Someone on DS posted the link to Molly's BGT audition. I had never seen it or any of her performances before. Although she has got a great voice the combo of the inappropriate song and sleazy David Walliams smirking at her only affirms my belief that child stardom is A Bad Thing. But yes, she will have seen plenty in the industry already. And at least she has Carlos Nikita Tyler Vito to comfort her now..

Why do they get young girls to sing inappropriate songs on BGT? They get little boy comedians to tell sexuslused jokes too at times. It's really uncomfortable. She's nit even a teen there. She's 11!

I didn't know Fleur before SCD but I find her lovely, utterly gorgeous and you're right, she has a fabulous figure.

My 6 YO daughter went to Butlins over the summer holidays and Fleur was doing a mini residency there (oh the glamour 😝)
My daughter loves her from listening to the Hits Radio breakfast show before school and was very excited to meet her after the show. Fleur, despite being visibly knackered, had all the time in the world to spend with my rather star-struck daughter and was very happy to have photos taken with her.

For that alone she gets at least one of my daughters votes each week.

Well, except for Fleurmaid week, because that was unforgivable

Looks like a pretty standard reaction to me 🤷

Well you saw something different to me 🤷‍♀️ I can't find it to rewatch it but I remember he went to hug Helen first and she was making commiserations-y gestures at James and Amy, so he quick turned around and overacted the sadface at them. I remember it stood out to me because I was really shocked that he looked so worried to be left til last/relieved to be through because it seemed obvious there was no way in hell Helen was going to be in the dance off over James' haunted beekeeper mess.

Not criticising him, mind you, I wouldn't have given a tit about James and Amy going either, it was the right time for them, arguably a bit later than it should have been.

the big thing with gorka for me is that he seems to single out craig for this little hip wiggle/bum shake stuff and, idk, that kinda gives me the ick. it isn’t really fair to craig and i think you can tell he isn’t into what it’s implying by how he doesn’t play along.

Yeah, I don't like that. It's a bit like those frat boys in high school who assume the gay guy must fancy them.

You could say virtually the same for Hamza, though.
I'm not sure being partnered with a new pro really makes that much difference … new pros have won before and make it through to the final on a fairly regular basis.

I don’t know … Molly is a lovely Girl, comes across as extremely likeable and is a neat dancer but there just doesn’t seem to be any oomph for want of a better word.
(other than the working through the males of the cast at a rate of one a week, obviously)

I think as time has gone on she’s finding it harder to bounce back from the dance offs. And who can blame her? I’m sure it is because she doesn’t have a fanbase and she is a ‘stage school kid’ but I know it would kill me to think nobody was voting for me.

And I think Fleur being a bit older and probably having knock backs in the industry pre-X Factor will perhaps make her better equipped at dealing with the dance offs, but it still must be tough. There are more left who haven’t been in the dance off than who have and there’s a chance Fleur and Molly will be in the DO next week. But who knows?
 
I don't think liking Fleur is a minority opinion here. I really like her - she's very upbeat, has a great laugh with Vito and when she gets a dance right, she's brilliant.

Now, liking mardy Will? THAT'S a minority opinion . Sneak preview of his Manc couples choice here:

I don’t dislike anyone left, they all bring something different to the table (I do find Will a bit intense and less fun than I hoped tho!).

Whilst I see the advantage of a couple of days off to rest/etc I’m a little surprised no one seems to have been rehearsing yesterday? I know they have extra time this week but it’s two dances and there will be two VTs/extra faff to film.

One like is not enough for this comment. Pulls up a chair in minority corner

I'm not sure Hamza excites most people but he's extremely nice and inoffensive. I enjoy watching him dance but I'm not sure there has been much progression in his performance. He just gets it right but there are very few memorable wow moments imo. Nice can win the race but I've a feeling unless he has a standout dance in the next few weeks Helen or ( please god noooo!) Will may blindside him!

God I hope it's not Will. His AT face! If it's Helen, she could just pip Hamza, with her late-breaking 'Helen gets her groove back' storyline.

Someone pointed out that the background of Maria's story is rural, so it looks like it is Helen doing the AT. I can't see it suiting her. TBH, even if Helen and Hamza perform badly on Sunday, they are still 100% safe.
Lol, didn't Helen have that storyline on Friday?
