It is a beautiful song and very emotive if you have memories like that Madge.

I think it would be good if, for once, the public didn't keep the worst dancer in. She hasn't even really got comedic 'value' so maybe they will vote Suzanne and Anton out. I do like Anton but feel he would be fine with being voted out, he has got a lot of other things going on. did I read he has written a novel? Or was that somebody else.

I agree with most of the comments and didn't know about Susannah and fox hunting. I felt a bit sorry for her, but she needs to smile more!

I think it isn't just past dance experience that gives an advantage, being used to performing in front of an audience/film crew as a singer/interviewer etc is a big advantage nerve wise too!

I think Joe might surprise us with ballroom dances as he has great flexibility and posture and seems to want to get things right. On the other hand he's been able to introduce a bit of his own freestyle in his dances up to now....not so much freedom with ballroom!

Is Bruno overdoing it a bit and going OTT or is it me?

Ann, Bruno is always OTT, he loves attention.

Annin Glos,
I bought a book a few months ago in a charity shop that Anton had written,as a friend idolises him and travels a long way to see him and Erin when they are on their theatre tours.
Can’t remember the title,but it wasn’t new..

Yeah no more Anton :-D

Well that wasn't a surprise :-D

I think Susannah will be well pleased at that result....I know if I had been in her shoes I would :-D :-D

I didn't vote last week - first time - couldn't think who i wanted to keep in.

Shame to see Anton go but it was the better option. I dont like Sean - made up my mind he is not taking anything seriously including his partner. i think they should given them at least 2 weeks before they start voting people off.

I do like Faye - most were good Danny/Charles Dr Ranj/Kate/Joe/ Vick

Grahame a bit over the top, but may get better -
Lauren tried her best but somehow not warming to her -
i think Stacey will be good - but wish she would shut up as talks too much about nothing and is getting on my nerves

Katie think she is brave after all she has been through - but the makeup team have made her into a barbie doll and i dont think she is very graceful, may be better at Latin

Still dont actually know who to vote for this year. First time ever i have no ideas from the start.

Well, some upped their game this week! Even Shaun seemed to be taking it seriously.

Love Kate, she is coming on in leaps and bounds, and Katie too seems to have beaten her nerves.

I think Faye and Ashley are the forerunners. But I believe they have had previous training. I would like to think a non-dancer would win it overall, but somehow I don't think it will happen.

Not quite sure who will be booted out, as some of the less talented dancers are very popular. Hard call.

All seems to have got very serious very quickly the quality of celebrity dancers this year is excellent. So nice as well that we do not have to put up with I love me Anton so early in the series.

Katya is very clever, Sean very impressive. So was Graham. Felt for Kate and that stumble but well recovered.To much faffing about with Vick go bored waiting. Ashley and Pasha was very good. Good quick step from Faye. Stacy and Kevin was excellent.

I vote for Ashley Stacy and Kate as I enjoyed theirs dances the most.

:-D

I do like Kate, she seems a nice person. Ashley was good and I thought Shaun was actually trying hard this week too. difficult to know who will go out. Doesn't seem to be an obvious one.

I felt for Kate when she slipped, but she did make light of it. And she carried on without any fuss.

I too was very impressed with Katya. Her stomach and legs must be made of concrete to do that back bend! I would like to think I could do it...………..but no blooming chance. :-D :-D :-D :-D

My word, hadn't a lot of them really upped their game. Such a good standard and so early in the series. I nearly had to look away with some of the brave lifts! Yes, Katya does some amazing choreography! I always feel sorry for the contestant when the judges criticise choreography as it isn't their fault, but can affect their scores.

That back bend was amazing.

Lee knew himself he was going, and was quite gracious about it.

Onwards and upwards.

The curse..........

Strictly Come Dancing's Katya Jones's husband Neil breaks silence after Seann Walsh kissing pictures

http://www.digitalspy.com/tv/strictly-come-dancing/news/a867893/strictly-come-dancing-katya-jones-husband-neil-jones-breaks-silence-seann-walsh-kissing-pictures/

Last Saturday was a turning point in Sean's dancing on Strictly he did a very good paso or should I say Katya did and made him look better than he actually is.

The news of their kiss innocent or not will not be received well from harden strictly fans, Neil Jones (katya's old man) is very much liked and respected and said harden strictly fans wait for the day that Neil gets his very first celebrity dancing partner. Sean's now ex partner of 5 yrs will of done him no favor's either :-0

I thought that Katie would go. I don't think she ever really got over her nerves, sadly. But she did give it a go, and was very gracious in her defeat. I think it may be Graham next week. The rest are just too good.

Kate admitted that it was not her dance this week, but she is doing ballroom next week, which she prefers. I was really surprised that Charles was in the dance off again. I think they have one goodish dancer up against one not so good to make the dance off a clearer choice.

A new element in the competition will spice it up a bit, the Couples Choice.

I dont know why Charles is in the dance off - theFfB site always has him and Karen in last place for viewer popularity.

I wondered if it was a Karen thing after what she did to Kevin.

Yes, it must be demoralizing to repeat being in the dance off. katie was the right choice, a pity but she disn't seem to improve. However she has been a good role model and she was very gracious as you said MTG. Kate is popular and well known but is not a natural dancer, I wonder how long the public will keep her in?

I don't know what Karen did to Kevin to be honest. I know they are separated but that is all.

I wasn't sure about the line up this years, but they all seem quite affable. Although a couple of them are starting to grate on me.

No names, just follow the direction of my eyes. :-D
