So looking forward for tonight! not only do we get to see our fav couples dance, but then again in the swingathon!!!! kara looks stunning and she best get good scores! been undermarked for far too long!

All looking god for tonight. Should be a semi final to remember.

Woof everyone. *waves paw at Strictly Paul* I'm a bit achy from work this week, especially my bad paw, so won't be dancing along.

Hi everyone really looking forward to the show tonite, been away all week - so I've not see ITT, anything good happen??

What's happened to your paw Dfer - slipped on the ice ??

Looking forward to it.... Hope Matt finally gets the marks he deserves!!

Got to be good....no Ann Widdecombe.

with you there strictlyastrictlygirl - he has been consistently been undermarked

Hi all,

Git it Sky Plused I have got some assignment work to do duty calls when your a level 6 student like me so I can fast forward through all of Brucie's tasteless jokes.

So will read all the comments later and make my verdict then.

Bye for now
Keeep Dancing

Go Matt......... perhaps the judges will say something nice about you and Aliona tonight.......

Nope Bruno, severed Achilles play a few years ago. Still stiff and gets achy with use now.

I think Scott is in a bit of danger tonight . His work commitments have impacted his performances and now he has to do three dances, I fears his stamina will cost him. Also I've seen a few people disgruntled with Pamela if you can believe it. Even if she comes top with the judges she may struggle for audience votes.

Got to be good tonight....no Ann Widdecombe....so I can concentrate on the dancing rather than keeping my dinner down!

The Nay sayers will have you believe that we won't have anything to talk about now. I fear they have under estimated Gavin.

Yaay is everyone ready to go - semi finals here we come !!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone. Just got back in from the weekly shop.

Hope gavin goes now. He's still so wooden and expressionless.

Seems the Faffing is contagious and has spread to the VT room

Well hurrah I get to spend 3 evenings with my strictly pals have even decided to forgo the works Christmas party so I don't miss the semi final (& take that of course)
Here we go, hang on to your seats it's going to be a great weekend!

If that is Tess' cleavage for the semi final, what is she wearing for the final!

Lets hope Bruces' jokes won't be as bad tonight

(You can only hope)

Well, today I got my hair cut to just above my shoulders. Less time taking to dry it and miss Strictly, lol.

What is this? Is tonight sponsered by WonderBra????

So excited. Had me chinese - glass of red wine on the go! Purfick!

Evening all.

Well done wardrobe you have made Pamela look 5 miles wide!

yewe don't like the way Pamela stanked down the stairs in that outfit.

Is it me or is Tess's cleavage vearing to the right?

Ive just remembered seeing Chassayoversway comment - I am at works Xmas party tomorrow and I can't miss it (I'm organising it) will have to keep up on the internet on my phone

yewe don't like the way Pamela stanked down the stairs in that outfit.

Titter, exactly what I was thinking!

they've cut up a corset to make James' shirt

Evening all will somebody find a trolley for bruce and wheel him off, I've had enough already

Bruno, we'll make sure and keep you updated on EVERYTHING that goes on. I promise.

What would they have done without that chair this series?!! Seems to appear at least once a week!

Thanks Fi appreciate it :)

Very fierce looking Paso. Bold. A lot out of hold. Ermmm well danced, not too taken with it though . Dfer 7

Is it one dance a day this weekend?

forgettable - and music a horribly hard choice for a paso

Could they not find some red shoes for Pamela?

Ok. Just ok. Not very exciting choreography I thougt - did not push Pamela very much.

Great shaping well done PamJam
I feel a few more 10's coming on.

Hiya just rushed here 'cos I didn't realise it was on air tonight - news like that doesn't reach Sydney Oz very quickly - anyone like some sunshine with their salt n vinegar crisps?

I really like Pamela she has been a revelation

It was probably better than I scored it, I guess my lowish score was cos I just found it cold. Maybe it was the music.

Someone should tell Alesha her zip has come undone.

