Saturday Night At The Musicals

I didn't blog about Strictly last week... and as nobody has mentioned it, I presume no one has noticed (or cares). So a quick catch up before we tackle this week (I know you're all gagging to find out what happens next!) It was actually a bit of a disappointing one last week. The judges criticised everyone quite heavily, with Ben & Kristina and Mark & Iveta landing in the bottom two. I'm sure I wasn't the only one who thought that would be the end of Mark's 'journey', but no....Ben messed up more than Mark in the dance-off and Mark lived to dance another week. Yay! I think Ben might have been a teeny tiny bit relieved but Kristina was very upset, bless her.
So that means.....Oh No! Only seven couples left, a shorter show and more chance of losing your favourite! It's musicals week so be warned, there will be some dressing up......

RESULTS

It had to happen sooner or later, Ashley & Ola ended up in the bottom two with Mark & Iveta (who were there for the fourth time and unfortunately Mark was up against someone who really was better than him. Very sad to see Mark & Iveta leaving, they have been wonderful.
