22 hours! Does anyone else remember the days when they used to tell us how many hours training each couple has done that week? A part of me would like to see that re-instated!

It will expose him, but it's getting to make or break time and I want him to have a proper go.

Not keen on Long Tall Sally for jive in 40 years have never used it

I hate dancing the jive the way they do, I just do it ballroom low, then it's fun.

Sounds as though they have their jive under control and reasonably confident.

Yay - Richard Osman on the Friday panel!

So do I. Bit surprised that I do - and he's also growing on me more and more.

Yep. I'm sure it will be fine. Just wish he would really use the floor positively.

Well, I suppose you can practice your Jive anywhere at any time Danny.

See you tomorrow guys.

It makes me nervous when someone 'talks up' an upcoming dance - it usually ends badly!

yes I agree, I hate some of the costumes some weeks because they do not put everyone on a even playing field - so think it will be make or break too

I agree.


Me too

Danny really does look like one of the most advanced male dancers ~ringahs ever to be on the show. He like Pixie did a few years before show their stage school training in their lack of drive into the floor in latin, but I think he'll be okay.

I love Danny and Oti. Their interview was funny.

Danny needs to get into floor more he is doing what most stage dances do and is a bit light - sure it will be good on the night

I know

I'm hoping that they have put the hours in and the routine has become second nature!

Not Richard Osman. Yawn.

Now Will has gone, Daisy is by far the best dressed in the training room.

Did Rinder seem to be adding hip action to his QS?

Poor Laura looks like she's floundering.

Great show tonight.
I'm slightly starting to lose interest in Greg and Natalie. I feel like she babies him too much and I'm not sure that it's beneficial to their partnership.
Love Danny and Oti. They're amazing together and I'm really looking forward to their jive .

I dont know if she's still marking that dance or tptb are purposely showing us " bad bits " of training, but Laura still doesn't look good.

Utter filth... and I LOVE it!

Glad that it is not just me that is losing interest in Greg and Nat, agree she does seem to be babying him

I hope so too.

Natalie's really irritating me this year. "Advanced"?? Yeah right.

Danny comes across really well. He seems to be loving what he's doing and putting the work in, without becoming over invested like some this year. He and Oti are a brilliant partnership.

Producers could have given Laura AT too. Slow dance would have helped her.
Six weeks gone and only people have danced Samba. I guess they would never have given AT to anyone else, when Louise is dancing it, don't want any comparison.
