What a spectacular show !

Hardly my idea of ballroom dancing perhaps, but didn't they all do well !!!

I wonder who will be leaving this week?

We enjoyed it too, Aggers, although the blatant overmarking is annoying. Tonight it should really be Susan or Jonnie - Susan mostly only walked around and even though I really admire how hard she works and takes it seriously, her time has come I think, also Jonnie, who is never going to be able to correct his posture due to the balance issues he would have as a result of his disability.

Shame about Johnnie isn't it, they keep on about his bottom but it's obvious he can't do the moves properly otherwise, and it does spoil it.

Very true, Di. It does make you wonder about the wisdom of ever believing that a Paralympian, no matter how talented in his or her sport, can compete with fully able bodied people on equal terms.

Yes, it was nice that he thanked the judges for treating him on equal terms.
I'm happy with anyone competing, but would not like to see a 'token' disabled person.
