Judging by the marks they were awarding I've decided I know nothing about dancing. I wasn't impressed by the boys Argentine tango at all but they got high marks.
That new woman with the ring through her nose said the same thing for everybody.

I thought the the making, especially by that stand in woman, was all over the place tonight.

In fact I am not sure that the judges, other than Craig, were watching the same show that I was watching.
I was stunned that Shirley marked Dan higher than Rose. It wasn't even in line with her own comments.

I think Dan is the most improved dancer but certainly not the best and the judges imo are so inconsistent it’s laughable - experts - you’re having a laugh!!!

Whose voting for Dan - must be costing his No 1 fan Benny a fortune :lolno:

How did Dan avoid the dance off? How can you do a Rumba without hip action. I've seen more hip action from a stick of celery!!!
It must be costing Bensham a small fortune to keep him in.

Bit of over reaction from Tilly's dad.

With the five who now remain it will be criminal if Dan survives another week

Tilly’s partner Nikatina did for her…his after dance interview “phone for us gestures” were childish…. no wonder she jabbed him in the ribs.

Pulling his shirt off and prancing about didn’t help either.

Credit where credits due, Rhys nailed it in the dance off :clap:

Yes, Tilly’s dad was over doing it with the fake tears just as the camera happens to point to him :roll:

Dan’s got to go. It was like watching someone dance by numbers. All the moves were there but no feel for the music.

Did anyone else notice that the first pair voted in the dance off also danced first. It’s always been in the past the second pair voted off that danced first which we always thought was unfair as they never had any time to practice, unlike the first couple. Perhaps they’ve had complaints.

I always thought that the order for the dance off was the same order in which they originally danced in the main show.

It may just have been coincidence in previous weeks.

And big Dan marches on. He's survived yet again despite all you lot writing him off since week 1. The quarters were easy, who needs hips, for mighty Dan and he's through fair and square. Come on Dan, next stop the semis.

He's my favourite you know, did I say. :thumbup: :lol: :thumbup:

The trophy is wonderful. It must have cost all of a fiver or was out of a very large Christmas cracker. No expense spared there :sarcasm:

It's been bye bye Dan for weeks according to some. Keep saying it and it's bound to happen. However I think that you may be right this week. Having said that AJ made a massive mistake and I have a feeling that it could be her for the chop. So come on Dan you can do it. Dan Walker, Strictly semi finalist. He's in with a chance.

Well done Rhys :clap:

Agree with Foxy, AJ and Dan in the dance off. Unless AJ cocks it up again it’ll be taxi for Dan.

Just goes to show how things can quickly change round from being an almost dead cert every week to skid row the next.

Personally I feel there are too many lifts and tricks in some of the dances which Len would have called ‘faffing about and time wasting’, and I would agree. It’s supposed to be a dancing competition not a circus act.

Having said that, what about that dive Rose done. That took some courage and trust. I’ll give her that one :thumbup:

Rose for the title ❤️
