Wow Daisy put so much character in to that Paso, loved the flamenco!

They looked incredible

A little disappointed with 33, hoped for another 9 or two. Will be voting!
I really enjoyed her Paso and was disappointed in the lack of 9s (especially seen as at least two other contestants got 9s, for routine's that I didn't think were any better than Daisy's)

I switched my votes from Ed to Daisy this week

Well that was ridiculous that they were in the dance off again - it was in my top 3 dances of last night! I feel particularly bad for Daisy as she clearly absolutely hates the dance off, but she's always extremely gracious about being there. A little moment I liked in her ITT interview was when she talked of how she felt really guilty and responsible for Lesley going - it's a sign of a kind and thoughtful person I think.

More than likely she'll have a ballroom next week, so I'm expecting a strong performance that will see her through without needing to get there via the dance off!

Poor Daisy. I hope she keeps her confidence. Poor Aljaz too; 3/4 Halloweens he's been in the DO with his partner. According to last night's mole on the spoiler thread, Daisy was very upset

You could tell that the other celebs were upset to lose Anastacia. Sad evening.

Ho, hum.

Phew. That was an emotional results show!

Hard to watch her initial reaction but I am so impressed again with Daisy. A second tough dance to have in the dance off, requiring such a strong performance when feeling vulnerable. Aljaz a brilliant support as always, liked Brendan's show of encouragement for her too.

I hope Daisy knows she has support, good to hear you voted star, fingers crossed for more of a bounce in votes next week

I'm hoping for Ballroom next week Brian My preference would be either the Foxtrot or Viennese Waltz so Daisy can enjoy a softer, romantic dance and draw on memories of her Unforgettable Waltz to regain some confidence.

Team HappyDayz have made Week 7, that really is something for Daisy to be proud of.

Hi Maggie, feel for them both but liked that Daisy said she's happy she gets to fight another week with Aljaz. Hoping for an enjoyable Ballroom for her.

I'm sure Janette as well as Aljaz will be fantastic supporting Daisy and boosting her confidence and Laura is a good friend.

I don't doubt that but it must be so hard to not take the result as dislike from the public. Daisy seems to me sincere and I love her breathy voice. I want her to have break from the DO. Anastacia and Jamelia last year both had breaks. I cancel how much clag might settle in a celeb in the bottom two more than one week at a time.

But onwards we go. I would love a VW next week. Dreamy and fast. Or a tango, which on the back of the paso might benefit her.

Do feel for Daisy. It must be soul destroying but hopefully with the right dance next week she should be okay.

It's only a matter of time before a male is in the dance off - surely

I really hope being in the DO for a second week doesn't knock Daisy down too much; she's amazing and I loved her paso.

Hopefully next week they'll smash it with a wonderful ballroom number and she'll be able to get her confidence back.

I shall be voting for Daisy every week from now on.

I do love (watching) Ed but it is a dancing competition and I'd hate to lose Daisy over a lesser dancer

Haven't watched tonight's dance off but I feel for poor Daisy

Foxtrot is pretty difficult. I think a VW could be the best option or a nice AS?

Yes please let it be a VW or a AS - she needs a high score next week to give her a boost !

Daisy & Aljaz - thought she gave a nice effort to a dance that may have been a bit of an outlier for her personality. Think she tried her very best to give shaping to her arms and to project with her body. Was worried at the top as her flamenco fingers seemed a bit timid/stiff. Think she could stand a bit prouder and challenge Aljaz a bit more with her athleticism/aggression. But think its nice that she tackled a dance that forced her a bit out of her comfort zone and look forward to her next dance.

Beautiful

Is Janette there as well? I love how friendly she is with Daisy. Exactly the right way to handle that Strictly curse rumour rubbish, ignore it

Yes Janette has tweeted she's there but haven't seen any pics of her yet, will post when I do.

Love that she and Daisy get on so well.

Aww lovely, thanks

Shame Melvin went out so soon as I'd have liked to have seen his progress but I suppose someone has to be first.

Daisy is my favourite this series - I liked her and Will initially, as well as Judge Rinder (who I still like too). She's so lovely. I haven't voted yet this series but hopefully will this weekend. I really hope she's not too despondent at being in the dance off again.

It's a bit shoddy that she's apparently got another latin dance, after 3 in a row

EDIT - ok, I'm not sure now. I thought I read that she said at the Pride of Britain awards last night that she was doing a samba, but I was just looking at wikipedia (to check that I was right and that she had done 3 latin in a row) and it says she's doing a viennese waltz. I guess we'll find out on ITT. Fingers crossed for the VW!

EDIT 2 - just seen it's been confirmed a VW! Yay! Much better. Maybe the person who said that she said she was doing a samba was actually talking about Laura?

The dances and song choices are posted on the MF and Daisy is doing a VW, which, if true, is brilliant news.

Thrilled they have Viennese Waltz

Back to Ballroom, in hold, can draw on memories of her Unforgettable Waltz and Daisy just said she can't wait to dress as a Princess. Perfect for her confidence.

Daisy & Aljaz will be dancing their Viennese Waltz to 'Daisy Bell' by Harry Dacre.

I had this down as one of her song choices before the series began, my Mum used to sing this to us I love it.

Here is a beautiful version I found on Youtube.

It is a good song for a VW, but it's getting very competitive now, and I don't think it gives much scope to generate romantic chemistry.
