Strictly Come Dancing 2012 – Week 2

Great weekend of teaching in Bournemouth, thanks to Hotel Piccadilly for asking us to host.  Unfortunately our plan to watch the show via iplayer on Saturday night didn’t work as the show was still ‘coming soon’ at 12.30am Sunday morning, so everyone went to bed instead. Sat down on Sunday night to watch when we…

Anita Dobson & Robin Windsor – Salsa

A bit of a stumble but they’re quick to get back into routine, though Anita’s confidence looks to have been knocked. It’s a real shame as they started really well but some of the later sequences just seem to have lost the fire. A cheeky performance but lost it halfway, just a 6 from me.…

Rory Bremner & Erin Boag – Salsa

A bit out of time at the start but a great smile. Needs to stand up straighter and I feel there are points when Rory’s just standing around waiting for his turn. Salsa is a very difficult dance though, and along with the Foxtrot, I think they’re both too early in the competition. A good…
