😂😂😂 I was pleased for Kellie. She acted it brilliantly

Georgia and Giovanni, fun, delicate, sweet

large gap

Jay and Aliona, meh

huge gap

umm

Katie and Anton



Helen and Aljaz what a miserable week
Anita and Gleb, oh dear

Kellie and Kevin ghastly

1) Katie & Anton (that deserved at least one 10 ).

2) Kellie & Kevin (as did that ).

3) Jay & Aliona (as did that; just not 3 ).

4) Anita & Gleb (would've been higher if Gleb was totally shirtless, or if the choreography didn't expose every single weakness Anita had...).

5) Georgia & Giovanni (...dishwater dull).

6) Helen & Aljaz (just... a mess, from start to finish ).

After watching the show back a second time, my opinion of tonight's dances changed quite a bit. I thought Georgia, Kellie and Anita were all slightly worse than I remembered them to be. Helen was ok but the dance clearly wasn't suited to her. I loved Katie and found that I loved Jay's more second time around (though I think maybe deserved 9's not 10's)

Don't even know where to place Helen's Paso. Don't think it was great. The facial expressions were horrendous.

Jay & Aliona - Rumba (and I hate the rumba, the last male one I liked was Colin Jackson in S3)

Kellie & Kevin - Viennese Waltz (despite me utterly despising Oliver! the musical, I enjoyed their whole dance and staging but it was a tad more VW AS than straight up VW)

Katie & Anton - Foxtrot (elegant and a great song)

Georgia & Giovanni - Foxtrot (sickly sweet and distracting background dancers but nicely performed)

Helen & Aljaz - Paso Doble (more because I love the song as Helen's facial expressions were mind-boggling and seriously distracting)

Anita & Gleb - Argentine Tango (great song - for a Ballroom Tango, felt sorry for Anita as it showed up her poor feet but she gave a great dramatic performance).

1) Georgia & Giovanni
2) Anita & Gleb
3) Jay & Aliona

4) Kellie & Kevin
5) Helen & Aljaz
6) Katie & Anton

I usually like to watch twice as I can see things differently on a second viewing. I missed the show while it was on last night but have since seen it. On first impressions I didn't think anyone had a standout routine.

Most enjoyable (I always base my opinions on this rather than technique which I know nothing about)

Kellie & Kevin - Not usually my favourites but I quite enjoyed this one.

Georgia & Giovanni - I always enjoy watching these two. A little twee this week but with Beauty & Beast theme I didn't expect anything else.

Helen & Aljaz - Big production which overshadowed the actual dance itself. So much going on. I like these two

Anita & Gleb - My favourites for this series. Not their best but they're still the most interesting pairing and the ones I look forward to most each week.

Jay & Aliona - Baffled with that score of 39. I'm not getting what others see in Jay though tbh

Katie & Antib - Expected this to be better. Katie is the worst left on the show now and while her ballroom was great early in the series, I'm not such a fan anymore.

Anita & Gleb.

Going by my own opinion...

1st) Anita & Gleb
2nd) Helen & Aljaz
3rd) Kellie & Kevin
4th) Georgia & Giovanni (only for the dancing teapot)
5th) Jay & Aliona
6th) Katie & Anton

The bottom three could've been in any order though.

Jay : so beautiful, touching, emotional, romantic. .with fab rumba content.



Kellie . Her sheer enjoyment of this dance was so contagious and beautiful to see. I lovedddddd it

Katie . I think that she had the best foxtrot of the night. I like Georgia but props and backing dancers really spoiled this dance for me.

Georgia

Anita.

Helen.

Kellie & Kevin...for sheer fun & entertainment value!!
Georgia & Giovanni... Gorgeous dance but REALLY didn't need those 'extras' prancing about!!
Anita &Gleb...enjoyed watching it as always wih these two, wasn't really watching her footwork but enjoying the 'theatre' of it!!
Katie & Anton...they just don't wow me, but pleasant enough!!
Jay & Aliona..again pleasant enough but I wasn't expecting that reaction from the judges, didn't really do it for me this week!!
Helen & Aljaz...just didn't suit her at all!! The paso was never going to be her dance imo!!
