Strictly 2024

I think Tasha is a wonderful dancer, but I think Sarah puts more feeling into her dancing, she’s my winner

I’d like Tasha to win. I think she’s the best dancer.

I like Anton.

I like Anton as well. He’s not loud and he doesn’t shout over everyone.
I would be delighted to get a good mark from Craig though.

Chris's journey has been nothing but amazing, and very moving. But it's time to go now, and with head so high and great dignity. Wow.

I agree. He didn’t look comfortable with the paso and I would not like to see him struggle to stay in. He’s been fantastic!

Chris's journey has been nothing but amazing, and very moving. But it's time to go now, and with head so high and great dignity. Wow.

Think Chris is quite wonderful and has a natural sense of rhythm but do worry that part of his vote holds a degree of loving sympathy. I'm hoping like mad that BBC produces an in depth documentary of their training sessions which I would find fascinating. Sarah's my shining star. Absolutely amazing..........

So do I

I like Anton.

I agree about Anton. He seems to have changed this year and gone all daft.

Definitely a 10 from Craig is very valued.

I've always liked Anton, but he's getting sillier each week now.

Yes, I think Craig's opinion is the one most valued.... possibly Shirley's verbal advice comes 2nd when she's being sensible but her marks are often ridiculous.

Anton is pretty much of a joke in my view.

Tasha and Alijas really deserved their 40.

And that is why Craig hanging on to his 10 paddle until then is so telling.

The way the other three judges have doled out 10’s the past few weeks has been a joke in most cases.

I bet anything Craig’s ‘10’ is what they all strive for.

I've never seen Vito wear glasses before as he did in the training clip. Goodness, I almost hyperventilated. Some men look quite delicious in glasses. Top that with that very... err....sensual rhumba. Well it was a great way to end a miserable wet and windy day!

I agree about Lauren, that blonde wig really suited her, I'm not very keen on her rather austere haircut. I thought she looked like a dead ringer for Amanda Barrie. She is a terrific dancer and seems to have a very happy disposition.

JB's Charleston was such fun, loved it.

Chris is amazing. It's really difficult when voting between those with prior professional experience and someone like Chris who has overcome so much to dance.
I don't think the Paso was his best dance unfortunately.
Loved JBs Charleston- I've liked him from the beginning.
Tasha and Alijas were just beautiful with that American Smooth/foxtrot

I had been thinking the same thing about the blonde wig on Lauren. It suited her so much better than the quite harsh short cut.

I do so admire Chris, he must be giving such inspiration to others, and Dianne must be an amazing teacher.

What a wonderful evening of dance tonight, plus the music was just right for once. That Lewis Capaldi song is heartbreaking.

Pete and Montell in the dance off?

Tasha and Aljaz were wonderful.
All three votes have gone to Chris, I am just astonished that he is able to learn these dances

Oh that was well deserved 40. Absolutely beautiful.

Neil going crackers behind Tasha and Aljaz!

A well deserved 40!

Oh, that Lewis Capaldi song and that dance!

Breathtaking!

That Quickstep by Tasha and Aljaz was fabulous.

I think it will be Jamie and Pete in the dance off.
Chris is hanging on.

I think Chris is too wooden. Be interesting to see if he survives this week.

I think Chris is incredible but he did struggle a bit with that Paso.
