Are they not the smallest pro couple - depending on who Janette is paired with.

Smallest would be at the front usually ??

1) sorry, I find Louise totally and utterly blah - she had a great song and the potential to smash it but she didn't - no idea why - she has been the same since week 1 - there is just nothing there

2) Ed on the other hand - totally loving it and showing it - ok, he wasn't technically great BUT he made me smile and I loved watching him - well done Ed!

3) Claudia was fantastic also - absolutely loved that routine and she smashed it - Louise should take notes!

4) dislike Tameka with a passion, sorry

5) bye Naga

Robert Webb did the best Flashdance ever!

I agree with you katt about Louise - there's nothing there - her dances are all becoming the same - boring, beige and dull

1. Didn't like the pro dance to open. To many dance styles squashed into to little time. Should of focused on one or maybe two.

2. Danny's music was butchered and detracted from the dance some. With the correct music from the movie it would have added power to his routine.

3. Anastacia did a comfortable low key VW which didn't really impress and was instantly forgettable.

4. Daisy, Louise, Ore and Claudia were all amazing, very impressed with them all.

5. Greg was seriously over marked considering Nat spent more time in the air than on the ground.

6. Ed's dance was possibly his worst so far and I worry he is already running out of steam and trying to inject jokey performances over technical? I hope not because he obviously can dance as seen in his two previous performances.

7. Judges - Len needs to stop talking over Craig, its rude and should be above him as he is supposed to be head Judge. Equally he needs to treat and judge everyone on the same level. His 'content' remarks change with the wind. One couple puts hardly any content in and he slams them, another does the same and he praises them.

1. Greg and Natalie looked great together, and their dance was lovely.

2. Why does Kevin always have to be right in the front row at the beginning and do the high kick with his partner? I know it must be his "thing" now but i can't stand it.

3. Len made a real issue of cleaning up the mess left by the custard pie-i felt that it took the edge off Claudia and AJ's fab Charleston.

4. Yes Danny and Ore can dance, but they leave me cold for some reason. I prefer someone who is learning more each week and is living their experience and being happy and smiling, which we then see come across in Saturday's show.

5. Ed - Need we say more. He has thrown himself into Strictly, and is embracing it all. He and Katya have great chemistry, and long may it continue!

1) I loved the show and agree it was the best one in a long long time
2) I really enjoyed Laura and Gio's salsa, thought it was under marked
3) I loved the concept of Naga's tango and thought the music arrangement of the mission impossible theme was superb
4) Judge Rinder is hilarious think he's brilliant
5) AJ for so young is so talented, what high quality dancing we have

1. Greg has the most adorable smile! He really is a beautiful man

2. Judge Rinder is slowly starting to grate on me.

3. Danny and Oti's dance was really good, but I can't really connect to them as a partnership.

4. Lesley's dance with Anton was one of my favourites of the night. A really enjoyable watch, well done Lesley. She is so good at getting into character for every dance and her personality shines through on the show, she really does give it her all.

5. I really liked Will and Karen's dance, I could understand that Will was trying to get his point of view across to Len but I did cringe a bit at the whole exchange between them! I found Len a bit rude speaking back.

Wowed by Daisy, Ore, Will, Danny, Judge Rinder and Natalie's lifts
Bored with Naga and Anastasia
Irritated by Claudia (gymnast not presenter) and other judges talking over Craig
Mesmerised by Red Balls
Loved Tameka's Cry-In

1) Loved Greg and Natale , they are like Greek Gods

2) Judge Rinder thought he was going to be the endearing funny guy . Turns out it was Ed Balls !!

3) Tameka is starting to grate now . Tone is down

4 ) Naga has it all , stunningly beautiful , but lacks a joi de vivre

5). Thought Will was terrific I loved the Bollywood bits

1) Karen and Will's forehead makeup made it seem like the tops of their heads were being held on by pop rivets. As did Will's conversational skills.

2) Greg Rutherford still dances like he's pooped himself. I tried to bet a fiver that Len will say "CHAMPION JUMPER? MORE LIKE PANTALOON DUMPER!" before the end of the series but the guy at Ladbrokes just laughed at me.

3) Advertising has so thoroughly ruined me that I was astonished when Louise was showered by glitter and not by IKEA brand plastic tableware.

4) When nobody made a glaringly obvious POLITICAL SPIN joke about Balls revolving Katja 500 times I actually fainted from shock.

5) Aljaz's Cockney accent was actually about 50x better than Dick Van Dyke's. But his murder diagnosing skills are about 50x worse so it's a tie in my eyes.

1) FABULOUS show tonight, possibly the best movie week on Strictly in a long time.
2) Natalie looked absolutely stunning tonight, so so beautiful.
3) Ed was sensational! I was screaming laughing, he is exactly what Strictly is about.
4) Will really annoyed me, as did Ore. Can't take to them.
5) Claudia and AJ were my favourites as Brucie would say. Absolutely love that pairing and AJ is a great addition.

Roll on next week!!

