How did they get Natalie's hair so straight? I see three photos (so far), all look fab!

Note: Thanks for posting the link!

Light blue?! That's not a good look for a paso at all - Abbey looks like she should be doing a ballroom.

They're up quickly this week, all but Patrick's is up. What the hell are they making Aljaž wear? The other side better be more flattering .

Sophie looks great, but I have a feeling this will be the week the judges really go for her on performance leading to a comeback Tango or Paso next week.

Patrick's is up now - Anya's dress seems more suited for a Latin routine really.

Patrick must have improved a lot from the training footage we've seen if he's closing the show again

Didn't realise Patrick was missing when I first looked. He really has become the invisible man for me this year.

It took me ages as well. kept thinking that someone's missing but couldn't work out who.

Has the hairdresser phoned in sick? A lot of effort's been made with Natalie's hair, Ola's still got her rollers in, and the others seem to be be sporting their 'everyday ' looks. Abbey's might be a ponytail, or a bun?

It's not unusual for celebs or pros to do the dress run with their hair/makeup not yet finished.

With the exception of Aljaz's shirt, I think they all look pretty food. Abbey's dress is lovely but wouldn't be my choice for a Paso.

Natalie's is good, love the colour.

I wasn't sure Sohpie's dress would work but I think she looks stunning in that photo, very sylph like and ethereal.

Susanna's dress looks... um, short. Perhaps a distraction?

Ola looks nice, though the dress looks a bit weird at the front.

I like Natalie's dress, and I think it works with the lighting. Not sure about her hair though.

Iveta looks lovely.

Sophie's dress looks a lot nicer in this picture than it did on ITT... I like her hair too.

Kristina looks cute, this could be a good dance for her and Ben.

I actually like Abbey's dress. Is Aljaz borrowing Michael Vaughan's Samba shirt from last year?

Anya looks like she should be doing a Rumba.

I looked at the pictures first, came back to say how gorgeous the dresses were and then read this thread

I think Abbey's is OK for Paso. Strong colour and they have been given a modern look for a modern song.

Brendan has succeeded Jason as the sniffer of hair, but he and Sophie look good. As do Natalie and Artem.

The only one I am not sure of is Ola's. The upper body is lovely but someone described the skirt as looking 'unfinished' when we had wardrobe previewed earlier in the week and seeing the rehearsal picture I can see what they mean. Hope it looks better on the live show.

Disappears a bit (well, a lot) every week. Bet he is feeling great

Abbey and Aljaz's costumes music and everything seem to be going for a very different kind of paso and it's a dance that might not naturally suit her anyway. (She looked lovely in training but I mean the attack of the dance isn't obviously Abbey.) Could be a good idea to be very different after Susanna or could be a bit risky?

Anya looks like she was attacked with a hedge trimmer or how I rip up a tissue if I'm bored. I think their dance looked great in training but I don't like the look of her costume.

Natalie looks fantastic, Mark and Iveta look really sweet, and mostly people look good. I will admit that I had a slight sinking-heart feeling at Brendan in the rumba picture (just don't like the rumba) and at Ben's gym equipment, but hopefully they'll work on the night.

The pictures are up in the gallery now in this order:

Susanna - Patrick - Abbey - Ben - Sophie - Mark - Natalie - Ashley

I think this is more likely to be the running order (though Patrick was on second last week and Natalie second last)
