That being the case, could still have made it look more like a Cha Cha. I found it a bit underwhelming.

Edit - I mean I found Peter a bit underwhelming, not just the lack of traditional Cha Cha moves.

Most enjoyable performances by far were Jeremy & Karen and Katie & Anton.

Last year - SImon was on last and was joint 3rd. Top of the leaderboard was Frankie who was on just before him. Series 10 was similar - Louis was on last and 3rd on the leaderboard, Lisa, who was on the middle of the night, came top.

I wonder if the judges are told to mark Peter highly to keep him in.

Sorry if this is a duplicate post, bloody iOS update is causing havoc with me using this site, keeps shutting down.

Anyway, are Jeremy Vine and Tim Vine related?

Carol and Iwan are probably most in danger going into Week 2. Iwan gave a Tango of Mark
Foster levels of blandness and Carol was out comedied by Jeremy.

Or perhaps they mark on dancing ability, He was the best dancer hence he is top of the leader board,

I think Kirsty is the most in danger.

He wasn't that good. Helen was better. And Katie also.

Why on earth would that be the case ?
He was marked highly because he was very good . Were he bad he'd get marked low, no conspiracy at all , just preferences of style and content is all .

It wasn't a cha cha though. It was more like a Michael Jackson impression.

Tess is driving me crazy, why does she have to repeat everything the others say?

Katie and Peter my faves so far. Jeremy's going to be hilarious in the latin dances.

Next week is going to be exhausting to watch! Maybe they should consider a Friday/Saturday spkut for the first 2 weeks.

I get the feeling that Gleb is a bit too worried about how he looks and has forgotten Anita. I think some of the other pros are better looking than him too.

I really like Helen's dancing - wish she wasn't with Alijaz, he always reminds me of Kryton with his stone face.

Fair point. I hope not though she was really nervous tonight and I think she could be really good if she can settle her nerves.

I think Iwan and Jamelia might be the first two in dance off.

Definitely. Plus, it's nice to have it on the Friday evening to start the weekend!
