I'd be quite interested to hear your thought's on this week's style of elimination. Do you like it happening straight after everyone's performed? I may use something similar in the future if the general consensus is good.

I don't really (still) understand how the eliminations work, so I can't really say much!

LOL I am very much a harsh judge. But it is very easy to get high marks from me. You just have to find the right type of song!

Julie though gosh you are a light touch! You are making me look harsher.

She can be very harsh or very generous on My ALL STARS season.

Just how a judge should be, using all range of paddles!

ok I'll try this again (having internet problems, keeps crashing, driving me crazy)

thanks for voting me through, really happy I get to dance with Oksana again

thanks judges, I had trouble choosing a salsa song but very relieved you didn't hate it

elimination style was confusing but I think it's good to confuse and scare people in a game like this, was also good doing results straight after performances when lots of us were online

bottom 3 is always sad, I think it's a double elimination too Good luck John and Jamie

enjoyed the show when I wasn't swearing at the internet

Sorry for being dense but is there a double elimination for show one and a double elimination for show two? Or just one double elimination across both shows before the next show.

I love how erratic the scoring is, it's like the Polish version of Dancing With the Stars.

So Show 2 kind of doesn't count for anything as we were already through based on the Show 1 result?

I'm glad I did my good dance first, I changed my mind a few times about the order

We'll know about our next dance after tomorrow's show then?

Yes, your dances for Show Three have been picked and will be revealed straight after tomorrows elimination.

I guess show 2 does matter a bit. More so for the three in the firing line. Both their dances could have a baring on how people vote. And also it's good for us if we're aware we've got said dance out the way

I can't wait!

I am assuming my next dance will be Ballroom? I'm hoping that I get a Foxtrot at some stage this competition.

I really hope I get a dance I feel confident with, there's a few I'm really worried about. Or maybe it's better to get them done early when there's less chance of elimination but I'll probably be out if I get a bad mark.

Will there be theme weeks?

That'll be interesting, if it's the Samba I get, heaven help us all!

but I'm guessing not the foxtrot as I've already done it?

have to say 2 of the other options kind of scare me, no idea what song I'd pick

but let's look on the bright side. If I tell Oksana I'm scared I might get a cuddle

I have at least one good song for each of those options, so I'm happy; not gonna lie though, my Viennese Waltz was my most confident song, so hopefully I haven't Sophie Ellis-Bextored myself.

Good luck to Aurora, Callum, and John!

I got songs for jive tango and samba now (can't believe I'm doing my homework before it's even been given, insane)

not sure if they're good songs but I'm sure the judges will tell me

Let's see...I've done a Tango, so that's ruled out. I've just done a Latin, which rules out both the Samba and the Tango, leaving the Foxtrot, which I hate. Then again, I have bad luck so I'll be lumped with the Samba *sighs*

Seeing as you've done one of each, you could have either probably, so you're down to Jive, Foxtrot or Samba as options.

My only truly hated dances are Cha-Cha-Cha and American Smooth, so I'm fairly easy.

Mine are, for doing a Digital Spy series, Argentine Tango and Charleston, it is very hard to find a song.

Dances I am not keen on in real life:- Rumba and Salsa.
