2. John & Johannes (-1) - Besides the mistake I thought that the dance was fun. A 32 was a really harsh score imo, especially compared to a couple of the other dances on the night.
3. AJ & Kai (-1) - In fairness the dance was a bit messy in parts (even away from the obvious mistake) but bottom of the leaderboard! Really?!
4. Dan & Nadiya (Non-Mover) - He clearly got overscored tonight, to say that he was near John and better than AJ on a technical level is just absurd from the judges.
5. Rose & Giovanni (-2) - Technically she weren't the worst, but she played it far too safe imo (apart from one move) it was basically like all of her other slow schmaltzy ballroom dances imo. I feel like the judges give her bonus points just for turning up.

Again a lot of overscoring tonight from the judges imo, but that has been happening all series I suppose.

My rankings anyway.

First Round of performances:
1. AJ & Kai (+2) - Technically a strong Quickstep, I'm not sure about it being a 40 though.
2. John & Johannes (Non-Mover)
3. Rhys & Nancy (-2)
4. Rose & Giovanni (Non-Mover)

Second Round of performances:
1. Rose & Giovanni (+3) - Fair play to Rose this was a strong performance, again I don't know about it being a 40 dance (personally I felt like John & AJ had better AT's) but it was much better than practically all of her previous performances imo.
2. AJ & Kai (-1)
3. Rhys & Nancy (Non-Mover)
4. John & Johannes (-2) - I normally like John's dances and normally defend him on here, but to me I couldn't get around the Coldplay Music being in a Jive. I know that it's a stupid reason to dislike a dance, but it took my attention away from his performance which is a bad thing to have happen imo.
