Dominic Littlewood dances out of Strictly Come Dancing
|
Dominic Littlewood "got done" tonight when he became the fifth person to be voted
off ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ One's Strictly Come Dancing – after failing to
impress the judges in the dance off.
Ìý
All the couples danced either the Foxtrot or the Paso Doble, but once
again one of those couples had to leave.
Ìý
Last week there was controversy when Gabby Logan was voted off
the show.
Ìý
But it was Dominic and John Barnes who found themselves in the bottom
two competing in the dance off.
Ìý
Of Dominic's performance the judges said:
Ìý
Arlene: "The good – more Paso content than anything tonight, more drama.
The bad – sometimes you charge round the floor like a raging bull not
listening to the music. High drama."
Score: 7.
Ìý
Bruno: "You went for the Spanish content but danced to a different band.
But you have to listen to the music and watch the periscope hands. But
you did make an effort."
Score: 6.
Ìý
Len: "My heart goes out to you celebs. You have such a hard job. You're
cheeky but the Paso is aggression yet you came out and changed your
persona and gave it your best."
Score: 7.
Ìý
Craig: "For me full of crowd pleasing moments but technically for me
really boxy because you were trying too hard. Your timing was out, your
shoulders raised."
Score: 5.
Ìý
Total score: 25/40.
Ìý
The judges' leader board was as follows:
Ìý
- Alesha 36
- Penny 35
- Matt 32
- Letitia 31
- Gethin 31
- Kelly 28
- Kate 26
- Dominic 25
- John 24
- Kenny 21

On the dance off the judges said:
Ìý
Craig: "It was certainly not the best dance of the evening but for
natural rhythm I vote for John and Nicole."
Ìý
Arlene: "I'm obsessed with rhythm and because of that I vote for John
and Nicole."
Ìý
Bruno: "I am going for the person with the most natural dance talent, a
natural charmer. John and Nicole."
Ìý
The three judges agreed and therefore John went through but Len said:
"Who would have expected them both to entertain us so beautifully? I
vote for John and Nicole."
Ìý
Afterwards Dominic said: "Everyone behind the scenes has been wonderful. The
better man got through ... I can have a vindaloo tonight!"
Ìý
The competition continues next week when the couples perform either the
Viennese Waltz or the Salsa.
