I was just thinking that myself. I will heartbroken if they go so early.
I don't understand why they aren't more popular here on the forum. And after Spoony's result they are in real danger come Saturday unless they come in the top 3/4.

Well done everyone!
Hi everyone!
If Paso Doble is what Camilla & Ray are doing this weekend I shall look forward to it immensely!!!! I enjoyed their Tango on Saturday (just been catching up with the tapes as I was away) but I think the Paso could be really special!

They are 2nd in the TV Times Poll though, with Mark and Karen ahead of them. Here is hoping for the best. I don't understand why they are not more popular either on this Forum.

Really? That's great! * makes note to buy TV Times *
At least they are not unpopular - people just don't seem to have much of an opinion on them. If it weren't for Spoony leaving from viewer indifference (I can't believe anyone actively disliked his dancing) then I wouldn't be so worried.
Is weird to me that R&C seem to have slipped under the radar kind of. I think going first last week REALLY didn't do them any favours. Hope they go later on on Saturday and do a blinder of a paso!!!!!!!
I have very high expectations for their Paso. I agree that going first doesn't help with the viewer's votes... the prime spot is to go last and dance well! It is also hard for the judges to mark the first couple as they have to give themselves room to give higher marks to people they think are better and lower marks to those who are worse... so if a couple is good for the opening.. they're not really going to want to give them 9's and 10's in case there are several couples better than them. At least thank goodness, the producers are rotating the couples a bit so the same people don't go first all the time.. that WOULD be unfair.
I thought Ray's cape work looks great on the training footage! He's got some hefty muscles in those arms... hope they're not hidden by a jacket on Saturday!
Am I talking to myself in here? 
What did you guys think of tonight's training clip? I thought his posture looked fantastic and I really think he's going to be acting the part this weekend! That body is awesome!! By the time Saturday comes I think he will look more fluent too.

Philip said his lines weren't good but to be honest I don't care. He looked fab.
I'm really worried about him on Saturday, though. He could end up mid table because of people's misconceptions about both he and Camilla. He is quite quiet when not looking hot on the dance floor and she has a very undeserved reputation for being cold. I think she's fab, and having met her, found her warm, gentle and caring. She can't go out, and nor can he.

I agree completely. It really has to be an amazing performance... and hopefully they will be scheduled near the end of the running order.. not the beginning this week! Camilla is adorable... a very sweet genuine lady! I will be honest... I had not warmed to her in any of the previous series though I did start to warm to her and James towards the end of last series.... but having met her and talked to her a couple of times now.. I am convinced at her loveliness and wish her well this series... I just hope she is being portrayed as 'lovely' to everyone else too.

The training clip looked very impressive! I think Ray has a great body and the Paso seems to suit his physique very well! He certainly appears to be enjoying himself!
I'm looking forward to seeing their routine tomorrow. Fingers crossed there won't be another shock departure.

I thought they were FABULOUS tonight - burst out laughing at the music but once had got over the shock I think it worked really well!
LOVED Camilla's face when she saw Darren kiss Emma's chest at the end of their foxtrot - priceless!!!

Wow, how gorgeous did Camilla look in red tonight? She is a real stunner!
And Ray is very tasty too! And Ray danced so well, I was outraged that Len gave him a 7 and Georgina an 8! Irrational!

Camilla did indeed look STUNNING. I really think DSI are consisently doing the best dresses, Erin too looked gorgeous (although am always a bit freaked by blue for a paso somehow).
ITA the scoring was just weird....

Camilla's choreography was amazing and Ray was superb. Well Done!!
The professionals commentary was complimentary too.

i dont want be killed on here cos i appreichate that your all fans of Camilla but i didn't like the way she was carrying on after their performance, they were 3rd after all and you didn't see Erin being all melodramatic when she was the one who had the right to be upset with the judges, i mean giving her and peter a 2 was ridiculous (not that i'm and Erin fan, Mark and Karen all the way!)
I missed it... and I've just done something to my HDD player which means it won't let me play the recording (((((((( It says there is a disc error (after I split the track up).. I had already quickly skipped through the chapters but then the results show started so I watched that live. Now I can't see it... will have to wait for highlights show tomorrow.
How did they do do you think? What marks did they get from the judges?

Oh peach that sucks my VCR (I know I know, am stuck in the dark ages! ) has now decided recording anything is just too much like hard work, so I didn't get it this week either. Am just HOPING some lovely lovely person will upload to YouTube or something *fingers crossed*
Am terrible with the scores, so someone else will have to help with that side of things... but they did GREAT!!! 2nd equal behind Mark/Karen. Ray made a **very fiesty, passionate matador** and Camilla was as fab as ever. She was singing along too, which made me smile (to Bon Jovi!). I agree with whichever of the judges that there was maybe not quite enough specifically PASO steps in it though.
PERSONALLY I preferred it to Mark's, simply for the passion and drama. While technically I can see that Mark seems to be able to handle more, there is still something about him which I just don't 'get'...

Thanks Milly_Molly! That helps me loads. I can't believe it's happened! I guess I was too eager to get editing.. I think I had stopped the timer recording manually too... and it was still within that time so maybe that messed it up... I don't know... I guess tomorrow isn't too long to wait... except I want to see it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you're welcome!
Certainly Camilla did something a bit different again. Though all the pasos were a bit like that tonight, especially music-wise, except for maybe Mark and Karen (though to me Karen's dress was far less spanish than that one she had last year and got grief for!).
Camilla looked stunning in red. Ray had red shirt, black pants.
The scoring was all over the place tonight - all the judges seemed to be having some kind of brain freeze. IIRC Len scored Georgina higher than Ray (but I might be remembering wrong, am rubbish with numbers LOL)
I thought the only foxtrot which really shone was Carol's.
