Greg Rutherford will never be a dancer - Daisy was far better than he will ever be. I only watch bits and pieces of this farce so i can talk to my MIL about it (but don't like it) but why is EB and Judge Rinder still in there. Like the X factor (which I never watch) the whole lot is a load of crZp

Opinion I'm guessing.
I like Ore a lot. Think he does a great job on Breakfast Sport. Very natural presenter and he makes me smile. There's been nothing on this show that negates that opinion.
Im sorry he hasn't come across well to some people. I can honestly say it's a shame because he's nothing like the character that some of you are portraying or at least suggesting. I think he's a genuinely emotional person and I see nothing wrong with that.

Do you know him personally?
It seems like it's not acceptable to not like ore but fine to call others fake.

Yes! She did, didn't she? I think their friendship was sweet. She's wasn't my cup of tea before Strictly started, but I have to say, she was incredibly endearing and seemed to bring out the best in Aljaz; he was much more fun this series.
Just for balance... What's the big deal with Louise dancing the Paso at B'pool? Greg's Paso just landed him in the DO. Kevin and Louise have to dance something...

I think the problem I have (and perhaps this is true for others?) is that Ore is a professional TV presenter being paid to make a professional TV appearance. That makes the crying/emotionality seem inappropriate somehow. I had similar issues with Laura.
It would be much more understandable and forgivable in less seasoned TV performers, such as Daisy, but somehow they seem to make a better fist of it all.
Greg was clearly better than Daisy there ... more conviction for a start. Daisy looked a bit half hearted. It was the right decision plus she would have gone sooner or later. Last week, on paper, it looked like it would be Laura and this week, Daisy. The PTB stitched them up with choice of dance etc.
Louise and Kevin get a Paso at Blackpool! Big surprise ... was sure they'd get a Samba ... not!!

'Oh I'm just ever so 'umble, and I love my grand parents so much' together with that trout pout and roll-eye schtick. louise, who I believe would cheerfully strangle her pro, fake laughing while all the while thinking 'I thought I'd be out in week one'.

At this stage, I'm sure the top couples want to save their best dances for the quarter-final and semi-final. No point doing an elegant dance in the semis that everyone forgets by the time the next music starts.

TWO QUICKSTEPS?!!! Seriously?!!! Overt favoritism in action.
