Jimmy was fantastic, and also enjoyed Karen, La Voix, Amber and Balvinder.

Thought Alex was a bit stiff... and George's routine was awful, especially for a CC. My bottom 2 of the night would be Ross and Chris though, need to get rid of both so the real competition can begin.

I thought that Jimmy did well too.

Especially as Rumba's can be really tricky early on in the series.

That's fair enough.

I think that Lewis is the one to watch out for though, as I think he topped this week's Entertainment Weekly poll.

…I was able to watch some of this yesterday…crikey I’m hooked already…I actually didn’t get to see Lewis’ dance, though…I was thinking that Jimmy might be the ‘dark horse’, I loved his dance yesterday…..and La Voix also was gorgeous, she’s not a Queen that I’m familiar with from her season but she’s a comedy Queen…?…her waltz not really her comfort zone but such a beautiful waltz to watch……and especially challenging for someone who has never worn a wig before ever…and that extra challenge of worrying it’ll stay in its place through the dance, she met that challenge beautifully……

She's sort of a jack-of-all-trades really... she was already an established name before auditioning and is able to sing, do stand-up, act, and - apparently - dance. Her drag is definitely of the "old school" variety and I think - had 3 of the previous 4 winners of the show already not been "camp, old-school UK drag" queens she would have deservedly won. I don't mind Kyran Thrax but she was outshone by La Voix basically all season.

I think Ru and Michelle try to hold the UK drag scene at an arm's length after their displeasure at comments made about them / the show by Paul O'Grady... so while the best UK drag queens are that Lily Savage archetype, the judges seem to be trying to shift the tides and turn us into dull USA clones

See: the current season (7)... the average age is far lower, and the show is suffering as a result. Nary a personality among the bunch

…oh I must read what Paul O’Grady/Lily said…I have to say that I did have a bit of a bad taste with Ru…(…I can’t recall the season…)…but it was when he criticised Jo Black, was that the Queen…?…well he didn’t criticise, he tore her down really and it wasn’t great to watch at all…the UK is just much, much smaller so that’ll reflect in that industry and also reflect in wardrobe budgets, I imagine…anyway, I did feel generally that it was becoming quite ‘style over substance’…and the styling is something that I love, obviously…but the talent and versatility as you say with La Voix, is such a part of Queens crossing over more into things like Strictly and such a shining part a winning Queen…

Love the Argentine tango

i want Stefan to survive one more week, for Icons week next week


i'm curious if he'll dance to John Farnham? or maybe the production saving Punkrocker for him? for Iggy Pop at Icons Week



anyway his waltz song it is you i have loved, they can save for next year, as long as they sign up Manu Bennett and pair him with Michelle, so we have the deathstroke waltz, Michelle is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo similar to Shado tbh
