Not so sure, he's starting to look past his dance by date.

Jacqui Smith and Caroline Quentin in the dance off, with Jacque Smith getting the taxi for one. I've seen wood with more movement than she had last night. And god knows who Caroline Quentins hair stylist is, Sweeny Todd I reckon.

And love myself Shirley Ballas is getting on my nerves with her keep on getting up showing how the dance moves should be done, when really all she's doing is showing off her tits, which to be honest are nothing special.
That was uplifting Stephen :)

I was surprised to see Jamie in the dance off as I was expecting to see JJ.

Jacquie was gracious in defeat and will miss her as I was enjoying the laughs :thumbup:

There was no competition in the dance off.

Jason Bell is dancing on dangerous ground and needs to up his game.

I was looking forward to movie week but last night it just fell flat for me. Some choices of dances and movies did not really gel.
Some good performances though.
Ranvir was excellent for a non dancer.

Way too much whooping and cheering.

The show is going down hill fast in my view. Too much bull sh*t and stringing out for me. I fell asleep towards the end.

I think that a lot of that is due to Covid restrictions. It does not help by not having anyone in the audience.

I thought that the scores were a bit all over the place last night - and what was Shirley on?

With you on that, the Beeb now seem to like silly cheering and screeching on everything, Bargain Hunt now sounds like a tweenies party.

I quite enjoyed it and taking the restrictions into consideration I thought they did a cracking job with the special effects etc
I’ve consulted the tea leaves and it will be Nicola and Jason in the dance off with Jason receiving the knockout punch. :thumbup:

They were the bottom two on the judge's scores but will the politically correct and LGBT lobby let Nicola fall? I doubt it yet.

I agree with OL. The special effects are good although there is far too much padding for my liking. Not really interested in what grandma, great aunt Lil and the dog think about it and some of the feigned emotion is irritating but still a good watch in the circumstances.
I have consulted my pure Javean coffee grinds and they concur with OL's Aldi dustbags that Jason will go out (and the lovely Luba out as well :cry: ) and Nicola will stay another week to maintain the BBC's PC stance for the LGBT cause but she is not good.
Be glad to see the back of Nicola anyway as she can't do anything without mentioning the word boxing. :yawn:

Well that went to plan though I'm really surprised the lobby clearly didn't back Nicola.
