bring Arlene back - deffo not Alicia Dixon!!!

I googled looking for info and this is some of what came up.

“I’m having my hip operation next week as my surgeon told me I absolutely had to have it done now,” the dancer and choreographer tells Woman magazine. “So I’m going under the knife at 6am this Sunday, giving me a whole week to recover for the live shows.”

I think Karen Hargreaves is on standby :-D

I did see somewhere he mentioned judging from his wheelchair.

Karen or Arlene would be great if Craig does not make it

Wonder how BBC could have made such a big mistake as they should have not shown him on tonights programme.

Yes we all know it is recorded on Saturday.

I think that Ben has improved big time.
Fiona, Susannah and Debbie not so good this week.

Dave need to move around the fall more, just to show of his dance "moves" if he wants to be taken seriously and to stay another week.

For some reason Rachel is not popular with my "ladies on the bus" (special bus for people with mobility difficulties - most of them in their 80's) So I wasn't too surprised when she was in the dance off.

Fiona is doing the quick step (I think) this Saturday - so might be in trouble again, especially as she has got herself in Len's bad books.

Looking forward to it (as usual).

I think Fiona is floundering a bit too. I thought she was a nicely brought up young lady, so was a bit surprised when she answered Len back! He, more than the others, gives support and good advice and picks out their good points.

Deborah should have worn red jazz shoes for her jive, rather than those clumpy white trainer things. She looked really dumpy on those.

Lovely to see Vincent and Flavia on Takes Two. Makes you realise what the show is missing. They are to do a show dance some time in the series, I hope it is the Argentine Tango. Sex on a stick!

:-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

I watched Ben on DVD last night and had to rewind twice and watch it again :-O

Agree with you about Deborah MtG - those white trainers really let her down. You must know the feeling ;-) At least she wasn't wearing black tights ;-) :-D

I actually laughed at Fiona when she answered Len back well not actually at her lip but the sheer shock on her face " There was only 1 mistake" really love I am not pro judge but I spotted more than 1, she starts off well but she always manages to forget her steps , or balance or making a pigs ear out of it, now Mark is entertaining, even Dave is improving he will never beable to dance but you can tell he listens to Karen and has took in everything she has taught him, arms straight head back. I feel Fiona'd days are numbered.

For me:

Natalie and Armpit are too smug.....
Rachel and Pasha ...she is annoying and stiff, but the public love Pasha and who wouldnt.
Debra and Robin......not in it for the long haul
Patrick and his partner.....one to watch
Ashley and Ola....she is in it to win it and he could
Abby and Ashthingy ......another 1 to watch.
Ben and Christina .....he is improving and she is a letch
Mark and Miss Flukeashoooter ..... love him and her
Dave and Karen....he is sweet public will keep in till it gets serious
Suzanna and Kevin from Grimsby........she is showing signs of being deranged
Anton and Fiona.......... I felt so pleased for Anton this year.

Right, that's it! Hayley has spoken :-D

Am I the only one that likes Sophie Ellis Bextor :-S

Lesley x

No you are not alone. I like her, love to watch the expressions on her face too.

Thank you Ann :-D I was beginning to wonder.

Lesley x

I think Sophie's lovely and very good. She doesn't seem to have succumbed to the orange tan either, favouring the pale, english rose look. :-)

Something very graceful about Sophie isnt there. I too like her :-D

Well done our Hayley for your very knowledgeable, almost professional in fact! run-down on the dancers....'making a pigs ears of it.'....'she is a letch'.....'too smug' :-D :-D Yes. well ;-) <3

I also think Sophie is one to watch :-)

I think Christina thinks she is the next Marilyn Monroe..
She's not imo...someone hear a cat mewing :-D :-D :-D

Emma :-)

Tonights show coming on soon.

Patrick has injured his hand, during a roller skating session! Doesn't know if he will dance tonight - bet he does!

Natalie still in great pain, doesn't know if she will dance tonight - bet she does!

Fiona struggling with her moves!

But the good news of the week....................Erin Boage [think I spelt it right] Anton's professional partner, is going to have a baby!

Aaaaaaah!

:-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Pleaseeeeeeee Dave to leave, and why are
they giving him a standing ovation :-S :-S :-S

Also in dance off for me Rachel......edited

Just watched the 'dead ringer' of a fab member on here :-D
