Yep, that's how I see it too. If Louise can let go, enjoy the dance and nail the technique I think a score of 40 for her samba is very likely. However, Craig may have decided he's reached his quota of one ten paddle for samba per series. To get a ten from Craig she'll have to give it absolutely everything.
It's taken 14 series for someone to get a perfect score for a Samba and now it looks like two will come at once. Funny what a bit of authentic music can do.

According to Kevin on Twitter they've been doing 13 hour days all week so she's clearly working hard to perfect something she's not necessarily confident in so fair do's to her.

Even if Louise and Kevin get a 40 for their Samba, it doesn't take away from the fact that Danny and Oti were the first to get a 40 for a Samba.

Rumba
Foxtrot
Jive

Hi all!

Never posted on an appreciation thread before but since Danny and Oti have been my favourite partnership in ages I thought why not.

Just caught up with tonight's ITT and FINALLY the guests actually took interest in Danny. Ellie Simmonds saying she'd like him to win and Jason and the other lady paying him compliments too.

Can't wait for the AS on Saturday - it's looking lovely from what we've seen from training. Hoping the Salsa goes just as well as his Samba (though that may be a tall order!)

Welcome to the thread!

Yes, it was nice to hear someone say that they wanted Danny to win.

I'm looking forward to their dances.

I have to agree, but can't believe that Gabby praised Danny to the hilt then picked Louise to win!!!

I do hope we are not going to have another 40 scoring Samba. Louise has got to really pull something out of the bag to get that score. If she does and her's is not as intense as Danny's was I will think there is some funny business going on!

The Salsa is so fast and really working Danny to the max. He will be shattered after that and all the lifts.

On Thursday I was browsing the channels and found the Ellen Generes show. They do a bit where the audience sing a popular song and this week it was Cake By the Ocean! People sing what they thing it is and there were some hilarious versions. It cheered me up as I wasn't feeling well.

Sorry to hear you weren't well Gill, hope you're feeling better now.
I seem to hear 'cake by the ocean' once a week now, odd I didn't notice before Doti danced to it lol

Hi Danielle, good to have you with us. It gets a bit 'difficult' downstairs at times, much safer in here.
Tho I'm content lurking in the NAT thread, I'm neither quick or witty enough to contribute

Posting wise, yep I'm a newbie - but I lurk on these forums pretty much daily. Just can't keep my love in for them anymore it seems. Perhaps my favourite partnership now :O

Let it all out, you will feel great.

I hope that you will be voting for them if you can!

They are definitely my favourites, this year.

I love this and agree with all of it.

I hope Danny and Oti go out and have the best time tonight. No matter what happens, their time dancing together is drawing to a close - - and so I hope they go out there and just enjoy themselves. I'm excited for both their dances, especially the AS, and am ready to love every minute of their dancing tonight, no matter the scores or the votes.

I'm assuming that Oti is doing the tour so they have that to look forward to.

I'll throw an extra couple their way in your absence

Excited and nervous in equal measures. Two dances that could be brilliant but of course learning two dances is always a big ask. Just hope they go out, enjoy them & feel they did themselves justice, which I'm sure they will

All of this. I'm really looking forward to seeing both dances but feel nervous for them too. I hope Danny can conquer any anxiety and they can just really go for them and enjoy both dances with big happy grins on their faces! Excited happy Oti is a joy that has lit up this years SCD and Danny's more quiet pleasure in that joy is what I'm hoping to see at the end of the night. (Oti) (Danny) I hope!
