Joe Calzaghe & Kristina Rihanoff – Foxtrot
Joe has been consistently stuck to the bottom of the leaderboard, and I don’t expect things to change tonight I’m afraid and I still think he’ll struggle to achieve 5’s. Looks good in a tux though, and this is one of my favourite songs (albeit the Muse version!) Wooden start with the clicking, and needs…
Read MoreTraining updates – Salsa and Foxtrot
In advance of tonights show I’ve looked at the training updates and my comments and predictions follow. The contestants have been allocated either a sultry Salsa, or the elegant Foxtrot. Salsa normally involves fast complicated moves with lots of hip movement, whilst the Foxtrot is a slow elegant dance that should float across the floor.…

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 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…

Personally wouldn’t have scored it as high as that, felt there were a few frame issues but no matter, the leaderboard is about right.… Chris Hollins showing that he really does have some surprising potential, Joe unfortunately not so much and Ricky is still entertaining. Lynda giving it her all!

Well done Ian (still not biased!) Joe’s through, unlucky for the bottom two couples I don’t think they deserve to be there.Bottom two therefore are: Rav Wilding and Aliona VilaniMartina Hingis and Matthew Cutler Based on Latin performances I think Rav will be going out i’m afraid.

Hmm…Joe Calzaghe and Cha Cha… Could be good personality-wise but I need to see some hips to be convinced!… Need to loosen up Joe and weight over the balls of your feet. Don’t throw the arm back in the New Yorks. I’m afraid there aren’t many hip actions being shown here and I think this…
