it was a good rumba routine Alfonso did but the music (though I love the track) is no rumba far too fast seems they get poor music choices just to accomodate a current single or as in this case a guest artist

If both Frankie and Pixie receive decent music then I can see Frankie taking the cake very effortlessly to be quite honest. She's already shown that she can be moody and aggressive as proved by her EXCELLENT Paso! Somehow I can't really see Pixie bringing too much drama to the dance.

It would require her to stop inanely grinning for a minute and a half.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uz_cChdid08 They also shoehorned an actual Ella Henderson. :P
well that's me told!

Not very rumba-esque though. It'll probably pop up as Jake's paso or Mark's jive

Mark & Karen have the Jive (BBC Breakfast Interview) 😊
That should really suit Mark, and hopefully guarantee that he survives another week.

It depends, Frankie is such a dull and lifeless celeb that i'm currently passing her Paso off as a fluke of emotion.

Alison & Aljaz - Charleston (Jenny Thomas' facebook)
Caroline & Pasha - Samba (Caroline's twitter)
Frankie & Kevin - ?
Jake & Janette - ?
Judy & Anton - Foxtrot (Judy in Mirror article)
Mark & Karen - ?
Pixie & Trent - Tango (Trent's twitter)
Scott & Joanne - ?
Simon & Kristina - ?
Steve & Ola - Charleston (Steve's twitter)
Sunetra & Brendan - ?

I think Sunetra's tweet was just referring to doing better this week than with the salsa so wouldn't take it as confirmation of doing waltz.
I thought Sunetra was referring to having less faults with a waltz this week - apologies for any confusion, she must have been referring to their VW!

Sooo...

Alison & Aljaz - Charleston (Jenny Thomas' facebook)
Caroline & Pasha - Samba (Caroline's twitter)
Frankie & Kevin - Tango ( ITT)
Jake & Janette - Paso (ITT)
Judy & Anton - Foxtrot (Judy in Mirror article)
Mark & Karen - Jive (BBC Breakfast)
Pixie & Trent - Tango (Trent's twitter)
Scott & Joanne - ?
Simon & Kristina - ?
Steve & Ola - Charleston (Steve's twitter)
Sunetra & Brendan - Waltz

Looking forward enormously to Jake's paso, should be epic. And I like the idea of Pixie and Frankie facing off on the tango.
So, lucky ones:
Caroline & Pasha - Samba (Caroline's twitter)
Frankie & Kevin - Tango ( ITT)
Pixie & Trent - Tango (Trent's twitter)
Jake & Janette - Paso (ITT)


To be decided:
Scott & Joanne - ?
Simon & Kristina - ?
Steve & Ola - Charleston (Steve's twitter)
Alison & Aljaz - Charleston (Jenny Thomas' facebook)
Mark & Karen - Jive (BBC Breakfast)
Sunetra & Brendan -

Really unlucky:
Caroline & Pasha - Samba (Caroline's twitter) Samba for Halloween?

Whoever has danced the tango/paso in Halloween has done well overall, as well as Waltzes.
Jive can be a good dance for Mark, but Halloween? The same for Charleston, could go either way.

I love the way Judy has a sense of humour about herself -


judy murray @judmoo · 9h 9 hours ago

It's Hallowe'en week on Strictly so @TheAntonDuBeke is creating a spooky routine. He's ordered mist. "Neck high". He thinks he's funny. #SCD

You could look a couple of posts up the page. That may, you know, help.

Why would you deliberately miss it, when Mark is improving week by week?

There are so many others that I would be only be too happy to miss.

I remeber the last time Karen done the Jive with Nicky Byrne it was rubbish

Another classical piece that could make a good Hallowe'en waltz: Khachaturian's Masquerade

Scott & Joanne - Foxtrot (ITT)

Interesting that they have the same dance as Judy for the second week running...

Scott has the Foxtrot, and I presume it's to the theme from The Addams Family. God help us all.

This should be a less obvious disaster than the last few weeks. If the judges keep the comments bland and anodyne (as they showed signs of starting to do last week) we might have a chance of seeing him gone.
