More than 4,000…

Based on the dance-off I’d put Lynda through.Rav really let himself down in that dance-off, with a worse performance than actually during the competition. Hat off to Lynda though, i’d written you off but you upped your game in the dance-off and definitely deserve to come back next week. So, another week, another celebrity going…
Read MoreMoment of truth and dance-off
As predicted the audience have saved Joe Calzaghe.Will Jo Wood also be saved? Phil Tufnell will have a hard job next week as I imagine he can’t train until he recovers from his knee surgery. Whether she’s through or not I think they’ll leave Jo until the final three anyway, just to up the suspense.…
Read MoreSalsa showdance & Andy Williams
Will have to look closely and decipher a few new moves to add to the repertoire.Although I wasn’t actually that impressed with the performance, I don’t tend to criticise professionals but that did look a little amateur at times and I think slower music would’ve allowed for a better performance all round. Andy Williams A…

Read MoreRicky Groves & Erin Boag – Paso Doble
Facial hair seems to be a theme this week, let’s see if Ricky can master the posture and lose the hips – save them for the other Latin dances!He’s certainly come out on the floor with the right attitude, not too sure about the scream though, is he in pain? The trouble with wearing a…
Read MorePhil Tufnell & Katya Virshilas – Quickstep
So Phil has a knee problem and is going in for surgery tomorrow, let’s see how it affects this quick and high-impact dance.I wonder if Katya had to adjust the routine after Phil’s knee diagnosis? Nice start though needs to relax the shoulders and they lose connection just as they’re starting the scatter chasses. A…
Read MoreJo Wood & Brendan Cole – Paso
I had Jo down as the one to exit last week, let’s see if she can repay all those people who voted for her.Well definitely a better performance than last week, though needs to keep her head up, and her shoulders are a little off line at times. Shame about the end being mucked up.…
Read MoreLaila Rouass & Anton du Beke – Quickstep
Anton is the only actual Ballroom professional in the males so this should be good.With Anton’s charm, and Laila’s looks this could be the first time he makes it to the final, but let’s get through the first couple of months eh Anton! A couple of mistakes there, and for me the dance is lacking…
Read MoreJoe Calzaghe & Kristina Rihanoff – Paso Doble
The pre-series favourite sent the bookies laughing all the way to the bank in the first week. Paso however could be more his dance.Interesting belt there Joe! In Paso the man stands up straight with a slight curve outwards in the spine, Joe appears to be a little hunched over throughout. Will definitely lose marks…
