Unappreciating Oksana not calming JR down and sorting out his footwork. His Jive leg work looked like an Irish dancer on acid.

I also unappreciated his outfit. She looked great and he looked like he had just walked out of an extremely dodgy nightclub! Was looking forward to a real 40's looking jive

I was really pleased when Ore was announced. I like him on Breakfast tele and he's easy on the eye. Then you realise that given free rein, he's a bit of a lovvie and it all gets a bit meh. I started to like him a smidge at the judging last night because he looked so totally bemused by what he was hearing - he knew what he had just done didn't mesh with the comments. Then somewhere between the judges and Claude he rallied and turned into a Grayson/Mark Wright cross and that's it - lost me for good.
That is exactly what he seems to be. Bloody Grayson Towie. Oh grief, what a revolting thought. And what a disappointment.

I miss Will Young. I think he'd have brought a different dimension to proceedings. Now he's gone, the producers seem to have had an emergency rethink and decided that Danny v Grayson Towie the Second is the way to go. I am not impressed.

Massively unappreciated Daisy's costume, make up and hair while at the same time appreciating the effort that must have gone into making her look that awful. Given the basic materials, they had to put some serious craftsmanship into it.

To give Vicky Giggles, Mrs Ant and their teams of Titivators their due it does sometimes seem that theiy can make the beautiful look less than stellar with ease. It's keeping them looking beautiful that's the challenge.

Just caught up on last night's show...so much to unappreciate.

I was clearly watching a different show from the judges. I thought Judge Rinder was stompy and I have had enough of those faces. Ore was skippy and awkward. I liked Daisy's Charleston although War Drobe clearly designed those costumes in the dark. Lesley not only got landed with death slot, it was coupled with awful theming and costumes plus Anton in guy liner. WTF!

Goddess Nat is working overtime to disguise Greg's complete inability to dance. My hopes for a Michael Vaughan-style redemption are fast fading.

We need some more male pros to be poorly so that Gorka can come back as Rent-A-Pro.

AJ appears to have caught TTF's over-dancing affliction - dial it down a notch or nine to give your celeb a chance, love. Or fewer orange Smarties and less Coke before the show.

I have no words for Ed - please stop voting for him people.

Aren't we overdue for a shiny new thread anyway?

Just caught up.

How fast was Claudia's dance?? FFS she's only got little legs, Goodness knows how she managed to keep up with that! Well, she didn't quite, but she did very well.

If it wasn't for the fact that I believe Ore is being overmarked, Joanne is being overpraised and Danny is being undermined to try and give them the upper hand, I would vote for Claudia.
I unappreciate that the Judges aren't marking Ore fairly and the playing field between him and Danny is uneven. So for now, I have voted for Danny.

He may have had previous experience, but I have enjoyed watching every one of his dances very much so far.

Lesley seemed a bit deflated. And weary.
I think she made several mistakes and lost energy part through.
She seemed to be apologising to Anton as they mounted the stairs.
I think she knew she hadn't danced well and was resigned to the Judges negative comments.
Her whole body language seemed to be shrugging and saying 'oh well.'
i think she is willing herself to be in the dance off.
Its time for Ed to go.
Although I'm sure he will be kept in for Halloween at least.

The thing I unappreciate the most this year is that Natalie has, yet again, been given a duffer.
If only she'd been given Danny.

Also I had suspected - wrongly as it turns out - that Rinder was hiding some dance skill under his robes.
His stompy wide footed spinning about is getting on my nerves.

Unappreciating how quickly this series is going down the pan. Started well but this week was one of the worse I have seen for a while. Maybe I am remembering the past through rose tinted specs.

God I HATE it when the judges get involved in pro dances... especially Len and Darcey just standing craving attention.

I often find if I love one series, I find the next rather boring. I think that may be happening for me this year.

Well, that pro dance was a load of nothing. When can we finally get rid of Gilkison?

Found that pro dance a bit...much, with the judge's cameos and Katya's husband-pro hunting for the camera. Also not a fan of Thoroughly Modern Millie

I'm one of those PURITY OF DAHNCE folks, but can we do some nice non-themed pro dances at some point?

Not surprising, but feel a bit sorry for Lesley.

Me too. She's more invested than I'd realised. She looked to be on the verge of tears just then.
