Plum Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Wow Caroline's legs were amazing such high elegance. I wonder how many girls have had lessons before. Frankie and Pixie are special as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Well, the cast of celebrities seems to be divided between really good performers and absolutely dire ones with very little in between; there's a virtual queue at the bottom of people who really need to go, and in some cases (Judy Murray, Irish lady and the DJ) who really don't seem to be enjoying the experience. In the DJ's defence, he looks to be very pigeon toed, so that doesn't help. However, there were some really excellent performances tonight, and early in the show for such promise.

Grandmashazzie Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Agree DM,the standard is amazing there are so many excellent dancers it's hard to see how much better they will get,they already look like professionals.I do feel sorry for Judy Murray.She is probably a perfectionist and so wants to be perfect but comes across so tense.I think she will survive a bit longer as I think Anton has a core of followers who vote for him.The DJ and Mrs Browns wife will be next I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Astonished that Judy stayed and Jennifer went. Judy looks so uncomfortable, looks as if she doesn't want to be there. Ax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I'd have liked Judy to stay another week. Oh well at least it wasn't 2 good dancers in the dance off. I'm liking Donny can we keep him instead of Bruno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 I don't have a problem with Jennifer leaving, Scott or Judy next. I am not warming to Simon and I am not fond of Christina but he shouldn't have been in the dance off. Sorry i didn't like Donny, he is too fake and shouldn't have been giving out 9s and 10s, those dances were good but not that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I can't believe that Tim was voted off instead of Scott Tim isn't particularly good, but at least he has some sort of aptitude and enjoys dancing. Scott looks like he is hating every minute of it. Some brilliant dances on Saturday though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmashazzie Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Totally agree DM.Tim has at least some personality.The standard is so high.It will be difficult to vote anyone off when the next few weak ones go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 (edited) Agreed, there are some seriously good dancers, even if I haven't ever heard of some of them Order of departure: Scott Judy Then the going gets tough. Anyone else think that Claudia appeared to have been tangoed this evening? Edited October 20, 2014 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Wow what a great show, so many surprises Where did Judy get that performance from, not great timing but such a great performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Some really sublime dancing there - beautiful performances from so many celebrities. Scott and Judy are just so out of their depth... poor Scott just has no natural aptitude for dancing at all, not his fault and it must be so hard for him. I've never been a fan of Judy, but she's rather disadvantaged in this competition as she's the only person there who isn't in the entertainment business and doesn't have the necessary 'performance' persona/skills to project herself. I think she's also naturally quite shy out of her natural arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I agree, she was much improved, and deservedly delighted with herself... just not natural performer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 We all have Judy a massive round of applause tonight, along with Mark and Steve. None of them have danced before and they are all loving this experience. Steve was so graceful such a change from the previous dances.

chickencam Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 Thom was terrible in the dance off, I think that the judges were tactful and made it look closer than it actually was. Hopefully next week the weaker ones will go, but they both made improvements this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clucker1 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 What a BIG shame the right couples aren't going into the dance off ! Who is voting for the weaker dancers.....it's not right and unfair on the better dancers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I agree with Liz about Thom; he looked stiff and awkward, and I don't think that the choreography suited him this time. I can't say that I warm to Simon, but he's a good dancer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
