I dont know why but I find her dances bland, boring and unforgettable at times; is it just me? The judges love her though so no doubt she will make the final as I cant see them eliminating her if she does make bottom 2

Yes me too, though I find her dancing very forgettable. She is just too stiff,stilted and upright.

I really really like her, but I think she is a bit stiff esp in latin

I like Helen, she does need to become more 'loose' in her dancing, but that can only be down to years of ballet training where straight legs and backs are essential.
If she cannot overcome that, then she will not win because there are better dancers in this style than her. She deserves to stay a while though as she is a lot better than at least 5 others who are left.

Very impressed with her ballroom which for me deserves the judges' love.

Her Latin is a bit like an opera singer trying to sing soul music.

She reminds me of Elsa in Frozen, she should have done her in Movie Week

Love her ballroom but just needs to soften into her legs more.

Like her a lot.. Want to see more personality not this sickly sweet staring at Aljaz all the time... Especially on ITT.... Anyway she's still one of my favourites I just want her to be herself more!

I really like Helen. One of my favourites (of about 5 favourites I have)

Although that said, when I'm voting I will sometimes vote for 3 or 4 different celebs, but it never crosses my mind to vote for her. Don't know why..........

I think she's lovely and I adore her speaking voice. I just wish she could look slightly less terrified when she's dancing!

That's how I feel, I love Helen off the dancefloor but on it she makes me feel so uncomfortable when she dances, the grin of terror makes me scared for her

Helen is on of my two favs and imo she will only get better. Perhaps she should try and hog the Camera or come out with the sob stories that some of the others do to make themselves popular.

I think Helen is popular I also think that everyone of this years contestants are likeable which is a first for me, but I just do not like her dancing so far....she looks like she has a broom running through her.

I haven't really warmed to Helen yet, her quickstep was great and deserved her high scores, I thought her salsa was over scored last week, apart from a couple of great lifts I thought the rest was quite bland.

I thought she did really well last night. Previously I've felt she was a bit detached from the routine and just running through the steps until it was over, but she committed more last night. She's still far too stiff in the Latin though.

I think she needs to loosen up a bit and not take it so seriously, and get over her Darcy crush, but I like her.

I like her ballroom dances, though last night I wasn't as keen as I usually am, but her latin is not easy to watch. I cringe when she does that 'sexy grind/writhing move with a pouty face. Please don't do it Helen. Please.

I like her. I don't always find her comfortable to watch on the dance floor but she's one of the better dancers and seems like a lovely girl.

I didn't like their quickstep. No a patch on Aliaz and Abbie's. I think the judges want her in the final and that's why they're over markng her. I find her dances very stiff.

That's a fabulous analogy with which I wholeheartedly agree

As for Helen as a person, well |I don't know her. Her wide-eyed 'startled deer' act annoys me, as does Peter's 'oh so humble' demeanour. People are very fond of criticising Jay's 'little boy lost' appearance, but every celebrity employs a particular performance designed to appeal to the public and garner votes.

She reminds me a bit of Frankie...a perfectly nice person who was a talented dancer but I just don't get any sort of connection with.

I love Aljaz, but I don't know if his choreography is doing her any favours so far - I immediately forget her dances the second the music stops.
