Stephanie2008 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I love Strictly Come Dancing Everyone looked so nervous. The only one who was half good in my opinion was Ali, although I really love Lynda and hope she does well (or at least gets better ). Well done to them all though, I wouldn't be able to do it!

catwoman Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 In the group dance the guy from Hollyoaks looked amazing!!! and his dancing was good too . I love it when Brian talks i love his american accent, reminds me of my OH . I was really dissapointed with Kystina and Joe. I was expecting more from him. But I am looking forward to the Latins. I was a little worried I was not going to like it as much as I was not sure on many of the celebs but for me this years the celebs are the dancers.

amethyst Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Poor Joe! He was so stiff it was hilarious! I don't normally watch this programme but I was over my mums and we caught the end of it. I don't think Joe will have much problem staying in, the Welsh will all vote for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimmy619 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I always laugh when the celebs dance the tango. They confuse the facial expression for 'passionate' with 'angry' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesilbeach Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Lovely to have Strictly back but apart from Ali & Brian, I wasn't too impressed, although apart from Joe & Kristina, they weren't awful. Most of the problem seemed to be the song choices, which I thought were mostly awful! Looking forward to the latin round tonight - hoping for a bit more excitement and fun with Cha Cha Cha's. I love Alesha, but I'm going to reserve judgement on her judging ability - you can only say how nervous they all must be so many times - I hope she maybe judges more the music choice and the entertainment factor in the dances tonight. I'm not a particular fan of Arlene, so I'm not bothered she's gone, but my choice would have been to make Karen Hardy the fourth judge since she's not dancing anymore, and she's a professional judge anyway. Group dance was hilarious. When they circled round and the boys lifted the girls, the legs were all over the place, and then in the middle it was more like a group fight when they had to find their partners! Don't think Lilia or Brendan will be winning again this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimmy619 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I don't like Karen Hardy for some reason, I'm not really sure why. I definately think that they should have replaced Arlene with a professional dancer who knows what s/he is talking about. I like Alesha, but I don't think that she is judge material.

Stephanie2008 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Yeah I agree. I like Alesha but I don't think she should be judging. I would have liked Karen to do it I'm hoping the latin dances will be a bit more interesting than the ballroom. I got a bit bored last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimmy619 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Usually, the celebs struggle with the latin stuff. I remember Gary Rhodes, his latin made me cringe *shudders* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie2008 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Yeah I remember that. I dread to think what Joe will be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimmy619 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I think that Joe will be in for a few weeks. Even if he isn't very good, his popularity will get him through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie2008 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Am I the only person that doesn't like Joe? I'm not a big fan of boxing so didn't really know him beforehand, but watching his interview and training didn't make me like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amethyst Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I have to like him, I'm welsh, haha!! I really don't understand the music choices, I was expecting some spanish "Buena Vista Social Club" type music tonight. Is it normally so random?

catwoman Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I was shocked that Martina went home!!! I thought they were better in the dance off and I like Rav (Well Rav's chest!) Put in spoilers for people who missed it tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mia Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 (edited) I really don't know why I watch this show, cos I get so annoyed at the unfairness of it all! The two worst dancers who should have been in the dance-off were Lynda and Joe. So who do we get? Martina and Rav! And then Martina gets the boot! I really think Martina had a lot of potential for improvement, but of course now she won't have the chance because the public vote through dancers on the sympathy vote. Lynda and Joe are obviously this year's John Sergeant. Am I the only person that doesn't like Joe? I'm not a big fan of boxing so didn't really know him beforehand, but watching his interview and training didn't make me like him. No, you're not! I didn't know him either, and didn't warm to him. He's like a block of wood. The judges seem scared to criticise him in case he hits them! I really don't understand the music choices, I was expecting some spanish "Buena Vista Social Club" type music tonight. Is it normally so random? Yes. You get some really strange music choices sometimes. And the godawful "singers" often murder your favourite songs. Well, after all that ranting I have to say that I did enjoy Strictly (believe it or not)! The best dancers were Ali and Jade. Jade's cha cha was really good, she had the hip action going (whereas most people's hips never moved at all *Lynda*). Ali was very elegant and did her dances well. I have to say that I don't think Alesha is judge material. She hasn't got the insight into technique to give a lot of constructive criticism like Arlene did. I like her as a person, and was glad she won when she was dancing, but she doesn't have the knowledge to judge others. Was it my imagination, or was Len completely ignoring her? I liked Craig's quote "I've got two words: rigor mortis"! Also Brucie's comment about Ola's "costume" - "That's my favourite outfit you're almost in"!

I agree I hated the whole JOn fiasco last year I really don't want that again. I agree with both of you about Joe, I felt like he could not be bothered. I think I yawned through both Linda's and Joe's. I noticed Brendan had his hands on his hips, more than likely thinking "Here we go again" .

Ernie Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 If Rav's partner is the best out of the 3 new girl dancers (and she clearly is) , then I can understand the judges dilemma. I thought Martina would stay to the end though. Joe is clearly out of his comfort zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruth Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Never watched an episode in my life, but we had a friend over on Saturday who wanted to watch it. Rav Wilding is in it!! Suddenly, I'm interested:) Got to say though, I don't think much of Alesha Dixon as a judge - she's a nice girl, but clearly doesn't really know what she's talking about (and I don't even have Arlene to compare her to, since I never watched it when Arlene was in).

Ophelia Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Feeling a bit sorry for Alesha. She seems a nice girl but out of her depth as a judge, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
