So what 80's band is going to reform next Wham?, Bananarama?
BIB Yes please Joining in with the 80s singalong . . . 'Nathan Jones, you've been gone too long . . . '

It seems all pretence of proper dancing has gone out the window now, if there ever was any, and Katya and the BBC are just throwing crazier and crazier costumes and themes at Ed. He does sometimes do proper dance steps, for small sections of the dance, before the show dance stuff erupts again, I'll give him that though, but I mean male model with cat walk challenge while channelling Zoolander??? God help us all!
Ha ha it could be genius though

I thought it was a moment when you could really see the experienced politician at work. Which is fine, nothing wrong with that but he's practised in responding to negative criticism and turning it away... and it showed.

If you aren't aware of him in his rl role and don't encounter legal judges in your everyday life, I suppose 'Judge' just becomes another given name rather than a title.
Well yes but he's not even a real judge. I'm surprised they're not more informal with each other but perhaps they are and this was just an exception.

I cant be bothered to get into it with you ... AGAIN!

People were saying good on Miranda for speaking the truth about Danny (as they saw it) ... her honesty just turned out to be plain old bias though as no way was Claudia's dance as good as Danny's!

They are trying to play Danny down, they did it last year too. It didn't work then and it won't now.
And I don't see how saying Danny is "too good" is playing him down. It's an admission that he's way ahead of the rest of the pack but that that very fact might not always work in his favour. Not everyone votes for the best dancer. Otherwise forget complaints that the competition was won in week 3 last year - this year's competition would have been over in week 1.

Pointing out errors he makes are not bringing him down either - they are humanizing him, which is what the judges have been trying to do as well. That FT was a godsend for him. Otherwise Danny would be top of the leaderboard each week, scoring non-stop perfect 10s, and would lose the competition quicker than you could say "dirtyringuh".

Ed was v right saying they didn't skimp on dance content for pure entertainment. And full credit to Katya she delivered fabulously entertaining routines but didn't just go for the easy comedy and Ed clearly improved considerably.

There were some Saturday nights that Ed saved the show when it was a bit flat! He really embraced it and gave his all!

If Ed had any sense he wouldn't go near politics again!

If Katya can get this far with Ed I would love to see her with a decent contender - she has been amazing!!
