Strictly Live Show Week 8 - 20th November 2010
Post categories: Live Show
| 18:15 UK time, Saturday, 20 November 2010
Tonight Strictly comes to you live from the fabulous Tower Ballroom in Blackpool. Our celebrities have been in training all week to perform one of two dance styles - an American Smooth or a Samba - to impressÌýthe judges, Blackpool, and, of course, you!
Will dancing in such an iconic venue inspire our couples toÌýup their game? Who will make Blackpool rock and who will fail to make a splash?
If you're watching the show, why not let us know what you thinkÌýabout all of tonight's action by leaving a comment below. Ìý

My main hope for tonight will be that the Blackpool crowd are more discerning regarding A2 than the regular audience and give it the reception it deserves (however it goes - it could surprise us all and be brilliant.......) rather than the hideously overblown rapture that it gets normally...

Started well but lost it a bit in the middle I think. I still feel that Patsy needs to pick her feet up more. But I think it is her best to date.
