Yes, please tell Patsy how great we think she is. She did so well to finally conquer those nerves and give the best dance of the night. Long may it continue, the girl is fabulous, just as Anton says.
Please also play their entire routine again on ITT, i was too nervous for them to enjoy it properly the first time around! The clips people must be in such a rush, they never choose the best bits to play again, so please lets see as much of it as possible on ITT! (not on Thursday though, us Scots don't get to see it on a Thursday )
Best dance of the night - very convincing and actually very sexy as well. Hate to say it, but Arlene's comments were spot on!
Patsy's progress from week one has been lovely to watch, Anton is obviously an excellent partner and teacher - I really do think that this will have given her the confidence to go on and do well in the competition, and after her Tango, she deserves to!
I was another watching it from behind the settee (when it was over, I actually ran it back to watch it again without the fear-factor! - thank you sky+!)
She was amazing and Anton has shown what a fantastic teacher he is and how he can really bring the best out of his celebs (Brendon, take note!)
Patsy and Anton are now officially my second favourite after Darren and Lilia!

Yep agree with all that, said as much somewhere else...(I am losing track of what I wrote where!)
Patsy has come on so well in the last couple of weeks, but I'm troubled by one thing. Most of the girls look gorgeous with great hair and make up, but Patsy.... well, she looks beautiful in training, so who on earth styles her for the show, her make up and hair are dreadful!!
AND ............... about Gloria, during rehearsal footage and interviews, she's "perfectly made up" Very odd!!

I 50% agree with that, I think she looked amazing in her rumba outfit, and I love her smoky kohl-lined eyes and nude lips. I think she should stick to neutrals in her dresses rather than bright colours as they suit her much better - her hair's such a dramatic colour, it's set off much better by a plain coloured outfit. I thought her hair was very strange last night, and her pink dress clashed with it horribly.
She's such a star, though, I love her. Patsy and Anton to win!
She is so natural and beautiful and not full of herself like other ex soap stars Most of us watch for the real celebs ie the pro dancers anyway and shes with the Dance God himself
Shes lovely. And she done something I have in the past....picked up a real challenge and spent day two in tears. I battled, talked and came through it too and now, six years on, I am very proud of myself that I did.
Much better this week - up to the standard I thought she'd be at the beginning. Hope Bill has a similar upturn in fortunes as I enjoy Karen's routines the best.

I totally agree with your observations although I don't have your credibility as a dance teacher and judge - I just know what I like
I adore Anton and have commented in another thread that I feel he is such an accomplished dancer he could make a broom look good, but I honestly saw no evidence of the 'passion' generated by Darren and Lilia during his and Patsy's tango.
Of course, you have to take into account that I can scarcely watch Patsy without giggling since my husband suggested she wore that awful fringe to hide the words 'Insert batteries here' stamped on her forehead!
My mum and I were howling with laughter at Patsy's comments on ITT tonight. Beginning with "Len's the one that can actually dance" and digging herself deeper and deeper as Anton despaired. Then, just as you thought she couldn't make things any worse, she finishes with "I hope i haven't offended anyone. I know you can dance, I've seen you in Wham videos."
It was the most perfect series of put-downs, all completely unintentional. I love her, she's just fantastic.
totally agree with you xadie - was never a fan of her character in Easties, however, she has made me roar with laughter on SCD and ITT
the funniest for me was in training when she was doing that super-complicated tongue twister in a beautiful accent, and thenAnton saying "why do you not talk like that all the time?" and patsy replying "i cant be bovvered" in that broad accent of hers - absolute class
liking her more and more all the time
