Okay, I'm going to come clean. The burden of pretending otherwise is too great.

1. I loved Chris & Ola's Charleston and it's still one of my all-time favourite dances.

2. I enjoyed Fusion Week.

3. I don't care if any of the celebrities have previous dance training, I like a variety of standards including some decent ones.

4. I didn't mind Alesha as a judge.

Right, off to say ten Hail Darceys and reflect on the goodness of St Jill of Halfpenny's jive.

I like Giovanni, I think he's sweet & not the total sleazeball the producers are making him out to be.

I don't think Pasha, Aljaz or Tristsn are in any way fanciable or hot

I too don't care about previous dance experience

I preferred Matt d'Angelo to Alesha & thought Gethin was a dancing wardrobe in same vein as Darren Gough

I miss Brucie.

Tristan makes Jared look like Fred Astaire.

Lisa Riley isn't a bad tv host, isn't that annoying, and is transparently better than half the other options they've tried for It Takes Two over the years.

Feem Weeks are teh bestest and I really don't give a stuff about "traditional music"

Showdances should be banned they're an embarasssment.

Kevin's alright.

It doesn't really matter if Janette isn't a great teacher of all the 10 dances. Nor does it matter with Anton. They both have a role and they fill it better than some of the other pros fill theirs.

I think Tristan is a terrible dancer.

I'm not talking to you again either! My word!

I like Giovanni too - he's got a better personality than Vincenth.

I care more about personality than dance experience!

I really don't like Anton. He is not funny at all and comes across as very fake and insincere. I just don't understand why he has such a huge following.

Just popped in to say I have collected a pile of stones, some firewood and a nice sturdy stake for anyone heretic enough to confess to liking Doll-gate or Baco-foil.

Clearly they cannot be of this world.

I like him, but I don't rate his choreography and am dubious at his teaching ability.

I'll have a think of some more unpopular opinions I can add.

I thought Austin danced like a chest of drawers and went out, justly, on two crap dances.

I don't give a MONKEY'S about previous dance experience.

I think Artem was a pretentious sub Bolshoi, arrogant pain, with frightening teeth and a grim persona. Don't miss him at all.

Alijaz's tattoos are annoying.

Anton can dance Latin well enough. There's more pros now that can't dance ballroom in a much more serious way.

That'll do for now.

I adore Baco Foil, and plenty do.

Brendan is well past his use-by date.

Ditto Anton.

God I so agree with that.

I never dared admit it but it seemed to be one long ego trip for him. Every dance said look how clever/creative/innovative I am. I half expected a caption to pop up at the end of his dances with

I like Giovanni.
I don't see what's all the fuss about Helen.
Ola Jordan is one of my favorites pros
Len get away with being nasty a bit too much; especially compared to the other judges.
Kristina is very lovely and another one of my favorites pros as well.


Good thread op.

Jake's salsa wasn't good - or at least the bits he did in it.

I don't care in the slightest if someone is a ringer, as long as they're good (Denise van Outen's Latin springs to mind).

While Austinwozrobbed, it was due to a duff decision by Erin.

I agree with Bruno's comments more than any other judge and think he shows more genuine enthusiasm for dance too.

Kristina's one of the best choreographers at pitching a routine to a celeb's level (possibly only Natalie is better) in the show.

Hmm, need to think of more.

Halloween Week is brilliant.

Kara Tointon is massively overrated.

Tom Chambers is the joint worst winner.

I like the fact that she show has a bit more pizzaz than it used to,

Ricky Whittle is my favourite ever contestant!

I didn't like Artem's choreography or find him attractive at all, glad he is gone.

I like Anton and he can take over from Tess or any of the judges asap.

Craig Revel Horwood is my least favourite judge.

I was happy when Tom won!
