You are right Keefy. It looked as though they weren't sure how to finish the costume off. As for white frilly knickers? How many lions have you seen wearing white frilly knickers? :lol:
The make up was incredible though.

I could answer that foxy but you would have to red pen me if l did .....However, l've seen a few pussies wearing them in my time ( our daughter used to dress her Sylvanian cat family in them)

I have to say I generally don't like all this face painting stuff but as you say ìt was very tastefully done and on this occasion enhanced their performance.

With the exception of Danny l don't think there is much between Louise and Claudia so dress, music, and personality will all come into play should they both make it through too next week.....dare l say there's no more than a knicker elastic between them :thumbup:

Yep!....he stayed true to himself and got a lot further than most would have expected.....well done that man

I think Ore is going to be in need of some tissues next week as l can't see how he can avoid the dance off.

Great Chicago dance routine tonight. I always think the band and singers do a tremendous job, nothing seems to be beyond them. "All That Jazz " is a fantastic song anyway.
I think it's about time for Elaine Paige to hang up her microphone. Her singing did not sound good to me.
Does anybody else notice how Natalie always manages to get herself in screen shot? Lol!!!

I think the band, singers and back stage people should all come out and take a bow when the show finishes. The show would be nothing without any of them. They do a tremendous job :clap:

I was thinking the same - she is "getting past her sell by date"

I agree Elaine Paige is getting past her sing by date, but I thought she did well for an old bird :)

The obvious choice. And she would be a vast improvement on some of the acts I've seen onboard.

We've had Marti Webb a couple of times and she went down well so it's not impossible....

Prefer Marti to Elaine any time. It's her laugh that makes me cringe

I was a little disappointed with Louise's tango not that it wasn't good, it was just that her outfit seemed to distract from what was actually happening with her legs. The same couldn't be said about her dress choice for the Samba.....lovely pair of pins on which she gave a convincing performance but not so sure it was up there with that of her other dances.


I don't think there is a dance that Danny doesn't look good doing and his Salsa tonight was no exception. Can't remember what his second dance was but it was sensational.


I loved Miss Fragapinny's knicker colour choice tonight. Not sure what a good Rumba looks like but this routine must have been up there with the best....hope you didn't blink cos you would have missed what was a electrifying quick step which l hope will take her into the final.


Ore....had his foot hard down on the pedal tonight for what was a runaway performance.in the first round. Well just when you thought he was on his way out of the competition he ends up topping the leader board.

Well your guess is as good as mine as to who will be in the bottom two this week. But for my money and judged on tonight's performances l am going with Ore and Louise.....but l won't be staking any money on it.

So it will be Ore for the chop tomorrow.

I have a feeling that the dance off could be between the girls. I have cast my vote for Louise, she has always been consistent but I thought Claudia was under marked again.

Has the BBC wardrobe budget dried up? I am fairly sure Tess has worn that outfit before

One of her better outfits. Some of the stuff she wears is weird.
