1. Tess, please get Katie's surname right - it's Derham not Durham!
2. Really annoyed at The judges' response to Anita - not fair.
3. Were the teapots really necessary?
4. Katie looked amazing in that wig.
5. No stand-out dances for me - but I thoroughly enjoyed the show.

1) agreed with Len about Jay and his attire tonight he/wardrobe could have made more an effort when i first saw him i thought he just rushed into the studio with out getting changed
2) did not like Helen's Dance (sorry) and think she could be a shock bottom 2 contender
3) loved Kellie and Kevin's Dance
4 ) claudia's chocolate gag ?? nah didn't like that
5) Tess is beyond Hopeless

1. I absolutely LOVED Helen tonight - that was so exciting and dramatic! Gutted with the judges' scores though.

2. Nice to see Jay getting the marks he deserves, but... I didn't enjoy that.

3. Anita annoyed me in mentioning her lack of training whilst talking about how she has no time to fret about not having any training, and her dance was rubbish!

4. Katie - meh.

5. Lovely Disney routine from Georgia, that was beautiful.

6. Kellie was great too, I could have done without the table kicking bit though (yes I know its 5 thoughts but I didn't want to leave one out!)

Loved Kellie and Kevin
Loved Helen and Aljaz
Loved Jay and Aliona
Loved Anita and Gleb
Hated Katie and Anton

1) Jay and Aliona - stunning
2) Loved the music for Helen and Aljaz as I adore Les Mis, but didn't like the dance at all. Thought Helen was really weak and her face was awful
3) Georgia and Giovanna were lovely
4) Kellie and Kevin weren't as annoying as usual
5) I can't remember much about the other dances

Not

Last week.

1. K&K did the impossible and turned that theme+VW into a great dance.
2. Poor Helen- themeing killed that dance.
3. GG managed not to make that too sickly sweet for the over-7s
4. Tough for Katie to be doing a FT the same week GG did an almost perfect one.
5. Jay pulled off the near impossible of doing a lovely rumba up against some real barnstormers.

Oh- and Kellie's never looked prettier or better dressed. Who'd've thought it, eh- a barmaid/prostitute look and finally wardrobe and make-up geddit.

1) Loved the show, felt special
2) Loved Anita's AT, despite what the judges said
3) Loved Helen's Paso although her facial expressions were OTT
4) HATED the backing dancers and the teapots and other props
5) Don't want anyone to leave !

1. Loved Jays rumba - best male rumba ever!
2. They want Anita out!
3. Loved Katie's foxtrot
4. How much VW did Kellie and Kevin actually dance?
5. Georgia and Giovanni are really growing on me!

1. pleasantly surprised by Kellies dance, looked like it could have been from Westend but i just think the dancing got lost amongst all the chaos tbh
2. Loved the rumba, always knew it would be best male rumba everrrrr
3. Worried for Anita
4. Helen really reminded me of Anna Farris' character from JustFriends.... What were those facial expressions?
5. Agreed with Len regarding Craigs "making it up" method of scoring. God that man is tight

1. I can't believe I'm saying it but I liked Kellie and Kevin's routine best, tonight. Fair play, she makes the best of whatever she's given, and that suited her for once!
2. I thought Helen's dance was awful, really messy, and probably not her fault as there was far too much going on around her and Aljaz, the whole thing was just chaotic.
3. Katie looks tired.
4. Georgia and Giovnni's dance, too, that stupid stuff with the teapots! Just because it's from a musical, it doesn't mean you have to have all the other characters from the musical in it as well!
5. I fear for Anita, I think her number is up.

1. Team GG rocked it again tonight!
2. Jay overmarked.
3. Anita's legs were really not great. What are you teaching her Gleb?! The choreo wasn't great imo either.
4. Helen's Paso wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be.
5. Musicals week was ruined by over-choreographing with the extra dancers (e.g. Helen's) and some of the songs completely changed the dances altogether (Kellie's)!

1. Ok, I am a Jay fan, but I didn't like that at all.
When he finished I said, oh no, he's in trouble, so was rather shocked by the judges response and then the scores.
It felt stilted to me and I thought it seemed smaller and shy.
Also I am never a fan of jeans as a costume, to me it doesn't make you feel you are in the dance frame of mind.
I will have to rewatch it as I just didn't see it at all.

2. Those bloody characters at the back of GG's dance were so distracting, I don't know if it was because they were so big, I kept noticing them, so it distracted from a nice moment between the two of them. In practise I thought tens, but the whole thing just felt different adding those in.

3. Anita was awful. Strip back the music, costume and theme and all you have is poor technique and an awkward dance.
She also never looks happy when the judges are not fawning.

4. Helen looked like she was wearing a face, not a feeling she was emoting. It looked to false and forced for me. The paso isn't about snarling your way through it.

