I suspect she would be brilliant with a contender - she really knows her stuff and how to simplify it.

Hear hear, well done Joanne.

Jo was really interesting tonight, I feel like I learned an awful lot in those 3 minutes.

Why is it Choreography Corner though? It more often than not tends to focus on technique.

Far better than Karen H, IMO. No gushing just states the facts. Hope she get a regular spot, she deserves it

She was great on ITT. Loved her demonstrations. The way she phrased some things (particularly re: resistance in the arms and being like a hinge in promenade position) reminded me of the way one of my ballroom dance teachers explains things which I really liked.

Anyone know what specific dance commitments karen has?

I was relieved to see the knockers were kept in check. I thought she did a good job on ITT.

I thought Joanne did choreography corner really well.

Not been a fan of Joanne, but I thought she was really good on Choreography Corner tonight. Really clear demonstrations. Watch out Karen!

Think she has judging commitments around this time of year.

Jo was a refreshing change, imparting loads of information in a short space of time.

Excellent job by Joanne Clifton filling in for Karen on ITT today.

Thanks! Judging by twitter she's off to china.

Not surprised, many coaches spend the equivalent of many months away in the Far East, coaching or judging - big business.

She's great, a shame she hasn't had a chance to shine on the actual main show.

Hopefully she will either this year in a dem / Pro dance or next year with a contender

We have had pro dancers get injured in the past, so they need spare male and female pros ready to step in.

Not bloomin' likely. Have you seen the pro dances lately? Generic wafting is the best you're likely to get.

it's just asinine alliteration, demenelope

What has she done to her lips? 😬

I thought that Joanne was great on it takes two tonight, really enjoyed her demo's, now feel as if I know a little bit more about dancing, have to say l found her more interesting than Karen who l also like, but given a choice I'd prefer Joanne.

Her lips looked the same to me?

Same here
I saw her and thought oh no 'ere we go Karen part 2 is on because they are both too OTT (they even look related!) But yeah she was enjoyable, I tend not to bother with ITT but i think they said she will there for a couple of weeks will catch it on iplayer

She's probably had fillers pumped in, it's a shame really as she hasn't really needed them.

Well done Joanne, she did an excellent job on ITT this evening. Even better than Karen I think. She was very informative and clear when she was explaining technique. If the Strictly producers have decided this is her role now then this is the sort of thing they should have her do, not the daft backstage stuff she's been stuck with so far.

No, she hasn't.
