2 Balls and 1 Rinder

All my 3 votes went to Judge Rinder this week. I was going to split them between Judge, Ed and Greg until I saw how low down Robert and Oksana were on the leaderboard.

This is actually the first time I have voted in the early stages, don't usually bother until we get to the business end of the 'competition'.

I used all three online votes for Ed Balls

Last week his waltz was fantastic for a complete beginner and just loved his charleston this week, inspired choreography! Loved Tameka's too

The standard this week really dropped for most of the couples, only one week rehearsal time and it really showed, just makes you realize how damned hard they all work.

Think Melvin, Lesley and Naga could be in trouble and end up in the DDO

Fingers crossed for a brilliant 'Movie Week' next Saturday

Against all expectations, I voted twice for Ed and once for Greg. Greg got the vote because Natalie (the goddess) just turning up deserves a vote.

Danny, Ed, and Louise. I almost voted for Tameka instead of Louise.

I went for Danny, Rinder and Tameka.

NGL part of the reason for the last one was because I want to see more of Gorka...

Because these were the 3 performances I enjoyed most. There may be better dancers, but at this stage of the competition, I don't think it should just be about that. The effort and improvement shown by Ed meant I nearly gave him all three votes, but I loved Claudia's waltz and the Judge was much more endearing this week, so I'd like to see more of them too.

Me: Daisy.

Ditto!

Ed, for effort and entertainment value
Judge Rinder, ditto
Greg, for the Goddess Natalie

In our house, we voted:

2 for Ed
1 for Anastacia
1 for Claudia
1 for Judge Rinder
1 for Laura

Louise, Laura and Daisy.

Danny is a terrific dancer but I like the VW to be a bit more flowing than that.

Ed, Daisy and Laura.

Ed x2
Danny

Daisy and the gorgeous Aljaz got all my votes.

We were out and didn't get back until 2/3 of the way through, so I had to vote without having seen all the dances & I voted for my current favourites:

1 vote for Robert Rinder
2 votes for Ed Balls

Having watched the show through I am happy with that vote. I loved Louise's dance but would have considered her safe on judge's scores.

Ed, Tameka and Judge Rinder.

Not the best dancers by far but, all three seem to have embraced the spirit of dance and look to be really enjoying themselves.

Robert
Ore although I'm not keen on Joanne
