*Strictly Come Dancing 2009 ~ Inc. SPOILERS!!*

I only caught up tonight, as usual

Shocked Ali and Brian were in the bottom two! Zoe looked uncomfortable I thought, even before she was in the dance off, I had to laugh at her 'gyrating'

Should have been Craig gone for me, but there were sympathy votes to get him to Blackpool I think

I just want to say that I thought the prefessional dancers were fab last night but sadly the Bee Gees were awful, their miming was awful, they looked like they were just going through the motions. Considering that segment of the show is recorded I would have thought they could have gone for another take.

D'oh! I didn't realise that bit was pre recorded. They were awful weren't they! You could barely hear them sing.

When are you going to watch with your friend?

I thought the same about Zoe....it was awkward to watch.

I agree Craig has definately had the sympathy vote - he has been bleating on about Blackpool for weeks, hopefully he will go this weekend.

I don't think many people do realise, it's only recorded about 45 mins before when the audience are in place, but you would have thought they could have tried for another take, it was very poor.

Don't know when I'll be going, as we've had half term hols Jayne has been in Spain for the last two weekends so no chance recently. It will literally be a case of finding out on a thursday if/when none of Darren and Lillia's friends or family want the tickets that particular weekend. I'm not sure who's having their tickets for Blackpool though, might ask Jayne when I catch up with her tomorrow. I can't imagine their friends want to travel up to Blackpool, idea for girly weekend ticking over

Craig has been milking the Blackpool thing fro some time now, very manipulative.

Craig has been milking the Blackpool thing fro some time now, very manipulative.

I'm not usre if I'd expect anything else. He's an actor so must have a reasonably big ego. On the other hand he was positively being egged on by Tess and Claudia to play the birthday/Blaclpool dream come true cards.

We're all asked to vote for "our favourite" and not for "the best dancer" so perhaps the producers should think about how that part of the message is presented to viewers.

I watched the show in a pub next to the NIA before we went to see Pink on Saturday, and the mute was on, so it was quite bizarre watching them dancing and not knowing what they were dancing to

Ricky W looked brilliant, even without the sound

I was shocked to see Zoe and Ali in the dance off, and I'm fed up of hearing about 'getting Craig to Blackpool' too. At least last year, when John Sergaent was being saved, he looked like he was enjoying himself

Glad I missed the BeeGees too, it sounds like they were quite embarrassing

Agree 100% - John was such a good sport last year and knew his limitations and at least he laughed at himself, like Len said at the end of Saturday's show it is a popularity contest but Craig has always taken it and himself sooooo seriously.

Ohhh girlie weekend sounds fab. I hope your friend can get you tickets.

I read on Digital Spy that Ricky Whittle has split with his Hollyoaks actress girlfriend of two years.
I wonder if he has come under the relationship spell of Strictly!

I thought that too when I read it earlier

 

[mandymouse]

It's SCD time

I loved Ricky W's tango, I didn't even see where he messed up as I was so caught up in the music

 

[mandymouse]

OMG, I'm exhausted watching Nat - wow, she did so well, and she looked like she really enjoyed herself

 

[mandymouse]

Jade was really good too

 

[Verity Chambers]

I don't usually enjoy Natalie's dances, but thought she was fab tonight.

 

[mandymouse]

Ali's dance was beautiful and she looks gorgeous

BTW, love Tess's dress too

 

[mandymouse]

Woah !! 40 for Ali and Brian ~ fantastic !!!!!

 

[Verity Chambers]

Loved Ali and Brian's dance, just gorgeous.

 

[mandymouse]

Ricky G's was entertaining, but it didn't blow me away

 

[mandymouse]

I wasn't sure about Lailla's dance. I just think that Anton looks awkward doing Latin dances - hubby thought it was good

 

[Verity Chambers]

I think all the scores have been fair up to now!
