Bobby - Quickstep - Shirley's OTT carrying on was embarrassing, but I did like it and thought it was a pretty impressive improvement.
Paso - Just comically bad. I was possibly the most shocked I've ever been by everyone other than Craig saying it was great. And even Craig overscored it. I suppose it was probably the best that could be expected given his build though. But that Paso face was unforgivable from an actor. Even Annabel did better! I'm mad they wasted a good Paso song on him too.
Annabel - Salsa - It could've been worse. But it was pretty bad. She recovered from the mistake pretty well though.
Viennese Waltz - I can't even remember it already so
But even though I think she's the one who deserves to go the most I still thought she probably should have had a few more points for it. Judges saying one thing then scoring completely to the contrary again.
OK I watched it again and actually it's ridiculous she scored the same as last week when it was definitely better. She did the finger placement on his arm properly this time, and last week there was a footwork mistake but not this week. It's obvious she doesn't really belong in the semi-final but the judges don't have to be such dicks about it. I really hate it when they overscore people then bring them crashing down. It wasn't fair on Angela R either. And they didn't do it to Bobby, when he should've had 7s and 8s at best for his shapeless, stompy Paso.
Ellie - Cha Cha - Really loved it! Probably one of my favourites ever, as Cha Chas are usually pretty forgettable. Thought she might've been slightly undermarked, but then again there were a couple of little wobbles.
CC - Didn't love it, but liked it. Anything's better than street dance. And Vito in pleather and guyliner was
Layton - Rumba - I thought it was good but a little boring, as most rumbas are tbf. Liked it better than John and JoJo's at least, which I've always thought was overrated. I probably would've liked it more without the hideous grey pyjamas.
Charleston - Wasn't my favourite one ever, Rhys and Nancy's probably is, but I liked it better than most Charlestons. I didn't like the chair bit. I was a little surprised by Craig's reaction, but not complaining I guess. Aww, Nikita getting all choked up... he's such a sweetheart!
I'll probably like both their dances more after I watch them again, as the first impression was tainted by worrying he could be out if he made a mistake.
Noticed poor Katya was very teary the whole night. Don't blame her, it must be really hard to stand there and cheer for everyone else knowing she and Nigel belong in the Final, and could've won.
Every time I start to get excited for Ellie to win Vito has to open his big fat mouth and tell the Never Danced Before lie again. I'm begging you, shut the duck up.

Thank duck the pity/outrage votes for Annabel weren't enough to get her ahead of Ellie and put Layton in the dance-off, I'd have been raging! I'm so happy for them and can't wait to see their faces when they get through! I hope they call them first since they were the last in the dance-off.
Last week I would have said Annabel was better than Bobby, but he has improved this week and he's got better and more varied dances to redo. Just hope he doesn't redo the CC, but if he does Annabel probably would have as well so it's not like it makes any difference.
I do hope Dianne comes to terms with the fact that they're not going to win by next week. If she doesn't I couldn't even make fun of her, just worry for her mental health.
Still not over Nigel not being in the Final. Or Angela S, If only Bobby had done his damn CC earlier, he might've gone that week instead of Angela.

about the botched lift, and it felt just like being on Tattle

Pasha! Love this one but my ultimate Charleston that hasn’t come close to being knocked off the top spot is Caroline and Pasha’s (just in case anyone wants a gander):
I hope if there is something she has lots of fun. She’s so young and deserves some fun after having her heart broken.
