Strictly

I shall miss Ed, it's been great seeing someone who doesn't take himself too seriously. He made me laugh so much.
I think it's clear who the winner will be.

I wonder if Ed is doing the live tour, they usually include the comedy act in that.

I think that judge Rinder may well be out this coming week-difficult to know who will be in the dance off with him. I would like to see Ore in the final as he has had no dance experience. Danny takes it all too seriously and his smug look gives me the impression he thinks he is going to win. It will not be the same without Ed and I never thought I would see the day when I would say that.

I fear that Claudia and AJ will be in the dance off again next week, though Judge Rinder will be knocked out. Claudia has done wonderfully despite having no dance experience. This weekend her personality was emerging in the Argentine tango and even Craig gave her 9 points.

Yes it felt a bit as though the judges were 'marking her card' by highlighting that her acting was only just emerging. If Judge goes then so do I. I wonder what I'll find to watch on the other channels, a nice film maybe. BBCs loss.

Me too Jane

Blimey, Elaine Paige was a bit off key tonight.

I agree Alima, completely underwhelming.

I actually turned over while she was on...

(switched channels, I mean! )

Showing her age? How sad I have such happy memories (no pun intended) of her when she was younger.

I suppose it was inevitable as the others are so good but I will miss Judge Rinder. A lovely man and very entertaining.

Well that's me finished with Strictly this season. Wonder what I'll watch next Saturday...

Me too Alima

Yes, Judge Rider was good,has anyone watched his show? When is it on? I like Claudia - adorable, she looks about 12, hope she's in the final.

I don't give a hoot who wins , shall not watch

And me. Think Danny's bound to win, but I can't pretend to care about any of those who are left now...

I still want Louise and Kevin to win. I thought their dance was amazing.

I think the costumes for everyone this year are excellent.

Elaine Paige is 68.

Sadly many voices just do not wear well, perhaps (some)men are different but I believe José Carreras gave an embarrassing performance not so very long ago.
Best to be remembered in one's prime.

Paul McCartney and Elton John are two others who should perhaps rest on their laurels...

I thought that the judge was a perfect gentleman this evening- I will miss him a lot.

Next week I think that Gabriella and Ore will be in the dance off with Ore going.

I do not want to see Danny win but I think that it may be inevitable as he appears to have a large fan base.

but I believe José Carreras gave an embarrassing performance not so very long ago.
Oh no, glad I missed that one.

We were singing carols yesterday and I could hear a quavery old lady's voice and realised it was me.

I would have found it difficult to judge between Ore and Rob Rinder

Charlie, who is Gabriella?
