"I just hope Seann doesn't get too much stick. Looking forward to it. Oh, also hope Ashley stops pulling those dramatic facial expressions. It's becoming pretty irritating " I think we all agree he should be judged on his dancing, whether all this will affect him, is yet to be seen  | |||

"I suspect no matter what happens Seann will suffer a backlash in votes so predicting him for the dance off before he's even danced unless his dance is particularly spectacular" Yes I agree. It's a shame it has come to this, but they knew what they were doing  | |||

"Very lacklustre show tonight. Faye is still my number one, followed by Danny John and Graeme Swan. Seann and Katya's performance showed they hadn't done a lot of training this week, Quelle surprise and I wonder if they are hoping to be in the bottom two tomorrow. I admire Katie and I think she should be in the dance off tomorrow, but I would think the public will keep her in." Have to agree - highlight for me was Stacey and Kevin - but overall not that great, think Katie and possibly Charles again for the dance off. Agree re Seann and Katya wasn't that impressed with their dance at all but the judges didn't seem to find much fault | |||

"You got that one right Gemini I think it was Katies time. She's a sweetheart and very eloquent in her manner, bless her. "Yeah it was - based on the dance alone hers was the poorest on the night - there's a few in the next tranche of ability including Lauren, Charles, Seann and Dr Ranj and to a lesser extent Graeme and Vick who will probably be the next few to go, although there's usually one surprise early on (maybe Danny much as I like him) - I also think Kate needs to refind her form after a poor week this week. I'd put a bet on an all lady final three of Ashley, Stacey and Faye as things currently stand with Danny an outside bet for that too | |||

"So I'm out of the country, can anyone tell me what last night was like and who you think will be eliminated tonight "Ashley and Danny were A-MAZ-ING darling 
Yesterday marked the very first ‘Couples Choice’ dance. Charles (mr cool!) opted for a Street Dance and was pretty awesome
Hopefully Sean will be voted off tonight - he wasn’t great and looked thoroughly uncomfortable throughout his routine (also possibly due to a lingering guilty conscience maybe?....) | |||

"To be honest I'm not sure either of those two should have been in the dance off based on this week's dances alone - should have been Kate and Danny and Kate to have gone as Danny would have corrected his mistakes. That said Ranj should have gone last week and wouldn't have lasted much longer. Think it's heading for an Ashley, Stacey and Faye final barring any disasters and would like to see Stacey win it not only because she's a non-dancer but I think it's about time Kevin won given how many times he's been close since joining." I like Danny's dancing but he did make some mistakes, so on balance, should have been in the dance off and Kate's Argentine tango was pretty awful. I agree with you on the final. Joe Suggs has done really well, but he doesn't have a lot of charisma | |||

My top three too, but don't care who wins as haven't warmed to any of them. Stacey's voice...aaaaahh!!! Thought it should have been Rav and Kate in the bottom two. Charles can't hold on for much longer as the public haven't warmed to him and sadly he also has the disadvantage of the awful Karen. | |||

"Was a difficult call but I think on balance the right decision was made - don't think Danny's cause will have been helped by the bad press this week either, but he's definitely gone backwards these past few weeks where others have improved.

"Every year there is much talk of ‘fixing’ on the show. I’m starting to wonder if Joe is being given a bit of a judges’ score boost in order to influence the public vote. Why? Well, Joe of course brings with him his very own loyal and very sizeable fan base - the YouTube generation crowd, which by logic and doubtless in the minds of the shows producers, consequently equates to more viewers and public interest. I should hastily add that I have nothing against Joe (In fact quite the opposite, as I’ve actually found him to be one of the most pleasant surprises on the show given that he has no dance background whatsoever) but the last two weeks I’ve really started to notice that his techniques are looking decidedly awkward.... Maybe it’s his overly slender frame? " You have a good point there, I too have felt he looks a bit awkward at times, but seems a nice lad and good that he is dancing at the Tower ballroom, where his grandparents used to dance and he's hoping his Gran will be there, she's 96! | |||

