It isn't something I usually comment on but

Leslie Joseph is 71 in two weeks time!!!!!!!

Oh, Petra, so did I, but give him his due, he is trying hard and actually seems like a nice guy.

oldgoat Sun 09-Oct-16 19:39:58

AIBU in thinking that the loud cheers of applause for the professional dancers which burst over the guest singers efforts is really rude?

aggie Sun 09-Oct-16 19:41:50

Oh I do agree OG , really awful , bad enough all the cavorting while the singers perform without the yelling

Jane10 Sun 09-Oct-16 19:57:01

Awwww Tameka shouldn't be out. She was such fun. Anastacia? Pah!

Wobblybits Sun 09-Oct-16 19:58:19

We wus robbed

BlueBelle Sun 09-Oct-16 19:59:10

Agree re Ed the ted Petra
Don't think those two should have been in the dance off Anastasia should have gone

dramatictessa Sun 09-Oct-16 19:59:22

Alastair should have gone.

aggie Sun 09-Oct-16 19:59:25

we wus !!!!

BlueBelle Sun 09-Oct-16 20:01:09

Alistair that's a new one dramatic LOL

petra Sun 09-Oct-16 20:04:20

Who's Alistair?

Jane10 Sun 09-Oct-16 20:08:12

Don't know but he's better than Anastasia!

Alima Sun 09-Oct-16 20:11:36

What a shame Tameka is out, she was so entertaining. Should have been Anastasia or Ed Balls I reckon. (gulligranny, I hope you are feeling better soon!)

nanatobe Sun 09-Oct-16 20:19:02

Was Tameka showing a bandage around her knee at the end? Wonder if she was suggesting she danced with an injury?

Wobblybits Sun 09-Oct-16 20:32:11

Yes she did have a knee injury, she was either showing it off as a garter or that she was not going to duck out of the dance off because of an injury.

nanatobe Sun 09-Oct-16 20:37:54

I thought it might be a dig at Anastasia?

Jane10 Sun 09-Oct-16 20:43:27

I hope it was!

petra Sun 09-Oct-16 20:58:10

I thought it was a gun holster.

cornergran Sun 09-Oct-16 21:01:48

Whatever it was I wish she was still there. Entertaining and genuine.

nanatobe Sun 09-Oct-16 21:14:38

Me too, neither she nor Laura should've been in the dance off. But they are all so good this year, it will get difficult very quickly to call it each week.

NotTooOld Sun 09-Oct-16 21:18:28

I thought Tameka was having a dig at Anastacia, too. Quite rightly. Shame T is out. Just goes to show you never can tell.

Ana Sun 09-Oct-16 21:28:37

I know there can't be any question of 'fixing' on the vote, but I did think earlier that it would look bad for the Beeb if Anastacia was sent home this week.

Bet she goes next week!

Nandalot Sun 09-Oct-16 21:30:55

I agree, will miss Tameka. I like Ed. he is trying so hard and has shown an ability to throw himself into it and to act a part. Still think Craig is particularly mean in his marks for him. Loved seeing Yvette's face watching him. she was almost crying with laughter. Some really good dancers this year. Loved Claudia's Charleston.

BlueBelle Sun 09-Oct-16 21:39:17

Cant there be any question of phone fixing, pretty sure it's been done before Ana maybe I m just cynical but I wouldn't trust it

Jane10 Sun 09-Oct-16 22:02:03

I agree Bluebelle

dramatictessa Sun 09-Oct-16 22:10:26

Alistair must be a figment of my phone's imagination (my comment of 19:59). Which Alistair could it be thinking of - Darling, Campbell, Brownlee? Which one would be likely to participate in Strictly?
