Not his biggest fan but I am so pleased for him to be at the top of the Leaderboard for once !!! Has that EVER happened ?

So chuffed for him .

Could he make his first Finale ?

I absolutely think AND hope so.

He deserves a bit of a break but I think they were overmarked tonight. Strong 7 as far as I could see.

Was really lovely. Anton made up for last week.

Though I'm sure he and Laila also topped the leaderboard with their Foxtrot?

As much as I dislike all the "Anton can't do latin" guff on here, he will really have to improve on last weeks effort if he wants to stay in until the end I think

Delighted for him!

YAY ! Delighted for him .
The dance was beautiful and the score well deserved .

We are thrilled for him, loved that dance.

I had tears in my cynical eyes after that Viennese Waltz.

'Twas beautiful.

anton hands were all over her..

Its good to see him at the top; but i'm sure he topped with Laila and also Patsy for one of their dances

GASP Are they having another strictly romance ?

I LOVED Anton and Katie's VW.

If I Can Dream is one of my favourite songs of all time and they danced beautifully to it. In my opinion, they absolutely deserved their spot at the top of the leaderboard. Well done to both.

Nonsense.

i thought for a split second when talking to claudia anton was feeling laila's breast.

Lol, ok. Come back when you aren't wearing your cloak and carrying a dagger.

Not such a surprise though was it?

It would be something of a miracle if one of these threads followed a latin dance.

Dont you mean Katie ?

I would just like to add that today is my 21st birthday and I have always been a fan of Anton's dancing so to see him top of the leaderboard and have his highest score since Lalia in 6 years on all nights tonight my 21st Birthday is a brilliant end to a brilliant day

I love the song, I loved the dance and I'm chuffed to bits for Anton and Katie.

Very well done.

I have always thought Anton is a bit of a pillock but I was genuinely pleased for him tonight. He looked thrilled to bits, superhappy.

Yes - he topped the first leaderboard with Lesley.

Anton been waiting for this moment for a very long time! Yayyyyyyyyy well deserved flower ! Xxx

So happy for Anton. I had to take to Facebook to say it also

It was the sort of dance that hooked this know nothing ignoramus when I first started watching Strictly back in Series 1.

When it's done properly, ballroom is truly sumptuous. Ta, Anton.
