If Victoria doesn't go tonight it will be very unfair, she was awkward and uncomfortable to watch. I think it would be cruel to have her in another week and put her through another horrible performance (not to mention cruel to the audience!).
Michael's argentine tango was worse than Colin's, I've got the same criticism to make - where was the intricate footwork that is characteristic of an ARGENTINE tango? Both Michael & Colin relied on their ability to lift their partners to disguise lack of content, but at least Colin had the excuse of dancing his AT MUCH earlier in the series. I fear for Michael in coming weeks, he doesn't have many ballroom dances left.
Lisa was actually better than I thought / feared she would be. I was quite angry with the judges comment about it lacking 'energy', I was really dreading her coming out and doing her big fun facial expressions and ruining the romantic mood. She did a decent job with a difficult dance.
Louis - WHAT are the judges on?! I agree with their point about performing more but was that dance worse than Michael, Lisa, Kimberley and Nicky?! It should have been 8/10 at least. I find the marking completely inconsistent, Louis is clearly in the top 3 dancers and yet gets continuously marked down. Then Len speaks up for Michael missing a fundamental element of his dance basically saying that the male celebs aren't expected to lead the female pros.
Flavia needs to insist on traditional music and choreography for their next dance, and really get Louis to emote a bit more. That's the only way they'll ever satisfy the judges.
Nicky hugely over marked too. Coming after Denise's "best charleston ever" it was especially obvious.
