The first lady of Strictly gives us the low down from back stage Hi everyone! Well, after yet another sensational show this week, we sadly had to say our goodbyes to Letitia. But what a girl! She did so well. It was like she finally had the confidence to get out on that dance floor and give it her all on Saturday, and it was plain to see that she was loving every minute of it. It's so sad to see her go, and we're all going to miss her so much. I'll miss her giving me a big hug at the end of every show, she was so much fun to be around. But one thing's for sure, she's had an absolute ball. Well done Tish – you're a star! The nerves got the better of poor Matt on the night, bless him. What people don't realise is that he was literally shaking backstage before he went on. It's so hard to remember all of those steps. They're working hard all week, and only have those 90 seconds to prove themselves on the dance floor. And unlike EastEnders, this is live – you can't do a retake if you get it wrong. He was really upset afterwards, mainly as he thought he'd let Flavia down. It was such a shame when he's been doing so well – who could forget those shoulder shakes in his Salsa? But, he was so grateful that the public voted to keep him in. Let's hope he can keep those nerves at bay next week. And what can I say about Gethin? Who is this guy, and what has he done with our Geth?! He was top of the judges' leader board, and all on his own too for the first time. He did a fantastic job with the American Smooth, and he had everyone on their feet with his Jive! What's the secret of his success? Well, he keeps blaming it on my mints! As you know I always have a supply on hand backstage to keep away my thirst so that I don't need the loo during the show, and he's been helping himself to them as well! Maybe he's right? I don't know what's happened to him, but we're all loving this new Gethin – as I say, watch out Ramps, there's a new Lothario of the Ballroom in town! Alesha came out and wowed everyone once again with her beautiful Viennese Waltz and her passionate Paso Doble. She's always a joy to watch, and is just incredible every time. But how did she end up in the bottom two? It was such a shocker to see her in the dance off. But, maybe it was another case of the viewers at home thinking she was safe and so didn't need their votes. It just goes to show, you're never safe wherever you are on that leader board – every vote counts. And so, this week it's semi final time, and I don't think the tension could be any higher! Will Matt be able to leave his nerves at the door? Will Alesha be able to keep up her high standard? Will Gethin be able to take us by storm yet again? And how will they all measure up to Vincent and Flavia's incredible demonstration of the Argentine Tango? Who knows. This is Strictly - anything can happen... and it probably will! n the meantime, Keep dancing! Love Tess Source |