PS because I am in Oz I can't see the show so please when Nat and Scott dance can someone be VERY descriptive?! LOL

gushing comments and this going to be overmarked - again

Ooh tinasparkles61 any sunshine here would be grateful

okay I for one did not enjoy pam's first dance much, and i completely agree with Craig, plus i think it's lacking a bit in dancing content

Lol Bruce. I read that that, looked and agreed.

Bruces favorite - Thats Pamela doomed!

ok - marks not too overdone

Pamela takes a strong lead in the big earrings contest

I think I need to watch that again to appreciate it......

Anyone else thinking Tess looking much skinnier tonight?

Yes, kizzysmum, overmarked...good but lacking passion

Pah Kara's double dangly ones aren't as impressive as Pam's.

Yep 8.13 am and its 28C need my marmite soldiers this morning - bit of a shock finding you guys here today C.mon Scott and Nat

Well, I am going to vote for the first time tonight when I feel my vote will count. I am going to vote for Kara: I find her dances both beautiful and exciting. I think Artem has pushed her and that she has shown enormous courage in the moves she has taken on. And they have been given a lukewarm reception too often from the judges.

Pretty dress. Wish Gavin would watch how Kara uses her arms. Smart that break from hold and back again on the turn. Dfer 10

Too bouncy.

Fi 8

Great song.

The dress looks better in motion - the front is too fussy.

Lovely dancing, but a couple of minor fluffs from kara.

9

Brilliant!

Please can someone post the actual scores for each one?

Very quick! not sure about the back stroke section but the solo spins were great & no timing issues, there that I could see.
Liked it 9 & I hope I am undermarking.

Ok I will.

they did a lift - Craig was right

Ah well the camera did show her feet so if she lifted it she did and can't be perfect.

8 from Craig then

When do we get the opportunity to vote off one of the judges? Maybe it will make them take the public comments seriously and show less bias.

Fantastic dance but must agree with Craig...I did spot Kara's foot off the ground at one point. But I loved it!

Thanks Fi - appreciate it - here's a handful of sunshine... whoosh

she could of done the same move and keep her foot
trailing. So uncontrolled and therefore can't be 10 and fairly not ten too. :(

9 10 10 10 for Kara

oh dear it's gavin.

well if Kara didn't control her foot how she intended it and was choreographed it can't be perfect by their own set standard.

Yes Gavan that eyebrow said it all!

Oh dear Gav isn't a Latin lover

Whoooo Hooo thnak you - sunshine and marmite soldiers for everyone ... Hope Nat and Scott do well not biased am I? much

Gavin (how do I look) Henson - oh dear the ego has landed

Oh no, its wooden Gavin.

Hope Wales sleeps this weekend.

So not only does Gavan think he can dance he also thinks he has a brain, well he can count to 3 so maybe?

Katya needs to find the rest of her dress.

Could Gavin be the next to go this week?

Katya wearing a 2 piece raspberry ripple affair.

Katya wobbling at start!

That's not hip action that's mincing!

reminds me of joe calzaghe.

He doesn't spot when turning and this is the semi final. He kinda lumbers about, muscle bound. I'd say Gavin's best dance. Dfer 6

i love Kara but her foot did leave the floor so she should only have been given 9s, they complained about people putting too many lifts in earlier in the series so cant really have double standards now...

timing? what timing?

Isn't the samba suppose to have bounce?
but is it allowed lifts?

6

oh dear

Gavin=wallpaper
Katya=decoration

Ohh I remember the Gypsy Kings loved dancing to their music many moons ago and before metal bits in the knees

Katya's earrings contenders?

so umble our Gav eh?

Ah and there is Gavin's trouble. He was satisfied with that. he shouldn't be, he should be fighting to improve.

Scot and Natalie

Yes Bruce , strong pair of contenders, but Natalie has been winning ears down for weeks now and look at this pair.

Thank you - Hope Nat has more fabric in her dress this week - I saw (in some photo's) last week that wardrobe was a tad short in that department
