I enjoyed the programme last night, thought the standard was really good!

DH is cooking our evening meal to fit in with sitting down at 6.10 ready for the 'off'  ;D

We have been watching some of the Rugby since it began but the crowd is too noisy for me  ::).  Dancing is peaceful  ;)

We can't record anything …….. there is usually catch up but even then  ::) - Strictly is for the 'now' ……..

I was quite surprised at how well Peter did. But it's very early days.

Len Goodman has been sitting in on Radio2 for Paul O'Grady and mentioned the 'good dancing' over the weekend; he didn't need to but he seemed genuinely surprised at the standard.

Zoe is on 2-morrow evening  ;)

Only just caught up on I player - Jay and Aliona, just wow!

I agree.  Week 1 he was shivering from head to toe ……… now he seems to have got a grasp of what is required and Aliona is a really good teacher.  I admire the Professionals, they have to judge a person's personality who has little or no dancing experience; pick appropriate steps to both music and Celebrity and go out in front of the public after a week! 

 :medal:

I was behind Peter Andre and Anita until last night  ::)

Totally agree they were amazing.Coming from a boy band he seems very quiet.

I Was also amazed at how good Jay was on just his third week.  Then I googled him (mainly because I didn't even know who The Wanted band were!!  ;D and discovered that he has six years dance school training under his belt!   No wonder he was so good and made such rapid progress.

I know every year there is this talk about "well so and so has danced on pop videos or so and so did ballet as a child." But SIX years dance training is something else!  How can you compare him with people like Anthony and Jeremy who have no experience whatsoever.  :-\

Explains things then, but still think he's good.

Aahhh …….. same as the actress from 'Call the Midwife' - she's had ballet training  ::)

You can tell with both of them.......a bit unfair on the others. :-\

I think a bit of ballet training as a child is quite different to six years at dance school. 
Most little girls (except me!  ;D) have done a little bit of ballet.

Did anyone wonder how Gleb could be talking to Claudia then immediately be dancing, out of make-up, to the guest singer [whose name I'd never heard of  ::) ] ?  We know that it's all filmed on Sat. night, but the Editor was sloppy in allowing such a slip! and who went out  :-\ - I can't remember ……..
