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 think Greg will go...just awful and that oufit! Ugh. Possibly Tilly as well.
Loved AJ but judges didnt seem too. And John..last week was amazing... This week it just didnt work.

Sometimes think I am watching different dances to the judges, I didn’t rate Tilly this week, but most of them raved over her.

At least they seemed to agree on Greg’s dad dancing.

Bye bye Greg. hopefully. He really was the worst this week, by a long way.

I thought Tilly looked very clumpy this week and that dress did her broad shoulders no favours either.

Josianne Sat 16-Oct-21 22:11:04

Definitely YorkLady, I noticed that. Adam almost had to pull himself back!

Adam and Katya’s dance was exciting. Sportsmen have the strength for lifts and Katya is a fearless partner.

Loved their dance, watch it again if you can. Did they seem a bit too close at the end? like they only just remembered that they were in front of the cameras!!?

I didn’t like Tilly either and actually agreed with Craig’s comments. I didn’t like John and Johannes either.
I was moved by Judi and Graziano they have a good partnership.
Looks like it will be Greg leaving this week. ,

Josianne Sat 16-Oct-21 21:54:46

There are some who really look the part and give it their all, especially Rhys. I liked Tilly, Rose and Sara. I think Greg and maybe Dan in the dance off.

Grannynannywanny Sat 16-Oct-21 21:52:29

Dinahmo I agree about Tilly. I really want her to progress and remain in the competition. But I felt tonight wasn’t her dance and she might end up in the dance off.

Dinahmo Sat 16-Oct-21 21:47:50

Didn't like Tilly tonight. She seemed to get everything right but for me there was something lacking. I though the marks were too high. On the other hand, others whose performances were praised were marked rather low. Finding it difficult to decide who I want to win at the moment.

I love Rose and Giovanni and,also, Tom and Amy.

TillyTrotter Sat 16-Oct-21 21:23:27

I don’t think anyone has mentioned Dan yet tonight, have they? I’m not sure he is progressing very fast either so
Greg and Dan in the dance-off?

Grannynannywanny Sat 16-Oct-21 21:19:16

I agree it looks like the end of the road for Greg. He doesn’t seem to have progressed. If anything, tonight was his worst performance.

annodomini Sat 16-Oct-21 21:16:07

I agree that time's up for Greg. He has never looked as convincing to me.

lavenderzen Sat 16-Oct-21 21:08:52

Good show again tonight, the standard is very high this year. Thought Adam and Katya were brilliant. I also love John and Johannes too. Think Greg should go this week. Superb night.

Sweetpeasue Sat 16-Oct-21 21:07:16

What a strange night. I felt a bit let down by the John's American Smooth. He's beautiful dancer but not keen on routine. Rhys is really good but a bit wild.Sara and Tilly shined for me, such control and passion. Although Adam and Katya's Tango intense and powerful I felt Adam didn't have enough steps. Greg was weakest wasn't he? Watched him through my fingers!

Sparklefizz Sat 16-Oct-21 21:04:23

I didn't like John and Johannes' dance tonight. The choreography seemed all wrong.

Adam's lifts were spectacular. I thought Rhys' samba was too frantic (but then, what do I know?)

I voted for Sara (her tango was stunning and the music was beautiful), Tilly and Tom (I loved Tom and Amy's old style glamour!)

Suspect Greg to go home - it was like watching dad dancing. I've no idea who else might be in the dance off with him as all the others are so good.

rafichagran Sat 16-Oct-21 20:56:49

Agreed Tilly he made them look effortless.

Grannynannywanny Sat 16-Oct-21 20:32:12

I agree, Rhys and Nancy were wonderful. But I actually get more excited by contestants like Sara who make great progress each week. Rhys is amazing but I feel he’s been performing like a professional since week 1, if you know what I mean.

rafichagran Sat 16-Oct-21 20:27:07

Rhys and Nancy were amazing tonight.

Grannynannywanny Sat 16-Oct-21 20:22:57

No idea how “once” got in there!

Grannynannywanny Sat 16-Oct-21 20:20:05

Sarah and Aliaz were fabulous. Sarah has made amazing progress since once week 1.

TillyTrotter Sat 16-Oct-21 20:10:28

Rhys & Nancy look like a pair of professionals to my eyes.

Grannynannywanny Sat 16-Oct-21 19:55:43

Greg could be heading for the dance off tonight. I thought he looking quite promising in the rehearsal clips but he looked awkward during his performance.

They've confirmed that there'll still be an elimination this weekend.
