Oti is wonderful, she has done a terrific job with Danny.
She's a smashing girl.

But does have a touch of the crazy legs crane about her.

She has but she hasn't had to mould him like Katya has Ed. Danny started off good.

Someone who sees as I do. Thank you.
Always thought there's something about her legs in certain dances I don't like. It was highlighted in the charleston I thought but I really haven't enjoyed any samba I've seen her do in comps. Don't get me wrong though, I really like her.

Sounds like this dance is going to be crazy but maybe not a good crazy.

Haha!

Well, she always makes me smile watching her so that's good enough for me. Fab addition.

Love Dan Walker. Star of Rio 2016 with his late night broadcasts from Copacabana beach - epic!
Yeah he was great, remember the hen party that crashed his broadcast . He took it in his stride.

They have had 'frantic' as a criticism so that's my only concern. And partic giving him several high energy dances on the trot - makes it seem as if that's their dancing all the time. When some of their slower numbers have been lovely too.

I'm knackered just watching!

At one point she looked like Edward Scissorhands' alter ego - Ed Scissorlegs. Weird.

I do like her though - lovely girl but visually alarming at times.

Love Oti and Danny .. they're fab and have so much personality. I feel relaxed watching/listening to them ... even though Oti's quite hyper. She's loopy but in a good way

Did they say its an African themed samba? I noticed Oti's samba dress has taken inspiration from Ndebele art when they showed it yesterday.
