RACHEL STEVENS & Vincent Simone
Waltz: She looks delicious in whatever she wears, and this ball gown was no different. Open-backed, floating white skirt, hair tied back, and an enormous amount of cleavage as usual. Beautiful.Paso Doble: "The Final Countdown"? Crazy song choice, in a good way. Rachel looked fab strutting around in her sea-green dress, cut up the skirt for occasional glimpses of thigh, and showing of her taut stomach.
LISA SNOWDON & Brendan Cole
Foxtrot: Another elegant dance, with Lisa putting on her best 1920s sophisticate impression. Neat lipstick, open-backed dress, tight hair, elbow-length gloves. Classy.Cha Cha Cha: Fan-tas-tic! As Craig might say. Great body, towering legs, plenty of shape and her saucy moves made that pinky-orange dress literally vibrate around her curves. A series highlight. Amazing.
CHRISTINE BLEAKLEY & Matthew Cutler
Tango: Goth tango? Unusual style, although she looked a bit rough and her curves were hidden by that full-length black dress. Points for originality, and a few quick glimpses of legs, but otherwise very forgettable.Salsa: Golden-brown dress and a fun dance that showed off Christine's lithe body, long legs and huggable waist. Cute little skirt that hula'd around her body at all times. Excellent stuff.
ERIN BOAG & Austin Healey
Foxtrot: Light blue dress with lots of tassels and an airy quality, again going for the '20s look these slower dances usually demand. Not great.Paso Doble: Absolutely captivating dance (excellent, unusual start) and Erin looked both frightening and strangely exciting in her performance. Plenty of leg, flicking of a yellow skirt, glittery top, sexy spins and lots of attitude. Hot.
CAMILLA DALLERUP & Tom Chambers
Waltz: Angular dress designed to look like the sea (the song choice was "Moon River"), which worked well. Not the most revealing outfit, but Camilla has a nicely toned back, doesn't she.Samba: A dress like shredded paper, once again only allowing looks at Camilla's best assets: her legs and back. Good, but not great.
THE DANCE-OFF
Y'know, it's got to the stage when it's a shame to see anyone voted off. This week's public vote put Rachel & Vincent up against Christine & Matthew in the dance-off. The judges made the wise decision (both in terms of dance and pure sex appeal) to keep Rachel in, meaning poor Christine had tango'd her last.
Who will win? Well, I think Rachel still deserves it, but she clearly has popularity problems. Likewise Lisa, who's a huge fan of the show but hasn't endeared herself to voters somehow. Therefore, I suspect a man will win this year – meaning it's between Tom and Austin. If so, I expect Tom & Camilla to sneak it.
