Yes, she did look ghastly. Much though I like her, I must agree that there is an air of desperation about her this year which is not attractive. Loved her dance with Brendan, though.

So did I. But she did look sulky when she knew she was in the dance off.

Yes, that was ace - shame the camera kept switching to Rieu's gruesome mug though!

I love Natalie she's brilliant and I find it brilliant she has a change of a celeb that's better than whats she's had, she deserves to enjoy this series more

Love Greg, and sorry to disappoint but love Natalie too, great partnership and i'm so glad they stayed !

Met Natalie on a Strictly Come Dancing cruise. Absolutely lovely. She was with Ian and Craig. Ian was fun just as he is on ITT. Craig caused a few of the older ladies to have intakes of breath with his risqué stories. Lol.

I like them both but as time went on something about their dancing partnership stopped working for me and I can't wait to see the back of them on the dancefloor.

Plus if they stay it will mean that couples I like more will be out

You made a whole new thread just to tell us this? Did you think your opinion was *that* important?

IN YOUR OPINION! What a nasty comment. Natalie is the most lovely genuine person apart from being a fabulous dancer and unless you know her and have met her I think this thread is uncalled for.

You clearly don't like Natalie which you're entitled to do . So you're reading into it what you want to believe . We all can't like everyone .

You could say the same about any pro or celeb you don't like .
I'm not keen on Rob Rinder and your description perfectly fits him .

Well we can only judge on what we see and bearing in mind there are plenty of threads about other pros I really don't think Nat should automatically be exempt.

You forgot she is the forum untouchable not a bad word must be said she is apparently exempt from criticism on here as she apparently has Goddess status.

Personally finding her and Gregs partnership a bit icky especially the puppy eyes from her to him at the start of the show just something a bit off.

Was never fussed either about her either way down didn't particularly bother me but didn't adore either but beginning to want to seethe back of them.

But your comment stating she is "the most lovely genuine person" is equally OTT, unless you know her personally?

Its ridiculous how someone is criticised for having a negative view on Natalie, yet in a Kevin thread his fans are told they have to acknowledge that he's annoying. So unfair!

Plenty of people with a negative view of Kevin are criticised constantly. There are just more of them.

I thought all the pros signed 2 year contracts this year?

I've met her several times and I can assure you the nice Natalie of every series aside from her first one is completely genuine.

That said, she has been getting on my nerves a bit this year and her attitude towards her and Greg's score from Craig especially this week did seem a little too competitive. I think she just wishes Greg was better than he is - she must have thought when the contestants were announced that she'd have a shot at winning if she got him.

Disagree with the OP on both counts. I adore Natalie and Brendan dancing ballroom. She is a ballroom goddess. Check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wP8F2WKnsTE.
You are welcome!

All the long time pros want to win, it's one of the ultimate trophies they can achieve and it must be frustrating when they either get duffs or get good dancers and just miss out. It's their challenge, it is a competition and they will do what they can to try to win if they have the slightest chance.”

I ony watched the results show last night & have to agree her face was like thunder when told of DO ony until Craig gave clear hints that Greg had a chance. (That's a difference between disappointed pro and clearly cross)

AND!!!! she flipping wafted fer dress in the Brendan dance!! ( I wasn't expecting it for that solemn song).
Maybe her being away last year have changed her game plan? I like her and normally rooting for her but not so endearing this series.

I am surprised nobody has mentioned her wonderful partnership with the wounded soldier Cassidy in the charity version of SCD.

She was so generous and caring with him. I fell in love with her then and was so glad they won.

I think Natalie's great. I like her nearly as much as Kevin. They both come across as warm, hardworking people who choreograph well and have great working relationships with their celebrity partners.
