Strictly Speaking

absolutley loved the show tonight the whole production team deserve a huge pat on the back, good saturday night entrtainment. I did"nt notice the slippage in Chelsee"s dress. really hope not too much is made of that,the poor girl was so upset. otherwise super costumes, makeup and splendid choreography,even thought Nancy improved! and I don"t usually like her at all!!

I think it's time they sacked the wardrobe mistress!

I wish the wardrobe department had given Chelsee a dress that actually fitted her. Poor kid didn't have the experience or the aplomb to cope with a bit of slippage. Mind you, I didn't notice it at the time, so ran it back to see what the fuss was about and it was very hard to spot even when I was looking for it.

Quote from Wiki re.Nancy:
'In December 2008, Dell'Olio was interviewed on the BBC news analysis programme Newsnight, but, according to interviewer Jeremy Paxman, no one could understand what she said.'
So it isn't just me!

Fright night!!
Am I alone in thinking that Nancy had turned up in her normal clothes and make-up? (Miaow)
She dances as if she has had several too many - I wonder if she can walk in a straight line!!

Enjoyed most of the show but surely now the woman must see that even Anton has run out of patience. A good comment and she takes credit, while a bad one means it's Anton's fault!!

Well ...some good dances tonight ...interestingly ...those who did 'ballroom' have all come out on top.

The last couple of weeks the couple in 11th place have exited ...guess who's there tonight??

And what on earth does Sir Trevor Nunn see in her? No! Don't answer that, grandads, please.

Doesn't the woman realise that the more exposure she gets, the more she is making a fool of herself? Rhetorical question - of course she doesn't. She has no self-awareness.

Annobel, I saw that, Grahams face was a picture she was quite unintelligable. Its amazing that someone, who is supposed to be intelligent has so little undertsnading of how she is perceived by the public.

Nancy is on the Graham Norton Show and I can hardly understand a word she says. Graham is also confused, though Joanna Lumley is making an attempt to communicate. Her English really is garbled. Maybe better in Swedish?

On It Takes Two last night, I saw a bit of Saturday`s programme that I must have missed, Nancy saying "we`re very near to being very good"!! Who is she trying to kid?

I'm not allowed to vote Annobel! NOT ALLOWED
Since the trauma of last year's phone bill after it was revealed the Doting Grandma spent £50 voting for Kara Tointon there is an "agreement" that ONE vote per week is allowed by the Doting Grandma - who last week voted for Chelsee ( you just don't know how much my stomach turns spelling out that in typing though I think she is really good -such a Manc)

Ah! Now we know who's voting for Nancy!

I had my doubts about Nancy but am warming to her
The Doting Grandma says " I know what you mean by "warming" to her "... and then rolls her eyes skyward

em....have you thought......perhaps there are folks out there voting for her just to see her fall flat on her face?

LOL!!!!

Sorry numberplease - was being remarkably dim there, wasn't I? You're right and my attempt at conspiracy was a non-starter! We'll just have to wish she falls flat on her face. Mind you it is the Hallowe'en show and I'm sure she'll make an excellent witch........miaow

Well ..everyone I've spoken to agrees with us ...I've not found anyone who has admitted voting for her ...so perhaps gracesmum has a point when she posted about the trustworthiness of the voting system

yes Annobel ...I do vote ...but not normally until the later stages of the series. Doesn't part of the cost of the call go to "Children in Need"?

Wouldn't they make a lot of money with a negative vote!!

It would be easier maybe, if we could vote her off, but we`re actually voting to keep folk on, so it needs people to NOT vote for Nancy.

Funny isn't it? We are all being quite vociferous about the Nancy woman but none of us is actually voting her off. Maybe we should go for it this Saturday and we might just manage to dislodge her with our 'block vote'.

Rory should have stayed and that horrid woman should go - I think Anton would be quite relieved! I have voted in the distant past but not recently. Hopefully next week will give things a bit of a lift

I see we have two injuries ...
Robbie ..broke his nose on the camera at the end of the dance
Russell ...damaged knee in Tango ...awaiting MRI scan!! News item full of woe ...may have to leave etc ...let's hope that's just media hype.

Unlike James ranting on ...we heard nothing of these injuries in the programmes!!

So who are the true professionals then??

I usually vote, but haven`t done so far this year.

I refuse to waste my money on voting !

As a matter of interest, do any of us vote? I did once or twice - but not in recent years - when I thought that a popular soap star might outvote a much better dancer. I think it was the first series, when Natasha Kaplinski won. I wonder how she would match up with the winners of subsequent series like Alesha Dixon or Mark Ramprakash (my favourite!).
