Strictly P****d Off

My internet is playing up here at home and I had a nightmare trying to watch yesterday's Strictly Come Dancing this afternoon. The internet kept cutting out roughly every 4 minutes and I was getting really frustrated with it. I managed to watch nearly half of the couple dance, but missed my favourite, Austin, who was showing off his great chest this time.
Rachel and Vincent went first with a samba and it was a bit of a lack-lustre performance for me. It appeared to me that the pace of the dance didn't match the music despite the moves being in time. I know that doesn't make sense, but I know what I mean!
Lisa and Brendan came second with an American Smooth which was very smooth and elegant. I just wish that she would quit with the waterworks, it is annoying.
Heather and Brian were third with a samba. Heather looked great in her dress and 70's afro hairstyle, but she looked like she wasn't sure what she was doing. Brian looked like he was dressed up as Power Man from Marvel Comics in his yellow shirt and tight trousers.
Fourth up were Cherie Lunghi and James Jordan (who I was amused today to find out has a namesake in gay porn!). Cherie was as elegant as usual and the dance had an amazing finish.
Mark and Hayley danced a samba, with Mark in a sheer, net-like top showing off his great body. Unfortunately the dance seemed to emphasise his limbs once again. He had some acting coaching from John Barrowman (whoever he is!) and it sort of paid off, but the actual dancing let him down. He also seemed to forget his moves at some points and looked hunched too. It's a shame because I really want him (and John Sergeant) to do well.
Don and Lilia were next, and I only managed to see some of the dance before I turned off the internet to watch the results show live. He looked awkward, unsure and clumpy in parts.
After watching the results show I tried to carry on watching that Saturday show, but iPlayer seemed to have removed the show. I find this very frustrating as all other shows seem to be on there for a week, but Strictly gets removed once the results show has been aired. I hope they change this policy soon as I miss Strictly almost every week because of work.

The results show had a great paso doble performed by the professionals, danced to "I Predict a Riot" originally by the Kaiser Chiefs. Some of the celebrities will be performing a paso next week, which is always good and cringeworthy!!
Alicia Dixon performed her new single, to which some of the pro's accompanied with a great dance. Unfortunately I didn't like the song at all.
In the end the celebrity leaving the show this week was Don Warrington, I guess it was only a metter of time.
