Michelle Williams & Ian Waite (in place of Brendan) – Tango
Craig was quoted this week as saying that he thinks Ian may prove to be a better partner for Michelle than Brendan for the Tango. Michelle is definitely looking miles better than she has so far in this competition, 10 seconds in it’s already her best dance. Still a little shaky and awkward at times…
Read MoreStrictly Come Dancing launch show
Strictly’s back, we’re back, everyone’s back…well except for a few of our favourite professionals. What do I think of this year’s lineup? Quite a good lineup even if the average age is apparently now 45. There’s a few people (as usual) that I have no idea who they are but there does appear to be…

Read MoreStrictly Posh Dancing?
So a new series of Strictly Come Dancing is fast approaching and talk turns to who could be taking part this year. Last year’s show was a bit of a letdown for some in terms of the celebrities selected and the BBC want to make amends this year. According to The Sun Strictly are lining…
Read MoreJade Johnson & Ian Waite Tango
After seeing that there’s no doubt that Jade was an incredibly strong contender for this title. My old teacher Mary (Ian’s step-mum) choreographed this dance and was gutted when they couldn’t perform it on the night. I feel so sorry for Ian as this was probably his best chance for making it to the final,…
Read MoreSaturday night and Brucie's back in business
Unfortunately Jade has had to pull out of the competition.Such a shame as they really looked like they had potential together. Oh well, that makes the final a two (rather than three) couple affair. Let’s see how everyone else performs tonight, and whether Laila has fully recovered.
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…
Read MoreProfessional's Viennese Waltz
The group Viennese Waltz was choreographed by Ian Waite – apparently the chandeliers are in completely different positions from where he was originally told!Looks like the pro’s have managed to cope though.
Read MoreJade Johnson & Ian Waite – Jive
Whilst Ian’s certainly never had a problem performing a Jive (considering his height), Jade may find she struggles with the speed of movement required. Looks to be a slightly flat beginning, but it’s good to see her toes pointing down during the flicks. Maybe I spoke too soon, when they’re in their Lindyhop section her…
