Ann Widdecombe & Anton Du Beke – Tango
I’m hoping Ann isn’t wearing a skirt this week if she’s going to be flying through the studio! Not sure about the arm waving Ann, not quite Tango…but I’m sure that’s not what we were going for. Ann is skipping at times, Anton probably should take slightly smaller steps to help her out. Give her…
Read MoreFirst Flavia & Vincent, now Ann & Anton are going to fly in their Tango
To try and give their routine a bit more pizazz, Ann and Anton have decided to go all Peter Pan and hopefully sprinkle some magic fairy dust on the judges…especially Craig I imagine. Anton felt that they needed to have something “outrageous” in their routine to try and win over the judges, and hopefully encourage…
Read MoreAnn Widdecombe & Anton Du Beke – Waltz
Most people have put Ann & Anton in the comedy act pile and I think the height difference is definitely going to be an issue. Interesting to see Ann wearing what appear to be practice shoes with laces, should give her a bit more stability. Ann needs to keep her head up, and her feet…
Read MoreStrictly Come Dancing Training Clips – Wk 2
It’s the end of week 2 of training and all Strictly Come Dancing training clips have been released by the BBC. The first clip of the week goes to Gavin Henson & Katya Virshilas, Gavin didn’t impress me much in the launch show, I’m hoping Katya will have worked some magic though. Lucky he’s been…

Read MoreLaila Rouass & Anton du Beke – Salsa
They’ve not impressed in the Latin so far this series, the training looks good but can they ‘bring it’ on the night? Why Laila, why always the mistakes? Especially when you’re apart from Anton it just makes it so obvious. Emma asked me yesterday my prediction for who was going out tonight, I predicted Laila…
Read MoreLaila Rouass & Anton du Beke – American Smooth
I was really enjoying the start, up until the slip in the spin. She really does have to watch those shoulders too. The dance does look like Anton is throwing her round quite a lot, and I don’t just mean in the lifts! Started with lots of promise but I don’t think it delivered and…
Read MoreLeaderboard
Well it appears I was the only one entertained enough by Laila and Anton, and I’d have had Natalie a little closer to Ricky, but otherwise the leaderboard is about right… 1. 37 points – Ali & Brian2. 34 points – Chris & Ola3. 31 points – Ricky & Natalie4. 31 points – Laila &…
Read MoreLaila Rouass & Anton du Beke – Charlston
Well a dance that requires a major dose of character, shouldn’t be a problem for Anton! A great story and performance and the most enjoyable Charlston of the night, seeing as I’ve given an 8 and 9 I’ll have to give this a 10!!!
Read MoreThe moment of truth, dance off, and result
Will my prediction of a Laila and Ricky dance off pan out? Bottom three as expected, now who have the public gone for? Yep Natalie & Vincent are saved by the audience, and Laila and Ricky are in the dance-off. More importantly it’s Erin versus Anton! If Ricky can perform without making any mistakes then…
