I couldn't believe the results of this week's competition. Daylight robbery. There were at least three/four couples worse than either of the two in the dance-off. I'm seriously thinking of not watching again. I knew the result on Sunday morning having gone on the web to find out. Gabby and partner were on breakfast this morning and were philosophical about the whole thing. It's Alyesha for me now but I'm not telling anybody.

Well, can't say I disagree with the result this week. The dancing goblin has gone. Thought he was rather unpleasant to Lilia and that lost him the public support. I know it's edited but he has been saying some ungracious things and seems to think he knows better than his professional! Anyway, to be fair, Kate the Fake was a lot better this week and IMO wasn't the worst. What was Kenny Logan doing in that Kilt?? I agree that Aleesia (sp?) is by far the best and seems very sweet.

Glad to see him gone..agree with how unpleasant he has been..shame because I quite liked him before. Lilia has family problems so will probably leave anyway..so I have been reading over on DS. Kenny Logan looked ridiculous in the kilt..what has that got to do with the pasa doble (sp). We were quite suprised how much better Kate was..had to laugh at Anton saying he would love a mark of 20 let alone 30...he is wonderful.

He seemed completely out o' sorts this week. Probably because he had to play against type. I never did rate him so - glad he's gone. She was indeed. I was completely gob smacked by how much better she was. Kenny's a Scot, they can't help it. I agree that Aleesia (sp?) is by far the best and seems very sweet. I think it's Aylesha. I can't believe she's had no dance training. She's a natural.

Did you watch the actual dance off in yesterday's programme? Was it my imagination or was the body language between Lilia and the Dancing Goblin very frosty? Normally there are lots of hugs and kisses but she seemed to refuse to give him eye contact and held him at arms length.
I rather like Gethin.

Even though we knew the result we both still love the show & watch Sundays....I noticed that as well Topcat & said so to Hub..there was definately no eye contact. He is a very ungracious loser & reckons its all a fix in todays paper.
I think Gethin is gorgeous & loved the wink.

I think Gethin is gorgeous & loved the wink. He is a rather nice young man and a cut above the one from EE who is rapidly getting on my pip. Sorry I got the spelling of Alesha's name wrong. On the DSF the least favourite couple is Kelly and Brendan - can't think why?

I watched ITT last night and Dom was doing a lot of damage limitation. Lilia sat at distance!
BTW What on earth has happened to the female singer??? In previous seasons, all the singers have been excellent. This year, it's painful on the ears. She can barely hold a tune.

Who's for the push this week? I reckon Barnsy's in with a chance, he's been in the dance-off a couple of times already. Kenny, though I think he'll get Gabby's friends votes from now on. Kate? a lot will depend on the dances I think.

When they did the Beatles tune this week, I was praying she would be doing it just so that I could hear her sing 'what would you do if I sang out of key.....' I think Kenny should go but I think he has now taken Kate's place as the public's hopeless case. Kate might go just because she's actually not that bad anymore. Oh the workings of the British public's minds

Just seen this in the online Sun from a couple of days ago... Lilia: Dominic is so dumb Published: 06 Nov 2007 DOMINIC Littlewood’s partner Lilia Kopylova stormed off Strictly Come Dancing because she blamed him for their early exit, we can reveal. The One Show’s Dom, 42, blasted judges for giving him a low mark. Lilia, 28, thinks his stroppiness turned off viewers – and led the judges to choose John Barnes to stay after their dance-off. Russian beauty Lilia was further enraged when Dom tried cheer her up by GROPING her bottom and pretending to undo her bra on the show. An insider said: “Dom was really chippy with the judges and had a go at them for not giving him and Lilia a better score. “He came across as a bad sport. She ignored Dom in the bar afterwards and hasn’t spoken to him since. She is steaming.” Fan forums were yesterday flooded with complaints about Dom’s “sexual harassment” of his dance partner. I am really off him now..horrid little man

Catching up after a little relaxation by the Red Sea Yes, I was surprised Penny went so soon and I also like Ian. His best chance to win was with Zoe Ball a few series ago. Is it correct that Ms Garraway has finally gone? Let me guess. She danced better and the judges were kind? The final has to be Gethin and Aleesha now. I want to slap Kelly Brook very hard......

Talking of Anton, apparently his original partner dropped out and Kate Garraway was a late replacement. His original partner? Debra Stephenson. Don't get me wrong, I love SCD and it is for charity and it does get, for the most part, proper celebrities but Debra seems to just do anything to be on TV. She was on celebrity Stars in Their Eyes twice. She did celebrity Fame Academy. She tried to make a 'pop' career whilst in Coro, appearing almost daily on the various chat shows 'singing'. Then there were her 'exercise videos'. She now turns up on breakfast TV as a 'tv reviewer'. I am amazed she's not been in 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here' so that she can 'entertain' the camp with her impressions . To be honest, I would much rather Mandana not be on TV at all than to see her tout herself about like some performers do.
