I was completely on board with Hamza winning a few weeks ago but tbh he doesn't seem to have improved at all. I don't know if it's because Jowita isn't very experienced with teaching or if he is genuinely doing his best but just peaked too early. I'd like Fleur to win as she's improved loads but there's not the remotest chance of that happening. I hate that a Molly/Fleur DO is inevitable this week when ideally both of them should be in the final :( I quite like Helen but she's the weakest dancer left yet will almost certainly go straight through.

I'd still be happy to see Hamza win as I prefer him over Helen and Will, but then that'll be 2 years in a row with a dead obvious winner which is a bit boring. Although as others have said I'm not that arsed about who actually wins anyway. I hope he'll do his salsa again in the final

I agree with you; I'd be fine with Hamza winning it as he's a nice chap but he has plateaued the past number of weeks (the overscoring has not helped which he obviously cant help but it has been off putting) where as Helen has come more out of her shell and hit her stride with more of her recent dances in the jive, quickstep and now her couples choice.

I still think he's the fave to win and especially if he does the salsa again in the final which I'm sure he will but I like the fact it has gotten more juicy now after Helen has seem to hit her stride as of late so its still up in the air who can take the win.

Great song, but I'm not sure an AT will work that well to Here Comes The Rain Again. Would have been better suited to a tango.

Just on the off chance that anyone was wondering, Here Comes The Rain Again is well suited to a tango 😁

It was interesting then talking about her lacking in confidence, maybe that’s why she seemed a bit detached at the beginning, like she didn’t want to drop her guard and be knocked out early

She did an instagram story after the Pride of Britain awards,saying that the winners had really inspired her to just let go and not to worry and go for it.I think you can see that is what she really tried to do. Nice partnership with Graz aswell,he seems like a really nice guy.
 
I accidentally saw a spoiler one week on YouTube. It was fleur and Vito's dance AT. I re watched it Sunday morning because it was 🔥 and read the comments as was curious what others thought and someone had put now she shouldn't of been in the DO 😒

That's what I have said about Kym all along. I think she expected to be gone early doors and that was why she held back in showing her feelings, so she came across as a bit detached.

I remember one particular night she really showed her delight when they got through, possibly the week after she had been in the dance off, and from there on, it was obvious that she was enjoying herself and she certainly gave it all she had.

I enjoyed her and Graz's performances.
Lovely interview on ITT.

I find it best to avoid all comment sections on a Sunday. I've had more than one dance off result spoiled that way 🤣
 
I still dislike Kym (although I’m sure she’s probably a different person now to who she was in her Hear’say days) but she definitely seemed to embrace the competition more once Waterloo road filming finished and had her own journey. Tbh if she hadn’t had to take a week out ill, I think she would have got to the finals.

This has been the first year in a while where I honestly don’t care who wins. all the remaining couples have improved, they’ve all had some strong dances and they all seem to really be enjoying competing.

This is what I was thinking. She was genuinely nervous, tense and unconfident at the beginning. Lots of speculation that she either just didn't want to be there or was hating every minute. Even that Graz made her uncomfortable and she hated him, too. But maybe that's because her lack of confidence was never a plot line.

I remember how thrilled she was to avoid the DO after being in it the week before and then it all clicked for her with the Rhumba. For me, she genuinely did find a real, unexpected confidence being on the show, but the show never made it a story because that story had already been dished out.

Yep, I avoid all forums and SM because it always gets given away. Even indirectly. You never really have to go searching for it.

I went to school with The Proclaimers ! ( and performed in stage with them in school production of "Joseph and his amazing technicolour dream coat!").....they started off as a punk rock band at school and played a few local gigs before moving to Edinburgh

It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but the movie version of the jukebox musical featuring their music is worth a watch, even just for Jane Horrocks’ version of Sunshine on Leith.
