We've had it wrong all along. It's Kellie's own clothes she's wearing. She invited Kevin round for a coffee at the beginning of the series; on his way back from the loo he took a wrong turning, ended up in Kellie's wardrobe and has been theming their dances around it ever since. You've no idea how hard he had to think before he came up with "hip hop samba" so that she could wear her favourite clubbing outfit the other week.

I would love to step into Kellie's head just for a few minutes

"Wow, Anita is looking sexy in that barely there salsa dress, ooh, Katie looks gorgeous in that elegant foxtrot dress, wow, the feathers on Helen's dress are exqusite, but I bloody love my ill-fitting QS dress. I think them pinning the bust has made all the difference" 🙄

The only time she's had a decent dress is the bloody opening show before Kevin got his hands on her, that blue generic Latin dress was gorgeous. Oh and the jive? where she had that black Cabaret fringed outfit.

Is it a mix of she genuinely doesn't care about clothes mixed with Kevin and his gormless theming?

I am 50/50 on it to be honest, I hope she does well as I don't want a final of the really mediocre and despite the pummelling of Anita fans telling how wonderful she is, she really isn't, mediocre with great presentation skills. The Chris Hollins of this series only for me without the likability factor.

If Helen does go out this weekend the series will be a lot poorer for it, ditto Jay.

All the rest can go out in any order and I won't miss them”

Sorry to keep quoting you, but, once again, I agree with your views on Helen and Anita.

I do think she suits the more 20's/30's styling rather than the 50's (or what Ward Robe consider 50's. I have it on good authority from mum and aunts who were there that - nah, not so much with the sausage curls!) but it seems there is only room for one Deco celeb, and that's Helen.

This of course is not helped by Gleb not actually bothering to teach her any technique and just getting her through each dance (as she has admitted herself).

She and Katie are the weakest dancers and it would be fairer for them both to go over the others.

I think Anita has rallied support because of the relentless 'never danced before/starting from scratch' storyline and the 'journeeee' that some love so much.

At this stage it really gets very tiresome and is no longer relevant.

Some people will always resent and rail against a natural talent like Jay or Helen. It's a kind of back-handed jealousy of someone who shines too brightly. It was ever thus, in all walks of life, including business. The old Tall Poppy syndrome.

I'd rather see her back in her job where she truly shines - as a brilliant presenter.”

That for me is the real shame of it, Anita could be so much better if he'd bothered about the basics and techique, rather than the flash bang wallop that he loves so much. A good solid foundation would improve her dances so much, but it's not going to happen now, I just hope the hell he's going to cut out the 'show the audience your vagina' lift for Saturday

I do worry for Helen, just can't see the paso suiting her at all, but my votes only go one way at this stage. But fingers crossed I will get to see both Jay and Helen's showdances (cos it's all about me, innit )

Damnit! Just rematched Jay's jive and thanks to this thread all I can see are the bloody great safety pins

Seriously wardrobe, the guy is 6ft 2. Who were those trousers made for that they needed that much emergency turning up?

Kellie to bugger off this weekend please there is no alternative. She's seemed knackered for the last month, Kevin's seemed knackered for the last series and a half, she's still yomping her head off like a car alarm every chance she gets, the barely concealed strop both of them threw over their entirely deserved Quickstepathon placement was embarrassing (you still would have been bottom 2 without it loves trust me), she's so stage school she makes Letitia Dean look like Marlon Brando, Oliver! makes me want to puke and most of all I AM BORED TO TEARS WITH THE OBSESSION WITH HOW SHE IS DRESSED.

You never know - he might have caught his foot in the hem at the last minute and safety pins were the best way to make sure it didn't happen again!

Would that give us more time to obsess over Jay and his gorgeous woobiness? Can we discuss in detail the psychological reasons for his inability to speak after dancing? Can we discuss his wardrobe? Can we discuss his arms, his beard, his footwork and just general all round wonderfulness...sigh. Can our ovaries take a vote?

Then, I'm all for it, "Kellie out" placards all round then!

Also, it gives us even more time to discuss Anita's earnestness, it's a win/win

I think we're all assuming that's the actual reason for it, but I would think wardrobe could hem a pair of trousers in a few minutes. In fact, I would expect seamstresses and dressmakers that experienced to be able to run up a fairly simple pair of trousers in a few minutes.

I just get the impression that there are certain celebs they care about and others they don't.

Or if they couldn't hem them, that's what wonderweb is for! Cut a piece and iron it back up... Not much more effort than multiple safety pins

That were the size of nappy pins They now couldn't be more obvious if they'd put bloody sequins on them.

After all the discussion the last few hours, I have rewatched the jive to put in a good mood..

And I totally agree. How I didn't notice the pins before amazes me.

it's very impressive, he can go from clean shaven to full face of beard in 6 days

Kevin would take 6 months and it would still look more like tufts of grass in a desert

I can't stop watching the way the trousers fall about his ankles when he's flicking and kicking

I'm convinced they see Ward Robe as more of an art project than actual clothes. That people are going to have to move in.

He is tall, but has a long torso more than long legs. I mean they are still long, but he is not all legs.
