I do not think it is right to dislike him because he is popular, either. I think they are both wonderful dancers, Danny is probably slightly technically better (in my opinion) but I think Ore is warmer. And sometimes it is about how a person moves you rather than technical ability. I do like them both, but for different reasons. And yes, I'll I find Ore rather attractive, also but that is irrelevant to the dancing There are a few I really like this year, including Claudia.”

think it is just that he is emotional and dont think the tears are fake, saw pictures of his wedding earlier this week (he had tears in most of them) one in particular with his best man and bride laughing at him for the tears - so they are not something for the show as some seem to think

I read about him crying all day at his wedding, which I thought was sweet. And to me, there's nothing wrong with a man showing emotion. You cannot please everyone, it seems!

I am Irish . Never heard of Ore before . He can dance and his jive was fab but can't help feeling he is less than genuine and is very aware and calculated .Maybe I am wrong of course as I dont know him

It can be irritating , but once you realise it seems genuine then it becomes less irritating and just part of his real persona . He's just soppy . Better than being a hard faced strategist putting on a vulnerable facade to tug the mommy heart strings .

I think the show is suffering a bit from both pros and contestants getting ill/injured this year. Otherwise it is business as usual with over the top audience reactions, both under and over marking by the judges and mixed views on DS.

I really hope this week puts to bed all the "the best line up ever" comments. As in previous years there are a few good dancers, a couple of potentials and some cannon fodder plus of course Ed Balls who is a category all to himself. ”

I don't know actually - there are probably slow weeks in most competitions. A lot of people got dances that didn't suit them and the stars got slow dances that it can be difficult to make interesting. There aren't many people who've really sold a rhumba - Rachel Stevens is one of the few exceptions and even less of those who have are male. Just a bad allignment of factors probably a few people are lurgified and one contestant is missing.

They're also never going to make Halloween a slow week - I think, trying to go back in time in my head, that quite a few week four's have been quite heavy going as they're more focused on ensuring that the couples will have something performance driven for Halloween. No Paso tonight, for example; I'm sure that will be back next week.
