1. 'The scores are in'. If only that was all Claudia had to say.

2. Has Tess got a crush on Jay?

3. Not her idea obviously but Anita's tango was much too dark for me.

4. Anton appears to have taught Katie next to nothing in respect of Latin. The man is a complete joke, he may as well be about 76 compared with the younger dancers.

5. Jeremy is consistently rubbish. Isn't it about time the other three judges noticed?

As cheesy as he is, Petes crap gags needed a bit of reciprocation from Tess and Claud!! Roomba

Loved Anitas dress, make up, hair, partner

Jays legwork should have been commented on, it was good

As good as they are, i am never excited to see Kevin and Kellie”

I've noticed this in several of the excellent dresses this season.......Wonderbra padding sales must be well up!!

1. Some woeful choreography on show tonight. Anton still a major culprit in this regard when it comes to the latin dances.
2. Bruno was utterly doolally tonight .
3. Jay is technically excellent but the power of expression is lacking in his dancing. The emotiional connection and musicality is just not quite there yet imo. If he finds those things he will be unbelievable.
4. Kirsty answered her critics in the right way tonight.
A classy routine.
5. The VT gets more and more ridiculously annoying with every passing week.

Jay and Anita - undermarked again
Katie hampered by Anton's limited Latin choreography
Loved Anita's dress
Love Gleb's choreography
Bruno needs to be reined in - he is getting out of control.

1. Craziest judge marking yet.
2. Kellie's jive was a big disappointment.
3. Liked the arrangement of 'One Way or Another' by the orchestra and singers.
4. Some beautiful dresses.
5. Georgia and Giovanni my favourites. A sexy, exciting dance.

(A naughty 6. I'm developing a big crush for Gleb.)

1. Georgia was overmarked, through it all I was shocked at her legs and feet, yet Craig was the only one who dared mention it.

2.Same goes for Jamelia, well overmarked, her feet were never closing and the last half was really very bad. I have no idea what planet they are on if they thought that was a seven.
Throw Peter in there too for overmarked.

3. Kellie wasn't as good as I thought she would be and some of the steps were quite flat, she was also a little big headed to think Craig shouldn't of had a critisism of her.

4. Anita was great as a whole performance, I like the fact she becomes whatever dance she is performing and throws herself into it.

5. While all the contenders were quite good, nobody was a showstopper for me and grabbed the show as theirs.

I will throw in a bonus 6, Peter is not learning too much at all really, he is still dancing in the same MJ way he was before he started this, even in the rumba.

1) Peter's Rumba really was horrid - further adding to my theory that he is Jason Donovan back for a second go in disguise.

2) I didn't actually think Katie's Salsa was that bad. Certainly no worse than Ainsley or Carol.

3) Helen leaves me utterly cold. I think she's a thoroughly lovely dancer but it just doesn't gel with me. Same for Kellie.

4) Anita is fabulous and horribly under marked. #Anita4a9 campaign starts here.

5) Hope Jamelia can scrape through. It was looking to be a very, very good Foxtrot until she went wrong.

1. helen - fast becoming my favourite, such an interesting dancer, not perfect by any means but has an ability to inhabit her dances and a compelling quality

2. anita. fantastic dark modern tango.

3. anton. letting katie down again by playing her as a comedy act to cover his own insecurities/inabilities. she was absolutely fine in that salsa club.

4. bruno. getting a bit mean and a bit weird.

5. jay. i said ages ago he has the best arms of any male celeb on the show. glad darcy agrees starting to think he has the best foot extension/point too. if only they added up to more than the sum of the parts...

1) There are six 'talented' couples on the show - Anita/Gleb, Georgia/Giovanni, Helen/Aljaz, Jay/Aliona, Kellie/Kevin and Peter/Janette. Sticking three near the start and three at the end makes the middle of the show drag.

2) Saying that, I thought Helen was slightly overmarked tonight and Kellie was massively overmarked - she made mistakes but was not picked up on them.

3) In comparison I felt Jay was undermarked though I wish the Paso had proper Paso music.

4) The judges need to reel it in and ensure they're unbiased. They were far too harsh tonight on some and overly kind on others.

5) Glad Kirsty had a breakthrough dance; hopefully that will give her some confidence going forward.

Peter was over marked and I wish he'd stop grovelling to the judges. And why do they always take it easy on him.

I thought some of the judges remarks were bordering on cruel.

