Gavin Henson & Katya Virshilas – Waltz
Gavin should perform better at Ballroom than Latin and the beginning (albeit looking like he’s trying to break Katya’s neck) looks calm and controlled. However Katya is right, there isn’t much emotion showing, though it’s good to see him smiling throughout. A sweet performance that I’m struggling to mark, not quite a 7 but a…
Read MorePeter Shilton & Erin Boag – Waltz
Peter needed to work more on his shoulder line in training so I’m hoping Erin has drilled it into him. Peter needs to keep his bum in, and try to keep his feet in contact with the floor when he opens to promenade – seems to have a tendency to life his foot quite high…
Read MorePamela Stephenson & James Jordan – Waltz
I was very impressed with Pamela in the launch show and I’m expecting great things tonight. Emma likes the dress, and apparently grey’s a good colour on James…I don’t know, I’m just looking at the dancing! Impressive to see them starting the movement out of hold, and Pamela looks good. I think her chin’s just…
Read MorePatsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – Waltz
So our first chance to see what one of the new boys can achieve in the show, training looked promising so let’s see what they can produce. Liking the lighting options, and song choice. Girls always have it better dancing Ballroom with a pro dancer and straight away this looks better than Scott’s, though Patsy’s…
Read MoreScott Maslen & Natalie Lowe – Waltz
We might not be able to see it, but Scott has purportedly got a two-tone nether region, thanks to a spray-tan g-string malfunction. Let’s hope it doesn’t affect his Waltz abilities too much! The start looks a little wooden in terms of the interaction between them – Scott’s doing the actions but I don’t feel…
Read MoreRicky Whittle & Natalie Lowe – Waltz
Personally for me Ricky’s Ballroom has always been let down by his strange head positioning during pivots and spins, something he’s done since his first dance in week 2 and has never been mentioned. That opening looked like a lift but I think they’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. Straight away though and…
Read MoreChris Hollins & Ola Jordan – Waltz
A dance that needs elegance and romance, and I think Chris has what it takes to pull off a good one, but let’s see what happens. I’m not personally happy with his head position, it’s stretched a little oddly but the dance is looking good aside from that, although he really does need to incorporate…
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…
Read MoreLaila Rouass & Anton du Beke – Waltz
Will Laila have recovered from her injury enough to cope with the demands of the rise and fall in the Waltz? Just needs to make sure she keeps her core strong as still looks a little loose at times. Shame about the glaring mistake at the end though, I don’t think there’s any dances this…
Read MoreCraig Kelly & Flavia Cacace – Waltz
Craig is hoping to make it to Blackpool next week, but has thus far not managed to impress the judges with his attempts – will the Waltz be any better?Craig’s frame is vastly improved on his previous attempts at ballroom, and actually is one of the best frames I’ve seen from any of the celebrity…
