Indeed .

I'm always so pleased to see Karen - it's all about me - Hardy get voted out. It's even more pleasing when her partner is useless.....and Gary was.

I've never been a fan of James Jordan, but I keep having saucy dreams about him. He made my tummy flip over a bit in the Swing routine. I think it may be love lol.

Cant wait for next week now. Love Quickstep, and if the Rhumba is done properly, it can be beautiful.

Can't say I was too impressed with this either. Strange as the pro demo is usually my favourite part. It was all to slow tonight. Pro Rumba, followed by V & F's Rumba-style-showdance, then Anton & Erin doing a slow ballroom. Where were Ian and Camilla, and Brendan for that matter? I'm getting a bit tired of the same few pros doing all the dances, seems a bit biased towards some IMO . I was rather hoping Ian and Camilla would join Anton and Erin, but no such luck. Ian is probably one of the best ballroom dancers on the show, but sadly one of the least favoured .

BorING!

True that Ian never gets much of a look-in. It's a shame...

At least Gary got the chop but 50 minutes was too much.

To be fair, Karen danced down with Gary and imo put up with quite a lot. Thank goodness he was voted off.

I have to say while I love James and Ola, Anton and Erin and Vincent and Flavia I also would like to see some dances from the other dancers. I don't know if it because they go for couples where one partner has gone out early.

Well I enjoyed the group rumba and was glad that they cut down on the number of couples. I was cringing at the thought of Anton doing it. It was much better to see him doing what he's good at.

I found Vincent & Flavia's routine lacklustre.:yawn:

But there was no dance practice, which maybe explains why the dancing was minging

I thought Andrew should have been in the bottom two, mainly because I wanted to see some more headbanging. I expect to see that it both the Rumba and Quickstep.

The singer - Andrea - was amazing. I was not familiar with him (though have read about him), and there is something in his voice which brings tears to my eyes.

I loved the pro dances tonight.

They did indeed ..... it completely ruined the ending to their samba during the final. Their costumes got clipped together by the mic but they just carried on anyway.

damn right! 2 years in a row. It was worth seeing Karen back just to see her get kicked out early again -oh the shame!

Karen is one of the most interesting and exciting pro’s. Losing her is such shame, if she had better partners she would have created some amazing routines. I don't get this hate for her.

I like the comment about the group rumba being a swingers' party.

I hate the rumba and it seems a lot of people share my view. What is specific to the rumba? The AT is an intimate dance but it does have proper moves and steps that are essential to it.

Nor me

She is no better or worse than any of the other pro's

My main gripe is that Gary danced latin twice when John had 2 ballroom dances.

Everybody who stays in after week 1 should get to try another style. Its blantant bias by the BBC John is getting lots of imo overrated hype so lets give him another ballroom keep him in another week

I would like to see John jive "not"

I really don't see why they just couldn't do a straight swap with them - those who do cha cha week one do waltz week 2 and vice versa - same with the girls!

It would help everyone keep track of the dances they still have to do - and save those bitty shows later on where we have everyone doing different dances.

Gary MIGHT have been better at Ballroom (stranger things have happened!) and we'd have seen John and Mark Jiving this time and Tom tango-ing.

I think we'd have had a very different leaderboard if that had happened.

I am afraid I disagree with you, I don't like Karen and haven't for a long time. You could say the same about Flavia, she went out early... People have their favourites and dislikes... each to their own
