I fear for Ed with the Salsa.
|
|
By:
why would they want to save Daisy for Blackpool?
They were happy enough to have four women in the final a few years back so they can't be that bothered about balancing the sexes. |
|
By:
Gangnam-style Salsa should be daft enough to get him to Blackpool, then he is on the slippery slope I reckon
|
|
By:
Daisy has seemed well liked by the judges / show....not sure that means that they'd want to save her this week though TBH
|
|
By:
Katya seems to be really enjoying herself with Ed.
|

By:
on saturday someone said improving may mean ed is at risk as he loses the comedy appeal and i get that but i'm thinking his fans may like the fact he is getting better and want him to stay around a bit longer. i dont know much but imo katya is doing a great job with him. this dance may give him two chances, improving or it going wrong and comedy gold???
good info squares thanks. |

FLL will be beside himself - Gethin and Pamela

Katya has been a brilliant addition to the show.....I'm expecting a few more ties on the LB this week and Ed to make the Holy Grail of Blackpool where the LB ties will miraculously disappear
|
|
By:
Grant went top to out didn't he? A Blackpool exit looks almost inevitable.
|
|
By:
I'll probably be looking toward Claudia and Rinder to join Daisy. But nowhere near the certainty of last week.
|
|
By:
Surely Greg's got to be a contender too for B2. Safely through every week so far but up against the better dancers he's not great is he.
|
|
By:
Depends how popular he is with the public Lou,and therefore how many points he scores from the public vote.
He has a Paso this week which could be a crowd pleaser.TBH he's someone who I find it difficult to predict how his PV is doing. |
|
By:
I'm more confident ATM of Judges PV than Greg's,but Judge has a potentially uninspiring Foxtrot to contend with this week.
|
|
By:
I think the Foxtrot will be a nice spectacle with his tails and bow tie garb probably and he'll do it well. He said he's been looking forward to this one so I think he'll do it well.

Back by popular request after a few messages. Don't know why anyone would miss me but no shortage of saddos on here I guess. Not sure I have much to add as not bothered with XF and just dabbling with SCD.
fwiw I think the market only makes sense if the machinations of TPTB are factored in...as per the "Get Jay" disgrace final night last year. Ore at 3.4s or whatever was a joke and 8s the same...100/1 more like. Completely voter unfriendly. If a level playing field I'd also say Louise at 3.7 is a max lay. 20/1 shot for me. Claudia infinitely more voter friendly and I sense anger at perceived favouritism of Louise over her. Last Saturday was Louise's highwater mark for me. Backed Claudia in o/r as possible trade and also t/f at 5/2 seems value. Problem is the coonts are undermarking her to justify getting rid of her at some point over Louise. Then there is the Judge...the true journey candidate this year. Topping vote or near enough methinks? Oh and Danny who probably wins..2.34 will look like free money if Louise if pimped to final. So clean fight Danny Claudia and Rinder the final....cue Claudia v Rinder dance off this week. |
|
By:
he's baaaaack
 I'm crying  good insight Master Bailey, think I'll bring Claudia on board. Not so sure Rinder is topping the votes though. |
|
By:
Yeah may be wrong re rinder but he's doing very well I suspect
|
|
By:
good to see you back george. the silly gurning has put many on here off rinder. i dont know if this is still the case but one week he was on itt and he said he didnt do any training on the monday and tuesday of that week.
i've particularly missed your views on the us election. |
|
By:
hi jolly....my head is spinning with the election so you haven't missed much. Falling asleep aside I'm up all night so will be on the thread.

Master Bailey played a blinder with the EU referendum. I am waiting for the signal to umpa lumpa.

Love Ore

By:
more awful, non-traditional music for Claudia
love GIITH, but not sure about it for a Salsa and not looking forward to the "singing" disappointed it's not traditional AT music for Danny, seems too fast for an AT classics for Greg, Rinder and Louise Rumba for Ore - yikes  |
|
By:
Good Evening
|
|
By:
also disappointing to have "singing" during the AT
|
|
By:
I think GIITH is an awful song for salsa
 |
|
By:
Thanks for the info, Hems. Didn't see your post, was wondering what Squares knew that I didn't
 |
|
By:
Not sure about Louise's song for the AS.
|
|
By:
yes, doesn't seem like it has the right "beat" for a Salsa - a lot of stopping and starting
|
|
By:
Karen loved Ed's QS
|
|
By:
IHITTG doesn't seem to be a song suitable for AT either
|
|
By:
I just wish they would have stuck to the QS and not kept stopping to do the silly slapstick stuff which didn't do it for me
|
|
By:
doesn't really hems - more like a track for a fiery rumba
|
|
By:
I agree in a way, Squares. But Ed having to do all the slapstick stuff too, made it more impressive for me. It was a hard rouitine to do and his timing of it all was excellent.
Go Ed! |
