Tiny bit of movement tonight compared to this morning for Grangela

Ellie's odds have shortened even further

UGH. Why is Bobby on a parallel with Nigel. Layton is surprisingly low given they have a potentially very high scoring dance that’s unlikely to leave them anywhere but towards the top of the leaderboard.. they really must think he isn’t pulling in the votes.

Layton is going to become a dance off assassin - he'll be there until the semi-final and hopefully the final.

It will be an absolute joke if Layton is voted out over Bobby and misses a place in the final. IMO if Bobby deserved a place in the final he'd have shown us that by now.
 
I so miss Rylan. I think Fleur genuinely tries her best but having two fairly presenters fairly new to TV presenting in general isn't going to make for a great show. Add in that Janette simply doesn't have any wit or seemingly much grasp of UK humour/culture and it makes her shows very awkward.
 
The Nadiya fan going off again on DS, seemingly about Nadiya not partnering Kai in the remembrance number.
Oh for goodness sake, as Kai mentioned on the clip, him and Lauren have partnered each other since they were kids, so they are really fantastic together, and are the two main British pros. Of course Jason would put them together for an important British Remembrance Dance.
 
I do think the "woman waiting for her lover at war" theme for remembrance dances is getting stale.

Women were so much more when the world was at war.

At this stage I'd even appreciate them representing the messenger pigeons more than this boring sentimentality that erases the crucial role of women.
 
Based on that I'd say Annabel (stiff and twee) and Booby (wavy arms inflatable mascot thingy) are looking the weakest.

Krishan surprised me - Lauren wasn't wrong when she said his technique was looking good. Unfortunately Grangela looks quite good in her paso shaping too.

Ellie and Layton are going to smash it - both look great.
It doesn't seem to matter what The Consciousness of the Thoughts of Bobby does: he gets fairly decent marks and sails through.
I guess it will come down to ties etc. I imagine Layton and Nigel will be top and second top of the LB - then it's a bunfight for points and popularity. Hopefully Ellie will have the votes to be safe.

Tomorrow I think those in the bottom of the leaderboard will be the Angela's, Annabel and maybe Krishnan. Think it may come down to the dances on the night and how it all comes together for us the viewers. Obviously the others could be in danger but Les likely, regardless who is doing the 'Blackpool' word count 😆
 
krishnan looks really good there!! layton and ellie look amazing, nigel looks decent.

the awareness of the thoughts of bobby and annabel probably look the weakest. i still think everyone is right that annabel will go.

He does look good. I really hope he can get straight to Blackpool by avoiding the DO.

I'm really stuck picking the bottom two. I think Angela R, and am leaning to Annabel, but still have a feeling she could just sneak through.
