Go on JustGinnie let us in on the name of the couple, we won't tell anyone ;-) :-D

Have to agree that it might be Punam and Nick in the dance off. I like both of them but it wasn't their week sadly. I think Nick did well considering his injury and less rehearsal time. I would like Punam to stay as she seems to be enjoying so much.
This year I don't have a favourite couple to win but there are a couple that I can't take to although they are good.

I thought Paul had upped his game and looked quite dapper in his tails, what a difference a week makes :-)

Also, in no particular order ;-), had Montell whose Viennese Waltz was elegant, Sam who was well out of her comfort zone with her sexy Samba and Pete who has got more confident each week :-D :-D

Chris was Amaazing <3. Each week he is saying to Dianne I want to do more, some of those lifts even for a sighted person would have been difficult :-)

Tasha's Charleston was fantastic but I've heard she has dancing experience so it would be expected :-)

Loved the story that went with Wynne's tango, it was very cleverly choreographed :-(

I was disappointed with Punam's Jive especially after last week's performance which I thought would give her confidence :-(

Also, Nick's Charleston wasn't particularly good especially if you compare it with Tasha's :-0

For me Punam and Nick should be in the dance off with Nick to go :-0. I think though Nick might have a huge following, I hope this isn't the case, so might be voted in by the public in which case it should be Punam voted off :-(

Gosh that was another epic last night. :-0

As usual Chris was amazing. His timing and musicality were second to none. He deserves the highest praise every week. <3

Two big surprises for me this week. Paul with his quickstep. Who knew after his novelty dances of the last two weeks. Also Pete with his Tango. Both have upped their game to a new level. :-)

Shane did a snappy Cha Cha, and Wynne with his Tango too. Both very good, but obviously different to each other. :-)

I wasnt keen on Sarah's Foxtrot, there was not enough steps for me, and an awful lot of twirling.

Montell was graceful as always with her Waltz, and Tasha gave a blast ending to the show with her Charleston. :-D

I think it may be Nick with his Charleston, which had very little content, and Punam with her Jive which I thought was sluggish, in the Dance Off.

It is another epic bum numbing show tonight :-0 :-0

Nick Knowles has been cleared to take part. So back to full strength. :-)

I agree the right result :-)

Although I thought Paul should be in the dance off, I was surprised he was as often the footballers have a huge fan base :-0

So it looks like it will be Paul next week unless he improves tremendously :-0

Yes good result.should be Paul next.

The right person went this week, Toyah.

I fear it will be Paul next week though. :-0

Sticky brain more like :-D

I thought you may have had a sticky finger Ann, as you said your liked Tasha's dance :-D <3

Sorry MTG Yes I did thank you and have edited it now.

Did you mean Toyah and Paul in the dance off, Ann?

I agree that most have improved especially if you think back to the first week.... noticeably so Shayne, I did like his Viennese Waltz :-)

I'm not sure how Chris masters the steps if he can't see how they are done :-0. Again, he did a fantastic job especially as The Jive is fast and furious. Credit again to Dianne for her teaching skills :-)

I thought Tasha did very well with her Rumba, so sensual :-0. Also thought the blonde wig suited Aljaz ;-)

Punam looked the part in her Bollywood take, hopefully this performance will give her some confidence :-)

Sarah was very light oh her feet for her Viennese Waltz as was JB in his American Smooth :-)

Wynne and Sam really looked the part. Wynne was entertaining and Sam improved on her Charleston from the previous week :-)

I think all the feathers on Jamie's costume distracted from his dance :-(

I too think Toyah and Paul should be in the dance off :-0. No doubt Paul has a huge fan base so sadly someone else will most probably be in the dance off :-(. Think Toyah should go this week though :-)

Another good, if long show. I was not keen on the professional's opening dance, but that is because of movie week.

I am not a fan of costumes either but agree Shirley did look great.
I loved the Indian dance by Punam, so dignified yet happy and the audience were silent. Not often I like couple's choice, the only other one I liked was Rose a couple of years ago.

A lot of the contestants are dancing really well, lovely to watch and, yes, I liked the two viennese waltz.
Loved Tasha's Rumba and Chris continues to amaze.
I would have liked to see Jamie's dance without all the feathers, he is so light on his feet and does seem to be really enjoying himself.

Well it should be Toya (sorry edited) and Paul in the dance off. I hope Paul's supporters don't keep him in as that means somebody better will be in the dance off.

Another bum-numbing show last night! :-D :-D

Most of the contestants have improved again, but sadly a couple have not.

I am not a fan of Movie week, with the dressing up, but I though Shirley looked fantastic. :-D

I thought Punan with her Bollywood dance was fantastic. We have not seen the like on Strictly before, and it showed her heritage to its full advantage. <3

I thought the two Vienese Waltzed by Sarah and Shane were beautiful. I think it is becoming my favourite dance. :-)

Chris once again was fantastic. His jive was fast and snappy, in the words of Wayne. Excellent! :-D :-D

Wynne did a very good Mrs Doubtfire with his Cha Cha. Sam had a super dramatic Paso Double.

Tasha's Rumba was smooth and sensual.

Sadly Toyah and Paul have not progressed, and I think it will be them in the dance off. I presume it was a joke when Toyah's husband started to Boo, but thought it a bit strange. :-0

I disagree Belle. There could be another half hour of the contestants screaming up with Claudia. :-D :-D :-D ;-)

There wouldn't be a Sunday show if they didn't ;-) :-D

Not heard that either Gwyn. Presumably he will get a buy through to next week.

I wonder if there will be a dance off in the circumstances? :-0

I hadn't read that, Gwyn....hope he is ok :-)
