It must be a tricky job, being a pro on Strictly.

Apart from the Jive Jay and Alionas dances don't do anything for me, he reminds me of Louis , i didn't enjoy him either. Seems like a nice guy though
That's exactly how I feel, although I keep hoping to be WOWed every week.

I loved that routine with the colorful elf like outfits!
That looks tailor made for a Kellie and Kevin routine!

I've liked everything apart from the QS . I never remember any of Helen's dances, except for how stiff her legs are. She's like a mannequin dancing. Nice girl though.

I understand people wanting to be WOW by Jay again after his Jive but since the week of the QS, his dances haven't exactly been WOW dances.
I guess we all see things differently ( which is good ) because I'm always impressed by his performances. I like Anita , Jeremy and Georgia as well. I also look forward to Kellie's routines, mostly because I want to see what kevin will do . The rest bore me I'm afraid.

I really think that he'll start peaking again in the upcoming weeks. The show isn't over yet. He still has the salsa, Samba, charleston, rumba. ...to do so I'm sure we'll see that wow factor again soon. He's doing really well. I look forward to see him every week and his interview tonight was great .

Not too keen on Helen but I think that she'll make the finale.
Georgia is peaking at the right time so I would like to see her there.

Anita, Peter. ..would have to fight for that 4th place I'm afraid.

It would be great. Strictly doesn't seem to take on improvements introduced by other countries.
Because they're only interested in what goes on in DWTS in the US.

He reminds of a teenager who feels slightly awkward dancing in front of people. I wish his Jive had come a little later in the series- i just feel everyone expects that standard from him each week.

Completely agree with BIB all the dances he has left could all be WOW dances and I rather him in the next coming weeks rather than now.

Their interview earlier was really good.

Jay has such a good soul. I don't think he's done an interview where he hasn't complimented the relationships between everyone or a particular pro or celeb.

Any dance can be a 'wow' dance i think depending on how its done. I think the Charleston could be a good dance for him if they pick the right style - e.g. not a 'goofy' type one!

Are you saying Kellie won't make the final 4 or Jeremy who could potentially win this year he is so popular?

And they are not taking the good parts from it! Wasn't Jason part of DWTS before coming to Strictly or did i dream that?

Yes, especially if we thought somebody wasn't putting in enough hours (Gary Rhodes ) and it was always good to hear stats that would dispel the myths around how well somebody was doing.

He just needs to learn to sell a dance a bit better for me. His awkwardness is strange given he danced on stage - and I mean even before he joined The Wanted. Maybe it's the size of the audience or something.

Really loving Helen ... noticed for the first time this evening that she has unusually long ear lobes!

I'm still rooting for her though .. she and Georgia are definitely going to be in the final!

It might be that Strictly is so intimate and the audience are right there beside you. Plus you and your pro are the only 2 on the dance floor, i know i would feel very exposed!

I would love to see Jeremy in the finals but I don't think that will happen. Jay and Helen will be there imo. I also think that Georgia can make it.
Not too sure about Kellie. But the fight for the 4th place is between her , Peter and Anita imo.
