Strictly, yay!

Johannes and John were wonderful now that did make me cry and that's not an easy thing to do

AJ and Kai for me. No contest. Quite wonderful.

John and Johannes were amazing.
I think either Dan or Adam to leave.
AJ gets it right every time.

O my goodness That Charleston !
She is such a great dancer

AJ just brilliant. Really enjoyed their Charleston. Best dance so far for me. Maybe Adam and Dan in the dance off?

Why oh why did Craig not give AJ a 10? It just doesn’t make any sense. The choreography content was full on and AJ not only executed the steps with aplomb, but she did it in true Charleston style with not a faulty foot or line to be seen. She genuinely could have a dancing career ahead of her if she chose.

I think Dan and Adam are just about as good as they can get now. Sara and Tilly have improved week on week, Tom and Rose are delightful and still pulling out really good dances - I think it should be Dan to go now.

I agree, GA. He said she was "A - ma - zing" and then only gives a 9.

Although Craig said AJ and Kai were amazing he did give them a minuscule criticism on one point. I can’t remember now what it was but once he does that he never gives 10. I’ve heard him say in the past if he finds a fault, no matter how minor, he won’t give a 10.

Was it something to do with AJ’s foot position Grannywn ? - ‘though her feet were moving so fast it looked perfect to me!
They looked like a pair of professionals.

I agree that AJ should probably have been awarded 4 tens, but secretly I am glad because for me Rose and Giovani did the perfect 40 points dance and I want to remember that most in my mind!

I am certainly no dance expert, but think this series has seen some unjustified 10’s,

Agreed, but when they’ve given unjustifiably high marks out already, where else is there to go?
I know the judges say how surprised they are to see some dancers in the dance off and that the public vote for their favourites, regardless of dance quality, but I think the judges do too.

That's why I think Adam might be in an unfortunate position because I'm not sure the judges like his partner, Janette. Certainly she doesn't like Craig.

Josianne Adam's partner is Katya.

Ooops yes, that's the one!

I can’t clearly remember now
TillyTrotter. I just remember thinking when he said it that he’ll only give a 9 now. He’s very reluctant to part with a 10!

AJ and Kai were amazing last night. I think they will be neck and neck with John and Johannes for the glitter ball.

Sorry, but I found John and Johannes' dance, (the rumba?) distinctly creepy. Not sure why.

Oh, let me guess why...

I thought it was lovely. ?

Wrong result again. Should have been Judy. Always the same when it reaches this stage in the competition. I always think I'm not going to watch it again! Not true though

Sorry, but I found John and Johannes' dance, (the rumba?) distinctly creepy. Not sure why.

I think I know what you might have meant meant eazybee. Not 'creepy" like the Hallowe'en dances but mesmerisingly evocative and tense. It was so slow and every movement was so exaggerated it was almost frighteningly spine tingling to watch.

Oh I meant Sara not Judy, I wonder where that came from!

Dan is the weakest dancer now, but popular.

Personally, I don’t rate Sara, and think it helps that Aliaz is very popular with the public.

Sorry that Adam is out, but thought that Tilly would get through.

oh Adam has gone, what a shame and we are left with Sara, Dan and the giddy one. I give up!

Well, I didn't expect those 2 to be in the dance off. Shame about Adam, but I thought that Tilly would get through.
Meanwhile Dan and Sara dance on.

Who is "the giddy one", lavenderzen ?

I expected Adam to be in the dance off. .but not tilly. glad he's gone
