sadietoo Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Just catching up with this thread....I was with Darcey on Lisa's dance, there was no bounce and lift in the footwork ...I don't think she deserved the high marks from the other judges at all.... I didn't think much of the foxtrot either, that got such high marks...I thought it was boring.... I thought the guy from Westlife did very well with his dance, as did Colin Salmon considering his height and lack of practice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I agree about Lisa - her dance on the first show was fantastic, but I thought last night's dance was no better than some of the others that were marked much more harshly. Louis, Denise and Kimberley were my favourites last night - and I think poor Sid is in danger tonight after a truly ghastly dance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groovychook Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Have just read that Bruce is going to be taking a mid series break in order for him to 'recover from the strain of live shows'. I'm not at all surprised as he's obviously struggled with his lines but I still think it's a bit sad He obviously loves working and he's got to be admired for that at his age. Must be very hard to find that you're not quite up to it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickendoodle Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I think Bruce has struggled since the start of the series. This is only the 3rd weekend of the show and if he is finding it hard to cope now I can't see him getting to the end of the series. I thought he was pretty awful last year but I can't bear to watch him this year. I'm afraid he sounds like an old man now. Time to retire methinks. On another note what was Len thinking only giving Louis a 6, less than he gave the stumbling Victoria !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Len is being very perverse this series - he seems to have swapped roles with Craig. And how the 3 judges other than Bruno thought that Michael was better than Jerry is beyond me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has happened to Craig this series too? Everything is suddenly Fab-u-lous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&T Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 The scoring is odd this year. I hope they will all settle down soon. I did enjoy Lisa - I think she performed the dance very well, so maybe a slight distraction from her foot work?? Don't know - will have to watch again! I am glad Gerry has gone though. Not only did she grate on me something chronic, but I hated the way everybody fawned over her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Rosie and I watched it on iplayer last night; am I the only one who can't take to Victoria? Colin is g o r g e o u s and so elegant. Loving Louis and detecting a spark between him and Flavia, Lisa is amazing, and her bounce is so infectious, she reminds me a lot of moochoo with her infectious laugh and grin. Was I imagining that Sid was a bit grumpy? Am enjoying this series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jules. Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I'm just getting ready to go to the station to catch my train to London. I'll give you all a report back when I've recovered.

Same in this household too Louis was A-ma-zing! this evening and Michael was fab but I don't know why, the rest of the Celebs just seemed a bit 'off' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Micheal was amazing I couldn't believe my eyes. Well done him. Sorry I support Victoria and most of the others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Plum you wouldn't have seen have seen me even if you knew me ! We were sat in the balcony on the front row facing the stage so we had a great view. The whole day was great even though our train was delayed by an hour which was very stressful at the time. I am currently in my hotel room typing from my phone but later this week I will post an account of what happened to fill you all in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I was thinking of you whilst watching last night Jules! They did show very little of the audience though so we wouldn't have had any chance of seeing you. Can't wait to hear how it went - we want all the detail!

Egluntyne Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 Micheal was amazing I couldn't believe my eyes. Well done him. Sorry I support Victoria and most of the others Ditto. I find myself warming to Victoria. Sid for the chop this week I fear. Glad you had a good time Jules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I take it all back - the judges were right to keep Michael in if his performance last night was anything to go by! Louis was amazing, and I loved Kimberley's dance too. Victoria is improving, but poor Sid was dire again. Hope Colin survives the results tonight.

Griffin Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I've always loved Victoria, she seems to be gaining in confidence and Brendan is thrilled with her. Louis to win though. He's amazing to watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Didn't take much of it in as I was struggling to stay awake Louise was amazing though, Sid seems to have turned into a right grump and apart from lusting after Ola doesn't seem to be enjoying himself much. Colin wasn't as good as last week, but I still think he's foxy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 It's not that I don't like her, I just think that she finds it hard to emote, which doesn't endear her to anyone. It must be very hard to be at the top of your stack and then suddenly take up a new project, which you don't have any natural talent for.

Snowy Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Phew, glad it was Sid that went! Must admit Colin can't dance too well either, but I would far rather watch him again than Sid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
