1. Halloween week - bin it! Can't see the legwork or armwork properly, celebs can't perform properly & songs were atrocious
![]() 2. Andre - zip it. ![]() 3. What a sexy mummy Helen was! ![]() 4. Kirsty never looked like she was having fun, it was her time to go. Brendan - zip it! ![]() 5.Carol doing that Rumba cannot be unseen.

1. I now use the mute button whenever Peter Andre opens his mouth; also for both Bruno and Darcey when doing their "judging".
2. Anita's waltz was beautiful and I love the contemporary ending. How on earth did Gleb get up backwards like that!! Undermarked is an understatement. 3. On first viewing Jay's AS felt a bit flat; after watching it 3 times I could see how good he/it was. Aliona looked stunning too. 4. Carol was the worst dancer but can't help being relieved that Kirsty was put out of her misery. I couldn't take much more of her. 5. The professional dances were awful. That chess fiasco was, I think, the worst dance I have EVER seen on Strictly. Ola looked like a chubby Helena Bonham Carter. Sneaky 6. Poor Georgia had the worst dress ever seen on Strictly but managed a magnificent Tango. She gets better by the week. |

1. Bit of an underwhelming week with no real wow dance
2. Love J&As more every time I watch it 3. K&Ks Can't believe they didn't get rid of the capes, so we could see if there was any shaping. I liked the first bit though with the wands. 4. I really enjoyed Jamelias Jive and was gutted for her to be in the d/o again. 5. I really enjoyed Anita and Glebs routine and despite thinking they were under marked I feel they ended up in about the right place. |

Carol was the worst dancer, if you can call it dancing ![]() 5. i didn't like either 6. well it was a Ghostbusters outfit, and yes she gets better by the week, she's looking more and more like a potential finalist

1) As much as I enjoy the spectacle of Halloween Week I think they're extremely close to exhausting the number of songs/themes to use for it. This is leading to too much repetition of previous years and the use of songs that don't really work for any of the dances used. Now perhaps if they introduced new dance styles specifically for theme weeks that could be avoided.
2) How did Jay and Aliona get away with so much "faffing around" at the beginning of their dance? It made Kirsty's walk down the stairs last week seem brief by comparison. Still my favourite couple though. 3) Was very pleasing to see Georgia and Giovanni lay to rest the memory of Sid Owen dancing to Ghostbusters a few years back. Hopefully they can keep the momentum going and not become 'one week wonders' 4) I'm not sure if Peter is genuine or not in his reverence to the judges scores, either way he comes across as the least sincere person I can remember on the show....even Mark Wright wasn't this bad. 5) I hope Kevin is given a really slow and ponderous duffer next year, it might do him some good to learn a different way of dancing other than "ridiculously fast" Bonus 6) Anton knows he has a one trick pony (and I think Katie knows that he too is a one trick pony), I almost feel sorry for Jamelia, I genuinely felt sorry for Kirsty, I'd be fine with Jeremy sticking around all series, Gleb is brilliant (and Anita's quite good too), Helen seems like this years "finalist that everyone knows won't win", and Carol....I completely switched off during her dance. Her and Pasha are the most nondescript couple I can remember making it this far. |

1) Halloween is my one favourite weeks on Strictly but this year I was disappointed
2) Still waiting to see a WOW dance six weeks have gone but there has been only one WOW dance so far this series and that was Jay week 3 3) Jay was my favourite again but think his dance could have been a very good dance if it wasnt done on Halloween. 4) Anita was brilliant had a brilliant theme and was underscored 5) I quite like Jamelia and she shouldnt of been in the dance off |

1. For the first time I got Jeremy Vine's charm. He really is loving it, and working quite hard I think.
2. I bet Craig looks just like that after a weekend's hard partying. 3.So disappointed that the dry ice failed to swallow Peter whole. 4. Aliona's choreography was subtle and fluent and those lifts were perfection. 5. I never want to see a 45 year old Hermione Grainger flashing her knickers again

1 - Halloween Week serves no purpose other than creating employment for BBC makeup artists.
2 - Katie may not be able to dance, but she tickles my fancy all the same. 3 - Could Jamelia notch up 7 DO appearances before she finally departs? (She could conceivably get to 6 seeing off Jezza, Carole and Katie before getting the chop in her 7th appearance.) 4 - Quentin Wilson was robbed - Carole's "dance" was worthy of a lower score than Q's legendary effort. 5 - I very rarely feel strongly about who wins, but please let it not be Peter Andre! |

I also think that even if she did end up there, Katie with a Ballroom dance (Foxtrot, Waltz, American Smooth, Quickstep) would quite possibly beat everyone but Jay or maybe Helen; her Latin might not be strong, but she's one of the strongest Ballroom dancers we've had in a while. |
