Unfortunately with bobby the more he speaks the less I like him, in my head i had this idea that Jeff had brought him and his brother up with a good education and he would not resemble his late mother on that front. I think i might be wrong.
Layton also needs to connect more with the audience or he'll be clinging on in the dance offs each week for no other reason than people just don't like him.

I thought the same that Jade had tried to make as much money as she could while dying to give them a good education? I thought they went to Private school? But then look at Princess Andre..she went to Private school and couldn’t even pass her GCSE’s and looks like she’s going down the same route as her mother!

Shame about who went.
 
I’m just watching a few videos online because I missed the show yet again but I think Zara was terrible, she was very floppy, nothing seemed structured (if that’s a word when it comes to dance) the song was awful with the dance (not her fault) I actually struggle to see how Nikita was marked so much less than her. Nikita I would give pretty much the same critique but she improved since last week when she was essentially dragged around the floor so for her not to get a single mark more and Zara to improve is baffling to me.
Also you can’t even compare Zara to the likes of Eddie and for there to be such little difference in scoring is crazy.
I think it’s blatantly obvious Zara and Nikita have absolutely zero dance experience but it seems a bit cruel for them or something, Nikita in particular, when someone like Les signs up I’m sure they’re aware they’re going to be somewhat of a fun act but when it’s young girls in their twenties who aren’t great it’s not that funny?
Amanda Abbington does my head in!!!!! Her and Gio together is one of the worst things I’ve ever seen in my life.

Hahahaha I read this as Princess Anne and was totally baffled by the “same route as her mother” comment and thought ooh what tea do they have on the late queen 😂

I think Bobby is covering his nerves with a laid back swagger-mask. I think he's out of his comfort zone inside. My son's 19 and he isn't comfortable in his own skin yet - might be wrong though 🤷‍♀️

You‘d have to be pretty awful as a person to be in a relationship with Martin Freeman.
😱 what have i missed about Martin Freeman? I just like him because of The Office 🤣 - I've obviously missed something along the way!

Yes it's as I was saying earlier - just judge the dance. Don't keep thinking about someone's 'journey' or attitude. I do think Strictly differs from other reality shows, like Bake Off where you are only as good as your last bake. On Strictly if you start off good, like Nigel, you are judged more harshly than someone constantly poor but trying. Luckily the public generally see through this.
I think the problem is that they don’t actually make one celeb against another … Anton and Shirley (and I think Craig) had said the only way they can do it is mark the celeb against themselves and what they have done before because marking a quickstep from Layton against a Samba from Lea is well nigh impossible. So when the likes of Jody gets a 3 from Craig, it’s not saying he was a point worse than Annabel this week, it’s saying he was 2 points off what he did last week.

Eddie was done wrong, one way or the other, bafflingly mainly by Karen. Not only wasn’t he give a formal Cha cha routine, he wasn't taught the correct technique. I think he did well to get the score he did.
 
I still don’t understand what happened with Eddie? Motsi looked really cross. Surely Karen knew she was teaching him the wrong steps? She looked fummmin during the feedback.
Yes some weird things going on last night from the judges directed at the pros.After showing Karen in the VT saying heels up to Eddie, Shirley made a point of saying no heels down. I can’t understand why Nikita didn’t have even an attempt at swivel when they know it’s the only thing Craig looks for. There were a few pros mightily pissed off I thought.
