What a dreadful shame to dance your last as a skeleton. She has been elegance personified throughout and it seems unfair to consign her to the annals forever immortalised as \u2018dem bones, dem bones, dem dry bones\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Theoretically of course Zara is exactly what Strictly is looking for. She\u2019s a tall, slim, graceful non-dancer prepared to work her socks off to master a brand new discipline. She couldn\u2019t have tried harder and, bless her, should have lasted far longer.<\/p>\n<p>She simply didn\u2019t stand a chance against the show\u2019s casting team who this year signed up a couple of professional dancers who earn(ed) their living as hoofers, notably Angela Scanlon and Layton Williams alongside a batch of stage schoolers who danced daily so true novices like Zara barely stand a chance.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a shame she\u2019s gone and a further shame the judges kept telling her to \u2018risk it\u2019 when she was just doing her level best to remember and execute the steps.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/20\/590x\/secondary\/Shirley-Ballas-5038796.jpg?r=1698607969064\"><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile exquisite Annabel Croft, another novice progressing astoundingly, somehow managed to make a terrifying tango look sensual and scintillating.<\/p>\n<p>Nigel Harman, lauded weekly as \u2018the one to watch\u2019 was castigated for \u2018too many mistakes\u2019. Sourpuss Shirley, who seemed to take her Wicked Queen get up a tad too seriously, sternly reminded all and sundry that \u2018we\u2019ve hit the halfway mark\u2019 as if we were all heading straight for the gallows.<\/p>\n<p>Krishnan Guru Murthy, another novice showing edifying improvement seemed to lose his grip on the Viennese waltz though unbraiding him for his posture when he was hindered horribly by his costume seemed harsh.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/20\/590x\/secondary\/Angela-Rippon-5038797.jpg?r=1698607969119\"><\/p>\n<p>Bobby Brazier, long-limbed golden boy got it in the neck from Craig for being flat-footed. Adam Thomas who smashed it with a spirited American Smooth inexplicably ended up in the dance off.<\/p>\n<p>Corrie\u2019s Ellie is the tremendously talented triumph of the leader board and Angela Rippon\u2019s Charleston was a soar away sensation.<\/p>\n<p>My money\u2019s still on Angela and Kai. If ever the comforting slogan \u2018age is just a number\u2019, which we all know is a fib, seemed for a few glorious weeks to be true, we have Angela to thank.
