Well we traditionally have a thread - so I am starting one.

All mothers of contestants are strictly (!!!) barred!

I'm rooting for JJ Chalmers! (I hope that's his name)

Sparklefizz Sat 05-Dec-20 20:23:44

He sings and presents a radio programme Calli

I don’t think Jamie was up to his usual standard tonight

Sparklefizz Sat 05-Dec-20 20:25:06

Ranvir and Maisie are the outstanding dancers tonight (imo). Jamie and Bill never really do it for me. I am just not keen on them and don't even know why.

ginny Sat 05-Dec-20 20:28:47

JJ and Bill in the dance off for me.
Maisie was my favourite tonight.

Ellianne Sat 05-Dec-20 20:29:00

I've always backed Maisie.
Bill and JJ in the dance off for me? Or possibly Jamie?

Puzzler61 Sat 05-Dec-20 20:30:33

I have voted x 3 for Maisie and Gorka (trying to save them from a dreaded dance off).

Beauregard Sat 05-Dec-20 20:31:17

JJ or Bill to go for me. Don't mind which.

Puzzler61 Sat 05-Dec-20 20:32:57

Me too Ellianne. Her performance tonight could go straight on the West End stage (in normal times).

Grannynannywanny Sat 05-Dec-20 20:33:08

I’d have Jamie and JJ in the dance off. But of course they all have fans who will vote for them regardless of how they dance.

So we’ll see what tomorrow evening brings. I really enjoyed the show tonight.

Bill was over marked tonight I think.

rafichagran Sat 05-Dec-20 20:41:56

HRVY was amazing, and I loved Craig's comments to him. I love Bill but did not like the dance.
I think the dance off should be JJ and Bill. I do like JJ but think there are better dancers.

Desdemona Sat 05-Dec-20 20:49:12

Really great show tonight smile

Bathsheba Sat 05-Dec-20 21:18:29

I agree with you merlot. I like Bill, but he was really quite mediocre tonight, I thought. For me it should be him and JJ in the dance off tomorrow.

lemsip Sat 05-Dec-20 21:35:43

my three votes went to Maisie and Gorka!

Casdon Sat 05-Dec-20 21:38:20

It’s amazing how different views can be isn’t it - I didn’t like Maisie's dance at all, I think she could go this week, if not then JJ.

Lucretzia Sat 05-Dec-20 21:42:18

I didn't like Maisie's dance either

HRVY has to be the winner

Charleygirl5 Sat 05-Dec-20 22:06:14

I thought Maisie was amazing- I do not usually like her.

WOODMOUSE49 Sat 05-Dec-20 23:59:25

Argentine Tango! What a difficult dance for a male celebrity. Bill did really well. He got my vote. Nearly got all three but I always spread them.
HRVY and Ranvir got the other votes.

Best dance of the night for me was Ranvir.

Think it could be JJ and Jamie in dance off.

I don`t like Jamie anyway, but tonight`s jive wasn`t all that great, too much time spent pushing desks around and jumping on and off them. I`d put him in the dance off, but don`t know who with, I liked all the others.

honeyrose Sun 06-Dec-20 00:19:58

I agreed with Shirley Ballas, the Argentine Tango is better performed by a male professional than a male celebrity because of the very strong lead required. I absolutely love the Argentine Tango - it’s my favourite dance to watch - but extremely difficult for a non-professional to master. All those kicks and flicks!

DanniRae Sun 06-Dec-20 09:12:26

I really don't like the Argentine Tango - I feel like saying "Get a room."
I think HRVY will be the show winner with Maisie as runner up.

Puzzler61 Sun 06-Dec-20 09:17:14

?
I feel like that about some of the Rumba’s Dannyrae.
I bet Ranvir and Gio’s will be smouldering, they definitely have chemistry together.

Ellianne Sun 06-Dec-20 09:20:07

Are Ranvir and Gio an item then?

Puzzler61 Sun 06-Dec-20 09:41:51

They say not, but as the judges have commented they certainly have an obvious ‘connection’. (does that mean attraction? Dunno).

eazybee Sun 06-Dec-20 09:59:47

HRVY is the best dancer and he also has that quality that makes you watch him to the exclusion of his partner; I never took my eyes off him during his performance.

Maisie lacks that; to me she is like a gymnast performing
increasingly complicated routines, very high powered but lacking grace and subtlety.
