When i went, everyone cheered very loudly in Manchester when Denise and Matthew came on, but the judges seemed to undermark them by quite a bit, the quickstep was fab and so was their rumba

Well obviously I am biased where Gethin is concerned, and really hope he does win some, I would be suprised if he didnt to be honest, he was very very popular on last series, like Tom he was never in the dance off until the semi final and unfortunately HE didnt get a pass on to the final, boy that would have been some final with the three most popular ones in it, but there you go cant go back, not sure his popularity will change just because he isnt with Camilla, unless someone objects very strongly to Flavia for some reason, which is up to them ofcourse but not logical. I think Flavia is a more exciting dancer than Camilla so I am looking forward to seeing what they will do together. I am sure that there will be some Matt fans from last year who wont be happy but from what I can see, most are fine with it, afterall Matt is busy doing his play and isnt on tour so having Gethin dance with Flavia gives Flavia a good chance of winning more events than if she was with Julian for instance !!!!.
I recently had the great pleasure of meeting Gethin and chatted to him about the tour, he said that he was given the chance to dance with Flavia or Kristina and was happy that it was Flavia because he knew her well already, which will obviously help them in their training. However whatever will be will be and I am just happy happy happy to have the opportunity to see him dance again. |

Interesting to hear he was given the choice between Flavia and Kristina, Jan. I'm a Matt and Flavia fan and I'll certainly be voting for her and Gethin. I love her with Matt obviously but if I had to pick another partner for her it would be Gethin because I did like him last season too. I think they'll dance well together. Will be interesting to see if she totally sticks to Camilla's choreography or changes some of it though because as dancers Flavia and Camilla are like chalk and cheese and I just think some of Cam's salsa choreo looked great on Cam but would look a bit odd on Flavia. Should be interesting to see what happens.
The GGs were rather hoping to see the Salsa shirt again but in his SCD articles he mentioned 'hot pink' for the tour but this may be a joke as we know he only wore a pink cravat on series 5 and wouldnt wear it otherwise. After our conversation was over I realised that he hadnt mentioned Lilia as an option but perhaps she had 'gone' to Julian already !! What we can be sure of is that he will give it his all, as under that rather reserved outer shell, beats the heart of a very competative man, who will be wanting to make up for the loss in the semi final and the narrow defeat on the xmas special last year. |

We were going to go on the coach to the O2 as well
But as the Birmingham dates are in half term it means I can go for the weekend. Seriously tempted to see if there are still tickets on the trip to the O2 because I would love to go twice!We are going to the O2 on 7th Feb (it's a Saturday) and we return home on the Sunday. That may be ok for you if you work. |

I wonder if Julian chose Lilia then! Thinking about it I guess he probably did, since he wouldn't have met Flavia or Kristina before. Quote:
I dont think they were always undermarked. Theres some clips on youtube where they were top of the judges leaderboard but still didnt end up in the top 2 when the votes were added on!

I'll be voting for Gethin at Brum (obviously). However I do think that the "Matt and Flavia" fans as opposed to the "Matt" fans will vote for Gethin - they had better do!
A lot of "Flavia and Matt" fans might decide they are only that...and therefore vote for who they think is the best on the night they are there. Personally, I probably will vote for Flavia on tour, being a "Flavia fan", as well as a "Matt and Flavia fan" and therefore be voting for Gethin in the process. I'm sure Flavia will be able to add the 'spark' that was missing from Gethin last year, to make his dances a bit more exciting to watch...and hopefully she will win on the night that I'm there.

I do like Flavia but i think Gethin would have been a lot better off paired with Kristina or Lilia (moreso Lilia).
I think out of all the female pros Lilia would have managed to get the best out of Gethin (dancing wise) and i'd love to see her win a few dates on the tour with him. ![]() Oh well i'm sure she will have a laugh with Julian. |

I do think its more because of her popularity then his. It probably was because she wasnt as popular as some of the other celebs on the tour (dont see why, she was a good dancer and seemed a nice enough person, as i said earlier its probably because she hasnt danced on our screens for a while..) |

The unpopularity (comparatively) of the Matt and Denise partnership may have down to a number of factors - 1) unlike any of the partnerships on tour this year they didn't really know each other before they started dancing together that year so the chemistry took a while to gel 2) people were used to seeing him dance with Alesha which he'd been doing up to the point of the tour - i.e Denise was his first partner after Alesha (apparently he even called her Alesha a few times at first) and so although a very good dancer she suffered from the after the Lord Mayor's Show factor. A lot of his fans feel in love with his partnership with Alesha and so possibly found him dancing with someone else a bit odd. Both factors were probably compounded by one of their dances being the intimate rhumba which invited comparisons with Alesha and highlighted the intial lack of chemistry - had they been doing the samba for example - which Denise danced in the final and is a less intimate dance that Alesha didn't really shine that much doing - they might have done better.
