What time did it all wrap up on Saturday evening, after the results were announced etc. Just wondering how this ties in with the timing of last year's results show and why it has been moved to Sunday (could it indeed be because things are now being checked and therefore it is too late to go out live).

Thanks for the input and no spoilers please

Due to bad organisation of the BBC and it being a completely new format, we didnt get out till 11pm.
They did the rehearsals in between and shut everyone out, which in a live show, they could not have done.

Last night was badly organised, complete chaos, the floor crew didnt appear to know what they were doing, and it was a late finish, think this will improve over time.

I am probably being incredibly stupid here, but am I correct in assuming that somebody has already left the competition; it's just not being aired until tonight?

yes saw the group dances, Mark and Karen did their salsa, the only thing we didnt see was the vts where they interviewed the celebs that were there from previous shows.

I'm new although I've been reading the forum all year. Finally plucked up the courage to join. I have a question- I watched the show last night with the red button commentary which said that Gethin had charisma, his footowrk was accurate, his posture the best of the celebs, his flexibility was good as well as the timing. Both the experts agreed it would score heavily. Now I'm not a fan of Gethin, don't really know him, but I was shocked by the judges harsh and obviously wrong comments. It was the first week after all. They slated him. What did the people in the audience think? Did it look good? Who do I believe? The judges or the red button experts?

I was there and I enjoyed it. They were right in a couple of things though - he was quite stiff (well I thought) He definately has potential to get better if he can improve his hip action!

Trust me...... the red button commentary NEVER agrees with the panel's scoring

Thanks for that. I enjoyed the red button commentary, they seemed to break down the dance and look at everything. Just seems a shame on the first week to not even highlight positives to build up confidence. Hopefully he'll work on the hips for next week although I have to say he wasn't the only one being stiff. I haven't decided who I'd like to win yet. I'd like to see more dances first but I have to say Gethin seems to have the potential.

It was OK. The floor looked pretty crowded with everyone there, so there wasn't a lot of room.

However, the pros group dance was AMAZING!!! The best I have ever seen. I can't wait to see it again. I was totally blown away.

Could anyone tell me what happened to Stephanie and Vincent in the girls group dance. After they'd done their 'spot' they seemed to dance off to one side and didn't reappear. What happened, did it seem intentional

Is it going to be on every Sunday or just this once? It seems stupid to not to show it on a Saturday as in the past

What about the final? What an anti climax that would be to have the final results not live!

It's in the papers today - Stephanie hurt her back. She sat out the middle bit because the Producers didn't want to aggravate it.

Thanks tangoqueen and Thess, I was beginning to think it would remain a mystery. Hope the back doesn't cause too many problems for her, at least she was able to do a lift.

Yes, thanks everyone for getting to the bottom of this. I am pleased that my conspiracy theory appears to be wrong!
