Strictly Come Dancing: week six results – as it happened
Share:
Thanks for watching along with me, televisual trick-or-treaters. The right result, I think, but still bittersweet. Our 10 pairings now pass the contest’s midway mark and move on to the seventh live show - a brand-new themed week celebrating “music icons across the decades”. The mind boggles. It airs next Saturday at 6.30pm on BBC1. Meet you back here to analyse all the sequin-spangled action and quibble about overuse of the word “icon”.

In the meantime, please jot it on a sticky notelet and attach it to your fridge door: keeeeeeep dancing! Goodnight, gang. On Amy Dowden’s absence, giroliddy says: “Poor JB looked so lonely on his own. Thank goodness he’s through.”. ReclinedPotato says of the group dance: “Carlos is going to give me nightmares, turning from Claude into Beetlejuice!”.

jagadox says of the night’s musical guest: “I’m not always charmed by the Sunday ‘turn’ but Lady Blackbird is banging.”. AlanStatham adds: “Wait, what? Icons week? Bruno Mars? Icon threshold sets a new low bar.”. On Dr Punam Krishan’s departure, GreatIsMyNewt says: “She didn’t seem surprised but she hasn’t been improving at the rate of some of the others. I do wonder how much they are able to train affects their performances.”.

Paperview says: “Punam in the dance-off is a cautionary tale about what happens when someone forces Gorka to do up his shirt.”. acanthe adds: “I’m glad she got to do her Couple’s Choice. That was a special one.”. Let’s conduct a swift vox pop of your comments. On Shayne Ward’s dance-off appearance, spleety says: “GASP!!! The curse of the mid-table, mid-season placing.”.
