Jeremy will be leaving with a slow dance unless he ups his game, entertainment is the only reason he's still there

[Liam-]

You can't hurry love :flutter:

[Vanessa]

I like Jay and Aliona song. I saw a version that would really suit them.

Thinking out loud :lovedup:

Can see Peter scoring high this week

[Vanessa]

Why is Peter getting special treatment? He always dances last, gets the best songs and the judges always praise him and never say anything negative whatsoever. :nono:

Probably because he got paid the most and they want good use of their money so they make sure he stays, but I really dislike him seems very big headed when he clearly not the best dancer there (even if he does get the best scores)

It's not fair at all on the others. Ugh! :omgno:

Anita on the the hand always gets underscored. :bored:

Peter made me cringe last week when he hugged Claudia, Brendan Cole's face summed up my feelings exactly.

[Vanessa]

Georgia and Giovanni are being stitched up with that song. Terrible for a salsa! But i'm sure they will be good as they always are.

I'm glad that Jay still has 50 % support on tellymix. It shows that public is not fooled. :hehe:

I agree, why not have a Gloria Estefan number...

I hate how they never give good songs to some of the contestants. Jay song is good, but it would haven been better a more traditional one. But i think with him they're going for a modern take, which suit him.

It's Blondie's song, you know the good and most popular version!?:mad::laugh:

[Mystic Mock]

Anita on the the hand always gets underscored. :bored:

Anita can't dance though.:laugh:

[Vanessa]

Anita can't dance though.:laugh:

i think she's ok, but i didn't like her last week.

[Suze]

Thanks Erin.

Glad to see Jeremy has got a ballroom dance at last. I think his frame will be better suited to a ballroom dance. I think and hope he will make the most of dancing the Waltz.

[GoldHeart]

Anita can't dance though.:laugh:

Here we go again mystic mock :notimpressed:
Anita can dance so maybe you need to go to specsavers , and i think she needs to be given higher scores so there

[Vanessa]

Now I think they're trying to under score Jay as well. Because after that jive he's a threat to producers favourite Pete. But most of the public supports Jay. He has over half of the vote on tellymix. Noone else even comes close to his popularity. I hope Anita and Jay wipe the floor with that lot!

[Vanessa]

I think he could be in trouble this week. People like him because he's entertaining, but a serious dance may lose him votes.

I don't mind if it is his time to go now the best dancers need to step up, I just wanted to see him do a ballroom, as I didn't think it was fair for him to be stuck with four weeks of the faster dances especially as he has had no dance training before, at least he is giving his all in his dances and I find him so entertaining, but if this is his week to go then so be it :) I think realistically though, Jeremy, Ainsley, and Carol probably expect to get eliminated in the next few weeks, although am hoping Kirsty is next to go, don't like her at all, she can't handle any critisism I have noticed and thinks she is better than she is.

Don't like Kristy at all.

[Kate!]

Ainsley out next please.

I don't dislike Anita (there's quite a few that I would get rid of before her on personal preference) but Gleb carrying her through dances cannot make the judges score her higher, she needs to do some of these moves herself.

[erinp5]

Don't like Kristy at all.

I don't take to her , I do hope she goes this week.It must be time for a female to go if not we will be left with three guys!!

[MB.]

Anita can't dance though.:laugh:

wat

[Mystic Mock]

wat

:laugh:

I'll put it this way without Gleb's looks carrying them through each week as the production will give him preferential treatment with dance routines in the way that they're choreographed, Anita just wouldn't standout, especially if she was given a partner that the female audience wasn't going crazy over.

[MB.]

You do realise the pros choreograph their own routines right

[Mystic Mock]

You do realise the pros choreograph their own routines right

Of course they do, just like how TXF acts help pick their own song choices.

[GoldHeart]

Of course they do, just like how TXF acts help pick their own song choices.

What on earth are you talking about Gleb maybe goodlooking but that doesn't make a difference because he's not carrying Anita atall and she's like a pro , he choreographs good routines and she comes out each week with soo much enthusiasm :nono:

Plus what about Anton Du Beke he's getting ahead of himself and assumes he's going to win just because for once he has a decent dancer with Kate
but yet he still screwed up the movie week dance by making her just stand and pose as he dances around her :facepalm: fortunately she was saved though

[Mystic Mock]

Anton's a joke, I do feel sorry for Katie having him.

[Vanessa]

Good luck to all the couples. Can't wait for tonight. Should be a great show.

[Mystic Mock]

Going into tonight I'm cheering on Jay, Kirsty (because she's already getting abuse on her “personality faults” if you buy it) Georgia, Jeremy, Anita, Carol, Jamelia, Ainsley, Peter, Kellie, and Katie.

[GoldHeart]

Anton's a joke, I do feel sorry for Katie having him.

Anton is a smug idiot and he made a huge mess of tonight's salsa aswell
he's the worst professional there :rant: and even though Katie has done some good dances in the past tonight was terrible
yet she was still saved
im losing interest in the show now tbh :notimpressed:
