redfrock Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 For all Craig gets a lot of boos, in my opinion he is the one judge who is realistic. A 10 from him is worth a lot more than a 10 from Len (who is getting on my nerves more and more as the weeks go on!) I totally agree - I think Craig is constructive, even if at times he might seem harsh, but he always explains his reasoning. You can always guarantee that he will give one point less than the others. I too am finding Len starting to grate, and the arguing unprofessional! Bruno remains my favourite however - I would love to have him round for dinner. I think it would be a riot! Sorry still can't like Lisa and Brendan. While I appreciate her dancing looked good this week I simply cannot stand the simpering and smugness I suspect Austin, Rachel and I hope Tom are in the final (he darn well should be). If Lisa is in instead of Tom I shall be ever so disappointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I agree...Craig can seem a little harsh at times, but he is never really wrong. He reminds me of Tin Tin in the looks department. Rachel is the one I can't appreciate. Her dancing is lovely but as a personality she is completely devoid of any oomph. OS went to see her "live" once and she mimed through the entire thing.....and got her words wrong. *tuts* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I'm afraid my eye wandered to the singers during Rachel's first dance!! So it really didn't hold my attention. I didn't really like her paso either. I really don't know what Tom has to do to get any recognition from the judges. They ask for wiggly hips in the latin dances and he does it and they accuse him of being too camp. I loved his waltz and Moon River is one of my favourite songs. We loved Lisa's dances as well, she looks so elegant. Austin's first dance was lovely but I agree the content wasn't very good in his second all the performance was very good. Its time for Christine to go, she was a bit limp and not really giving it her all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Well Christine has gone. Now the competition gets really serious. The professionals were super tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Rosie now has both Phil and I watching this! Christine needed to go - lovely girl, but just not a talented dancer (anyone else think that she looks like Melanie Sykes?) The others (including the pros) danced blindingly, such a shame that Rachael has no personality as she's such a good dancer and very pretty. My money is on Tom to win.

Seagazer Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 My hubby thinks that Tom will go out next. I so hope he is wrong. He thinks if Tom goes in the bottom two the judges will vote him out as they seem to prefer the other three. I'm doing my best voting each week but not sure I can do it on my own..... Hope there are lots of other Tom fans out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..lay a little egg for me Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Loved Lisa's Cha Cha Cha . I'm sure she elbowed Brendan in the face at one point though. I replayed it and it certainly seemed like it. I thought that too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope there are lots of other Tom fans out there Well I'm voting for Tom too, so you're not alone! I do hope he wins. I have supported him from Day 1 even though I didn't know him before (not a Holby fan). He seems so sweet and romantic. He is like a kid in a sweetshop when he gets good comments/marks and his enjoyment of the dancing is palpable. COME ON TOM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Medusa - I agree. I never watch Holby City. I originally plumped for him as he has a look of my DD's boyfriend But he is so sweet (same as DD's boyfriend!!). He is always the first to congratulate other people and he enjoys the dancing so much. He looked so ecstatic when they called his name on Saturday.

chelsea Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 loving Tom and Rachel, I really want them in the final as I dont mind who wins then. more than likely Austin will be in the final as he is the one I least like and they always seem to win! and the judges (especially Arlene) swoon over him.

susanbb Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Tom always comes over as really enjoying himself. Rachel as much as she is good just doesn't endear herself to me. Maybe she's just shy ....I don't know. I haven't a clue who'll be in the final this year. Anyone's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I think that this week it will be between Lisa and Austin to go I have about an hour's worth of ironing to get done, so shall watch it while doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagazer Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 They were brilliant weren't they Mind you I think they all danced well but I did agree with the judges that Austin's american smooth lacked something. Its such a good year this year, what a great group of dancers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedusA Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Tom and Camilla were just fantastic Yep! They are definitely my favourites too. I even voted, just to make sure. I think Austin was the weakest dancer this week. It will be interesting to see who goes this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfrock Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 oh pants. I know it was a difficult decision between any of them, but I'm afraid to say I would ratehr have seen Lisa and Brendan go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
