I thought Lee did the better dance off but Charles lifts probably swung it for him.Mervyn and Trish wrote: 07 Oct 2018, 22:07Unusuall, the right evictions based on dance ability so far

Re: Strictly 2018
I think the doc only just scraped through. My monies on him being outed next week.
I agree with Onelife, I thought Lee's dance off was the better of the two.

There's no real numpty left now. This is going to get tough but Charles and the Doc both need to up their game.

Re: Strictly 2018
I love the fact that the standard has improved so much with no comedy acts.
It is after all, supposed to be a show about dancing.
The overall standard in my eyes (non dancer) is very, very good.
Even the guy who got booted last night was pretty good.
The Pussy Cat girl is really good but then I think her mate Nicole won the American version a few years back.
They have the advantage of being fit.
Physically I mean .. Err, Erm … forget it. Said too much !

I thought Faye was incredible on Saturday night. That quickstep of hers was FAST.

It seems there is a bit more than dancing going on.

Re: Strictly 2018
I've not seen Strictly for the past few weeks and have really lost touch and no-one seems to have been posting. Has the interest gone? I did see the Results show last night when Shaun got his marching orders. I saw his and Katya's dance in the Dance Off and I thought it was dreadful - I was waiting for the music to start - shows what I know about music, or dancing come to that. Who is worth watching? Is there a front runner? Hopefully I'll see this coming Saturday's - depends when the F1 Grand Prix is on - John's favourite!

Re: Strictly 2018
I think the problem this year is that nobody has heard of the majority of the "celebrities" and that there is no "novelty" act this year either.
I am beginning to think that SCD has run its course and its days are numbered - one, or perhaps two, more seasons and that will be the end of it.

Re: Strictly 2018
Neither couple danced as well as the first time, but I personally thought the wrong couple went out.

Re: Strictly 2018
I thought Faye Tozer and Giovanni Pernice Theatre and Jazz routine was top notch

Re: Strictly 2018
I rather like watching Kevin from Grimsby and his partner Stacey Dooley. Considering she is a learner dancer she does really well and she has a great personality to go with it.
That American girl, Ashley Roberts is pretty good isn't she?

Re: Strictly 2018
Good point Stephen. She'd drive you round the twist. Not keen on the over exuberance either - very unBritish old chap!!!

Re: Strictly 2018
I think strictly needs to choose between celbs with dancing experience and those from a none dancing background...come the final stages of the competition the voting public take this into account and vote accordingly.

Well I've seen it all now.
Perfect score to a Charleston, to the Lonely Goatherd.
