Better VTs
Ed's lifts deserved recognition in feedback
Danny and Oti fab
Daisy's dress only slightly less hideous than when shown on ITT
Ore needs to contain his emotions now

1. For the second week in a row I really liked Louise! Dance of the night for me except for...
2. ...Ed's Salsa, which was just brilliant in an entirely different way, so brilliant I rewatched it three times straightaway for the sheer gobsmacking glory of it.
3. Daisy looked drop dead gorgeous, wow!
4. Ore's rumba was pretty good. Not perfect, not deserving of SUCH a high score, but really good, I loved the fluidity of his arms in particular. Nice.
5. I want Judge Rinder to win this. I doubt he will but I would love it.

1. Proper VTs, hurrah!
2. Craig unnecessarily harsh on Judge Rinder, it feels a bit personal now, JR is really improving and his Foxtrot was very good
3. Danny spectacular but awful music and too manic for me, wish he'd had traditional music like Louise had last week
4. Ed just joyful to watch and as for Katya, a star is born (from a tv perspective of course I realise she's already achieved a lot in the dance world)
5. Love Daisy but I feel she'll be gone, first out and poor routine

The singer, others have said it was Lance, did an amazing job! When the band and singers are welcomed at the start, the singers had arms crossed, which I realise now was Gagnam style. They must have enjoyed the challenge.

1)I felt Louise and Kevin were overpraised and overmarked, last week she was far better capturing the mood of the dance but this week she took a step back.
2) I think AJ and Claudia are working well as a partnership.He's fresh onto the show and used to winning and what with her being an athlete she can match his competitiveness and push herself to new levels.
3)After such a comedic routine I think Ed is safe again this week.
4)I really didn't appreciate the shouting about scores from some the other dancers upstairs.
5)I really liked Danny and Oti's AT, great music and choreography.I didn't get Craig and Darcey calling it too aggressive.

I think you may be right, but I've never seen it so 'front and centre,' nor for a relation (I.e. no Aljasz/Janette shouting out).
Thought it was bad taste but it is really becoming a habit with the Cliftons.

They're family, of course they're going to be supportive! And perhaps you could learn to spell Karen's name correctly?
I must book some more English classes ... or get a keyboard that works or maybe proofread my comments!!!

Another of these comments? Everyone was shouting "undermarked", not just those two.

1. Not enough mark variation from Len.
2. Danny and Oti were brilliant (and I hate Argentine Tangos.)
3. Louise just does not connect with the camera. The judges see something I don't.
4. Slightly better music overall but nowhere near good overall.
5. Shouts of 'undermarked' are hideously unsportsmanlike, especially by a pro who's still dancing competitively.
I'm lookin at you Joanne.

1. Danny and Oti's AT was the best dance this series by a very long way.
2. Louise did a good performance.
3. Didn't like the cat-calling in the Claudatorium. Reminder of last year with Kellie!
4. I liked Daisy's salsa.
5. What dance did Ore do?
Now let me think, who was Kellie dancing with last year?

Wow Daisy's legs are never ending
People say Ore cries but I noticed tears in Roberts eyes when the judges were commenting
Natalie is tall. Didn't notice this before
Oti and Danny are really good together.

2. Ed - genius ..joyious..going nowhere this week
3. Ore - simpering is doing him no favours. I predict a pixie exit soon..reign it in mate
4. Gregs backside seems to be getting bigger..

1. Sorry... I forgot what dance Ed was doing... Argentine Tango maybe?

2. Daisy was definitely doing a Sadiscolsa.

3. A fitting remembrance - grandad warz.

4. I think the monkey throwing the darts at the music choices, hits what he wants to hit.

5. Claudia and AJ - the ones who got it right on the night.

Definitely the dark horses of the the competition IMO. For a small lady, Claudia dances tall.

1. Just can't take to Louise and Kevin, its not that interesting

2. Greg needs a wow dance, as does Claudia

3. Ore and Joanne are going backwards, they wowed too early

4. Judge Rinder to win, he fills me with Joy

5. There's no joy in Danny and Oti, even though they are amazing, its like yes you can dance, you could dance before you started and theres no change in you so I'm not bothered about you

Too much tension and emotion of the wrong sort this year except for Ed who expects nothing and.....
Claudia, who seems to take everything in her stride.
I thought Daisy's dress was ghastly...she looked a mess and it distracted from the dance.
How many times was Blackpool mentioned... maybe that's why they were all so tense.
Louise,Ore and of course Eddie boy were my favourites of the night.

1) Louise and Kevin should have wowed but there was something off about it for me. Can't put my finger on it but it didn't take off in the last 20 secs which it should have done.
2) Love love love Katya. A great contribution to Strictly this year
3) Loved Ore's Rumba. He did well with the music and tricky phrasing. Unlike others who get their knickers in a twist about his emotions, they don't bother me a bit.
4) Still enjoying JR and Oxana.
5) Greg and Natalie probably gone as far as they can go as it's likely Ed will get voted through again.

1. Move over Nathalie Lowe, it's Daisy who's the goddess here. She is so sweet and ever optimistic. Can't understand why she hasn't captured the public's imagination. Unless men don't vote.
2. Not only has Ore emotions, Danny was caught out last night by the "over aggressive" poor lad. Don't worry Danny you are TERRIFIC (and you look like a young Warren Beatty)
3. Time for Greg to go and when he does, please Nathalie don't over gush.
4. Claudia and AJ are perfect. They'll be in the final against Danny.
5. Ruddy Winkle Woman with her stupid "your little face" - but I can't afford to throw my TV out of the window.

PS. if Katya contnues her winning formula of giving Ed the camp and slightly ridiculous routines, he'll be in it for a while yet.

Why would you spell Natalie like that?

It's the French spelling, I think

1. Underwhelming night overall
2. Louise....... boring, bland, beige
3. Claudia's manic end to show in clauditorium very childish and irritating
4. Ed and the judge only bright spot's of the night
5. Can't take to Danny, had nowhere to go since day 1

Don't get me started. It's like some people have never seen it spelt the other way. Like when people add an 'a' to Rachel.

1. Claudia & AJ are finally finding their stride.
2. I don't massively dislike their partners but the Clifton lot are infinitely annoying.
3. My appreciation for Oksana grows more each week.
4. With traditional music Danny and Oti's AT would have been so perfect.
5. Scoring always seems to be a mess.

1) Danny keeps rising but Ore for me is falling back
2) Joanne is so annoying, especially when the couples are introduced at the beginning, makes Kevin look normal
3) Ed Balls was class Blackpool bound for sure
4) I think they want Daisy gone, felt like they were throwing her under the bus
5) Liking Louise more and more, she is good!
