Hope she's given the ok to keep dancing, her improvement from week to week 2 was insane, she has potential.

She tweeted that it was a mini stroke can't see her being back as she only got home from hospital yesterday agree that she improved so much and had potential but her health comes first so it is for the best she doesn't continue
![]() If she gets a clean bill of health in the coming months, I'm sure she'd be a good candidate for Season 22 (just avoid Salsa, Quickstep, and Foxtrot, which I think can be done, what with all the extra dances like Jazz and Contemporary, and group dances). |

I think their "rules" are very unfair especially as strictly has given people a week to recover before and why could they not film the dance where Kim is?

How did everyone think Alfonso Ribero did as a guest judge? I thought he did well and he was certainly better than Donny Osmond was on Strictly!

I thought he was terrible. Huge ego, huge voice, lots of nonsense and clichés.
The only watchable guest judge was Jessie J and that was purely because she was so terrible it was hilarious. As for Kim, the show has given a number of celebs the week off before when injured/ill (I recall Mellisa being one). I can only think "legal" doesn't wasn't to take the risk, given the severity of her problem. So talk of the "DWTS rules" was rather disingenuous. The theme was a bit naff this week imo. Too many shows which frankly the average viewer wouldn't have been alive for and too many tunes which were unremarkable or poor. That said, I did enjoy Alexa, Bindy and Nick a lot. Although it's unlikely, I really wish that Gary would go next. At times he can make you laugh but he's also really rude a lot too. Add in terrible dances, dishonest judge remarks, Anna looking in permanent pain and of course the elephant in the room - is is exploitation to be laughing at someone with brain injuries and I have had more than enough. |

They keep insisting that 'age doesn't matter' with Hayes, but then send him out to dance to Teenage Mutant Ninja ****ing Turtles...

Witney's engaged to a man who, if he changed his surname to hers when they married, would become Carson Carson.

Switch up partnerships:
Bindi & Val Paula & Mark Tamar & Louis Alexa & Derek Carlos & Lindsay Alex & Emma Hayes & Allison Andy & Sharna Nick & Witney Really wanted to see (arrogant) Val knocked down a peg or two and be partnered with Paula/Derek to get Tamar and produce her best routine to date, but at least it means Maks won't mark down Bindi as he did Amber last time he was guest judge. Really think Nick/Witney and Hayes/Allison will be good pairings as well

I see Val is having a Twitter fit about his favourite bloggers. Does anyone know what they did to offend this time (over and above the 'usual'
)?

Apparently they are spending stories that he was mean to Bindi and the producers called him a 'douchebag' think they are just annoyed that they have to vote for Val this week

I read that the producers have been making mischief about a possible romance. Well, it worked out okay with Kym and thingy... Mind you, as poor Alek seems to be having a rotten time outside of the show, he definitely deserves a nice cuddle from the lovely Emma! |

I liked some of the partnerships last night better than the actual pairings
I think last night proved that some of the couple were paired wrong from the beginning and showed that Allison and Witney are totally out of their depth as pros Witney was lucky to get Alfonso.

Anyone else think that Alexa & Derek's Tango was really quite overmarked? It looked like a 34/35 dance to my eye.

![]() I also didn't care for Maks passive aggressive dig at Bindy. He did something similar to Derek/Dereks partner the last time they had him on. He's as terrible as ever. And yes Allison and Witney are very poor. But they are not as poor as Keo who surely won't be back will he? Will he? |

It was good not amazing but good. I have seen lesser dances get a 40. What bothered me more were the scores for Nick and Andy. They were waaay too high imo but of course its all just your opinion.

I liked most of the dances last night except Hayes whatever that was and Nick's paso Nick looked more like a pro than Witney but it wasn't as good as it could have been with Sharna and I want him to do a proper ballroom dance without the pop/hip hop elements he has the ability he needs to be pushed out of his comfort zone. First time I thought Carlos was great love that pairing. Emma and Alek has chemistry would have like more rumba though. Bindi and Val were good but need another wow moment from her. Paula's jive was entertaining but a jive? Alexa and Derek were great would I have given a 40? No, have dances worse than that got a 40 before? Yes. It was Andy's best dance by far. Tamar is a great dancer but thought the routine was too hard and showcased Louis' talents as a choreographer. |

Mark treated Alexa very badly. I don't always like Derek, but his positivity was nice - I'm sure she wishes she was paired with him.
Tamar looked like she wanted to kill someone after her scores had been revealed! |

I think I've lost all interest in this series which is a shame
I'm still supporting Tamar to win though!

Good lord. This week was probably the lowest point of 21 seasons of Dancing with the Stars.
