They look great! Really sorry I'm going to miss it tonight but keeping everything crossed they get through to next week...and really that they just have a ball! Enjoy everyone
![]() (OT went to the Capuchin Catacombs yesterday where they have about 8,000 mummified bodies and skeletons attached to the walls. Not for the faint-hearted. Think I'll give Hallowe'en a miss this year... ) ![]() Now there's an idea for a Strictly Halloween VT location for next year ![]() Quote:
Evening everyone. Are we all 'exaited' for tonight?
![]() Really happy with that makeup for Gio and Laura if that is the finished result Ochre. You can still tell who they are - always helps! Laura's dress looks really stunning from the bodice part. Mr and Mrs Death do make a handsome couple. ![]() Everyone looked pretty good in training apart from Ed and Greg.. Louise and Ore looked great and Danny was shaping up well. I don't know how on earth Brendan is going to Jive with his lungs in recovery mode but wishing him well tonight. Laura & Gio both look brilliant and her dress is gorgeous. Love the crimped hair

I think ITT said that Alijaz is wearing traditional Paso costume so they will both look very stylish tonight - it really helps..
Having just seen Ore and Joanne's makeup and costumes - YIKES. |

Or maybe Ed will push her to the pub in the wheelbarrow if her foot is too sore after dancing!
![]() I hope that Ed gets his one night dad-dancing at the Camden nightclubs with Da Kidz of Strictly.. and I also hope there are pictures....

Oh I love their costumes! Daisy's is awesome too.
The costumes and make up are one of my favourite parts of Halloween week.

WOW, absolutely brilliant!
Such an improvement from the training clips! Their best dance by far, incredible chemistry and I loved Laura's reaction to their very well deserved 9s. Great to see such sensible shoes, too

Great dance but even with that score they are still getting all my votes not convinced they are totally safe some sympathy votes to later couples may do them in

Some great comments on Twitter tonight, probably the most support I've seen for them.
I agree that they are not that safe even with their position on the leaderboard but I do think if they end up in the DO they have a pretty good chance of surviving. So happy with how it went - can't wait to watch it again. |

Now THIS is a Tango. Bags of fire and passion, great kicks from Laura, a few balance issues but mostly total Tango filth. Really enjoyed that, also excellent hair crimping from Laura there.

OMG they smashed it! LOVED IT! Used all my votes on them. They'd better be safe, it was the best dance of the night!
How does Gio look good 'dead' though? That suit, brings back memories of my childhood Gomez Adams crush! |

I've just watched it again - loved that little ripple of the shoulder.
I'm not as worried as I usually am, although I think the bottom two is hard to call again and I really can't predict who will be in it - I would say Ed is the only one 100% safe. However I'm just so pleased that they came back with such a bang and surpassed all our expectations! |

Great comeback for Laura this evening, and I'm delighted for her that she is joint top of the leaderboard. I do think the two best dances tonight were where they belonged!
![]() Hopefully it will mean safety from the dance off, as she looked in agony as she and Giovanni went up the stairs to talk to Claudia. |

Really pleased for Laura tonight. I will admit, until now they've been a little forgettable for me (though I liked their QS), but this was a great way to come back. First time I've voted for them!

But think she will be OK with that lovely red dress ... it will be clear who is dancing I am sure.
