Your can tell by her facial expressions that she is uber competitive to the extent that I find her excruciatingly unlikable. Her expressions after hugging Ed were unacceptable.

Why oh why she (and Greg) were preferred to Daisy I will never know.

How that could happen... I'll never know.

(Greg danced better in the DO that's why he was saved.)

How disgusting of her, in a dance competition as well!

Next thing the judges will be accused of being judgemental.

Its probably because she's tired of getting duffers so she's milking having an athlete....rightly so. She's got something to get her teeth into this year and I liked the way she winked at Greg before and after the DO to reassure him. He looked devastated before his DO because HE is competitive

Four posts, and already two threads knocking Natalie.

This says more about you than it does about Natalie.

So you think the judges should have dumped Greg/Natalie because you don't like her despite the fact they performed better in the DO!!

Yes I can see why that might upset you.....

How can you be too competitive as a competitive dancer - unless of course you cheat?

I'll have you know that was a very competitive hug. I could tell by the position of her arms.

Yes, the angle of her elbows made it a real giveaway!

When the elbow goes into someone's rib then I will consider that going too far.

Don't rise to the bait people. The poster is clearly looking for attention by joining purely to start a few threads bashing Queen Nat.

I'm not sure it's just being competitive, more that this season she seems to have lost her usual sang-froid. Greg's 'if I just train harder I'll be Fred Astaire' attitude has rubbed off on her and she is going down the 'it isn't fair' route which is tedious.

Oh poor 'Queen' Nat, we mustn't say anything to criticise her.

I don't think it is so much that Natalie cannot be criticised, so much as having a dig at the OP who has started 2 virtually identical threads in order to have a bash at Nat.

absolutely shes making the most of not having a duffer so is going to get competitive since she knows she hasn't got the worst in the contest. I know they will go before Ed eventhough Gregg is better

When have Greg and Natlie ever had those attitudes?

Shocking I know. But some people take their craft and skills very seriously.
Some even make a living out of it.

Natalie looks like she is close to stroking his chest or something. I wouldn't be surprised if they were this series' Ben and Kristina.

Natalie is my favourite to make up for all the unkind things I thought about her when she was with Ricky Whittle. She is a superb dancer particularly in ballroom and always does her best to bring out the best in her celebrity no matter what their aptitude. Yes she's probably competitive and Greg is too its hot wired into their DNA. SO WHAT its a competition. Dont you think Oti is thanking her lucky stars to get Danny and if you want competitive facial expressions have you watched Oksana ? Not that I blame her, this is her first series and she wants to do the best she can for the sake of her own career and future, Judge Rinder and Greg Rutherford dont need to do well in this show to guarantee their futures but it doesnt stop them wanting to do well for their own ego's and for their professional partners.
