Summary of this week:-

- Ellie’s was....boring. Not her fault, poor song and theme. She performed it well.

- Annabelle's was a bit dull as well, it wasn't a particularly exciting opening half tbh

- Layton was amazing, well deserved first 40, although I'm not sure if Craig genuinely thought it was a 10 or if he was afraid Motsi would knock him out if he didn't give it a 10 😂

- Bobby was...all right? THE LIFT was a bit precarious, Dianne clearly screaming internally bless her; not sure why they gave him the haircut of a 45 year old lesbian though

- Poor Nigel and Katya, she looked so upset - it sounds like the backing dancers dropped him?! Haven't we all been saying the dance troupe was a bad idea for years???

- Kai looking like a bouncer at a sticky floored night club gave me a bit of a chuckle

- Gio as a sleazy gangster last week and a tyrannical dance captain this week - are the pro choreographers tattlers 😂

- All the pro girls looking gorgeous in the background tonight, pleased to see Amy looking so well

- The Fisherman's Friends bit was, er, interesting; went on far too long though
Looked like he was wearing his couple’s choice suit from 2021. Nadiya was wearing the dress she wore in her elimination interview on itt that year ( also quarter final).
 
How do they plan to pad this out for another 7 minutes?


With the most petrifying fever dream anyone could ever have dreamt up.


WHAT THE LIVING duck WAS THAT ‘FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS’ INTERLUDE?!?!?! I’m guessing they frantically rang every musical in the whole of the southeast and that was the only one with a few understudies at a loose end. 😬

Aww duck off Dianne. She wouldn’t trust any of the other pros to do that lift but she’d let Booby with his noodley arms do it.


Such bullshit: ‘yeah, I’d not trust the muscular, trained dancer Kai to hoist me over his head, I’d only feel safe in the hands the mimsy child who just nearly dropped me.’

I'd say just the two that they do next week.
I’d say just the 2 from next week … the staging, costumes and backing dancers probably made this weeks impossible.


I was kind of hoping that next week, when Bobby is inevitably in the dance off, Dianne’s little brain might think it’s a good idea to repeat the Dirty Dancing salsa in order to prove that they can get that lift right - and then inevitably duck it up even worse 🤞🤞🤞
 
They won’t do this weeks dance next week in the DO as they won’t be in the right costumes.. imagine L&N is say cheesy Charleston outfits doing a Paso 😅
 
I can’t believe how close we were to getting a Bobby-Annabel DO! The injustice *shakes fist*

We’ll just have to treasure the memories

Watching the previous dirty dancing performances you have to wonder what the hell were they thinking giving it to Bobby and putting him on after Laytons Paso which was always going to be amazing. Is Dianne totally delusional thinking they could pull that off?

ETA - actually of course she didn’t hence the mining for Layton haters on Facebook, using her dad as a sob story and looking delighted there was no elimination. She knew she was fucked. I hope she is benched next year.
