I'm glad you said that about the glasses - I always thought it was just me not 'getting' it!

Is this fashionista South African?

Can't quite pin the accent down.

Yup, Ende - she is.

I don't know exactly what toned feet are, but I want them! Especially if it would mean my legs looked like Lisa's!

yes she is south african - but having your own show where you dress people to mimick your own style (which is dire) regardless if it will suit them does not maketh a fashionista.

Love Rachel, but I always think she doesn't put enough oomph into her steps. Just my opinion, of course!

Why did Craig & Bruno swap I wonder?

Vincent seemed a little subdued.

I Hope what Claudia says is true and Jessie goes this week.
I quite like all the other female celebs.

Me too.

What was wrong with Rachel/Vincent? I just turned it on where Claudia stroked her hair and said something like "I can't stand the thought that you're..." and walked off?

(what crap timing is that? Turn it on 1 minute before the end?)

I'm feeling better now that Jessie danced at the end . Hopefully the curse will live on .

Why didn't they show Jodie and Ian in the Friday panel thing? I really wanted to know what music they're dancing to and what their Rumba looks like? They didn't show them last time either. It's so not fair. They always make sure Christine and Matt and Brendand and Lisa are on. Have they forgotten that they're in the competition?

Also in the studio, they sat patiently behind Jessie and Darren only to be ignored. Still, I'm glad it was Jessie and Darren dancing, and hope the curse lasts another week..

Didn't get to hear what Cherie and James are dancing to either, did we?

Just watching the girls on tonights show I found it all a bit dull and cannot get excited about any of them, compared to the excitement Alesha and Kelly injected into the show last year.

Just clicked in to catch up on tonight's show ....

All this week there have been loads of posts on this thread about how the standard of ITT has been falling. Given that it's Friday, I expected there to be loads of posts on tonight's prog - instead there are just a handful and, to me, that speaks volumes.

The show's hardly worth watching these days .... and even less worthy of comment, it would seem.

Come on Auntie Beeb .... less inane drivel from the judges, Claudia and naff "fans" and let's have more training footage and segments like Anton & Flavia's take on the choreography

I completely disagree.
Last year, Alesha was the only one who I genuinely looked forward to.
This year I anticipate Cherie, Christine, Rachel and Heather with bated breath.

Help, I'm confused. Why have the girls only had 'three days' (I think that's what Cherie said) to learn their dance? Why haven't they had 2 weeks? Are they given limited time to learn their dances, in some way banned from the studio for a week, and if training hours are policed in some way, why are the training hours so wildly different between couples? If Mark and the other men are not allowed to train this week, how has Mark's hours gone up so he's still first? Sorry to be stupid but I just don't get it.

The ony female celebs i really liked last year were Alesha and Letitia. Whereas this year i think all of them are quite likeable. Cheries my favourite of them, i hope this week 4 doesnt strike for James tomorrow!

I dont get it either.
Unless some of the pros have been teaching their partners several dances in the past 5 weeks but others only focused on there first dance, hence the variation in training hours?

All the girls are very likeable this year, but there is no one I look forward to seeing dance like Alesha, Kelly and I must add Gabby of last year. I'm not to fussed who goes this year as long as its not a good dancer. Thats only my opinion and I don't expect others to agree.

[quote=Cat Balou;28016459]I agree!

Way too much Len for my liking. In fact any Len is too much for me. Sorry to any Len fans but I find him more irritating each year.

Me too:yawn: I used to like and respect Len, but now I think, since he has been doing DWTS in LA, he is just so full of himself

I just think it is time for some new blood on the judging panel as their comments and marks are becoming predictable - listening to Anton's analysis this week on ITT was a breath of fresh air and I'd like more of this style of commentart, especially on the judges' panel

I'm looking forward to seeing all the girls dance, even Jessie who I don't like. Having said that I think things will get more interesting next week when the groups join together. I don't think 4 weeks dancing separately has been a good idea.

Totally agree. He was my favourite judge also but after he showed his nasty, vicious, finger wagging side last year to Kelly I have totally gone off him. As you say his comments and marks are too predictable.
Beside the Pro's surely ITT could find some other Dance Judges in the UK to give some independant opinions of the celebs dancing.

Len is soo annoying! I can tell which couples he is going to mark low tomorrow!

thats why i dont think its fair having him, Arlene and Craig doing training updates.
Why not just let Flavia, Anton, Karen and whoever else gets voted out do it! It'd be far more interesting as they know what they talking about
