Jimi Mistry & Flavia Cacace – Cha Cha Cha
One of my front runners based on the training videos, let’s see if he can live up to my expectations. Bit of a strange shirt choice, looks a little too big for Jimi and does nothing for his movement. He can certainly move but I’m not happy with his hands and I think his shoulders…
Read MorePaul Daniels & Ola Jordan – Cha Cha Cha
Out of the starting line-up for tonight I’m afraid Paul has me the most worried, I’m hoping he can prove me wrong, but I doubt it… Quote of the night – Emma “Ah, he’s not doing awfully”. I must admit it’s no John Sergeant and for 72 he’s definitely not putting on a bad show. …
Read MoreMatt Baker & Aliona Vilani – Cha Cha Cha
Matt’s gymnastic history should give him a distinct advantage, and his training video looked very promising. Oh and there’s the gymnastics already making an appearance, shame he’s not as steady on his feet when crouching before Aliona! Nice hip action though. For me the hands are a little too ‘flung out’ though there’s some nice…
Read MoreGoldie & Kristina Rihanoff – Cha Cha Cha
Goldie spent a lot of time in training playing around, now’s the time to see whether he’s taken things a bit more seriously for the live show. Not a bad use of hips at the start, and though it’s not really a Cha Cha I kinda like it. A bit too Disco all round though…
Read MoreFelicity Kendal & Vincent Simone – Cha Cha Cha
Felicity was struggling in training with wearing high heels, and they did appear to be particularly high in the vids, but I’m hoping she’s got past that. Felicity is definitely more flexible than I was first expecting, but there’s an awful lot of time wasting at the start and she does look a little uncomfortable. …
Read MoreRicky Whittle & Natalie Lowe – Cha Cha Cha
I wasn’t a big fan of their Cha Cha the first time round, though the judges seemed to really like it. Let’s see if Ricky can change my mind. Some of Ricky’s forward locks are really good, and then some appear to have no hip action whatsoever, and he does need to look at those…
Read MoreRicky Whittle & Natalie Lowe – Cha Cha Cha
Not quite sure on the pants in the training Ricky… Seems to be dancing more with his upper body than his hips early on and I do wish he’d do something with his free hand when it’s not in use. I don’t feel like there’s as much choreography as I’d be expecting from these two…
Read MoreWe're famous!
Well the BBC have finally uploaded one solitary picture of us from the ‘Come Dancing With Strictly’ event in Blackpool! Not the best photo they took of us during the day so i’m sure there’ll be more…maybe. For more photos from Blackpool visit the BBC website.
Read MoreAli Bastian & Brian Fortuna – Cha Cha
A perfect dance last week, sadly I don’t think they’ll perform quite as well this week – Ali hasn’t performed well in the fast Latin dances so far.The fringing is hiding the inadequacies in her hip action, and an obvious mistake in the middle. Didn’t really float my boat, but then pretty much what I…
Read MoreThe moment of truth, dance off, and result
Who stays, and who has to dance again? Well done Ian for getting through! So Phil gets public support, how about CK? Out of those bottom 3 (Laila, Ricky Groves, Craig) I think Laila will be through… Sorry CK but I think your time is definitely up now! Good to see Ricky gets the arms…
