I love Kristina, she has the ability to bring the very best out in her partners. She choreographs considered and wonderful routines. I think she is a great teacher and a lovely person. I do think she gets a raw deal from the press which is a terrible shame because she is one of the more talented pros on the show.
I would be truly sad if she did not return next year as I always root for her every year, she brings a style and grace to every routine she choreographs.

In their first dance the two couples scored the same, Simon's dance with mistakes as well, which would suggest he'd danced better than Pixie anyway and therefore when his dance off dance was flawless it wouldmake sense to keep him in.

In any case, it was a year ago and Simon didn't even win anyway so, get over it.
The fact simon and mark were going on tour I think buggered things up a tad. Len has come across like a man who has had his hands tied literally behind his back, you can tell he isn't happy being at SCD anymore, just by his facial expressions.

I liked Daniel and Kristina on the show and I am so sad to see them leave so early I did vote for Daniel this weekend, I feel that the Republic of Ireland playing in the Rugby World Cup Quarter Finals this weekend did not help him in terms of votes.
The two were on different days, can't see how it would have affected him

(And it's an all Ireland team btw)

I honestly think Daniel was perfect for her .
I don't doubt for a minute that her heart sank when she was first paired with him , but she actually needed someone like him at this point in her life . She's been getting horrible press and probably has bad expectations for any relationships, even Strictly ones . But Daniel is an absolute gent of the old school type . He didn't/won't ever disrespect her or sell negative stories on her and I think his gentleness and kindness broke down any barriers she had . He also genuinely tried his best and she knows that .
Yes I think they both gained hugely from their pairing and will now be pals for life .

I couldn't agree more. Very lovely post.

And thank you to the fms who spoke kindly about her. I'm pleasantly surprised because I didn't expect this.

Kristina is 38, Aliona is 31. As the body ages it gets more difficult to keep up with the younger generation (lifts, fast energetic dances).
I agree with that, and the same can be said for Natalie. They need to have the slightly older dancers as well as the younger dancers in order to get a balance of the ages with the contestants. It's not always the younger contestants who are the best dancers!

I am happy that Kristina and Daniel got paired together as I feel that they have both become good friends with each other.

I thought she was lovely the first series she was in then didn't like her now liked her again this series. Think its people are being hypocrites who slag her off for her love life but never say a word about Flavia who did the same thing.

Which married man did Flavia have an affair with?

I love Kristina as well her choreography is superb and she is a really beautiful dancer.
I hope she returns next year, her maturity is needed the younger Pros such as Kevin Joanne and Karen are not up to her or Natalies standard I fear.

That was a good read, I'm pleased she stuck up for Helen in particular - just because someone is a bit quieter than others in a group doesn't mean they're up themselves! I hope people listen to things like this.

nice thread - thankyou. Kristina is a great dancer and choreographer and always seems like a genuinely nice person. she's one of my favourite pros. i didn't get a chance to warm to daniel, but as ever she created a warm and productive working relationship with him. look forward to continuing to see kristina in the pro routines and hopefully back next year!

I thought I'd posted here but apparently not.

I like Kristina too. I think she is a good and patient teacher regardless the level of the celeb's capability and she also keeps true to the spirit of Strictly in trying to properly choreograph and teach according to the dance style she's been given (taking into account the limitations of the celeb).

Another thumbs up for Krystyna and Daniel, I am also sad to see them leave so early. I really liked his self deprecating and laid back personality and the obvious friendship between them.

I actually saw Krystyna and Robin dance in the Puttin' on the Ritz show and they were amazing and I believe that they both take the time after shows to speak to fans and sign etc. I spoke to Robin when I went but I think that Krystyna came out later. People who have actually met Krystyna have nothing but good things to say about her.

I think she has the star spot in the pro dance this week

I'm coming to this post a few days on and I totally agree with Heatherbell and all (well most) of the sentiments expressed in this thread.

I cried like an old eejet when Daniel gave his farewell speech, when he said "If YOU only knew how lovely this girl is"...Kristina's tears and his sincerity had me bawling!

I loved their pairing and I think their dancing partnership with ensure a life long friendship.

p.s.After Flavia, Kristina has always been my fave pro, hope the press now leave her alone.

Kristina always works hard regardless what celeb she is given. Last year on these forums there was a lot of negativity about her and TBH I don't understand why.

I adore Flavia, but in the interest of fairness, wasn't Jimmy Mistry still married when he partnered Flavia. I will stand corrected if challenged and apologise in advance.

Jimmy married Flavia in 2013. In 2010 Flavia and Jimmy where eliminated in week 6. Not sure whether he divorced his first wife early on later I don't know.
