Nigel as Bert fits him perfectly i think that role, and he is the king of musicals

and well Layton, i hope he doesn't come across as too annoying and actually decided to go for more actual technique rather than another showdance who am i kidding, that man is pure show

tiny bits of them in training for this week


all of them kinda look good (well apart from Layton, those paso lines in that bit, ouch they could be much much sharper, more polished but i bet CRH will overlook that for mr west end)

pushed back to 7:35



hopefully it is a free week, without an elimination


perfectly doable, also with sundays show just for the pro group dance, a chat with our semi finalists, a proper sendoff goodbye to nigel and katya, judges debrief and preview ahead of the semi final, when they get to do 2 dances for the first time, and guest performer Joss Stone

how about a bonus point public vote, for next week i mean?


the one with most votes gets 1 additional point added to next weeks score :think:

Shame Nigel has had to leave.b
But he wouldn't be able to dance such an energetic dance with a rib injury.
Oh well, I'll miss him and I've loved watching him.

Pleased there is no elimination this week.

Sad about Nigel though.

This is a mess of a song to dance to.

I agree, it was hard but Ellie pulled it off

They are talking to Nigel and Katya later. It'll be interesting to see.what they have to say.

I'm missing Nigel already.
But I can watch him on Casualty and classic EastEnders :love:

Oh Ellie was great but the music

Annabel was really good

Rib injuries are no joke. I once cracked my ribs and could hardly breathe, nevermind dance. I know how painful it is.

Annabel was good.
Again planning a foxtrot to that music must have been hard.

Not a fan of the music so far.

It's awful.

Yes, and that wasn't any better.AWFUL.

I didn't like Laytons performance.

They'll give him a 40 to try and keep him safe. I didn't think it was all that.

I agree

The music has sounded and been a mess all through.
Who chooses the music for goodness sake?

This should be better, I hope

Nigel and Katya would have scored high. Their training footage looked incredible. Oh well, nevermind. Accidents happen.

Layton was amazing, I know you all think he's a ringer etc but how can you think it wasn't good?
