Rachel and Vincent certainly can produce a good dance routine, it's step perfect, if a little lacklustre in the latin performances, but where's that bit of fire, or passion, or serenity that makes your heart leap into your mouth in sheer awe of the whole package. Sometimes I just think "yeah very nice" but there's no spark of emotion anywhere.
I'm getting to like Tom a little more, sometimes he can be the opposite to Rachel, he acts his role very well, the emotion is there but it's to the detriment of the performance, Camilla is left to take a back seat instead of the emphasis on the partnership and unity of the two dancers in the routine.
Just because Lisa doesn't leap up and down screaming and shouting doesn't mean I'm any more inclined to think she doesn't give a toss. When my dog won it's first championship title I smiled and walked off the track, maybe it's because I'm not a showy flashy person and apt to be shy in public that it's what I can notice in her. As the weeks have gone by and her confidence has grown her dancing has improved immensely, yes in my opinion I can pick fault in her performances just as I can everyone elses.
At the end of the day, the format of judging is that the public vote is added to the judges vote. The dancers finishing in the bottom two positions to take part in a dance off for a place in the final. Now if there's 3 pairs and a tie for first place there's two choices, either everybody goes through or you change the rules, don't have a dance off and one couple goes out by sheer tough luck. It would be unfeasible in my eyes to change the rules right at the end of the competition and I think the BBC made the right decision.
