Strictly 2025

Balvinder puzzles me Charleygirl as she seems to hold back, when usually actors have a real presence and give dances character.

I think it should be Harry and Ellie in the dance off, but I suspect that the people's vote may keep Ellie, although her days, I believe, are numbered. I feel sorry for Balvinder, as I think this will be the third time in the dance-off.

JoJo is my favourite

I’m thinking George,
and Balvinder.
I think Amber did enough in her dance to stay out of the bottom two (but what do I know?)

So who do you think will be in the dance off?

I think it ought to be Ellie and Vito (dancing wise) but expect it will be Balvinder and Julian... why doesn't the audience like her?

I had no idea who she was but she does seem genuine and invested in learning. I know she still has a way to go... but I feel she has been in the dance off a lot - though haven't checked this.

I see Ellie just vanished after her dance and don't think she was spoken to whilst waiting for votes... I could be wrong

If you mean when Claudia chatted to them before the Judges votes came through, she was spoken to, but Vito fielded most of the answers.

I thought she looked very quiet after they came in, I imagine she has to be monitored quite closely and given extra support before the viewers votes are announced.

A breathing space after all the excitement.

Yes, I noticed Ellie wasn't on the balcony, just Vito on his own.

Yes I think Harry could be in danger tonight.

I think it might be Harry to leave this week, he wasn't on form in my opinion. It was a great show overall though, such a good standard this year.

Really enjoyed the show 👍🏻

Missing a SCD GN fan from this thread tonight 😪

Excellent show all round, from the high quality of dancing to the costumes and makeup, it was so entertaining.

What a great show. I loved it. I think George and Alexis might be in the dance off with Harry and Karen.

A terrific evening of dancing with fabulous costumes and makeup.

Really good dancing from everyone tonight.

I agree Grandmadinosaur. I love watching them dance.

Same here * Tilly*

Alex comes across as a genuinely lovely woman.

Her and Johannes make a good team.

Entertaining dance from Alex and Jojo. Often the Halloween night costumes overwhelm the dancing, but not this year.
Really enjoying the show.

Alex comes across as a genuinely lovely woman.

Wow that was good.

Great choreography from Carlos. Well done Karen. I love the Argentine Tango.

Fantastic performance by Karen and Carlos. Surely another few tens deserved here I hope.

Karen is my favourite professional . I’m disappointed to feel that wasn’t their best dance tonight.

I likecLe Voix and I wondered the same as York Lady.

Was anyone else shouting at the screen?
Lewis & Katya’s dance was terrific and they deserved the clean sweep of 10’s!

I leapt up from the sofa shouting "Yesss" when Craig got out his 10, and frightened my cat.
