Strictly Come Dancing 2015

I agree. Its not fair on the complete beginners who turn out to be terrific dancers (or otherwise Jeremy!)

I really took to Jeremy because of his enjoyment of it all. A sincere ray of sunshine and such fun to watch. He said it himself though - it was time he went because better dancers than him had been voted off. My money is on Jay or Georgia.

I would like to suggest to the producers that next time they recruit a group of complete beginners. At the beginning, Strictly was more like that. It would provide a 'level playing field' at least at first, before the naturally talented contestants began to emerge.

Teetime, haven`t you been to Blackpool Tower? Blackpool itself isn`t my choice for a holiday, but the Tower ballroom, well, that`s something else, a most beautiful place, and so nostalgic. I still remember Reginald Dixon at the organ as it rose from below the stage, playing "Oh I do like to be beside the seaside"!
As to the final winner, I`d love it to be Anita.

What was that all about?! Jamelia was much better!

Did the judges look embarrassed at (having to make?) that decision?

Yes, Jamelia was much better IMO.

Having just watched the first 5 minutes tonight (I haven't seen any up to now) the audience 's oohing and aahing completely put me off....I'm truly turning into an old grouch, aren't I?
I think it's lost it's way, over-exposure or something.

Sorry GN fans!

I also thought that Jamelia was so much better tonight. She was so gracious when given the result.

Replace Cladia and Tess, stop the judges dancing on, and stop Graig now giving really low marks which are done to cause a booing making him a panto demon king. Stop the rubbish filming celeb and pro doing really silly things like visiting the zoo, fairground etc, let's see them rehearse for more than ten seconds

Obvious the judges think Andre is chocolate , do they think more viewers whilst he is there

I was astonished that the three judges voted for Peter. I thought that Darcey, in particular, looked rather embarrassed and wondered if it had been a fit-up. Agreed with Len who would have chosen Jamelia.

Bit of gossip from last night's show. Peter and Janette had to dance twice in the dance off because the audience didn't give them a standing ovation and the producers were not happy.

Yes. DD read that out from Twitter. Obviously put up. I suppose Peter A will keep the viewers looking in.

Oooh! Good gossip wilma! Makes sense though -bit of a fit up. Poor Jamelia.

Every year or two the same thing happens. The judges usually say something about the dance off performances before they say who they want to save, and then we get a week like tonight where all they say is who they want to save (apart from Darcey who cocked up by saying Peter had improved) . And Len always disagrees with them.

Very off putting about the whole show

I didn't like all that 'yes, I deserve to be in the dance off' from Peter A - methinks he's overdoing it - and that wasn't a jive anyway!

Maybe Peter will be better in the coming weeks than Jamelia would have been, but the judging is supposed to be for each particular week`s performance, and Jamelia was definitely better than Peter this week. His kicks and flicks were non existant.

Thought the whole show was poor. Who on earth was the woman singer! Take that was awful, choreography was rubbish. Wrong person left.

I agree with you number and whitewave

The singers are terrible this series.

They are, aren't they? Cringe-making!

I thought that tonight was the first time that Len had disagreed this series. I was hoping he was going to because Jamelia was much better.

It's all going in the order I predicted to myself at the moment. I do actually like Jay and he's a really good dancer. I'm not sure what will happen now I think the standard is really high now and very even. I think Georgia might make it to the end but I'm hooked every week waiting to see what will happen and just love watching them all. I'd have loved to be a good dancer but I've always been hopeless, I envy people who can dance well.

I used to love Blackpool week until last year when the backing dancers and huge props were introduced. And the pro dances have been awful this year. When tonight's show first started I thought tonight's pro dance was going to be good - and then the tempo of the music sped up and it turned into a frantic mess.

The judges are supposed to choose which couple to save purely by the dance off performances, nothing else. I can think of a couple of theories about why Peter was saved. The producers might want to keep two men on the show a bit longer or perhaps Peter has agreed to do the tour. Both are conspiracy theories, but it does make you wonder!

After the show tonight both James Jordan and Darren Bennett (remember him?) both tweeted saying that Jamelia danced much better than Peter and the judges should have saved her.

I don't know if anyone saw the Ola Jordan interview in one of the Sunday papers, but she said the current producers constantly manipulate the show and it is nothing like it used to be and their controlling approach is one of the reasons she's decided this series will be her last.

Am I the only one that doesn't watch this? Perhaps because I am a rock chick at heart lol.
