Strictly Semi-Finalist Ian Waite will be joining Claudia in the studio tonight to share his thoughts on their Saturday performances, and to look ahead to the weekend.

And we are giving YOU the chance to ask Ian a question or two, so send your thoughts to us on this thread, and we will do our best to aks Ian as many as we can, live on the show!

Good Luck!!

Wow. What a great opportunity. Here's my question:

Do you feel that the judges high expectations acts more as a hindrance or a help?

Also, if you possibly could, please let him know how much some of us are rooting for him and Zoe and give him our best.

Thank you very much

Ok, here's the first one:

You were in the bottom 2 the other night and impressed many people with the way you and Zoe went straight to comfort Patsy when she was knocked out What was going through your head at that point?

Who do you think will go this week??

Nat
xxx

Umm ok here's mine!!!

Do you think you were marked accordingly and do you think that you deserved to be in the bottom two? And do you feel under even more pressure now than you did previously?

Sorry they are a bit boring!!!!!!

What did you think of zoe encouraging people to vote for james before you got yours scores, and subsequently, james getting thorugh and zoe and yourself being in the bottom two!!??

Finger crossed you get to the final!! you truly deserve to be there!!

t care

If it's not too much to suggest another one, how about:

What has been yours and Zoe's favourite moment so far?

If you could go back and do-over any of the dances, which would you choose and why?

Mind the gap Ian! What steps have you taken to lessen the empty space between you?

Will you be taking part in SCD Series 4?
Who do you prefer dancing with, Denise or Zoe?
Why does Bruno seem so mesmerised by you?
Will you give Shappy private lessons for free?
Who has been your favourite dancing partner ever (including prefessionals and celebrities)?
What is your natural hair colour?

I'm assuming the OP is a member of the ITT production team - thanks for this, it is much appreciated. Anyway, here's a couple of possible questions for Ian...

Neither you or Zoe looked overly happy after you finished the cha cha cha; were you surprised by the high marks awarded?

What do you think the judges are looking for in their marks?

Len said that your cha cha cha routine was overly simplified with too many repeated steps. Previously you been accused of having routines that were too complicated. Are you changing anything about your choreography for this weekend in light of this?

Good luck for Saturday!

Ian, no disrespect to Zoe or Denise, but looking at the other celebs who would you have liked to have experienced dancing with?

LMAO, I like the way you sneaked that one in

hi ian!
i think you are great!!
who do you think will win SCD4 and you cant just say yourself for the fun of it!
who would you like to dance with in SCD4 if you had the choice!!
which has been your favourite series - this one or the last one!!!
did it annoy you when the judges told you to simplify your routines then criticised them for being too simple??

also, i know this is quite cheeky but - it is my 19th birthday on friday and it would really make my day if you could say happy birthday to me!!!!!

lots of love, katy x x x x x x

Ok just a couple of controversial(is this how you spell it?) questions for MR Waite:

Who's gone home that still deserves to be arround?

Do you think Camilla & James deserve to be in the Final?

If you had to have danced with anyone else in this series who would it have been?

Now I know I'm pushin my luck but I believe you have James and Camilla on too so ..... Can you please ask them the following

Camilla - Whose better Brendan or Ian (take it on whatever level you want)?

James - Is there a chance what with you bein a chef an all that you could maybe feed Camilla every now an again - love her to bits but she's lookin a bit emciated no offence

Questions for Ian from The Niji...

Unrelated to SCD but something i've always wanted to ask a dancer... How did you first know you wanted to be a dancer?; In other words: What made you think "This is for me"

Do you think that as the competition hots up Zoe is able to stand the pressure because week on week she performs but do you feel like she'll be confident enough to deliver when it really counts?

Do you not think it was a liitle bit hypocritical of you to be displeased about Erins (justified) comments with regards the judges marking when you yourself after only week 1 of the last series was criticising the judges m

Do you not think it was a liitle bit hypocritical of you to be displeased about Erins (justified) comments with regards the judges marking when you yourself after only week 1 of the last series was criticising the judges for overmarking Brendan and Sarah leading to those two being undermarked the following week and tension between the pair.

Do you think it was fair that Patsy and Anton left?
Do you ever wish you could be in any other profession, if so what?
Are you jealouse of Anton?
Is Zoe ok now?
Are you gay? (sort this one out once and for all)
Do you think your in the right mind set to win, or has being in the bottom two changed your mind set?

Do you think that the winner of this competition should be
a) the most talented celebrity dancer
b) the most improved celebrity dancer
c) the most entertaining celebrity dancer

There have been so many arguments on the forum about this and it would be interesting to have the view of a professional

Do you feel that some people are right in saying you and zoe get marked too highly.
Do you believe that Colin and Erin are not getting enough marks from the judges.
If you go out next week will you be voting for your proffesional partner Camilla?

lol, hear hear!

Strictly random, this! We've seen some of the other competitor's dogs. Do you have any pets??

Gill

Do you think the public have turned against you and Zoe even though she is by far the best dancer out of the celebrities?

Paxman is that you?!?!
