Strictly Come Dancing 2018

[Sprocket.]

If only all YouTube stars were so nice and well mannered

I thought it was a nice gesture from Joe, going around thanking all the professional dancers who helped his performance.

I see Claudia and Tess came as quality street this week.

Stacey was fucking awesome! Pretty good hips and so confident in all those lifts even if she did splat a bit on landing.

Am I in an alternative universe? Graeme was ad-or-a-ble. Ok, a lot of the dance was just walking with style but he nailed it.

Craig has done his transition from holding back some of the criticism to full disclosure. He had a point, Graeme was a good chorus member not a lead character.

Kate’s dress was so unflattering, particularly at the back where you could tell the difference between the tight bit to hold the dress up and the rest above. Dance was a bit dull.

Charles was pretty good. Always a risk to dance alongside real dancers doing the same moves though, they definitely were better at the whole undulation thing, although they were that skinny muscly type so a different body shape.

Anyone else sick of Bruno now? I quite hope they replace him with Alfonso, there was a definite whiff of possibility there when he was standing in for him.

I quite hope they replace him with Alfonso

Oh please no.

I can't stand Bruno. I found myself shouting 'just stay sat ya prick' last night.
Another vote for alfonso.

Thought Lauren was undermarked a bit, but I think it's her and Kate in the dance off tonight/yesterday

 

[Mrs Miggins]

I can't make up my mind about Bruno. Sometimes I think oh FFS stop it but other times I like his enthusiasm.

I notice he makes Shirley cower

Not too harsh

I'm a great fan of Bruno, it'd be nice to have him round for dinner. Wouldn't use best plates or glasses, mind

Did anyone else do that?

 

[colacubes]

Did anyone else do that?

I’m pretty sure Stacey did. Didn’t notice anyone else but I wasn’t paying massive attention to it tbf.

 

[Saffy]

Yeah Stacey did I think.

 

[Sprocket.]

Yes Stacey with slightly less percipience. What struck me was Joe a young man having the decency to show his gratitude. Not something I see much of these days.
Stacey obviously has manners too.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

This Take That number is a bit odd no?

 

[colacubes]

It was really odd!

No surprises re dance off. It was always going to be 2 of Graeme, Kate or Lauren. Hopefully Kate to go as I find her a bit dull.

 

[Sprocket.]

This Take That number is a bit odd no?

I thought they were miming.
Very odd.

 

[colacubes]

They sorted out the fit on Kate’s dress between the shows

 

[colacubes]

Good decision

 

[Mrs Miggins]

I would prefer Kate to go but I suspect it will be Graeme going by the judges comments last night.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

He's doing it loads better tonight though

 

[Mrs Miggins]

They sorted out the fit on Kate’s dress between the shows

No they haven't!

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Yeasssssss!!!!!!!
Right decision.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

I love Tess's dress

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Cor I'm a bit choked at Kate's leaving speech

 

[colacubes]

No they haven't!

It was better than yesterday!

 

[Mrs Miggins]

It was better than yesterday!

Still too tight though!

 

[QueenOfGoths]

The right decision but I really like Kate she's like the jolly hockey sticks girl me and my classmates all aspired to be at age fifteen (all girls grammer!)

I also think Joe is great, I was reticent at first thinking "Yeah right, vlogger, wtf! " but I think his enjoyment of it and the seriousness with which he approaches it is brilliant.

 

[May Kasahara]

Fantastic pro dance tonight, I thought.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Fantastic pro dance tonight, I thought.

Yes - I don't usually pay them much attention but this one grabbed me.

 

[Guineveretoo]

Fantastic pro dance tonight, I thought.

I found it gripping! I was trying to eat my dinner, but just had to wait until it finished.
