Yes, he admited himself he had taken a step backwards this week. I expect they all have weeks like that and it will urge him on to do better next week. Whether it will be enough to keep him out of the bottom two remains to be seen.

I can't help feeling on some forums there is a bit of ageism as regards Denise. I think she has improved probably the most out of those left, she is not amongst the best there of course, but is a lot better than she is sometimes given credit for. It doesn't matter if a contestant is liked or disliked on that show, if they do well they deserve the praise, if not then as usual many of us will lay into them for it

I agree shes not the best one there but shes not the worst either, and i think like u say, people admire her because shes one of the ones who has made the most noticeable improvements from earlier weeks. I think if u can see theyre putting the effort in people tend to like that. If like Steven Arnold they dont even bother then why should anyone vote for them?

Yeah maybe with the age thing but then that didnt work for Angela Rippon did it lol

I dont mind Denise getting thru. I dont think she should win, but each week so far theres always someone worse than her, Dominic, Kerry, Dave, Johnson, etc Once it gets down to the last 5 or 6 i think she will struggle. Good on her for doing as well as she is though and for getting in the top 7 so far

I think when you look at someone like Kerry she just didnt improve, if anything she seemed to get worse. U can see Denise's performances get better each week even tho theyre not up to the standard of Laura Sam Chloe etc
