jHopefully, he looked like he was not enjoying it. Kirsty and Iwan's dances lacked spirit.

Well he could have been 'talked' into it by the BBC, and surely he can be filled in for if he's still in the competition the weekend he has commitments. Every year people complain Strictly is full of celebrities who have nothing else to do; this one IS busy. It's just a shame for Ola her partner isn't around more and I'm sure he would like to train more. It could also be the case he was expecting an early exit and didn't think future commitments would clash anyway.

I liked him a bit more after yesterday's ITT. It will be interesting to see if he can put into practice what he said he was going to do with Ola and the 'surprise' that was mentioned works for them.

If not, he could be toast although luckily for him this week Carol might be even closer to the flame!

I think Iwan is trying too hard to 'become' a Strictly celeb.

He has come across better in other jobs he has done, so being himself would be a move in the right direction.
He is competitive, so if he has the opportunity, I think he will work hard. He looks like he needs to both work hard and for a long time though, and the training time is the issue.

Ola will get the best out of him - if she gets the chance.
