Well thank you, Xadie .. this comment is so acutely observed it made me just howl with laughter! Unlike you, I don't like Karen at all and always think her 'overdone' in hairstyle, dress, facial expression .. and I also don't like her comedy choreography in what is (superficially) meant to be a
dance competition.
In the foxtrot, I loved Zoe's dress this week - elegant, sleek and understated - much like her dancing - and in the Latin, I thought Lilia looked splendidly tempestuous in her red skirt.
