"It's not just dance....

...you have got to get out there and entertain, that is what dancers do".

Never a true word, spoken by Ricky Groves.

Loved both Erin and Ricky on last night's ITT. Erin seems to much more laid back this series, and her sense of humour is coming across well. Ricky is taking it much more seriously than the "clown" persona would have us believe, and last night came across as very astute and analytical. I liked the glasses as well!

The next segment was the return of shouty salsa man and his partner, and I rather liked him in commentating rather than teaching mode. Lots of good information (I hope he is wrong about Chris!), and really looking forward to seeing Brian and Ali's salsa. Maybe a proper salsa for once on Strictly - and could it be the first 10 of the series?

Bit perplexed about why Laila and Anton are doing foxtrot though... a salsa would surely have seen them near the bottom of the leaderboard, and a tail off in public voting would have seen an end to the whole debate that has been raging all week. I can see why the powers that be want more lively upbeat salsas in the show than elegant foxtrots, but Natalie and Vincent could have done foxtrot instead of salsa, and Laila and Anton the reverse. It's all a conspiracy I tell you!
