So to Wednesday's ITT.
Laila - feisty fight back to the judges! That won't go down particularly well, especially as she is facing Latin again at Blackpool. So what happened to the much-hyped "this dance could be the highest scoring ballroom ever on SCD"? then - no real explanation of where the missing wow factor went off to hide.
If it wasn't there in the Viennese Waltz it sure ain't going to be there to be there in a weak, poorly choreographed paso to Layla! If the accoustic version didn't work for an AS last year (James and Cherie), I cannot see it working for a paso for a celeb who does not appear to really have that much musicality, or to really be confident with finding the beat at the best of times.
Len's half-term report (oh god there is an end in sight to this series then!) - be thankful for small mercies, we haven't had Ask Len this year (so far). Oh look who is top of the class then this year so far - Ali! That is going to be good for the public vote then.....Glad to see Jade getting some recognition though - please let that girl be a real contender! But here he goes with his classic hyperbole - A+ and a gold star to Ricky Whittle...but will the public agree?
Hilary Alexander - at last a fashionista I not only warm to, but absolutely love. Give this woman a show of her own - surely she could be a warmer, wittier Trinny and Susannah?
Have to admit, I would kill for Laila's paso dress (shame about the dance, miaow). Why oh why wasn't she partnered with Matt Cutler? They would have made a stunning couple, and he would have choreographed some ace routines for her, both latin and ballroom. What a waste of a potential semi-finalist! The divine Mr C could have pulled of a Carmen-themed paso that would have knocked everyone for six, and claimed a whole raft of 10s.
Jade's jive dress is a brave departure. For a "tall girl" facing her nemesis at Blackpool, she is sure going all out to prove their is nowhere to hide. Good on her, because if anyone call pull of bold, then Jade can. I am slightly concerned about her this week, because I think the public will give Craig a free pass again, will be coming out to vote for Ali in belated sympathy after inflicting an unjustified dance off on a bleeding foot on her, and so someone will be suffering...
Lady Gaga goes to Blackpool - well I hope Natalie's dress lives up to its billing, and I also hope that the quickstep is not a Lady Gaga inspired choreo from Vincent...
Poor Flavia - she does look so bemused at still being in the competition, and at Craig in general - I know how she feels! At least John Sergeant and Kenny Logan relished their judge-baiting roles and played up their personalities to the max - whereas Craig is just so bewildering. Who is voting for him? Please stop feeding the delusion, stop putting him through this misery, and let him go back to something he can succeed in. He has only been married for 6 or 7 weeks, he needs to be spending more time with his bride.
