hopefully she'll be better soon & dancing next week.

1. The quality of presentation improved tenfold on last week's laboured attempt.
2. Patrick was overmarked for a dance which admittedly was high on content... but also mistakes.
3. What on Earth was Iveta thinking with that choreography? Mark barely did anything.
4. I saw the passion from Sophie; I think I must have been the only one!
5. Get well soon, Natalie.

1) Tess and Claudia make a great presenting team and I enjoyed the show more because of it.

2) I'm finding Ben quite dull now, he's a very average dancer that has been led to believe otherwise by over marking. I'm also bored by his need to go and hug one of the judges every week, you've made your point Ben.

3) I really enjoyed Susannahs waltz, I think she could make it to the final, she can do both Latin and Ballroom and can perform each dance with the requisite character, she just needs to polish the technique.

4) I voted for both Ashley and Patrick, it might not be an all girl final after all, I thought it was unnecessary of Craig to say Patrick was the best male dancer.

5) Sophie seems very nice, but she did peak rather to early with the Charleston, I wish Brendan wouldn't attempt to do a speech every week about how wonderful she is. He's one of my favourite pro's but I find it quite annoying.

1. tess and claudia is a better presenting duo and much more comfortable with each other.

2. Alijaz ass is a weapon of mass distraction.

3. Natalie and her amazing hair was missing.

4.. Sophie is running out of steam

5. ben is overpraised. Is still prefer Mark to him dancingwise.

1) Patrick's dance not the best of the night- it was not worth a 10 and he's not the best male Celeb. Wrong on every single level!

2) Sophie's AT was very well stylised! I thought it was undermarked for technique, but she definitely needs to find a new facial expression!

3) Susanna's dance should have received much more than it did, especially compared to Patrick's!

4) Very much enjoyed Abbey's Charleston, but shouldn't have been 36 compared to Sophie's (even 35 would have been acceptable.)

5) I don't think Anton's choreography is the issue- more the fact that neither he nor Fiona seemed very stable this evening! I think a strong breeze would have had them both over!

1. Anton is letting Fiona down. She is a better dancer than his choreography is showing.

2. Ben, can you stop being so OTT with the judges please.

3. Dave's faces throughout his tango made me laugh!

4. Sophie is back! I actually couldn't take my eyes of her legs, they looked fabulous!

5. Missed Natalie, hope she is able to continue next week.
