Oksana leaving Natalie hanging for a high 5

Brendan booing Len and Bruno for giving Judge Rinder 6s

Natalie shouting... a certain expletive in excitement as she ran up the stairs, before very quickly remembering the whole live TV thing.

Nat & Greg hugging it out before their dance during the applause for Joanne and Ore's Tango

Haha I thought I was the only one who noticed that as I was surprised no-one had mentioned it in the discussion thread! She'd have been better not reacting when she did realise and just pretending nothing had happened!

Robert showing his affection for Lesley as shes being interviewed by Claudia. Seemed to have been quite touched by her dance, quite a few were.

I think it was after Ore & Joanne's Tango, the camera panned to the other celebrities showing a rather miserable faced Lesley slowly clapping away

Who was that dark-haired woman with the stripey pink dress in the background? I think she was there last night as well.

The most obvious one had to be the reaction of the other pro's when Claudia produced the toy for AJ, it was hilarious!

Probably Chloe, the "spare" newbie

I can't remember who's scoring (think it was Daisy), noticed Neil whisper to Brendan, who didn't appear to be smiling.

Just me who gets a bit of a vibe from Neil from what we've seen?

Oh okay, thanks. Didn't know there was a spare female dancer -- I thought the "spare" was the ginger-haired guy (sorry don't know his name).

That's Neil who is Katya Jones husband and dance partner.
Neil is doing a lot of choreography this year but AJ is so tiny that they had to bring his dance partner Chloe in to partner his in the pro dances as there is no one else that short?
Seems a bit odd to be just 'hanging around' though?

Talking of Will was he missing for a while, up with Claudia this evening? Only spotted him near the end shortly before he performed. Maybe caught up at rehearsals. Bless him - reminded me of him also being the very last to audition all those years ago. With his grandad's egg stained jumper on for luck - certainly didn't do him any harm!

I loved Claudia F's Blue shoes with red soles

were there a few missing? Ore and Joanne, Lesley J?

Bit late with this, it's nearly next week

After Joanne and Ore's dance during the 'conditions' Neil, Anastacia and Ed having a little chat and smile in the background.
Brendan bobbing Kevin on the head with Claude's silver wand, as Kevin and Gio creep underneath. Ore pretending to aim a kick Gio.
Anastasia - and a bit earlier someone unknown behind the banner - doing rabbit's ears behind Brendan.

Dave Arch's imperious finger behind Tess&Claud during their opening spiel, signalling the orchestra "wait- steady, steady....GO!"

Audience member (DS poster??) to the right of the judges in full retro 40s outfit <3

Huge image of a moon on the backdrop during Laura&Gio's waltz to If I Ain't Got You... the show's default romantic backdrop when there's no theme?

Len giving Bruno some sort of smint(/drug...) during Tess's intro for Louise&Kevin.

Rinder asking Oksana "Should I be holding your skirt?" as they go up to the Clauditorium.

Melvin dancing better to the busker in the Clauditorium than he ever did on the dancefloor :-/



Yep- just watched the show again on iPlayer.

Anastacia holding her tummy and going up the stairs with caution, again after her dance.

Is there tension between JR and Oksana? Didn't stand together in Clauditorium and in fact he in particular was noticeable by his absence when he is very often very much in the front shot. Oksana looked a little lost stood by herself.

Think I noticed something 'off' with Oksana also she seemed bemused whenever I noticed her in the background. JR is awestruck by her so if there is any tension I doubt it's from his end.

Daisy had lipstick on her teeth

I think JR had to go and get his Fred Flintstone wig fitted before his dance. Afterwards I imagine he was trying to avoid being in shot whilst wearing said wig! It was rather awful.

Is Chloe really that much shorter than Janette?

When Tess was announcing the next couples to dance I noticed Darcey kept looking over her right shoulder at someone in the audience and smiling . Must have had some friend or friends attending .

I think my favourite moment of the show was when there was just Leslie and Tameka left standing in the DO nominations. Tess announced Tameka's name, and poor Leslie didn't know whether that meant Tameka was in the DO, or that she'd survived and she was in the DO. You could see her asking Anton basically what the Hell happens now? Are we in or out? Aw, bless her.

The random woman who ran onto the dance floor to the group at the very end of the results show as everyone commiserated with Tameka. She had dark hair, was wearing jeans and a pink(?) top. Who was she and what was she doing?
