Great job from Hamza but he'll be overmarked again :rolleyes:

I actually wasn't keen on it.
Too much standing still for me at times.

Maybe need to watch it again.

Didn't measure up for me though.
He will be overmarked

Yes he was vastly overmarked. I swear if one of the girls leaves over him. Sigh.

Magical Molly. I loved that.

Will. It's like he's trying too hard, and not having fun. I couldn't get into it.

My order of preference on first performances

1 Fleur
2 Helen
3 Molly
4 Hamza
5 Will

Fleur again. As close to perfection as you can get.

Helen. Elegant and precise but not as good as Fleur.

Hamza. Sorry but this bored me. Zzzz

Oh dear I feel I've a downer on Hamza tonight.
That was one of the poorest waltzes for me.

Good job I'm not voting on the panel tonight.

Same though Joey. I think Will should go out though.

Molly. She really is a survivor. That was passionate and dramatic. Enthusiastic and captivating. Get in.

Helen i loved it

Will! Redeemed himself totally. That flowed. He smashed it. I loved that. So cool. :love:

My order of second performances.

Fleur
Will
Molly
Helen
Hamza

Yeah after the show tonight I think will is the weakest. I like him and think he's a really nice guy and I love Nancy aswell but the other four couples I really really like and have done throughout so will leaving would be the ideal scenario for me. Molly's paso was the performance of the night for me!

Farcical marking tonight, even had Craig in on the act. Hamza, with comfortably the worst dance tonight, finishes top of the leader board. That waltz was the worst we've seen Tony went out, poor posture, stiff, footwork for the turns clunky. Both Charleston ok, but neither anywhere near a 10. Molly's paso the best of the 3. Didn't think Will's was good but the relativities of the marking are all wrong - his Paso was still better than Hamza's waltz.

Bit disappointed with the Argentine Tango, seen many better. Helen's waltz was good mind. Molly top for me tonight, two great dances. Helen with the edge over Fleur. I'm not fan of Couple's Choice and was expecting to cringe with Will's Madchester effort but actually it a bit better than expected, on the back of that I'd have Will slighty ahead of Hamza.

Thinking of score wise and who will progress to the final

Hamza will safely be through which I'm happy about I really like him. And I'd love to see his Ecuador salsa and the afro beats performances again


Molly thankfully did enough tonight to secure a place in the final. In the dance off they dance their higher scoring dance she does the paso noone can beat her apart from Hamza score wise and he won't be in the dance off
So she is through

That leaves Fleur, Helen and Will all in danger. Fleur will make the final if she is against will or Helen. If she is against Molly or Hamza she is gone.

If will is against Fleur, Molly or Hamza he is gone. If he is against Helen then Helen is gone.

Helen won't survive either way if she lands in the dance off. Her higher scoring dance was the Argentine tango. Everyone scored higher than her on their higher scoring dances.

Biggest chance of who leaves. Helen

Helen isn’t leaving expect Fleur and Will bottom two

Will seems massively popular so I doubt it ,I haven't watched any of the dances back. But I think Fleur is definitely in danger.

From what I've heard ,the judges are voting tactically again .

I'll start negative first because I've felt like this for awhile now with the Show, but it's finally broke me a little bit.

I'm honestly sick to death of Hamza's overscoring, like Rose last year he'll score a 36-39 purely off of mostly average to bad routines, and they only keep giving him these big scores just because he is a fan favourite, and by doing that it makes the Show look farcical when they're seriously trying to say that he is dancing at the same level as Fleur, Molly & Will, and tbf even Helen's AT was better than anything that Hamza has done in weeks.

And to be even more controversial, besides his Salsa and his Couples Choice performances, can anyone honestly name another really stellar Hamza performance? Like one that you'll remember as an iconic Strictly performance?

I'd also say that Will's Paso was harshly underscored, especially compared to some of the other dances in that round.

Molly had a good night, especially with her Paso surprisingly.:laugh:

Helen had a good AT imo, and bizarrely Shirley scored it lower than Hamza's AT a few weeks back.:joker:

And Fleur I thought did really well with the Charleston, but her Paso had really odd Music imo, I feel like it was an act of sabotage from the production.

And yes I get that it's just a Celeb dancing show, but I can't stand it when the competition is blatantly favouring one competitor over the rest of the others, it makes me resent Hamza's presence on the Show even though it's not even his fault, but I can't help it.

Mock of course it's NOT Hamza's fault , so that's not really fair to say you 'resent him' . Why don't you resent Shirley ?? . She's the one being bias and ridiculous all the time .

Oh I already don't like Shirley that's why, her judging is incredibly biased imo.

And I know that it's not Hamza's fault, and he does seem like a nice guy.

But like with Rose last year he is getting an easy ride off the judges, and I do resent that aspect about the last couple of Strictly winners.

Will is the only non dancer left. No dancing experience whatsoever. I would love to see him in the final.
And he's not the weakest. I think he's great.

I think the judges are overscoring Hamza.
Maybe his vote is not as strong as Will and Helen?
Will and Helen are constantly underscored.
