1) The show is becoming more about the costumes and props etc than dancing.
![]() 2) I loved the costumes despite the above. 3) Anita was undermarked and Craig giving her a 6 and Jamelia a 6 is utter garbage. ![]() 4) There should have been at least one ten tonight, probably for Georgia and/or Jay. 5) Carol vs Kirsty for the boot for me based on tonight. |

1. Jay - fabulous and cheeky at the end (and always sexy)
2. Peter - so humble yet so cheesy 3. Kirsty - mardy always mardy (those not from Nottingham may need to look this up) 4. Think Darcy ought to change her look - black really suits her 5. Halloween week - put IT out of its misery |

Does anyone think the producers will take on board what we say? I don't.
![]() However, I hope the show still stays with us for quite a while longer. |

1. My ears are bleeding - just come off the phone to my therapist. I'll never get that version of Bad Romance out of my mind.
2. Whoever is choreographing the pro dances this year needs a good talking to or the pros need more rehearsal time. Constant gurning into the camera isn't dancing. 3, Bruno was spot on about Peter Andre. He's never more than a beat away from a moonwalk. 4. Bad Ann, Judy and Nancy put an Halloween curse on Katie and made her channel them ![]() 5. The judges and the studio audience seem to be watching different dances based on their responses to them. |

1. Another train crash of a theme night. Horrific for all the wrong reasons.
2. The order needs to be sorted out. It seems the best dancers always get the end spots. The first few dances were dreadful almost like the first week. 3. Katie's confidence is in tatters. She looks as if she has given up and wants to go home. 4. Why did Craig give Jeremy a four? It was even worse than some of his other efforts. Looking awkward is not a talent. 5. Only thing I enjoyed was Jay's music. Not heard it before. |

1. Words cannot express how much I HATE Halloween week.
2. Who do we have to pay to get rid of Halloween week? 3. I felt most couples were hampered in some way by their music and/or costumes. 4. Anita has been the most consistent for me. 5. Tess needs a new gag writer. |

1. I am so over Halloween, I wish we could have a different theme next year for the theme week.
2. The costumes compromised some key elements of some of the dances. 3. The VTs were cringey, I wish they would show us training, with perhaps graphics or Ian Waite telling us what the dance should look like. The only bit of all the VTs I liked was the 3 "ghosts" in Anton's house. 4. Peter is starting to look like he is doing the same dance every week. 5. I loved Jeremy, A sneaky 6. The best bit about tonight's show was the Twitter spat between James Jordan and Danny Dyer. ![]() BIB ooh not seen that, off to have a peak - thanks |

1. Quite a poor set of dances all round this evening.
2. Anita and kellie were desperately undermarked. Kellie's already my favourite and I'm loving Anita more with every passing weekend. 3. Oh dear at Carol. Even Darcey and Len cracked out their 4 paddles. 4. Oh dear at Kirsty. I had to laugh at Bruno declaring at 'a mess'. 5. Claudia kills me every single time. |

It was one of those shows where I could feel my brain being dumbed down and all I could think about was the glory years of SCD which had sincerity and formality.

Just caught up with James Jordan's twitter ... do we believe Pleb was the result of predictive text?

1. Too much emphasis on the make up and costumes ( which I generally enjoy ) distracted and sometimes physically hindered the dances - and that's even before the music choices are considered !
2. Can someone ask the lighting techs to tone it down a bit 3. The judges ( bar Darcey ) seemed a bit flat tonight, not quite grumpy but a bit '' middle of the competition'' fatigue 4. Too many silly VTs, but really probably not worth mentioning, TPTB obviously think they are hilarious and guaranteed to entertain 5. Loved Anita and Gleb as always |

1. I loathe Halloween week.
2. Halloween week always fails. 3. The Halloween theme compromises the dances in virtually every way. 4. The emphasis seems to be far too much on Halloween costume and make up rather than the dancing. 5. Dammit I hate Halloween. |

1) Halloween week sucks. Expecting amateurs to learn a new dance, adopt extreme characterisation and wear cumbersome costumes is ridiculous.
2) Bruno really is horrible this series. I don't pay any attention to his comments anymore 3) Anita has seemingly worked on her spins after Craig's comment re spotting. They look lovely and clean. 4) Despite his inability to dance, I'm rooting for Jeremy more now, having seen his response to a detractor. 5) Georgia finally had some recognition for her incredible talent! |

