Right, what's left at this point is fairly manageable, so let's see...

Anita & Gleb - Argentine, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Viennese / Paso, Rumba, Salsa
Carol & Pasha - Argentine, Tango, Waltz / Charleston, Jive, Salsa, Samba
Georgia & Giovanni - Smooth, Argentine, Foxtrot, Viennese / Cha-Cha-Cha, Charleston, Paso
Helen & Aljaz - Smooth, Argentine, Tango, Viennese / Charleston, Jive, Paso
Jamelia & Tristan - Smooth, Argentine, Quickstep, Tango / Paso, Rumba, Samba
Jay & Aliona - Foxtrot, Tango, Viennese / Charleston, Rumba, Salsa, Samba
Jeremy & Karen - Argentine, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Viennese / Paso, Rumba, Samba
Katie & Anton - Smooth, Argentine, Foxtrot, Waltz / Charleston, Rumba, Samba
Kellie & Kevin - Smooth, Argentine, Quickstep, Viennese / Rumba, Salsa, Samba
Peter & Janette - Smooth, Argentine, Viennese, Waltz / Jive, Salsa, Samba

Jay should be on latin this week having done two ballrooms, and Helen vice-versa. It seems odd that Peter's the only one to have done neither of the waltzes so I'm guessing he has one of those if not this week then in his near future, and Georgia might have the cha-cha for similar reasons (i.e. by dint of being the only one not to have done it yet).

Claudia did mention something about Jay and a Foxtrot, but I'm guessing that was more of a punchline than an exclusive dance reveal.

I wondered if it was a reference to his foxtrot AS last week, not sure though

I hope Georgia does the Cha-Cha and gets it out the way. I remember last year that dance being the downfall of Pixie....

I agree as well. Reason why I'm convinced that out of ALL the remaining celebrities women left, she's the MOST likely to make the finale. And even if she ends up in a dance-off somewhere down the line, I expect the judges to save her over everyone else except Jay.

Her ballroom are fine. But charleston, jive and paso for her Latin? she's got the tall girl jive left not sure the charleston is her unless they can pitch it somewhere around Sophie Ellis-Bextor and not sure dramatic paso is her either.

I'm not a fan of Helen in Latin anyway, or rather I'm not a fan of how judges are scoring her Latins. I think she's very good in ballroom though and I did enjoy the emotion of the rumba even if it had zero hip action.

Hopefully a few will be revealed in the results show tonight.

(Yes, I'm aware this is a very banal post - I'm trying to bump a spoiler off the front page!)

Yeah, she would rather have had the party latin and the rumba still left

If Anita can get 9's for that Jive, then Helen has nothing to worry about (case in point........Alesha, to combine the two).

As for the Charleston, she reminds me exactly of SEB (but a lot better then her at the party latin) so it should suit her to a T.

To me, the most impactful dances are Paso, Tango, Jive and Charleston (as in, getting the audience at their feet) and she has all of those still left. Which is why I can see Peter and Kellie (and Anita to particular degree) struggling in the next few weeks.

Jeremy Vine said on twitter that he'd be doing the Quickstep next week (in response to a song suggestion from a follower)...

...IF he survives this week.

I'm not sure how quick those long legs will be able to move.

Still, if he survives this week, I'm hoping he stays past next week as well. I just want to him to stay long enough to do the Paso.

I hope he doesn't get them tangled! His legs are rather long.

My predictions are in bold. Would be a very unpredictable week, with these dances, as unlike this week most couples are on tricky ground.

Not predicted the AT, but if someone does have that then they have a big disadvantage next week.

I can't imagine Jeremy getting any other than This Charming Man if he does indeed do the Quickstep. I've seen people asking for him to dance to it since he signed up.

Yeah I guess you're right. I was thinking of what are usual crowd pleasers but they aren't necessarily what Helen will be good at.

I am looking I'd love to see Anita doing the waltz and Georgia doing the foxtrot.

Anita did the Waltz last week.

The Gentlemen.

Think Peter may have peaked with the charleston

Hope Jay gets an upbeat happy dance next week, he's had three intense dances on the trot, Paso, AT and Big Bad Wolf AS.
Here's hoping for a salsa or charleston just to lighten the mood

Jeremy QS, could actually be good if Karen keeps the choreography simple.

The Ladies,

Worried re: Katie, Helen and Jamelia they seem to be struggling so hope they get dances that suit.

Carole, she'll just waft around swishing her skirt as always.

Georgia, Kellie and Anita, I guess they'll cope with whatever they get.

Already looking forward to next Saturday

Well, she did do the Waltz last week, but it will be interesting to see how she gets with a Viennese without being hindered by such a cumbersome outfit.

Wasn't her AS VW based or am I misremembering?

I wonder what 'Gleb special" would feature in an Anita rumba?

I don't think Anita will have the VW as her AS was VW style.

Yes, would be nice to see a full Viennese though
