Poor version of a classic song. She seemed to struggle for the right note several times.

I agree, they look as if they’re going to the toilet. It's one of the reasons why I think we're failing at Eurovision, the younger generation of singers don't connect well with cameras.
I was not able to watch tonight Show however I will take a Guess that Kevin was one of the last pro's on.

Rumer? Is that her name? My goodness she can sure murdered a decent tune.

I missed them, that IS interesting! I also don't blame him though. Did he say why he accepted it?

Yeah, probably with his arm up his back whilst being told "you will love it" !

Its good they referenced it, maybe they've been seeing comments on DS
I just hope he is right and their version of the music fits the AT.
Given the amount of actual interesting dance content, this programme could be reduced to about twenty minutes.
Save me from celebrity "fans."
They're either there to plug their next BBC programme or are a complete waste of space, like Anneka Rice.
Do I care about their opinions?
The BBC obviously think I do.

Marvin Gaye did quite a few versions of the song - the one I posted earlier is more than half way there

"Didn't stay till the end." So I missed her.
Someone bought me her first CD? On the strength of the fact that I liked the tune "Goodbye Girl" and often played it on my electric piano. They weren't aware it was just a cover of David Gates.
But the CD was OK.

I know right? I mean I know she is short, but my god I didn't think she was that tiny, lol. They had to keep moving the camera back to get her in shot, LOL.

True, the song and the comedy theatre which is Ed Balls will no doubt have people voting for him. But he has no hip action at all in that clip and looked like a demented penguin sidling to the side, lol
However as Mel said none of the top people have been in the bottom to other than Ore, so if Ed goes through its going to be a shock bottom two this week and I think it has to be two men as so many women have gone now.
What an absolutely lovely ITT. Loved Naga talking to the old guys.
(I know, BRAINWAVE... Let's not fight or provoke conflict, or make and export armaments, or eff up the world any more.)
Loved Anneka too. She's so off-balance in a charming, slightly drunken way.
Loved Ore and Greg chatting to Gethin. Nice shirt Ore!👀
LOVE Giovanni. Him. Just love him.
I even liked that singer giving Bacharach a pretty good go. No one else did. But she steered her way thro it with feeling, neither Dusty nor Dionne but with shades of both. Bacharach is the hardest of popular composers. She did OK, whoever she is.
Most of all, I loved the idea of the Pro dance. To have those two guys there in the studio is going to be emotional

AJ, camp, camp and look at me...
Can't stand the guy... he's been lucky with his partner but AJ hasn't got the class of Vincent and others.

When Zoe mentioned the song choice for Danny and Oti's AT I was sure I saw Oti roll her eyes. I just checked it out on You Tube and she definitely does. At about 5.08

Of Aliona "epic eye-roll" proportions.

Its sad that a better dancer wont get through to Blackpool because of him being a novelty

He believes he is a good dancer when in reality he is the worst

No Salsa and dad dancing and viewers at home voting for it instead of celebs who can do the dance they are given

and you would be right, all the gushing over Louise and Kevin made me reach for the sick bucket
Hi, does anyone know at what point (number of pages?) a thread gets a new part? This thread (Part 16) has been going for over a year! Only reason I ask is that for some reason I can no longer see page numbers (on my phone) so every time I want to catch up on thread, I come in on Page 1; have to hit the arrow to go to last page then keep tabbing back page by page to get to where I last read! It's really annoying....

I had to stop watching ITT due to all the sickening gushing from Zoe . After trying to watch her in that brief clip I can see that I was right .
Why do the producers of this show treat their audience like mindless morons, with all this OTT saccharine filled guff, repeated day after day .
I don't mind some positivity but they take it to mind numbing levels of nausea .
