Getting the elusive comment and score is a big deal.

It means the couple did something special that warranted that trademark comment and score. Of course, this does not mean the couple will automatically win the trophy based on the coveted feedback. Nonetheless, it can do wonders to the couple's confidence and pique the attention of viewers/audience who witness that special moment.

Is there a couple(s) who is in line for any (or both) of the feedback in the coming weeks? Will it happen sooner/later in the competition? Is there a particular dance style a couple can rely on to earn the feedback? Will a couple quietly emerge from the mid-pack to swoop in for the comment/score?

(Feel free to change the predictions on a weekly basis as each couple showcases their growth and performance).

Its mid week, and the frequency of the 9's paddles seem to be slowly surfacing above the judges table. With all the couples having 6+ weeks of foundational dance training and showing encouraging signs of improvement, it seems like it's only a matter of time.

Curious to see how this will pan out in the coming weeks and congrats to the poster(s) who made the correct prediction(s).

Hasn't Jay already had an A-May-Zing from Craig for his jive?

He has indeed. Although it was followed by "Darling".

As for the first Len "10", Katie & Anton have Quickstep next week, which could, just possibly, be a contender.

(Plus, it's exactly the sort of thing TPTB would script; Anton's first 10, from Len no less, Katie's redemption...).

Yes, you're right! Thank you for pointing that out. Though I was initially aiming for the clean one-liner from Craig, we can definitely cross that off the list.

Curious to see how and under what circumstance Len's first '10' will make an appearance. Interesting prediction about Anton.

Kellie and Kevin doing a waltz could well get a 10 from Len.