"Looks like what was reported was true then...he threw a strop on saturday and said he wouldn't go on" What an arse! I must say I’m very disappointed in him (always loved him as Cat in Red Dwarf). He now joins the dubious ranks of at least two other sour losing celebs from previous seasons; Carol Vorderman (wouldn’t come back after she was voted off) and Will Young who quit mid series a few seasons ago as his overinflated ego was irreparably injured after he received some minor criticism from the judges. | |||

"Charles and Ashley were my faves of the night. I personally thought the judges were a little harsh on Lauren; She has grown so much in confidence over the last few weeks. I hope tonight’s criticisms (and a possibility of a place in the dance offs) won’t knock her beautifully blossoming confidence too much. My guess, Graeme will be in the dance offs though and that for me at least, his time may have come (he’s done fantastically to get this far however) "yes, going to be an interesting results show.I think they've all worked very hard. | |||

"For me I'd have Graeme and Kate in the dance off - I thought Lauren was unfairly judged by comparison (although acknowledge I'm no expert) - both Graeme and Kate's dances lacked any wow factor and just did nothing for me, whereas Laurens I thought showed passion and determination even if it wasn't technically perfect." I agree with you and I think Kate will go. | |||

"An equitable result tonight I felt and a wonderfully graceful and dignified exit
What was that thing mentioned as new for next week?! "She is a lovely lady. Next week they're all doing the lindyhop together. Not sure how it works, but they used to eliminate the couples until there was one left | |||

"I'm getting rather good at this predicting thing
Personally I'd have voted for Kate based on the dance off though - although think Graeme, Lauren and Charles are next in line | |||

I think once the three you mentioned have gone, it's going to be a very close contest. Ashley is still my favourite to win at the moment, but I think Joe is a dark horse and could come through | |||

Ashley is still my favourite to win at the moment, but I think Joe is a dark horse and could come through "Joe's a bit too hmmmm bland and safe in his dances for my liking - don't get me wrong he's done fantastically well and has surprised me as I didn't think I'd like him when he was announced but comes across well as a person just don't think he's quite got the wow factor. I'm sticking to my Ashley/Stacey/Faye final three prediction and think Stacey may just steal it on the popular vote front coupled with her lack of previous dance/performing experience. | |||

Dance off tomorrow.......Graeme for one.
I must admit, I wasn’t overly impressed with Joe again but am wondering if he’s being kept in as long as possible (to appease and keep his sizeable following fan base watching by logic).
- Gawd, I’m starting to sound as bitterly suspicious as James Jordan!

"Hard to call between Stacey and Faye for dance of the night, but would probably go with Stacey as her dance drew me in more. Think it'll be Graeme and Lauren in the dance off although think Lauren was again harshly judged compared to others, and agree that Joe appears to be getting favourable treatment especially from Shirley and Bruno - no way did that dance deserve a 10!!" No it didn't, I didn't like it at all. | |||

"For the comments Ashley got about her dance I think she was over marked. Charles does his quickstep and gets only 1 mark more from Bruno than Danny got for his and he cocked up the whole dance. I have said it every year, it seems to be a fix for the judges marks but when it comes to just the public votes in the final the right people win. Graham and Lauren for the dance off for me with Lauren to go as she has no attack week after week" That’s a really interesting observation about Charles’ to Danny’s quickstep - yeah, that doesn’t sound fair. | |||

By floor last year we were in the same hotel. Got some nice photos and they were really nice people. | |||

"Think that goes to show the 'popularity' vs ability element of the programme - whilst it wasn't her best dance there's no way Ashley should have been in the dance off and think that may have a bearing when it comes to the final. Have to take my hat off to Graeme for a "Dad dancer" he's done pretty well and is obviously well liked by all concerned. Was I the only one that was particularly moved by the opening dance? I thought it was beautifully and very movingly done. And lowest points of the night have to go to Rod Stewart's voice!! " I loved his military jacket though (where can I get one?) | |||
