Jaye and Andrew Aka Zorro didnt deserve to leave. There were people way worse than her on the night. I just think that if she had stayed she could have offered so much more.

I dunno bout everyone else but I am really starting to hate Arlene. She was just irksome in Series 1, a pain in the butt in Series 2 but now shes gone fully fledged bi-atch. Wassup with that?! Thought it was a really low blow for her to say to Fiona "If you get the Julian Carey sympathy vote...". Talk about kicking someone square in the teeth when they're down.

ive seen them rehearse and they are great. Didnt deserve to leave. Fiona should have gone Week one!

Yep, it is a shame when the less well known celebs/partners get voted off early (I was looking forward to seeing how well/badly Siobhan would do); I think pairing the less well known celebs with new professional dancers is a mistake.

Jaye was 16/1 with Bet365 and 18/1 with William Hill to leave tonight.

A night of 'shocks' for reality show bettors (if Abba doesn't win Eurovision's 50th anniversary show then that'll complete the treble).

I am having to have my second vodie to get to grips with the fact that witchy phillips is still there. She just sleep walks through the whole thing and is about as sensual as a bag of spuds. How she survived i will never know.

I agree..I thought she was one of the better girls. just not as famous.

Fiona...even though I am trying to give her a chance...was dreadful tonight.

GMTV viewers who happen to like her. Remember it's a popularity contest not who's the best dancer.

I never watch GMTV so am going by the best dancer (if you check my posts) and I thought she was awful tonight.

It was soooooooo unfair tonight - Jaye has the enthusiasm for it, the entertainment value and she was far better than the likes of Fiona - I am so angry about it!

The newer professional dancers have really pulled the short straw on the 'famousness' of their partners!

Fiona has blagged too long - she has got to go! I bet Patsy regretted saying vote for her - Fiona was safe before she was!

Surely Fiona has got to be running out of celebs who are younger and less famous than her!

She's been awful both weeks. But as I've said on another thread, the public always keep the underdog in for several weeks. So I expect she and Brendan will be there for another few.

The trouble with Fiona is apart from a million and one things is she has got no dignity. She makes me cringe everytime she opens her stupid mouth.

Couldn't have put it better!

I didnt like the arrogannt snear when the judges gave their opinions she was as bad as they said was amazed she didnt go but did have jaye in my bottom three along with Dennis

Agree, Fiona and Gloria were awful, why didn't one of them get voted off?
Mind you to be fair to fiona she DID admit she hates dancing, why bother to enter the comp though??
Gloria was just cringeworthy last nighth.
Sorry to hear Jaye got voted off though.

I could quite happily go and slap every single person who voted for Fiona to stay in. She was awful last night, dreadful, and yet Jaye, who definately had potential, went I was cringing watching both Fiona and Gloria, whilst Jaye looked okay, not great, but definately not someone who should be eliminated.

Fiona was definitely the worst last night - she just can't dance, she's like a sack of potatoes. I can't stand Fiona on gmtv but obviously she must have some fans

I thought Jaye and Gloria were both on a par last night, very poor - but Gloria was quite good last week so I have hopes she'll return to form. I thought Jaye was completely dull last night, no 'passion' at all. I don't know much about her but I believe she's an actress? she didn't seem to put that to much use in her performance last night (whereas I thought Patsy did, which lifted her performance even though she's not the best dancer).

Don't think it is even GMTV viewers, I think the majority of votes come from Brendan's fanclub (me bein a fully fledged and paid up member!!!! )!!

I agree though Fiona is terrible, she needs to put some oomph in it! At the moment she is just spaghetti arms!!!! She should watch Brendan and Natasha's DVD - it would do her wonders!

Fiona (sack of undignified potatoes)Phillips printed in her daily mirror column yesterday letters from people who thought the judges were harsh and that she was wonderful blah blah blah. Omg have you ever read that column?!!!!! it is the biggest load of biased c..p ever. This is a woman who cried real tears and was late picking her kids up from school because Tony had made a beautiful speach at the party conference.

U guys. Fiona was indeed horrible but stop sticking it to her! To call her undignified and a sack of potatoes. That is tres harsh. She is not a dancer. Why are you expecting her to be brilliant when shes never done dancing in her whole life. People are sumtimes un-coordinated!

If Brendon had taken it slow it would have been alrite. Look at Gloria. Darren knws that shes a more matre lady and felt uncomfortable but did he scream and I quote "Be sexy!" "That is rubbish!" "You look stupid!" No. He devised a routine that would gently tap into the Rumba. It was dull yes but Gloria looked the better for it (I mean a lot worse than she could have done).

That boy needs to stop, think and plan their dances to Fiona's stengths. Thats all there is to it. And sumone needs to sort of those idiot judges. They need to find a way to encourage the poor gilr. If Arlene and Craig had said to me what they said to her I would ave walked of and refused to come back. But she was actually quite dignified in the way she stood there and took it. And backstage when Brendon rightfully stood up for her she told him to shush and said it wasnt worth t. How undignified was that(?)

Unfortunately, LATB, I haven't actually identified any of Fiona's strengths that Brendan could play to.

I'm not expecting her to be a good dancer, but as most of us agree she is a sack of potatoes (others are welcome to put it more politely ) I'm just expecting people to stop voting to keep her in.

First of all I like what you did wht my name there. LATB...I think I mite keep that

Secondly stop calling her a sack of potatoes! That is so mean. She has to get up and dance to god knows how many millions of people. Why arent people giving the same treatment to snooker guy or Ballroom Bill or Gloria. They cant dance well either.

Ballroom Bill CAN dance, he's entertaining and he's enjoying himself - please don't compare him to the like of Fiona!

Because Ballroom Bill, Gloria and Dennis Taylor are obviously putting their all into it and seem to be having a great time, plus they have the massive advantage of partners who are tailoring their dancing for the non-professional and are actually on their side. Bill especially has formed a great partnership with Karen.

I think Fiona is suffering because Brendan is putting together routines that are obviously too difficult for her. The waltz was awful and what exactly was the point of that lift at the end and the rhuma just seemed to consist of him arranging Fiona in various poses whilst drapped all over him, it bore no resemblance to any rhumba I've ever seen, and that dreadful, legs open bit at the end, ugh. I can't stand Ms Phillips, but Brendan is actually achieving the near impossible and making me feel sorry for her

that absolutely sums up the Fiona and Brendan Rumba - excellently put, Agent!

Thant vision of her with legs a kimbo will live with me for years - I can't forget it no matter how hard I try!

Karen obviously has a much better idea of choregraphy as does Izabela - both tailor the routines to the strengths of their partners!

Fiona didn't look like she was enjoying it, and it seemed as if Brendan organised the routine with a 'I can do it, if you can't tough sh1t!' type of attitude!

...plus the fact that Bill is lovely and Karen is lovely!

the blame for Fiona's routines has to lay at the feet of Brendan Cole the sign of a good teacher is choreographing a routine to the dancers strengths. If their ability is limited then you keep it simple a routine performed well will always look better than a complicated routine performed poorly.

Darren has kept it relatively simple for gloria - and the music Holding back the years - so right, the quality of Karen is showing through with the routines she is performing with Bill and I zabella getting it right too.

Mr cole should perhaps take a step back and look at the reasons why they are being slated by the judges each week
