I went to my art group this morning and we were talking about Strictly (as you do) and it was the general consensus that they were routing for Danny and Oti! Most hated Ore's facial hair and wig and thought it was nothing to do with the dance.
, so maybe Ore drew the short straw on that one. And a lot of people didn't seem to get the point of the song either, but it must have been kids wanting sweets when they go trick or treating. Just shows that that American tradition is still a pretty new one in this country. |

I didn't ask, but I doubt it as they are not so committed as I am! Still, you never know!
![]() Seems like it was not going to be their night. Just seen the behind the scenes bit on ITT and Danny was having some issues in rehearsal with the rubber band. I'm looking forward to seeing which dance they have next week. |

Looking forward to finding out the dance and song Danny and Oti are dancing to tomorrow. Hoping for either Charleston or Jive.
Saturday might not have been perfect but think they will both bounce back this weekend. Loved what Danny said on result's show about the foxtrot,there are worst things in the world than him messing up his dance. I do find it strange that it takes something like Danny to make a mistake to get people to like him. I do think people have the wrong impression of him, from the very beginning I loved Danny as he was humble, very talented and trying to be the best dancer he can be. |

I liked what Neil Jones said about their dance on ITT! He really loved it. Brendan also commented that Danny's quick step was superb and he thinks they should win.

I'd never heard of Danny before the launch show (though I've now realised he was in the ensemble both times I went to see Wicked years ago) but liked him immediately. I saw a guy who was excited and enthusiastic, talented, and ready to learn/work hard - all things I respect and look for in my favourites. I think a lot of people though saw a very attractive guy who was a good dancer with stage school experience and made a lot of assumptions about what he must be like e.g. smug, arrogant. It's been interesting and enjoyable to watch him come out every week and disprove their original ideas of him.
) I've supported many a lady before, but I can't help it......I'm a sucker for a man that can dance.![]() ![]() I feel it will be a Charleston or Jive as nobody else seems to have either of these this weekend. Judge Rinder has already done both, Daisy should have ballroom.......we've got Salsa, Samba and Paso................should find out tomorrow anyway. |

I'd never heard of Danny before either. I don't watch the soaps, so he was completely a new face to me. I wasn't really expecting to like him. I did have a few pre-conceived ideas of what he would be like. I honestly thought Ore would appeal to me as a dancer, but I was totally wowed by Danny and Oti's cha cha, I liked his first steps video, his partnership with Oti and in general his dances are the ones I watch back,( some of them loads of times!!!

Danny has done the paso - as Zorro!

Sorry Gill..............didn't make myself clear there. (Couldn't possibly forget that wonderful Paso. One of the best I've seen!!

No need to apologise. I understand what you mean now.

Hollyoaks is my guilty secret so knew Danny from that. Once he was paired with Oti I knew I'd found the couple I wanted to root for.
Once I'd seen them dance I was sold. Got quite frustrated by the arrogant/beige comments early on, as like others here, I just saw a guy who was loving learning to dance different styles, who seemed very gentle + genuine. Loving Oti showing what she can do with a capable celeb too |

To be perfectly honest I don't remember who was Gavroche when we saw it, I only know that we did go during the Southampton run, which is when he was in it. I expect there were several boys playing the role during the 10 week run.

, so maybe Ore drew the short straw on that one.
