Strictly Come Dancing 2011

[Chilly]

What was the show like over the weekend ? I have recorded it, and hope to catch up with it during the week. I did catch the end of the results show and was pleased that Edwina went (I'm not over keen with her), and I hope Nancy goes this week (I really cannot warm to her at all)

Some really good dances. Nancy/Anton was awful.

Has everyone heard that Jason is so good because he's been learning for months.

I hadn't heard that - I just guessed that he was good because of all the musical theatre he has done.

I'm glad Edwina went - not because of her dancing as she seemed to be trying - but because of her whining and moaning at the judges.

I'm a little sad that the judges seem to be giving marks for entertainment value now. I thought they were there to judge the purer dancing side of things and the public vote was for how entertaining the public are finding it.

SOme of the other celebs aren't happy because they think its cheating.

Just a few comments tonight:-

The run of bad luck and bad dancers for tvam/gmtv/whatever-it-is-now is continuing.

I don't think Dan was the worst but he certainly wasn't very good.

It was nice to see Anton not messing about - even if Nancy wasn't good.

Why are the judges surprised that Jason can change character so well - don't they know he's an actor? (I still loved his dance whatever advantages he has!)

Harry was my favourite tonight.

But I do wish the judges would judge the dances and stick to the rules - if they don't what's the point of rules?

It was a great show this week. I loved Alex's, Jason's and Harry's dances (and even Robbie's wasn't too bad)

I'm gutted that Nancy didn't go, she's doing my head in I get the impression that Anton isn't overly keen on her either

I know what you mean about sticking to the rules, why does Brendan still continue to put lifts in when they're not allowed ? I'm getting tired of him now

Bring on next weekend

I wish Nancy had gone last night, I don't like her at all...

I loved Jason & Harry's dances this week - I really want Harry to win.

 

[queendisney]

only just come back from Vegas so have only just caught up with the dancing.
I don't care that Jason has had extra lessons, he is dedicated and I LOVE him.
Nancy...omg...she is just dreadful and is also doing my head in!
Was surprised that Anita seemed to be not as good as I thought she was going tobe from the first prog. But I just love Stickly and when thats done I am well into Dancing on Ice!

I missed the main show last night, but I've just watched the Results Show and once again I am disapointed that Nancy has survived another week. At least when John Sergaent and Ann Widdecombe were saved in previous seasons, they looked like they were enjoying themselves, oh well, maybe next week she'll go. Shame Rory had to go tonight

On a positive note, I absolutely loved Vincent & Flavia's dance, they're amazing

 

[Dimplenose]

Oh, Rory has gone - and after that beautiful quickstep last week.

I'm sure everyone is voting for Anton's comedy and not for Nancy's dancing.

I got quite anxious when Jason hadn't been saved until the last minute.

I'm very much looking forward to the Halloween special. It's a shame Vincent won't be taking part as he looks a little like Count Dracula (actually he looks more like "the Count" from Sesame Street but that's close enough!)

[mandymouse]

Is anyone watching It Takes Too ? I've had the opportunity to watch it all week, as my zumba classes have been cancelled (except tomorrows) due to half term, and I am loving Zoe Ball, she's doing a great job, and those pink shoes she was wearing tonight are fab-u-lous !

 

[mandymouse]

I've just caught up with last nights show, and on the whole I really enjoyed it. I always find the Hallowe'en Special to be more show than technical, but there were some good performances, I really liked Jason, Harry & Alex. Russell's dance was fun, and I really felt for poor Chelsee and her wardrobe malfunction (though thankfully we couldn't see anything). I didn't enjoy Robbie's dance this week, and Nancy HAS TO GO !

Can't wait for the results show tonight

 

[queendisney]

Yes totally agree...

Didn't enjoy Russells dance quite so much this week and thought that he was maybe holding back slightly because of his knee problem.

Who in heavens name is keeping Nancy in

I thought that Robbie actually looked like he just walked through his whole performance! So pleased Alex did well this week.

Fav this week was Jason although I didn't think their costumes were very spooky compared to the others...

oh and LULU...hated that dance and Audley I think will be in the bottom two, hopefully with Nancy (who has to go NOW)

God I love Strickly

 

[Dimplenose]

I didn't like Holly's dance this week - I think the judges must have been watching something else.

I loved Jason's little "hop" in the quickstep - beautiful.

Alex was a lor better - and James a lot happier.

Oh yes, Nancy must go - but poor Russell wasn't up to scratch so I don't think he's safe.

Well once again I didn't vote - but I'll still grumble if Nancy is saved.

 

[Tinks1984]

Hmmm, mixed bunch this week for me I wasn't sure what to think!

I didn't enjoy Brendan and Lulu, I thought she looked clumsy! Didn't enjoy Holly and Artem either, found that rather odd

I felt so sorry for Chelsee, poor little thing, she'd done so well! Least Pasha managed to be stood in the right place for us not to see anything.

I enjoyed Harry, as usual. Thought Jason was great, he does wonders to put in the acting too. The make up and costumes were out of this world!

Looking forward to results, for me, I hope it's Nancy's time to go - had yet another shocker! She doesn't even listen to the judges, she was even rude when Bruce introduced her!

 

[Dimplenose]

Oh, what a frustrating night.

I really missed Len - he is a major reason that I watch (& I'm still pining for Arlene )

Once again too many far too close close-ups - I WANT TO SEE THE FOOTWORK!!

Poor Jason the rumba is such a stupid (non-)dance. I hope he gets through tomorrow just so that I can see his ball room again.

Harry too was disappointing, but hopefully won't have any problems getting through.

I didn't get Russell's dance.

I loved Holly this week - poor Artem his leg looked really painful after the dance.

And Chelsee

Things are hotting up now even the bad scores are quite high.

 

[mandymouse]

I totally agree Libby, a very frustrating night, and all because of Jennifer Gray and her 8 paddle. She scored Lulu and Audley too high to start with and didn't have anywhere to go after that, she drove me insane Roll on Len coming back

For me Chelsee was the best last night, I loved her dance, and Harry was good too. I wish they'd drop the Rumba, it's too uncomfortable for the celebs and for us to watch too

I hope Lulu leaves this week, I don't enjoy watching her at all

 

[mandymouse]

Yay, so glad Lulu left tonight

 

[Dimplenose]

I was a bit worried about Jason for a while.

Lulu had improved a lot but there are still times when she's being dragged around the floor (in the opening credits it looks as though someone has pushed her towards Brendan )

Did they say Artem has hurt his back as I thought it was his leg? - He looked in a lot of pain when sittin gon the sofa, poor thing.

Hopefully there will be more news about his injury tomorrow night.

 

[Dimplenose]

Oh dear, Len! I was so looking forward to having him back but he was just a grumpy so and so tonight!

The dancing was great - apart from Russell and Audley. I expect Russell's fans will save him. Everyone else is just at another standard of dancing altoether.

I watched Holly's rumba with interest. It was rather good for my most hated dance, but being a girl makes such a difference. Brendan didn't appear to do much at all so male celebrities doing that dance don't stand a chance of looking good.