5. Kellie actually looked nice for a change, on a dance I didn't expect her to.
But what is it with her and tables, this is the third dance she has had at least one, her paso, this one and QS.

1) I expected Georgia's foxtrot to be magical given the theme and a wow dance but it was just a bit dull really,

2) That said it wasn't helped by the ridiculously dressed backing dancers basically standing around in the background during it. I get they fitted the theme but it looked ridiculous.

3) Nice to see another understated routine from K&K. The whole thing (singing, dance, backing dancers) felt like the equivalent of someone using an airhorn to wake me up after a night out.

4) Jay's dance the best of the night for me.

5) Just felt a slightly off show. Felt like there should've been some barnstormers but they never really came.

1) Jay is very overrated
2) Anita's AT was poor
3) Helen isn't a very good actress for an actress
4) I think Georgia is probably the most exciting dancer to watch this year
5) Katie is a limited dancer, but I'm glad she's had a good run.

1. Even I could spot Anita's poor footwork, I was surprised Len gave her a 9. The weekly references to her lack for previous training have become tiresome for me.

2. Loved Georgia's Foxtrot, I think she's great and Giovanni has done some lively choreography.

3. I was really looking forward to Katie and Antons foxtrot but I found it quite underwhelming.

4. Really enjoyed Kelly's VW, I thinks he will be in the bottom two, but if she goes out tonight, she dones on a really good dance.

5. There was perhaps a bit too much going on in Helen's paso, but I thought she was great.

1. I want to see the celebs dancing and not some extra's prancing around in either stupid costumes or dancing with/in front of/ or obscuring my view of the celebrity and their professional partner. Helen's Paso was ruined because of this.

2. Craig's comments and a mark of 6 for Anita was disgusting.

3. Only one dance captivated me, Jay's Rumba

4. Didn't like Kevin and Kellies' VW, they were in one spot for what seemed an eternity, why get up on the table? A VW should flow around the floor, how could they with a whacking great table and a mock up of a bar taking up a quarter of the floor space, sheer lunacy. Why did the producers muck up a whole show with crap songs that didn't suit ANY of the dances. NO MORE MUSICALS THEMED WEEKS PLEASE

5. On a more lighter note Claudia's Choc Ice's

1) Enjoyed Helens dance. I'm not her biggest fan but love the song and thought strangely for a Spanish dance and a song about the French Revolution it was a good mix.
2) Craig's 6 for Anita - really? For a man who came across so lovely last night on Radio 2s Friday night is music night how can he be so mean?
3) Claudia's choc ice joke sorry I found it a bit pathetic

4) Jodie Prenger - cringeworthy

5) Whilst excited it's nearly the final am also sad there are only 2 shows left. This series seems to have flown by.

Wholeheartedly agree

1) show was too short, all the celebs should be doing 2 dances by now
2) shocked Anita's dance was so bad, she must be in danger
3) Kellie can sell musical theatre, it wasnt "strictly" but it was fun
4) backing dancers dont add anything, are only useful at Blackpool to fill the space
5) turned to jelly watching Jay and Aliona's rumba, never, ever seen such an emotional dance


*sneaky 6th*
thought judges marking seemed spot on tonight, controversial I know

Jodie is very obnoxious.

No way, I love her.

1- Jay and Aliona that was SO beautiful ; Had me teary-eyed

2- Jay returning to its rightful place at the top of the leaderboard

3- Kellie was the 2nd best dance of the night imo but unfortunately I think that she is going to end up in the bottom 2 anyways

4- People who kept saying all week that Jay will be crap and score badly tonight

5- I would love to see Kellie avoid the Dance-off.

1. No, just no, to these extra backing dancers - distracting at best and getting in the way at worst. I actually saw Bruno stand up to try and see round them at one point ( in Georgia's dance I think ).

2. Love Anita and am so impressed at what she has achieved so far, but fear she will be gone tonight if she lands in the DO

3. Is there something in Kevin's contract that says * tables must be included in all routines* ? - how many times is it now, and it never works well

4. Kellie and Helen, too much elaborate routine from the extras and not enough visible action from either of them

5. Seemed like such a short programme tonight, can't believe it's almost over again for another year

1. The theme-ing spoiled what could have been 2 great dances - Katie's and Helen's.
2. Helen's dance was difficult to follow as far too much going on on the floor.
3. I wasn't moved by Jay's dance, not sure why as I think he is great and am sick of hearing negative comments from judges about his facial expressions, but this time they were wowed and I was not.
4. Craig's favouritism of Kellie is now so obvious as he never does with her what he does with the others; i.e never picks holes in things before saying a positive.
5. Craig's 6 for Anita was ridiculous, but the over marking elsewhere meant that she finished in the right place - I did not think the AT was that great and by now Gleb should have spent more time guiding her about foot shaping over thinking up flash choreography.