1. This was a very enjoyable week although several celebrities left me feeling cold. Greg,Naga,Laura,Tameka and Louise.
2. Judge Rinder doesn't seem to like being outcamped by Ed Balls. Yet again.
3.Will seems to be one of the favoured ones. Apart from with Len who was spot on.
4.Danny and Ore are too good for everyone else at the moment. Although Claudia tried her best and had a dance that showed off her strengths.
5. Too many standing ovations by the audience, its starting to become meaningless.

1) I'm still not sold on Danny off the dance floor, but on it he's brilliant. A total ringer of course, but that doesn't bother me as much this year because he's far from the only one!

2) Greg and Natalie's dance was really good, and I'm seriously impressed by how well he's embraced not just the dancing but also the acting.

3) I love Robert/Judge Rinder, but this week's dance wasn't his finest and I gave the vote I'd planned to give to him to Ore instead.

4) Ed is still my favourite. I love how he just really throws himself into it and how he takes it seriously and does his best.

5) Ore and Joanna's dance was beautiful, and also enjoyable. I hadn't planned to vote for them at this stage, because he's a good dancer who will probably stay longer than my other favourites like Ed and Greg, but I loved the dance so much that I gave them a vote anyway.

Brilliant night, haven't enjoyed an SCD programme quite as much for ages. Not really a bad performance from anyone, even the poorer dancers put in truly entertaining routines and there were some absolutely stunning ones.

Ed Balls was more Jim Carey than Jim Carey is.

If it ain't Jennifer Beales then only Robert Webb can Flashdance as well.

Ore did well with a lovely routine and managed to mostly avoid the Gene cliches.

Disappointed Brendan wasn't more sparkly.

1. What a fantastic show, so many great performances

2. Think Naga, Louise and Rinder were the only ones likely to be in the bottom two tonight......disappointed with their dances.

3. Lesley was awesome

4. Totally loved 'Cloudier', Greg, Will, Ed and Ore

5. Can't wait to see next week 💙💜

1. Ore was fabulous. Think his emotion released by the dance may make him a better performer over the weeks too.

2. Claudia's Charleston was great, energetic, neat, full of energy, not too razzle dazzle. They looked like kids doing it for non-ironic fun. It looked joyous!

3. Loved Will's bollywood mix

4. Claudia's cream cake joke and Tameka's cry-in were genuinely funny (to me)

5. Credit to the band and the singers. They're fabulous

1. Nat & Greg are just brilliant together

2. Good on Will for speaking up to grumpy Len I'm sick of nodding celeb's I loved their routine .. how Len think's he was the same as Naga I will never know.

3. Gorka, Oksana and Katya are brilliant new pro's

4. Claudia W is brilliant

5. Ed Balls is making my Saturday night

Lots of tied scores. There may be trouble ahead...

1. I agree that Danny's music was changed almost out of recognition, but he was great.
2. Will's dancing was excellent but the Bollywood theme wasn't.
3. I loved Claudia and AJ's Charleston.
4. Not keen on Tameka's dance at all.
5. Poor Naga, things seem to be against her all the time.

1) I still don't get all the fuss about Louise

2) Tameka is sooooo annoying

3) Rob Rinder and Ed Balls are fun and need to stay so Craig has someone to vent his Queen of Spleen persona on

4) Continue to be impressed by Greg & Ore

5) Has Tess dropped a lot of her accent...seems to pronounce "dancing" as "daarncing" instead of "duncing" these days

1: I LOVED THE SHOW!
2. I didn't like Will answering Len back, if it was me, I'd have knocked a point off.
3. Ed Balls is hilarious!
4. Ore's improvement this week!
5. I gave my first 10 of the Series, to Claudia and AJ!

Naga - please put us out of your misery
Rinder - why did you come dressed as Bruno's brother?
Louise - darling, Mr. Webb needs to teach you a thing or three
Will - ssshhhh!
Oti - your choreography is stunning

1. Scoring was very fair this week
2. Danny and Claudia deserved to be at the top of the LB, best dances of the night.
3. Greg is improving but even if he weren't he's so damned sexy that I would forgive him anything
4. Ed Balls. What can I say? Love that he's thrown himself into this and I wish he'd shown this rambunctious side of his personality when he was in politics. But I note that, behind the 'joke act set-up' that his timing is perfect and that he is very light on his feet - I predict that we may see a surprising improvement in the next couple of weeks. Gets my vote.
5. Kevin's fixed grin when his scores came in was highly amusing, particularly as his eyes give it away every time. Presumably the judges forgot the memo from Clifton Family Ltd about their expectations of their boy's position on the leader board each week. Still, him being front and centre every group dance or gathering and the upcoming annual Kevin Clifton Week in Blackpool will eventually remind those irritating, free-thinking bastards of their 'loyalties'.

With all the tied scores we could get a shock do for somebody tonight

I fear for Naga

Ed Balls is the best comedy contestant for a while but nice to see Katya giving him proper routines

I get the feeling like last year that it's already decided and Danny has it won already as Jay did last year


If Jo can come up with routines like that and Ore can dance them I can see them getting to the final.
