I was sad at her performance tonight. It looked like Anton was dragging her around. I hope she does make it to Blackpool though. How many weeks away is that?
Yes it's certainly going to be a test of their fan base. Any dance primarily in hold is going to be more of a problem due to the height difference but I do hope she can squeeze through this week.
Based on tonight's performance she should beat Ed and Greg if they are in the dance off,
If she considerably lifts her game and doesn't cling to Anton like a crab then she might also see off Anastacia if she ends up there which is less likely this week.

But look how often the joke dancer is kept in over good dancers. Its not impossible she will be in the bottom two, it was her worse dance so far I feel. I hope she stays in at least to Blackpool because she can dance well, this was just a hiccup.
I voted for Lesley as I felt she had rubbish music and felt bad she had an off week. I think she is capable of more so I want her to stay to see this. Last weeks was so good.

I think that would have looked a lot better if Lesley was six inches taller.

Agree with you, far from it, the song is fantastic.
I think it will be Lesley vs Ed in the DO...and its THAT lift that will be the difference. If Ed can get that right he will stay and Lesley will be saying her goodbyes.
Greg's will be more seen as a blip and will avoid the DO on popularity alone.

It will be a crime if she didn't, bearing in mind that even the awful Widdy made it to Blackpool! And Lesley is far, far better.

Agree. I thought she looked sad tonight, the height difference and that awful frock just made it look like Anton was dragging her around. So different to last week when she stood out for all the right reasons. I gave her one of my votes. Take shorter steps Anton, give her a chance to keep up.

Judy Murray made it to Blackpool too and Lesley is better than her too!
I'm worried too. She might survive because of Anton's fanbase but Anton's partners are also often the comedy bad dancers and we've got Ed for that. It would be a shame as she's good but she didn't dance well tonight and she probably wouldn't do that much better in the dance off. She can try to correct the mistakes but she can't change the fact the tango doesn't suit her.
