Strictly Come Dancing - Week Six

God, they really want to in this don't they? Everybody seems to be actually getting better week by week and that doesn't tend to happen alot really. What a good show this was though. However, just like last week, someone has made a terrible tumble down the leader-board. speaking of, let's have a look shall we? 

Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – 36
Matt Baker & Aliona Vilani – 35
Pamela Stephenson & James Jordan – 33
Jimi Mistry & Flavia Cacace – 32
Michelle Williams & Brendan Cole - 30
Felicity Kendal & Vincent Simone – 29
Patsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – 29
Gavin Henson & Katya Virshilas 29
Scott Maslen & Natalie Lowe – 28
Ann Widdecombe & Anton Du Beke - 17

Oh dear. Natalie Lowe is going to be fuming. Remember Scott Maslen being at the top of the leader-board with a whopping 39 points last week? Well now he's second from the bottom. How embarrassing! The thing is, it wasn't that bad. He didn't deserve a 4 from Craig Revel Horwood. Happier news however, Pamela Stephenson made a good comeback. And a lot of couple did very well and got their highest scores to date!

Let's take a look at the best and worst dances of the night:

Best:

Kara is getting so good! That first 10 of the series must have really spurred her on! She's great!

Matt has been constantly good and there was no change here tonight. Excellent! 

Worst:

Poor Ann. She is hilarious and it is entertaining and I love her, but come on. Time to go soon don't you think. There'll riots if good people start to go like Scott or Matt over her. I don't know how she feels, but I feel like she's treat like a joke by the judges, especially Bruno Tonioli who constantly makes nasty comments about her weight. 

Make sure you catch the results show tonight, and for interviews and make stage gossip, as always watch Claudia Winkleman on It Takes Two, BBC2 6:30 weeknights. 

Strictly Come Dancing - Week Five

What a game changer this show was. Some of the people constantly in the middle of the leader-board stepped up and one front runner took a stumble.

Let's take a look at this week's leader-board.

Scott Maslen & Natalie Lowe – 39
Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev – 37
Matt Baker & Aliona Vilani – 34
Patsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – 31
Jimi Mistry & Flavia Cacace – 30
Michelle Williams & Brendan Cole - 29
Tina O'Brien & Jared Murillo – 28
Pamela Stephenson & James Jordan - 27
Felicity Kendal & Vincent Simone - 26
Gavin Henson & Katya Virshilas 26
Ann Widdecombe & Anton Du Beke - 16

So Ssssssssscott has gone and got himself 3 10's and well deserved they were!   Poor Pamela however. That's a hefty stumble she took there. I guess I was wrong last week about this being the beginning of her end maybe? Either way she's not in a good place. Meanwhile, Kara Tointon was on fire! And look at Patsy Kensit 4th from the top! Who knew! A lot of great dances tonight. it appears everyone, well almost everyone has stepped up their game. Also did anyone catch that bust up between Brendan Cole and judge Len Goodman? Draaamaaa!

So let's look at the best and worst dances of the night.


Best:

Scott Malsen is the breakout star of this competition. Three 10's in week five? That's impressive. It must be Natalie Lowe. Remember her last year with Ricky Whittle? Yeah. Amazing stuff from Scott!
 

Finally! She's here. I thought Kara would do well but her recent dances weren't up to much but this is fantastic. Well done you. 

Worst:

It's time to go Ann. I think after this week people who can dance are going to start leaving instead of you and that's when it gets complicated and controversial. You are fun but at the end of the day this is a dance competition. 

Did you enjoy the show? Did anyone surprise you? Who was your favourite?
