I will liaise with Arnostae about how to post them somewhere you can see them.

The VW to a David Gray number and the rumba to a Leona Lewis number were beautiful. Those lovely, lovely arms.

The Q & A was a hoot.

The audience just loved Jay and Aliona.

Sounds like you had a great time jayfan.
Can hardly wait to see your vid. Bless you for thinking of the rest of us.

Oh my giddy aunt - four tens for Danny and Oti. Now I'm a big fan of theirs, but their Charleston wasn't worth that. I watched on YT and at first thought it was a rehearsal with people setting up tables in the background - but it was other dancers who only served to distract, they weren't part of the choreography in the way that they were last year with J&A's salsa. It was even worse than G & G's dancing tea service.

The marking tonight is generally bonkers. The more I see of this year's Strictly, the clearer it becomes just what an exceptional couple J&A make. I really hope I see them dancing together again, I need some more magic!

I completely forgot it was strictly today... but yes read Danny and Oti received full marks quickly rushed off to see it's utter perfection, got there and was pretty much disappointed I just didn't like the flow of it and at times well most of the time I thought oti's hand placements were a bit flappy, I remember her dancing with tom chambers she did the charleston with him too and I didn't like that Charleston at all. At times I thought Danny actually outdanced her. But in no way is that a 40 dance

I thought nothing was worth a mark of 10. Maybe the magnitude of overhyped flippin' Blackpool intimidated them or the routines were just not very good or - well, I won't be watching any of the dances back again. Yes, all this just points up how superspecial J and A were and still are.

Judges still dishonestly protecting their faves for the final...

Did James Jordan not like Jay? Just seen on his Twitter that he thinks Danny 'blows Jay out of the water'. I guess Danny might well be the better dancer, but engagement and watchability? No. No way. I much preferred Jay's Charleston even with the 'one way of doing the lift' and thought it had an excitement Danny's lacked (although I really don't mind Danny's 40 in the context of the whole evening's marking and do think he's very good).

No, James was never keen on Jay.

He doesn't like anyone who isn't him! I think he's a sour, self-centred professional winger, that being the polite version....

Danny's a competent hoofer, and I like to see him dance with Oti, but he doesn't have the unique style and elegance of Jay, and certainly doesn't give me the goosebumps with his beautiful lines the way Jay does. Everything I see this year just serves to illustrate just how special Jay is.

No... or lyricism, grace, emotion, sensitivity, fragility, sympathy with dances, natural elegance, vulnerability, tenderness...

And he's trying his level best to sell Ola's calendars for next year.
So he tweets something controversial about Jay in the hope Jay fans will swoop on him and get his tweets read by more and more people.

And isn't he going back in CBB or something. Raising his own profile again .

He disliked J because of his training (and possibly his personality didn't suit his tastes either), but seems perfectly happy to ignore Danny's even more extensive training and experience (he was also perfectly happy to ignore previous training with his own partners).

Still, he made a lot of remarks re tonight's show that I 100% agreed with.

Yes all a bit underwhelming really. Need to channel our inner Benidorm

I always got the impression that he didn't like Jay because he had been paired with Ali. Now if he had been paired with Ola his view of Jay would have been very different.

I did find myself agreeing with a lot of what he said about tonight's dances though (sorry!) which is why the Jay comment jarred as there seemed no context for it. Ah well. No accounting for taste and all that. I hated both the VW and paso choreo tonight (and salsa, goes without saying!) but both getting lots of plaudits. Each to their own...

Hello Hannah, haven't said hello for a while to you. Hope everything ok and Himself isn't too upset at the thought of not seeing Ali dance again for a while

Failed lurk at the stage door.
Fantastic and very moving VW and rumba. I shed a tear.
Brilliant Q&A which I recorded.
Jay was very moved tonight and a bit overwhelmed by the support I think .
Great evening.
More to follow....

Jay is 12 years younger that James and will be starring in the West End. James is ... not.

Thank you. I would have been crying with him and you.

I read that J sang. 😍

When asked to describe his Strictly experience in one word he said ' Perfect'.
And so say all of us.

Absolutely! But the thought of that eventuality is truly horrible....Not Jay at all.
