I am also amazed by the dances for her and the song choices. Sadly it will be ....

It will just make people more determined to get her into the final.

I think she can do it.

Maybe they'll salsa-fy it like they did with Kellie and Kevin. Odd/tricky choice.

All the other choices are good though.

Who is gunning for her?

VW doesn't often score highly, sometimes it can be pretty average.

Latin hard? For who? It depends who you are and how good you are. For Jay he scores highly in latin, a samba would have suited him down to a tee compared to a charleston.

Everyone has to skip something. It's not a conspiracy.

Looking forward to GG AT... Love the music; good proper AT song. I think that they will score very high with this. I am still desperate for anyone to give me a REALLY GOOD AT this series and I think that they will. I have said it before and I am saying it again, I love the AT so much so I am really excited to see this.

I loved this routine by AT experts Miriam and Leonardo to the song they are dancing to

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvbP0ikO1xk

I love Bryan Adams songs so I am ecstatic with that song choice for Jay and Aliona.
I love the Corrs ( so underrated ) and I've always wanted someone on the show to dance to their song and RUNAWAY is one of my favorite songs of them so pleased for Team GG.

I like Katie's charleston song better but Jay's song makes sense for him and Katie's song makes sense for her.

Love BOTH Kellie's song choices; especially her rumba's song. This COULD be a strong week for her.

I love Anita's salsa song but I'm not sure it is really appropriate for a Salsa...Sinetra is PERFECT for a foxtrot.

Everyone has great songs this week imo.....it will be a CRACKING semi-final .

Yes, I agree, looking forward to GG's AT, simply because their tango was so amazing, even despite the god awful song given to . They still managed to perform an excellent tango and now she has had more weeks built up on technique, it should be a good one.

She has really come into her own lately, Ian showing that foxtrot, her hold was stunning.

When I link on the Strictly website it shows G and G dancing VW to the Corrs and Cha Cha to a track to be confirmed and yet everyone is talking about an AT?

Is this just me?

They played Tanguera on ITT and confirmed an A/T, I think? Assume they planned a cha and then decided to ditch it given it's pretty dull compared to an A/T and always looks a little odd at this stage.

GG may have ditched the AT - too much pressure to learn this week?

Oh, what a let-down. I wish they'd ditch the VW, and give her AT and Cha-Cha.

All the couples have got at least one good song; Katie has the best two. I love the track Jay has for his charleston.

The chacha no matter how good it is, is a bit dull at this stage imo. AT is a much better choice; crowd pleaser, traditional song...you cant go wrong with that. Considering especially that they were in the bottom 2 last week, if I was them I would choose the AT; it will get you votes.

As the Tuesday ITT is filmed on Monday I think the update on the BBC website is more likely to be right.

I cut and paste the song/dance list from that exact same page earlier - at 18:58 - when it listed an AT. I had been monitoring the page waiting for the list to appear. It has since been changed to list a Cha Cha to music TBC!! Interesting!!!

That's a good point the BBC website will up to date

It's incredible music and a few have wondered what they'll do about the vocal. They'd get away with a string section added to the band, which could be well used for the other numbers as well. I know Jennifer F mentioned that in competition a lot of these tracks are instrumentals and I can understand that in those situations they'd probably have to be, but I hope having given them this music they'll find a way to do it justice. A great voice could turn this from something very good to something truly exceptional,assuming the dancing is up to the mark.

LoracShakti is right - the website definitely said Viennese/Argentine earlier.

I would have said the obvious choice would be to do cha-cha and Argentine tango - she's already done half a Viennese routine in her American smooth, and she then wouldn't be doing the same ballroom as Jay, so she'd be more memorable. Hmm.

Are they really trying to even things out? Once again Jay gets some bloody awful music choices in comparison to the girls! Be fair, there is only one bloke left standing!!

Could he include table dancing , how's your father and have a banana moves?

Have a funny feeling Kellie will surprise everyone with her rumba - but not quite sure in what way!
