1) Worse set of VTs ever - a black sausage helping with the Waltz and using sweets on an adult as positive reinforcement?!
2) Katie looked absolutely amazing and it is an utter joy to see Anton's new lease of enthusiasm because of having someone good.
3) Kellie and Peter are being seriously favoured and overmarked - no way was Peter better than Katie.
4) Interesting that a few scored lower than last week but righly so - Iwan, Kirsty and Jamelia had smacked assed faces.
5) Iwan and Ola are both unbearable and here's hoping they are eliminated first - he is such a bad sport and that was terrible choreography.
Inseriousity.

1. Last week, I thought Ainsley is good in small doses but I'm now starting to really like him.
2. Craig's comments about Peter looking like he was jogging took the words right out of my mouth. I was into it then he started doing that.
3. Helen's dance was boring yet judges said it was fun and lively. Are we just watching different dances?
4. Iwan is annoying. I'm so pleased Carol isn't at the bottom of the leaderboard anymore.
5. Jay and Aliona look like they've been hit by the strictly curse! Joking joking but wow that chemistry was really good.

Appalling camera work as we have comer to expect. I am sure that the director has an aversion to feet. I'd love to see that idiot with the steadycam trip up and smash it. It would improve the show no end.

I loved Kirstie's vigour and attack, equally Anita's sexiness, Katie's style and Peter's class. I fear that Iwan is not long for this competition.

1. Iwan needs to go. But Jamelia and Kirsty really didn't look safe
2. Loved Anita and Katie. Both made me "oooh" throughout their dances
3. Anthony was just "ok" but thought he deserved more than 19
4. Claudia had me in stitches most of the night
5. Agreed with Len about a lot tonight, Mainly Peter looking like he was jogging and raising his knees too high, Georgia struggling with rise and fall (although both Peter and Georgia were still very good) and also Jamelia giving a good performance but being not too woo technically.

1- Loved Jay, I'm betting on him to win
2-Hope Iwan goes home
3- Jeremy, Ainsley, Daniel are just loving it and make me smile
4-Too many of the women are good (barring Kirsty and Carol)
5-Gleb is not a patch on Aljaz

1) Jay & Aliona the standout dance tonight.
2) Anton & Katie a close second. Cannot believe I'm saying that.
3) Janette looked absolutely stunning.
4) So did Aljaz
5) Kevin and Kellie looked ridiculous. What were wardrobe thinking?

1. The best I can ever remember from Len. Less contrived one-liners and some sensible criticism. Keep it up.

2. Two weeks running there has been a disparity between the comments and Katie's marks.

3. Am I the only one who doesn't understand the Jay love-in? He looked awkward in hold and hard to believe that he really was the best of the night.

4. Not a great reaction from Georgia to only getting 25. Made her look even more of a child.

5 Iwan wasn't very good but was he really four marks worse than Jeremy?

1) 28 Points for Anton, that's more than he has scored in the last 5 years.

2) Jay is a dark horse for the title, another accomplished dance, the best male celeb . Peter over marked again.

3) Kirsty Gallacher agast at her scores: Craig - 5 'WHAT', Darcy - 5 'WHAT', Len - 5 'WHAT', Bruno - 5 'WHAT', not the best way to endear yourself to the British Public.

4) Carol And Pasha - Pasha you needed to dump the umbrella it was SOOO distracting

5) Will be interesting to see how Anita copes with a slower dance

1. This show felt very surreal, I can't even put my finger on why. It just felt like an out of body experience for the first half!
2. Katie has some serious flexibility! She's a real shock for me.
3. Anita seems underrated to me (both by the judges and by some DS commentors. I think she has amazing rhythm and ease of movement for a beginning, and is going to go far.
4. Jamelia is giving me Michelle Williams vibes. I think there's so much expectation upon her to perform, having been a pop singer, that she goes for it too hard and technique and rhythm go out the window. That said, I do like her.
5. Carol made a really big improvement for me, and I found her foxtrot quite charming.

That's exactly what crossed my mind during her dance too

1. Loved Anita & Gleb's Charleston, great choreography and thought they were undermarked
2. Really liked Jay and Aliona's Waltz
3. Peter was great again this week
4. Even though I like him Anthony could be the one to first get eliminated
5. Really enjoyed Ainslie's Salsa

Peter overmarked - definitely judges' favourite

Jay surprisingly good as were Anita and Katie

Didn't care for Jamelia

Kirsty much better than last week

Really good costumes

She didn't do that for me, but then I don't know who Michelle Williams is.

