Guest Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I may have missed it, but as far as I am aware she has not said anything all week. What a professional! I really admire her - she didn't want any sympathy votes. I've given it some thought and feel sure that she will have had trouble concentrating and therefore found it very hard to learn the dances. It is far better to withdraw than to be voted out. That would have been wrong. Possibly she and Brendan decided together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I would stake money on her coming back next year,& I think that would be really good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Poor Letitia.....she looked so ill. I actually thought at one point that she was going to vomit on live television. Very brave and sporting of her to compete. Lesser mortals would have taken to their beds. Alesha and Matthew's Tango was SPECTACULAR. I think it's my favourite dance so far.

chelsea Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I think she was going to be Eglutine, she actually hid behind Darren at the end of the second dance just before judging and had that look on her face like she was gagging and held her hand in front her mouth. poor girl.

Lesley Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Egluntine - hold my hand through this confession.......... Letitia's first dance was to their cover version of Helen Shapiro's 'Walking back to happiness'................ the first record I ever bought!!! (1967/8?) I can't remember the whole evening enough to tell you what happened Susan - I recorded it, watched it later and kept falling asleep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Man Banned Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I think the judges were particularly hard on Letitia, considering she was very clearly ill on the night - poor girl Still, it was an odd evening without Kelly. and at least they mentioned it and brought Brendan in to say goodbye I think it's not going to be a good week for Kenny this week - but the voting public will send Letitia home this week I think.

A xx She will be half hoping so....if she progresses much further she will be struggling to fulfill her obligations to the Ipswich Panto....which is completely sold out on the strength of her being in it. She could do with a week in bed I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura007 Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 when it came to alesha and matthews latin dance, i was convinced i had watched a totally different dance to the judges. it was sooooooo slow. i thoght it was a party dance, but they still got a really high score. dont get me wrong, i like alesha but i didnt think it was worth the score that they got.

The Dogmother Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I thought that Alesha let herself down too, and felt for poor Letitia; she was really struggling, but carried on like an old trouper - all eyes and teeth even though she felt grim. Rosie has got me watching this now - more than doubled my quota of TV viewing for the week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I was surprised, I thought that Letitia would go out. The poor love needs a rest by the looks of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 If you thought that performance was bad Dan you should have seen it when he started. No matter how bad he was or wasn't this week the improvement was huge. Poor Letitia only good make up stopped us seeing how green she must have been, I really thought she was going to barf on live tv, poor love. She can and has done much better but deserved another week in the competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can and has done much better but deserved another week in the competition I agree. She said she was so ill that she was delirious and could barely stand at the end. What a trouper....talk about "the show must go on". She's rehearsing now in Ipswich as well as competing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Have just watched Strictly...It Takes Two. Flavia was ill too, with the same thing as Letitia....it was a gastric flu type thingy. She said she'd felt awful. Aren't these showbiz people amazing. they just paint on a smile and get on with it. you would never have guessed that Flavia wasn't 100% She was coughing tonight though.

One Man Banned Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I was chatting to one of my friends at the airport on Monday and she went to Saturdays show - applied for tickets three months ago and got selected. She said it was great to see how the show is put together. This week, Kylie performed first but the men messed up so she had to do it again. This was before all the dancers actually did anything. Then the dancers all came out, did their thing, group dancing for the live show. A little later Bruce "thanked" Kylie and did a few continuity links to be put in the Sunday show and then they filmed the results show to be shown on Sunday. I would so love to go, but it's taking me ages to get tickets to Graham Norton show so getting some in time for Strictly is hoping that little bit too far A xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
