Criticizing cliona for choreography that she can't control.....

Cliona got a very good innings so far. I could not understand how the judges marked her as highly as they did in the past as some of her dances were just not good. I did not like any of them until she danced with Vitali - when she was amazing, as she was with Robert the following week. She was unfortunate to have had Robert as her partner as he is not a good choreographer, imo.

A cracking song makes all the difference ...mairead probably danced as average as the weeks before but put to great music it looks better.

Agreed, poor Clelia having to dance to such an incredibly bland song

When Johhny was crticized for emily's bad choreography twitter was up in arms about it, when Cliona was nothing. A woman will never win this show as long as a male contestant shows some sort of ability no matter how good the women is.

Johnny came in the most experienced in dance he's great but doesn't deserve to win at all

That was bloody awful. Robert seems a weak choreographer.

There was not much dancing in that!

It would be a bit like entering Aidan O'Mohaney and Julian Benson in a penalties competition!

Exactly. Having Johnny in this competition is like entering the Chieftains in a local music competition and pretending they are at the same standard as the other competitors.

No suprise there lol

If we had 12 Eilish or Denis no one would watch .

Johnny was great and all, but I swear he was just repeating the same/similar set of moves over and over again the whole 3 minutes?

Conspiracy? More like fact the last two winners say hello. Anna was better then Jake and both women in series one were MILES better the Aidan. Its a fact and this year will again prove it

You'd kind of like to see Johnny trip or something, just to remember that he is still an amateur.

Though considering he's danced in musicals, the term amateur may not be strictly true at all.

You can have a contestant who grow and improve over the week and improve.
Johnny is like having Nevim Maguire in Celebrity Masterchef.

Brian has already said on another show that he thinks one of the girls might win it this year. The judges have been marking Cliona highly from the start, even when her dances were not that great. But, what do I know? :pac:

It never has been, but because he is a man people cover their ears when someone points it out

awful song choice by Cliona. what on earth were they thinking going for that, i knew they were going to struggle as soon as i heard that song.

Johnny is the best dancer in the competition. Hope he wins. He's amazing.

he shouldnt be in it at all, he is a professional stage performer and has years of experience. massive advantage and it goes against the spirit/aims of it, in my opinion.

cliona probably in the same boat, but nowhere near the exposure to dance and performance that johnny has had.

Johnny ward tho.... he is way ahead of the rest of the field.

But I have a soft spot too for Mairead cos John is from KK and I'd love for him to be the winning pro dancer