Loving Katie and Anton
Ditto Ainsley
Terrible American Smooth choreography from Karen did Jeremy a disservice
Kirsty's reactions to her scores!
Stop wittering on when the judges are talking ,Tess

1. Iwan & Ola... what was that? I still can't believe they actually tried to pass off that thing as a cha-cha, it was appalling. Granted the concept and Iwan's lack of time didn't give much potential but Ola could surely have choreographed something with, well, dancing in it.

2. I want to support Kirsty but I really didn't enjoy her dance at all, Brendan is making it all about him again and that was just sleazy and a bit uncomfortable IMO. I wish he'd been with Jamelia and Kirsty had Tristan.

3. I love 'Pencil Full of Lead' LOADS but Anita's dance wasn't quite as good as I'd hoped.

4. Helen was my favourite last week and she still is now.

5. I miss Trent.

1- Jay : BEST dance of the night; A contender for the Final.
2- Peter was slightly overmarked imo; I really dont get the Helen love....I dont get it and the judges overpraise her a bit too much imo.
I also thought that Team GG and Gleb and Anita were undermarked
3-Yes Jamelia chacha wasn't that good but she was slightly underscored; Anthony as well
4-I wouldnt be surprised to see Jamelia or Antony in the B2 tonight.
5-Vts become worse and worse.

1. Claudia was on song, had me in stiches.
2. Katie is a class act, that tango was great although undermarked.
3. Peter was good but overmarked.
4. Kirsty's reaction to her score won't do her any favours.
5. Iwan coming across as desperate when saying he didn't want leave.

I think by Kirsty's reaction to the scores, Brendan isn't being honest with her about her ability. Maybe he thinks he's protecting her feelings, but it is very detrimental if you don't let your celeb know exactly what they're not doing well at.

She was on this show. Series 8.

1. There was far too much judge-bothering - they've got the whole dance floor, why do they have to use the judges' desk in their routines as well?
2. Iwan is seriously bad, but doesn't know it. Hope he gets voted off first.
3. I hate the cheesy song choices and am expecting Georgia to have to dance to Georgie Girl by the New Seekers at some point.
4. I don't have a clear favourite yet, though Jay, Anita and Helen are in the running.
5. Peter must be doing the tour this year, he's obviously a judges' favourite.

1. Katie and Anton dance of the night for me. So dramatic and a real joy to watch. Her and Anita are to me the strongest in the competition considering they haven't had any dance training.

2. Anita wowed again but was seriously underwhelmed by Glebs choreo. Felt like he was showing himself off too much at Anita's expense.

3. Daniel O'Donnell seriously gives me the shivers. He's utterly terrifying.

4. Really warming to Anthony, thought his dance was good and not worth the poor score the judges gave him.

5. Jamelia was a massive disappointment. I was really excited to see her excel in the Latin after a poor showing in the waltz last week. I had her pegged as being a real contender, looks like I was wrong. ADORE Tristan though.

1. Gggrrr - the props - ( and VTs ) and it can only get worse.

2. Kirsty and Helen, both seemed uncomfortable/wooden in some ways, although Kirsty will probably save herself with the lifts.

3. I was cringing when Iwan performed ( using that word very, very loosely indeed ). Surely time to exit.

4. Jay seems to have transformed from the unruly teenager look to a stuffy bank manager. Brilliant dancing though.

5. Loved Anita ( and Gleb ). I know she wasn't perfect , but so much energy, enthusiasm and sheer enjoyment - and I really enjoyed Gleb's interpretation of the Charleston, plus he seemed more relaxed and into the whole thing this week.

1) Iwan and Ola - what the HELL was that??!?! first couple out please!

2) Jay and Aliona - just beautiful

3) Daniel dances like a mannequin

4) sometimes you can have overly straight legs in a cha cha - Helen

5) Peter, over marked again

1) Katie is now my favourite, agree with a fellow poster in that the judges comments don't match her marks

2) It's amazing what traditional music can do to a dance, both Katie & Anton and Ainsley & Natalie benefited from that

3) Len's comments and marking tonight was very good

4) The first few performances were flat and Iwan, Kirsty & Jamelia are all in trouble

5) Well done Jay for giving the show the uplifting and brilliant performance you gave!

1. Love Ainsley's joie de vivre for the salsa and Strictly in general

2. I am clearly watching a different dance to everyone else with Jay (just didn't get it!)

3. Katie Dereham is so the all round package - well done Anton!

4. Think Kellie is great

5. And (sorry!!!!) Peter Andre to win!!!!
