Just that really.

I thought her Paso was the strongest dance of the night, but she only got two 10's. Infinitely better than Ore's and on a par with Danny for sure.

The marking was a mess tonight.

She looked like she was being pulled along and dragged at some point by Kevin. It did lack some drive. It was very, very good. I don't think it was worth more than she got though.

Was she? She didn't seem to dance much, I didn't think. She did well with what she had but there was a lot of stair walking.

I liked her paso very much, but I think the marks were fair. She was perhaps a little too soft and sweet for a paso, despite an eloquent and technically polished performance.

I'm thinking possibly because Ore's public vote isn't that high so they wanted to keep her and Ore joint second - for the points?

I usually really enjoy Louise's dancing, but for the first time there was something lacking for me tonight and she got a bit swallowed up the stage and overshadowed by the other dancers dancing with them imo. It's the first week in a while I've not voted for her.

I thought the attitude and framing was weak, entirely lacking the Paso fire I would normally expect. To be honest, I thought she would be marked lower than she was.

She was being pushed and pulled around the floor like an old broom... shame on Kevin!

I thought it was worth a 7 tbh... think nerves got to them...

First time I've been disappointed by these two, Paso is such a dramatic & fiery dance... yet she had the passion of a wet dish rag

I don't think she was undermarked. I thought the Paso was more about Kevin than Louise. Infact there were so many people on the dance floor and given the camera work was so bad it was very hard to see what was going on.
I thought her mark was fair for the show dance it was.

I liked the routine and thought she danced it well, she also looked absolutely gorgeous, but I thought the scores were about right. Ore and Claudia were overmarked.

I thought the marking was OK, I did not really enjoy this Paso, agree she appeared overshadowed and lost among all the dancers. No her best dance.

good dance i thought and she did well with it, but the blackpool staging didn't work for her, too many people, too much space, you can't put an amateur in the midlle of a bunch of professionals and expect them to stand out. thats true of many of the other dances as well of course, even saint danny

I don't think she was at all. It didn't feel very paso-ish to me, I couldn't see that haughty shaping from her.

However, they massively suffered from the staging and backing dancers... So distracting, made it really hard to even focus on Louise! I felt like Kevin toned down his over dancing though, compared to previous years at least, so that's always nice.

Kevin dragged her around like a wet blanket for the first half. The bit on the steps at end was also very messy.

She was massively overmarked not undermarked

She was overmarked but they all were so it hardly makes much difference imo.

Yep, definitely overmarked. Daisy attacked the Paso with more passion and gusto than Louise, who looked and danced like a Disney Princess. Neat, clean but didn't capture the mood of the dance at all, and Kevin gave it so much attack it looked like two completely different dances.

Was she? - I thought she was over marked - a lot of posing & being dragged around

Thought this was going to be spectacular and felt it a bit muted.

She couldn't get the character down for me and actually felt it a tad overmarked (would've had Ore above her rather than tied on the leaderboard). Didn't have the wow factor of Danny's for me.

She wasn't under marked. If anything, she was over marked.
