Very pleased that Danny has the salsa and AS. I think that both dances could be showstoppers . Perfect for the semi

He will get through and he will win don't worry

I'm happy if he wins tbf even if I'm not his biggest fan. He is a showdancer who is very, very good.

Looking on those dances, doesn't look me like any one can do a Brendan and perfect one at the expense of the other. Good.

AT or QS is a tough call for Ore as he's a sexy man with a strong presence who could do the AT well, but QS is always a vote winner and I'd imagine Jo would rather stay on what she knows best.

Will Louise or Claudia, if she does it, get the first good tango music of the series?

Rumba is a good dance for Claudia. Gives the chance to show performance. Would contrast well with a QS.

Surely Louise would do salsa over samba if she can?

Thanks.

I'm not convinced that he will win.

I think Ore would have a Simon Webbe moment with an AT. Moody and intense.

He was wonderfully intense in his Paso I was quite impressed!

I think I'd prefer Ore to do an AT- would provide a good contrast to a samba.
I don't think QS would be the right choice for Claudia- I'm not sure she'd be able to keep up with AJ because of the height difference, and he doesn't seem to have it in him to tone stuff down!
Louise will go for Samba I think, I don't see her doing a salsa- especially as Danny is dancing it.

Think Kevin would choose Samba over salsa - what he is trained in - instead of relying on the outside choreographers

Claudia is probably doing QS and Rumba... both gonna be amazing.

I can't see Ore's AT being great. The only good ATs, Ramps aside, come from the stage school ringahs. And AT plus samba is surely a nightmare combination for two-dance week.

My thoughts (on those we don't know yet)

Claudia - I think will go QS - she's better at the fun-filled movement dances than the moody ones and she has enough moodiness with the Rumba

Louise - I think will go Samba - Kevin will be more in control of the choreography than if they go Salsa - and he doesn't have a particularly good track-record in Salsa

Ore - as above, I think they will go QS - as a self-confessed Ballroom Girl, I can't see Jo going for AT over that. The only question being, whether they let them do AT instead of Samba..... (to avoid too many repeat dances)? They may prefer Samba as again Jo would be more in control of the choreography, but personally I thought Ore got moodiness quite well in his Paso, so could do quite well in AT.

Don't worry he's going nowhere - I'll eat my hat if he's not in the final.

BIB - Ha I very much doubt it, they are probably going through the 'High School Musical' soundtrack as we speak to find her a song!!

Claudia and AJ are doing the Quickstep, confirmed by AJ on the radio!

OMG... Quickstep and Rumba for Claudia... I'm excited... gonna be fabulous!

I'm reserving judgment until we see what the dart-throwers and costume chuck at them. Many a potentially good dance combination has fallen at those hurdles ...

I'm definitely one that isn't bothered by a rumba for Claudia. If they can channel that connection, like in the VW, it should be fine. Her flexibility and control should also help to make it a strong performance.

I listened to bbc radio stoke on iplayer... according to AJ they tried the Rumba last week and Claudia was good... he sounds very confident about it... and Im sure it gonna be fantastic...

All these no connection comments are like building up to a wonderful sultry Rumba.

Really hope AJ takes into consideration her height for the Quickstep, she's only got little legs and can't go as fast as him. Fingers cossed.

That suggests to me that AJ is pacing her quite well for two-dance week by getting some of it down early, so having to learn two whole routines in the time they previously had to learn one is a bit less overwhelming. I wonder if any of the other pros do that.

He will get to the final, but I think it isn't a forgone conclusion that he'll win even though I think he will.

I agree and I hope they do well, but I think Darcey will be their biggest problem.
