Jay has fantastic feel for music which no amount of training could teach him. And no amount of contemporary could get him to jive like that. He's just that good, and now I'm in the position of praying for OurLeona to get this right. And that feels so very strange!

Absolutely agree - don't care if it is week 1 or week 15 - if it is worth a 10 then give a 10.
Not only was Jay topping the leader board but Peter Andre showed tonight why he should not win - he really isn't that good. |

![]() Did anyone else get sick of hearing "you've worked so hard" or "we've worked so hard"? As if that somehow makes up for lack of technique/skill/whatever. And as for P.Duh - how can a singer have so little musicality? I don't understand it. Thank god for Claudia, and Jay, in tonight's show - they made it bearable. |

Aww, you mean Janette adopting the KevinCliftoncopyrighted 'Save Me' ooening (although sadly without the PE socks and plimsolls costuming) with Mr Punch being the ultimate dope on a rope didn't have you reaching for the 10 paddle?
![]() ![]() ![]() Nope, it didn't!

Does not matter how much people bleat on about him being 'trained'. He wasn't. That stage school stuff does not make you an exceptional dancer, unless you have an innate talent. And even then you'd have to go and get some proper training afterwards. There is NO substitute for sheer talent and ability. |

I wish Peter and Jeanette had done a Scarface theme. I badly want to have her say (in her genuine Cuban accent and with Sweet'n'Lo all over her face) "Say hello to my little friend", then pretend to mow P'duh down with a rhinestone encrusted M50. That would really have made my evening.

You don't dance like that without a real feel for the music and a natural talent . I'm actually getting some trust with Ourleona when it comes to choreography, that jive was so good and so full on. Really want to see their paso now
After that jive, I am tentatively prepared to trust OurLeona. |

PDuh and Jay - a veritable Grand Canyon between them.
PDuh's frightful, mangled stomping and quite ridiculous boots - and then Jay's super cool, slick, beautiful, sexy, laid-back jive. A world apart. |

It has been a very bad week for PDuh - first, his court case, then his dance - which showed very clearly he isn't the best dancer. I almost feel sorry for PA. Somehow I don't think the West End Musicals are going to beat a path to his door - think this is what he has been hoping for. Last edited by nyannie : 10-10-2015 at 21:28. Reason: left out a line |

I am imagining a massive backstage strop by Kellie a la Violet Elizabeth Bott."Shriek, I was the best, Shriek I had the highest score, Shriek, I had props Shriek and TTF playing with his light sabre Shriek, Shriek,Shriek"

I'm wondering whether PDuh is being lined up for the 'praised to the high heavens until the quarterfinals when the judges suddenly decide to judge him properly' storyline. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

He is a natural. No amount of stage school commercial dance can help you get the jive right. You have to have what it takes to 'get it'. He just has it.
Does not matter how much people bleat on about him being 'trained'. He wasn't. That stage school stuff does not make you an exceptional dancer, unless you have an innate talent. And even then you'd have to go and get some proper training afterwards. There is NO substitute for sheer talent and ability. I could not agree more. A friend of mine trained intensely for 6 years to play violin. She was astonished when she found out that just after one session my Sevillanas teacher told my mum that I needed to be fast tracked to flamenco second year because I was really "born with it". My friend was astonished because after 5 ½ years her teacher said she had made progress and she maybe could make it into a decent violin player. She could not understand that for the arts talent is innate and no amount of teaching can give you that special thing. (my mum did not listen and my dream of learning flamenco at a reasonable young age disappeared )

Anyone else feel like his comments didn't match his scores? The judges were all "your performance is amazing, what a showstopper" then gave him 7s (even though it barely warranted 5s) |

I hate jives. I hate them with passion. All of them.
Until JayPet and Ourleona go and do that. It's not only how he danced it is the little details and the "acting" in the dance that he performed so well. Amazing. (I still hate jives, just not this one) |
