Oh, I thought Kai was Pinocchio. The face just looked like him.

I have had wine tonight so feel a tad bitchy, but I thought Nadiya pulled off that red hair better than Dianne ever has. Mind you, if that was Nadiya as Gandalf with the beard in the pro dance, she looked bloody good like that too. The woman can never look anything less than stellar.

Nadiya looked stunning. And fair play to wardrobe, she did actually resemble Kate Wilson of The B-52s.

Edit: oh, was that meant to be Gandalf?! My husband and daughter wanted to know why God was in a Halloween dance wearing a silver sequinned mini dress! 🤣
 
This. Only two good dances the whole evening is pretty poor. AJ was ok too, but a bit forgettable

Just someone do something interesting next week for the love of god. We've still got weeks to go and it's not fair to rely on just Rose and Gio to entertain us!
Totally agree. I think you can see Tilly is improving and isn't that what strictly is all about? Rose has also improved massively,i remember when I saw one of her first dances I thought oh no this is not fair but she's improved so much. John peaked too soon, he's not getting better in my opinion he's just treading water. Sara has improved but had a mare this week with the choreography, what was Alijaz thinking, Tom, Dan, Adam, are all trying but theyre not final material. Tom I particularly dislike after last night's sulky little face. 😂



@Oohthedrama . In the words of Nick Ross, don’t have nightmares.

Oh ffs! MAKE IT STOP!! 😂
 
I always felt that Anton and Emma Barton were meant to win their series. Then Jamie Lang got injured and was replaced by Kelvin. Who won the series on dance one!!!

But I honestly feel this year they're not bothered. As someone else said, the front runners are deaf, black and gay, so win win.

The only problem will be if Tom McFly wins 😱😱😱
Not for me I have Tom in our sweep 😂😂

I didn't like Emma, her starey eyes scared the living bejesus out of me!

God the idea that supreme God-botherer Dan is having it off is hilarious. I would love it but it is not true. Rose has a bf so it seems very unlikely. It could be that they are trying to distract from the Adam/Katya stuff by basically saying 'look over here!'.
Or maybe the Sara/Aljaz/Janette thruple is not as innocent as it seems..
It's so funny on breakfast I quite like him and thought he was a good bloke but now I've seen him on strictly and his constant waffling he's dull as duck! What a bore! Stop talking Dan you ain't doing yourself no favors!
 
No I think she's brought the best out of Gio. I've always thought he was a bit of a knob but she's making me warm to him a bit due to his partnership with her.
I agree I found him an arrogant knob in recent series but rose has brought out a more genuine and softer side of him. I’m beginning to change my opinion of him and really want rose to win
 
I'm not getting at you personally Everybody, yours just happened to be the post I responded to. I can't understand how so many - apparently knowledgeable about 'Dance' - can consider what Nikita did was worthy of praise. ?? Unless of course you are taking a cue from Craig who must have his 'funny' head on if he thinks that that Choreography was anything remotely connected with a Cha Cha!

Other than very close to the finish, Tilly never did a cha cha chassis - and even then it was only a couple 'in-line' on her way to the stage. Quite awful. I marked her lower than Judi simply because she didn't dance a Cha Cha !


You obviously don't appreciate that the production team need to clean up the dance-floor between contestants. That's what the VT sections are about.
Everyone's opinion is welcome over here...... Even yours 😁
 
As far as I could work out...

Neil - Pinocchio
Oti - Hermione
Amy - Dorothy
Luba - Wicked Witch
Nadiya - Sauron LOTR
Johnnes - Jafar
Giovanni - Hannibal Lector
Gorka - Chucky
Alijaz - IT
Dianne - Queen Of Hearts
Jowita - Harley Quinn
Nikita - Joker
Cameron - Dracula
Kai - Voldemort
Graz - Captain Hook
Nancy - Maleficent
Katya - Nurse Ratched

.... only costume I didnt know was Karens 🤣 I think thats the only one I'm missing

(I love horror movies so I was intruiged when I saw IT etc appear in it and probably paid too much attention evidently)
Who was Darth Vader and Pennywise?
 
I’ve been thinking more about Sara’s dance. Aljaz should hang his head - the concept and the choreography were shocking. Hair joined costume in dealing her a duffer too. I feel sorry for her.

I think I can kinda see what he was going for. The intensity of the tango worked really well for her and I reckon he was trying to expand on that. But it was just too messy and not as structured as a tango.

Couples Choice is so crap, I always roll my eyes when a couple I like does one. Honourable exceptions include Faye and Giovanni, Ashley and Pasha and Bill and Oti - all of theirs were brilliant and played to their strengths.
 
Did you see the creepy git waving his fingers constantly when he was in the background.
Bleurgh, he gives me the creeps.

I think he's a creepy git, I think Dan's a nob and I think Tom's a twit and I think Adam is a mix of all three.


I liked Rose's dance best tonight and I want her to win the glitterball.
I agree with all you have said. I cringe when Dan comes on he’s so cheese on toast I can’t cope with him
 
Just saw on Twitter that Rose and Gio’s 40 is the earliest 40 ever on Strictly! Which I think they fully deserved but does prove that Craig is definitely being softer this year. Past years he gave 9s even when he couldn’t fault the dances as he just didn’t want to give a 10 too soon for sure!
Think Gio might have to leave this year now to keep his king of Halloween title, not sure he’ll beat a 40 whoever he has next year 🤣
 
Fair enough. I don’t see any of those things at all but it’s interesting to see how we all interpret things differently. I think the shouting thank you all the time could be a nerves thing? Also as you said all of the other pros/celebs repost messages from fans so I don’t see anything wrong with that 🤷🏻‍♀️ We all know she won’t win as it’s obviously going to be Rose but in my opinion it will be criminal if she’s not in that final.
I agree. I don't see any of that either. Funnily enough all those things annoyed me about her before she was on Strictly !

Love Sara, she is so lovely. Follow her on Insta, I thought the dance was going to be sensational going by their updates during the week ...they had 2 choreographers helping them with this too... I was disappointed for her , it was a wreck , not her fault. Aliaz and 2 choreographers and this was the result....
 
Woah there! I usually just lurk on this thread but have to jump in as I’ve met Anton socially through his wife’s family and he was a delight. He is as daft as a brush and full of terrible jokes but he’s kind and a thoroughly decent chap who is devoted to his family.

Horses for courses of course because I know this doesn’t mean he’s a joy to work with, but from what I’ve seen of him he’s a good one.
In sure he was/ is and as i also said, I do like Anton and have even been to seen him dance. I'm just stating what's been said to me by someone who works with him. And that's their opinion not mine

Yes, she looks better more natural. She looks lovely in rehearsals and on ITT. The hair extensions do her no favours at all. It wasn’t a great night for her and I hope it hasn’t highlighted the fact that she actually hasn’t improved as much as we thought.
