Strictly Result

[vernonk]

Please someone!

[hc4361]

Too early. Be patient

[fiction-factory]

Bit early I think but why not use the same link as last week and other weeks on Digital Spy- you'll find it first on there, although AB may not be far behind.

[hc4361]

Digital Spy gets clogged up and takes an age to load at the critical time, everybody refreshing the page

Tamika v Laura

Tamika out

Blerdy shame

[hc4361]

Sorry


Laura out!

[hc4361]

Sorry again!

Tameka is out!

[hc4361]

It is confirmed that Tameka is out. I thought she was a good sport, great fun and had rhythm and potential.

[tonyav]

Yeah a shame that, I thought she was a good sport to.

[Buenchico]

I can never understand why the people who ask the same question every week don't simply bookmark this link!

[hc4361]

Because, Buenchico, we like to discuss it here and we can't unless there it is clear the thread is a spoiler.

[hc4361]

I could really see her improving over the weeks :(

[tonyav]

Doubt if there would have ever been any lifts involved in any of Tameka's dance routines though.

[hc4361]

Lesley Joseph was the biggest surprise of the night for me.
Ed Balls gave me the most laughs.
Ore performed the best dance.

[tonyav]

I thought that they all did well tonight.

Laura in the dance off isn't she one of the good ones ?? I LOVE Ed Balls, he put his heart and soul into it.

[hc4361]

Laura - good dancer, no personality

[hereIam]

Because she's not over the top like Tameka ??

[hc4361]

You don't have to be over the top to have personality. Claudia Fragapane has buckets of personality, so has Ore. Neither are in your face.

[hereIam]

Neither do you have to have bucketloads of personality. Laura is quieter and that's just the way she is. It's about dancing initially and she can certainly dance.

[hc4361]

You know very well that Strictly is as much of a personality contest than a dance contest, and always has been.
Also, if the contestant is well known, popular and a great dancer many people won't vote for him because they assume he is safe from the dance off.

A lot of viewers also champion the non-dancers who have to struggle to get through the routine and don't like those with dance experience - they think they are 'ringers'.

I assume Tameka was in the dance off because a lot of people assumed she was 'safe' and didn't vote. It could well be Naga off next week because viewers haven't taken to her.
