I think you could be right. Sarah was dreadful last week but so much better this week.

If it is based on the dancing then it is a tough call - those that were no so good last week came good and the others were about the same.

So, as usual, we will have to dismiss the dancing and make do with it being a popularity contest and I have no idea how that will go

I agree. I'm not entirely comfortable with the concept, mainly because they keep banging on about it, but their dancing is great. They'll do well. How well depends on whether the LGBTXYQ Liberal vote is bigger or smaller than the disgusted of Tunbricge Wells vote.

A bit harsh Meg, would you say the same for the other 250,000 who tested positive last week?

no - but several of the the strictly lot refused to be vaccinated. and now are endangering the rest of the crew - cameras, dancers and all

... allegedly.

There is no doubt that Amy has not been vaccinated with the condition that she has, and she has said that she has been vaccinated. I cannot say for Tom but my gut instinct is that he will have been vaccinated as well

ok - I'll retract my comment then - but IF some are refusing the vaccine they aren't helping the others stay safe, are they

The dance off was a bit of a farce.

In my view Katie was the worse of the two couples. I’d have voted her out just for her irritating voice.

The dance off is always difficult.

I think the right one got voted off. Nina should stick to acting. She gave dancing a jolly good try though.

We though it was a pretty difficult choice. But I don't think it made much difference who went out in the dance off this week. Neither of them was on track for the final! Katie won't last many more weeks among the excellent dancers they have this year.

Won't be sorry to see Greg go out; too full of his own importance.
I think Rose is lovely. She looked beautiful and danced really elegantly.

As much as I can’t warm to her (annoying voice) I thought Katie was the better of the two in the dance off. Very surprised that Judi was kept in. She may have a bit of entertainment value, which is now wearing a bit thin, but has no dancing technique.

Dan looked totally dejected until his name was finally called. Unless he dramatically improves I’ll only give him another week or two at best.

007 Greg made another lucky escape, as for the two in the dance off it was even Stephens for me.

We thought Katie was better. Even we saw Judy's obvious mistake. How did Shirley not spot it? Second week running Anton has voted against the other two forcing Shirley to actually make a decision.

I'm watching some of the programme, goes on rather long with many of the celebrities I've never heard of. I agree with the comments about Rose and I also thought AJ's dance was lovely. I shall probably watch more as the number of contestants are whittled down.

Maybe that's BBC policy to give Shirley something to do, otherwise she'll never get a vote.