Kellie's great, but stop the screaming.

Loved Jay.

I know Jeremy's pretty awful, but he makes up for it with that smile. Hope he's not in the bottom two.

didnt like Ainsley's cooking themed jive, but adore his sense of rhythm
Jamelia and Kirsty were better than I expected
Loved the judges actually giving constructive comments, more please
Peter needs to work on his footwork
Jay and Aliona's paso was packed full of content

and thought costumes tonight were great

1. I didn't enjoy tonight's show as much as the last few weeks.
2. I've given up trying to understand the judges scoring.
3. Kirsty's best dance so far.
4. Loved Helen, Anita and Kellie tonight.
5. Fed up with Anita getting unmarked each week.

1) The least memorable and enjoyable show this series so far
2) Ridiculous "horse" joke by Claudia
3) Bruno - lost the plot completely tonight
4) Thought Kirsty's VW was overrated and Katie's Salsa underrated
5) Glad to see Peter in the first half tonight!

Jay was great tonight - he's back!
Anita was great - amazing wardrobe and makeup
Helen v good - a bit stiff still
Kirsty has improved a bit
Bruno has become very nasty

1. Although Len was probably a bit high on painkillers, it was Bruno who seemed to be the mad one. What has happened to him?

2. Katie's salsa was worse than Kirsty's previous salsa

3. I didn't think that anyone had a 'wow' dance this week unlike previous weeks

4. I don't see Katie winning this series of Strictly if she can't do latin

5. Peter didn't dance at the end for the first time

3:Anita looked amazing

1. Keep reading Anita was undermarked but I didn't see her Tango as a '9' dance. It was interesting and she danced it very well considering her lack of training, and I voted for it. But 32 points were adequate. She's not quite there yet.

2. I've really taken against Kellie and I didn't expect to, but the OTT performing and banshee-like shrieks are too much. My 8-year-old self (who was OBSESSED with T-bag) hates me.

3. Never want to see another good dancer squandered on Anton again. You can only be as good as your teacher and his fast Latin just doesn't cut it.

4. Very enjoyable Quickstep from Helen and Aljaz but hated the move at the end where he gave the floor a quick clean with her ball gown. Looked so inelegant.

5. There's an inevitability about this series. You can tell just from the audience reaction that Jay's got this. It's a similar response to what Louis, Chris and Tom Chambers used to get. The public are behind him all the way (not saying that's a bad thing, just an observation).

1.) Anita undermarked again, more deserved scores this week but I was expecting to see a couple of 9s

2.)First dance of Helen's i've really enjoyed and connected with, the moment where they went into hold was amazing

3.) I really felt for Jamelia, you can see how much it means to her and you could tell she just knows she is destined for the bottom 2

4.) I don't understand how Len thought Kirsty was in the same class as Jay, Helen, Anita etc.

5.) Natalie is the best female pro by far, really believes in the potential of every celeb she has. Great teacher, gets the best out of everyone. Take note Anton!!

Me too, well one of them.

For me it is his perfect imperfection. I adore him.

Ditto for number 4, it's awful

Wish they'd give Anita more credit for not having danced before - has she done gymnastics, I wonder?

Kellie was very good but seemed better in training - was she tired?

Jay was very good but can see Darcey's point that he needs to 'feel' the dance - but proves his nervousness isn't an act or he would be able to be expressive in the dance!

Don't think Bruno realised what he'd said, even when Tess apologised

Liked Helen and Aljaz - very graceful

Sneaky 6th
Think Len was a bit uncomfortable at times

Well, if she does end up in the bottom two, it gives her a chance to correct her mistakes. Unless she's up against one of the best dancers (unlikely), she should be saved.

I think she just has natural rhythm to be honest. There's a definite raw talent for dancing there.

1. I struggled to like Helen's quickstep. I have liked her up until now, but not tonight... perhaps my subconscious thinks she threw a hissy fit to swap dresses with Karen Clifton!

2. I enjoyed Katie's salsa. So, it lacked Salsa technique, but goodness me it was entertaining!

3. Bruno needs to wind his neck in. He's been the bitchy judge all this series so far!

4. Georgia & Giovanni who? Didn't know either of them before the show... add in disco - the dance/music genre I love to hate, and I get complete amnesia over their routines.

5. Where did the 90seconds of dancing go? Not 30 seconds of fulfilling whatever bullcrap 'story' the producers give the couples, then 60secs of dancing.
