Kim has tested positive for COVID. Bad timing.

For who though? The second weakest dancer left and she has a bye to the next round. So Ellie probably has to avoid the dance off to stay in. If Ellie avoids the dance off then, one of the top 5 goes out.

Tbf I'd say that Kym is better than Helen.

Helen does not have a dance as good as Kym's AT imo.

Helen's quickstep was her best dance .

I agree with that tbf.

I feel personally though that Kym's AT is better.

what was so good about that then?


didn't seem any different from any other quickstep :shrug:


but yeah Helen got sympathy factor of course because of her recent divorce from that most hated man now in britain it seems (how it comes across in the media's)



Helen is ''dull dull dull'' for me, as dull as the likes of Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Kara Tointon were for me personally, also easy finalist material because of judges hype who overlook any mistakes all the time





my preferred final 4 would be now

Hamza, Fleur, Molly and one of Kym or Will (not sure because both are progressing equally for me)

Will has the Charleston! Finally! A showstopper! This is going to be epic! :cheer2:

We haven't had any training footage at all this week. What's going on?:fist:

Hopefully he'll do well with it.:dance:

Looks like a Charleston similar to the one Daisy and Alijaz did. White gloves and shoes, maybe? I think Will is going to smash it.

i'm going to record next weeks musicals week, since that being on a friday (and that is masked singer night for me so)


all these weird time slots now (german RTL would nevah have problems like these, but then again they aren't a national broadcaster so they don't have this extra stress)

Felt a bit of a dull episode tonight. Also I thought Molly was the best of the night but got criminally underscored! As much as I love Hamza it wasn't deserving of 10s! And I don't get how Ellie is still there

Loved Will and Nancy Charleston. Will top of the leader board. I'm so happy tonight!:dance::cheer2:

For me on the night I thought that Molly was the best, and slightly underscored considering her terrible dance last week got the same score off the judges.

Will was good, but was more of a Jive than a Charleston imo.

Fleur did well, but she's better suited to other dances.

Hamza was bad imo, and was definitely overscored this week. No way should that have got two 10's.

And Helen & Ellie T were both dreadful this week, they should definitely be the bottom two if the public were voting fairly as they were clearly behind everyone else.

I agree with all that.
I couldn't have put it better.

Fleur: I saw so many amazing things in this Rumba , if there was mistakes ...well it wasn't noticeable to me . It just felt like such intense chemistry and passion and sharp leg work. The ending had such heat aswell between Fleur & Vito :love: . 10


Molly: Another consistent dramatic stunning performance, great partnership between Carlos & Molly . The Tango was really smooth & on point . 10

Will : I didn't like the music choice , felt really odd for a Charleston . But another decent routine. 8

Helen: Had it's quirkiness but wasn't her best , last week was so spectacular. But this week it felt like she was holding back ... and was a bit weak in places. i'd give it a 7

Hamza: He plays to his strengths which are lifts and good frame , and dramatic acting . Even at the end it felt like they were staying in character ...just gazing in eachother's eyes . But was fairly decent ... . 8

Ellie T : Very basic , Johannes made it a fun jive i guess . But technically this just wasn't that good. 6

Will: best of the night 10 innovative, refreshing, fun take on the charleston

Molly: deathslotted for a reason, it left me cold sadly, Carlos's choreo here was good, but now i expect perfection from a trained dancer like her, and this wasn't perfect 7

Ellie T: fun jive, and surprisingly very fast moments for a tall girl like her, great 9

Fleur: it was a flawless rumba, perfect 10

Hamza: Anton bore the **** off, what do you know about argentine tango's anyway, it is not a ballroom so not in your expertise area, Hamza did great and the chemistry was phenomenal, any mark i can give you is probably too low, best of the series all time 1000

Helen: FINALLY Helen getting her first ever critiques, amazing to see, such a wooden samba, thank you judges hallelujah, god bless all 3 of you minus deluded Anton, this was bad, very bad 2

Hamza was overmarked. That AT did not deserve 10s. Mollie and Will were both fantastic.
Mollie slightly underscored.

I didn't like Helen samba as well. It was too stiff.
Ellie was ok, but not as good as the others.
Wasn't keen on Fleur rumba either.

hopefully Helen eliminated tonight, can't stand that woman


Molly vs Helen hopefully

I agree 100%

I like her, but her Latin Isn't great.

i'm manifesting a Patrick Grant participation for 2023, that sewing bee judge would be brilliant and a great older partner for Amy too i think

Next week is Musical Week. I'm so excited for that!

Ellie and Johannes both in tears. This is so emotional :bawling:
