I'm wondering if they gonna mention Louise's basic safe routine...”

I think it has more to do with Danny, Ore and Louise signing up for the tour, while Claudia is off to the British gymnastics Championships , or there's some other reason for the appreciation club the judges have been running for those 3 since week one.

In Argentine Tango, spotting is irelevant because AT does not go in for multiple spins. Its just not that sort of dance.

I meant for the rest of the Ballroom routines as that is what I thought the poster I quoted was saying.

The AT was terrible (not a single AT step tio be seen and no walking - not her fault) and her Charleston was brilliantly choreographed. Her Latin is not good at all and her Jive was appalling. She is better in hold.

I think she's a great girl but she's no a finalist. However, I don't think she'll mind one bit. She is a superb athlete and I really do not think she'll cry over a plastic glitterball.”

I thought she looked very fluid in her VW, and as I said I would love to see it again in the final.

I liked her AT, I don't agree- but I can see why some people saying about it not having enough AT content. Personally, (bar the jive- I wouldn't say appalling, but certainly disappointing) I'm not sure her latin is as bad some people make out, it's still got good feedback from the judges. Her ballroom is solid, though.

Ultimately, we are going to have to agree to disagree. I think she's great and I'd love to see her in the final.

She's my favourite. I love her dancing and her attitude. She should have gotten at least a couple of 10's, because the dance was so good. She is the least favourite with the judges I think, because of being athletic more than fluid. They think she needs to get into the character more, particularly Darcy. Looking back at the AT I think she could have been more expressive with her emotions. Express more passion and desire which is essential for the AT. Even if she doesn't fancy AJ she could think of someone she does and bring that feeling into the dance. But don't think she has the maturity to do this yet.

Just watching their salsa training now, their salsa looks like it could be 10 material plus add in the Lion King theming it should be a cracking dance. Looking forward to it.