Anyway funniest bit was James calling Gleb Pleb and claiming it was predictive text even though he repeated the mistake. James is a bit jelly although he did criticise Craig's score of 6 for Anita. |

1. I’ve never really been one of the ‘Anita is so undermarked’ crew, but 29???? Also Katie’s dance was disappointing and barely on half-power, but 21????
2. I used to find Georgia and Giovanni a bit irritating, but over the last three dances they’ve really climbed a lot in my estimations. 3. Peter, sometimes - verbally - less is more. 4. Carol was royally stitched up with that song. I don’t think she was any worse than usual at all. Can we all just collaborate on a list of semi-appropriate, recognisable songs for each dance with opportunities for some mid-level theming and send it to the BBC? 5. I want to turn Anton’s Ghosts of Girlfriends Past into a screenplay, AND we got a double dose of Pasha's beautiful terrible VT acting. So fairly good week for comedy VTs, if nothing else. Most dismal Halloween Week ever? (I think we got two decent dances out of the whole thing) 6. BONUS: Kellie - ‘I can’t find the camera.’ Funniest thing anyone said all show. |

1) Anita was undermarked again (seriously, what do the judges have against her? 6 from Craig?!)
2) Georgia pleasantly surprised me, they did very well considering they had to Tango to Ghostbusters. 3) Anita's horns interfered with her armography and flow of her dance, which wasn't her fault and it's annoying that she was penalised for it. 4) Seriously, somebody needs to give Bruno a stern talking to, he's being unnecessarily vile. 5) Please, please, please stop these ludicrous VTs. I don't think we saw any training in some of them! |

A rubbish night
Dreadful music Dreary costumes I feel for people that had to sit through the live show Tess did her best ... but she was flogging a dead horse. |

Delighted to see G&G top of the leaderboard and finally get the recognition that I feel they deserve.
A lot of the costumes look great, but should not detract from or restrict the dancing (eg Anitas horns). Too much emphasis maybe being placed upon the look rather than the dance. I think she deserved higher marks (especially in relation to how a few others were marked) but I think this is a running theme with her. Critisising Peter seems to pain the judges so....but should they be making it so obvious when they don't seem to give a flying fig when it comes to them insulting other celebs? Jamelia looked very pretty tonight. As much as I like them well enough, I have found nothing in Carol or Kirstys dancing/entertainment/personality or partnership to wish to see them again over the others, so hope one of them goes tonight |

* Make up and costume peeps deserve all the plaudits they get. Whether people like theme weeks or not, what they do is just phenomenal.
* Feeling very sorry for Katie. Regardless of whether she's dancing well or not, the judges seem harsher on her than some others. * Tess looked absolutely stunning tonight. Just don't get the harsh comments she gets on here. * Love Georgia more and more as each week goes by. * Still voting for Kirsty 😊 |

Worst show of the series, awful dances, songs, vts
Now wondering if Jay is as compelling when you can't actually recognise him.....still love him though... Helen, all faux sweetness when we all know she ain't as prim and proper as she'd like us to think... Anton needs to be put out to pasture How come Caroline Flack was so adorable on strictly but is a complete mushroom on fix factor? |

James criticised the amount of time that Danny Dyer appeared in Kellie's VT and then both exchanged words over who has the lesser career with phrases like "sloppy nuts" and the like. Imagine boys in the playground and you know it!

1. Anita is not the best technical dancer and there were flaws, however she is the best performer by a mile for me. She embodies the dance and, which can be the gardest thing, even shows it in her eyes. She can connect to the audience and that is how you win.
2. Jamelia was way too overmarked, she was just so flat footed nd lacking of any jive action, she also did not have high energy that was said, Jeremy did, but still ovrmarked also. 3. I felt sorry for Georhia, at last a dance that really suited her and it's an awful theme week, to ghostbusters no less. Not really something you would do in a final. I would love to see her do a proper tango. 4. To me Peter seems like he has put on a veneer and is false to me. Also the whole bit to the judges is getting a bit much. I think he is going for humble, but when he says they are right and he knows, to me it seems condescending, as if he knew that anyway. 5. I made the connection of Helen and Aljaz dressed as Mummies and their song far later then I wish to admit. She also looked stunning dressed as a mummy, her make up was amazing! |
