Watching the body language on ITT - very telling

Sweet jesus I'm impressed she didn't smack him in the teeth, the number of times he spoke over her.

I'm sure she doesn't hate him but it was a classic example of someone who never lets you finish your god damn sentences. So you feel you have to get in there first, and even then they still wont let you get a word in edgeways and you could see she was getting frustrated.

Please remember Anton, I and others rather enjoy listening to what Flavia has to say aswell as you.

i don't know how much?

*waits for punchline*

I'm not sure if she hates Anton, but I would be annoyed if a very talkative man sat next to me, wouldn't let me get a word in without rudely interrupting .

I doubt she hates him but he was really getting on my nerves! Maybe he should try letting her finish a sentence

Dont know about the body language but how much better was that bit where they showed the fleckle than bloody Len's master class........if Flavia did hate Anton she could have done some damage with those killer heels.

Anton does talk a lot.

Flavia contributed the latin content of Anton's Dance Book so she cant hate him that much.

I so enjoyed their 'master class' in the Fleckerl. Just realised watching it that it exactly the same as the steps known as the Argentine Crosses in the Samba. The Viennese Waltz is a dance I have never done as yet, so thanks to Anton and Flavia I now know how to do that step.

This is why its so good they have this segment! I really like it, I wish they had more like it tbh but I bang on about that all the time so I'll shut up.

I prefer to listen to what he has to say anyway. It is very informative, and I also like the way he always has something complimentary to say about the other pros and something encouraging for the celebs, without being smarmy about it. I think he is excellent in this spot.

Perhaps if they were on alternate spots i.e. separately, on different days, that would solve the problem.

To be fair, he usually has something more interesting and significant to say than her.

I think they both have interesting things to say. But it does annoy me when Flavia is in the middle of making a point and Anton interrupts and talks over her. That is just rude.

It must be like being back with Vincent!

He does talk a lot doesn't he?

I don't think she hates him ...but i really wish he would let her finish whats she's saying, instead of butting in !

Yes it seems she might be a bit frustrated. Claudia could control it a bit more as well I think.

yeh it must be annoying not being able to finish a sentence without being interupted, dont think they hate each other though!

OK, maybe hate was a strong word, but she kept shooting him daggers - unsurprising considering the amount of times he interrupted

LOL! Last week some people on the ITT thread thought Anton was talking too much and others thought Flavia was talking too much!

Tonight I really didn't notice one talking more than other, but I did notice that Anton couldn't remember Rachel's name for a moment!

I must admit I didn't see a problem at all. Yes, Anton spoke more than Flavia, but all his comments were pertinent and they both spoke well, and there was at least one section where they alternated comments comfortably.

Not sure about the suggested rift between the two.
All I know is that Anton and Flavia's informative section of tonights ITT was the best bit of the whole show, and made
Len's so called master class with Claudia, appear completely
irrelavent. In fact everything that Len does on ITT makes very poor entertainment.

Anton did talk over Flavia on at least one or two occasions. I think it didn't help that Claudia has a time to keep and there are so many pertinent points to make. Anton is just trying to force everything into the tight section they were given. Flavia is more placid and so might say less and before she could continue, who knows, Claudia might suddenly just wraps everything up, leaving Flavia hanging in the air (like she did to Will towards the end of the ITT).

Since the "comedy" of Claudia falling over her own feet in the master class has worn more than a bit thin, why can't we have two pros do a proper master class, so we can actually see what some of the specific steps that the judges always go on about are actually supposed to look like.

I agree CityofRoses, I think a pro masterclass would be a lot more useful, or even just a little demonstration of some of the basic steps of each dance - preferable at least to Len's limericks...

That's exactly what I thought tonight and the pros are so used to slowing things down to teach the celebs how to do the steps that it would work really well.
