The Dogmother Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Right result this week. Not sorry to see her go tbh. I agree, such a relief not to have to watch her attempt to dance then cry again next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I have to agree, I won't miss Victoria, I don't think that they tried in the dance off, they had both had enough, Brendan really worked hard with her but she had no musicality or balance which seems strange for a cyclist, I would have thought that balance came with the territory I found it hard to warm to her too, whereas a couple of the others have really won me over. Dani was excellent as were Kimberley and Denise, her dance at the end was captivating. I do wonder if Denise was unwell on Saturday, either that or she was very nervous. It is really starting to matter to all of them now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadietoo Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Just wanted to say that we (dd and I ) cried when Nicky went tonight...Such a gentleman, he tried so hard and had improved so much but it was of course the right result against Denise. Still shocked though that the dance off was against Denise and still can't see why the judges aren't much harder with Lisa who is awful in my opinion..We had thought that this week it might have been Lisa to go and next week Nicky or the other way round! I thought Kimberley was fantastic this week (and I don't even like her!) but don't have a strong favourite for the winner...I think they are all very good and would be happy to see any of them win..

chickencam Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 I too feel that Lisa should have gone this week, she has not progressed, but Nicky has. She has a very strong voting audience. I do admire her but she has reached her level now I feel. I think that I am going to struggle to choose a favourite from those left. Should be a cracking semi final and final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was also astonished at the choice for the dance off, but then they've had a pattern lately of having one bad and one good pair in the clincher, so perhaps it shouldn't have been a surprise.

Seagazer Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Every Saturday night I am astounded when the judges say nothing to Lisa about her technique. The only time they have criticised her was in the rhumba and then they just said it wasn't her dance. She makes awful mistakes that even I can see and I know nothing about dance. Yet they pull other dancers completely apart or pick up on minor points. My OH laughs as it winds me up so much. I'll be really frustrated if a better dancer goes out instead of Lisa. I'm not too bothered who wins out of the rest of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I'd like Dani, Louis and that one from Girls Aloud to be the final three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted December 10, 2012 Author Share Posted December 10, 2012 Same here. The finish to her dance this week was truly hideous. Really sorry to see Nicky go. He's a gent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Totally agree with all of the above. Lisa was great in week one... but since then, she has barely progressed whilst the others have all come on in leaps and bounds. It's now time for her to leave the competition. I don't think Nicky would have made it to the final, but I do like to see people leave in (what I think!) is the right and proper order.

alih Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Couldn't agree more. By this stage in the competition it really has to be about the standard and the progress they are making. Nicky was very gracious although I wasn't a huge fan, and he had progressed massively. Everyone I speak to at work seems to love Lisa and votes for her even though they agree she is not the best dancer I usually have a standout favourite but don't this year although I think Dani has been amazing throughout and is given much less publicity than any of the others. Kimberley was superb on Saturday and they all seem very grounded and appreciative. Do we know whether the judges have a say next week? If there is a dance off let's just hope LIsa is in it as she will definitely go....but it's fantastic family entertainment. Even my husband, who is not a fan of the dancing, enjoys watching Bruno!

Tweety Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I couldn't agree more about Lisa. It is time for her to go, and has been for some time. I really hope that she goes this weekend - all the others are much better dancers and it would be very unfair if one of them lost out to her. I'm really sorry that Nicky has gone, he was lovely.

Plum Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I think the thing is with Lisa is that the judges know that if they are critical of her she'll get the sympathy vote and stay in a lot longer. I've loved this series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Jane Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Couldn't agree more. By this stage in the competition it really has to be about the standard and the progress they are making. Nicky was very gracious although I wasn't a huge fan, and he had progressed massively. Everyone I speak to at work seems to love Lisa and votes for her even though they agree she is not the best dancer I did wonder who was voting for her, but then I found that she is my SIL's favourite too. I found her celebration when she found out she was staying in a bit OTT, but then somebody I know has met her and says that she is just the same in real life. I would like Louis to win - I thought the judges went the other way with him and were over-critical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I like Louis too, but I can understand that people don't think he 'performs' enough. I think technically he has been brilliant. I think he's quite reserved come Saturday night (doesn't seem to show his character from training). I have been voting occasionally for him & Kimberly. I wish Lisa had gone this week and think Nicky would have been about due to go out next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I love watching her, she's areal radiator, but she missed timing and a few steps this week and ought to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 Her first dance was awful, as was the first dress she wore tonight. I think Louis will go tonight. His first dance was wet. The second was much better. Dani's Argentine Tango was divine, as was Denise's Tango. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 They were gorgeous, weren't they? Much as I love Lisa and her radiation of enthusiasm and joy, she's not as good technically as the others, and at this stage of the competition, she really ought to be; it would be a travesty if the public vote got her through and one of the others left. Having said that, I will really miss her on the show; her personality reminds me of our own Moochoo... always grinning and full of fun.

Snowy Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 It's a shame, I would love to keep watching them all, but it does have to be Lisa going this week, doesn't it? You can see it in her eyes, she knows she's next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 But I don't think she'll be in the bottom two. Its going to be Louis I'm afraid. Wasn't it another great show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Great show tonight with the exception of Lisa, I thought her dress and first dance was just awful. Louis didn't have such a great night either. For me the best of the night was Kimberly, loved both of her dances (not sure the last was worthy of a 40 though). I think I would love her to win. She seems to have really improved in recent weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
