So, fellow fans, what do we think of the lineup? A very mixed bunch, personally only know of five, I’m sure we will soon have our favourites. Can’t wait for the glitz and glamour to brighten the long dark nights looming?

I agree with all the above comments, and Rose and Giovanni made me cry too. So genuine and sincere.
I am a bit disappointed in Tom, though I might be measuring him against the other Mcfly members on Strictly. Rhys was brilliant. I think Tilly, and maybe Dan or Sara will be in the dance off.

Please, please don’t anyone come on this thread with a spoiler ?

Sorry I didn’t mean I was going to find out the result and leak it. I would be the last person to do such a thing. I meant I can’t wait to see the result show tomorrow.

I thought that Rhys was fabulous with his Charleston and I loved Sara and of course John and Johannes. I think AJ should be in the dance-off, possibly with Tilly again. I thought Dan upped his game- he has never danced before and is trying so hard. The standard was so high tonight and I do listen to Craig and Anton's comments. Such a pity the dance-off is not shown tonight.

I voted to keep Dan, Rhys and Sarah. Even if the public vote went against them Rose and Giovanni would win in a dance off-unless it was between Rose and John-unlikely, but then what?

Charleston was wonderful. Rose and Giovanni’s dance so beautiful. I’ve never seen such a lovely partnership as theirs.

Loved Rose and Giovanni tonight it was so very beautiful and moved me to tears.
In a very different style I loved Rhys and Nancy’s Charleston. He was made for that dance.
AJ was disappointing but the music did it no favours I thought. I hope she can avoid the dance off ?
I know you can find spoilers but can’t wait for the result show.

Oh my goodness!! What an incredible show tonight.
Rose and Giovanni's performance was just so touching. Have to agree with everyone about the it special partnership. Very rarely seen one so in tune and close like this one. I love music and to see the dance movement without sound was incredibly moving. It made me so grateful for my hearing but to appreciate movement like that without sound--very emotional.
Charlestown by Rhys--fully deserved 10s--astounding energy.
John and Joanne's beautiful dancing, they're perfect combination.
Disappointment of the night was obviously AJs Paso but she'll come back. I honestly felt the choreography didn't have enough of the flamenco movements for AJ IMO.
Absolutely ACE performances now.
Loving it!!

TillyTrotter Sat 13-Nov-21 20:26:59

I voted to keep Rhys, Rose and John in this week.
Maybe Tilly and Tom in the bottom two?

rafichagran Sat 13-Nov-21 20:24:59

I also loved Tom's dance, but it was helped by the Goo Goo Dolls sing Iris. My favourite song ever

Grannynannywanny Sat 13-Nov-21 20:17:09

I loved tonight’s show. If the voting was fair then I think Dan and Sara should be in the dance off. But we know it’s down to popularity until the judges get to decide in the dance off each week. I have a feeling Dan will be safe for another week.

Rhys and Nancy were my favourites tonight. Their performance was mesmerising.

Millie22 Sat 13-Nov-21 20:14:21

Rose is such an inspiration. That was a really special dance.

HurdyGurdy Sat 13-Nov-21 20:09:07

I thought Dan danced really well tonight. I didn't like AJ's dance at all - she's much better than that.

Rhys - oh my goodness. That was a frantic Charleston. I loved it.

But Rose. What can you say. I thought her dance was phenomenal. Absolutely beautiful.

I thought both Tilly and Sara looked very trim tonight. I think I need to take up ballroom dancing grin

lavenderzen Sat 13-Nov-21 20:03:28

I see Lucca.

Rose's dance was very good, John (as always) was brilliant,
Yes, I was slightly disappointed with AJ, perhaps just one of those weeks for them.
I think the standard has been so high this year, it's been a real pleasure to watch, although I do wish Adam was still in.
Roll on next week.

Lucca Sat 13-Nov-21 19:59:02

And you think 4 was a good score for Dan's dance, don't be ridiculous!

I haven’t watched it yet That was just a general comment

Casdon Sat 13-Nov-21 19:58:48

I really liked Nadia’s dress, but Dan’s was the worst dance I thought. I hope his fans don’t save him again, as it wouldn’t be fair to whoever else has to go.

Sparklefizz Sat 13-Nov-21 19:58:28

WOW WOW WOW!!!!!
Rose & Giovanni - so beautiful. When the sound went off I started to cry. Gio seems to have so much respect and love for Rose.

Shame about AJ - it was disappointing.

Rhys was fantastic - wonderful dancing, legs like rubber!! And such fun.

Motsi's dress hurt my eyes sad

Rose is a revelation to Strictly. Her dance with the “silent pause” got to me. I don’t think I’ve seen Giovanni so in tune with a celeb partner. He is in awe of Rose, as am I.

Just beautiful. A real eye opener. Loved it

rafichagran Sat 13-Nov-21 19:55:52

Rose and Gio amazing.

LadyStardust Sat 13-Nov-21 19:55:17

Oh heck, Rose made me cry again! I might have to change my mind about all 3 of my votes going to Rhys! smile

Calendargirl Sat 13-Nov-21 19:53:05

No, I thought 4 was harsh, but I still think Craig is the one to reckon with.

Lucca Sat 13-Nov-21 19:30:14

Yes he’s the only one I listen to as he doesn’t gush

rafichagran Sat 13-Nov-21 19:25:20

Rhys and Nancy are amazing. Loved that Charlston.I love AJ so I am disappointed.
