| I must admit last season I loved his dancing but found him a little cold, but this time I am noticing that he is very caring with his partners. He isn't all over them or gushy or giving hugs and kisses but there is something in his manner that is extremely protective which I find nice. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I got the total opposite impression. I thought Craig was very warm and sweet with Fiona. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I totally disagree with you diamonte, I think Craig is doing a great job teaching her, they just get better each week. I thought Bridie was wonderful, people were so nasty and judgemental, so wrong! She was very focused on her dancing and perhaps nervous as well. |

| I like Fiona, but could Craig get any colder? He and Bridie Carter when they won, were a perfect match. Both Icebergs. I wish Fiona had someone else to dance with. They have NO chemistry, such a shame! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Fiona is great. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I LOVED the props! Fiona should have poked Todd in the eye with the brolly! ;-p | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Here's an excerpt from an article on Fiona. I love her 'feet dyslexia' comment. Starting the show was the worst and best day of my life,â she said, noting her âdreamâ partner in the show, Craig Monley, was âa real supportâ. âI was just looking forward to throwing myself into a bubble of dancing and clean living.â OâLoughlin has no previous dance training and says sheâs the âoldest and the widestâ in a strong field of competitors. But sheâs hoping to stay in the competition for a few more episodes, because itâs fun - and healthy. âThe impetus for joining the show was getting fit,â she said during a quick break from learning a new dance. âI heard you lose weight, although Iâve got feet dyslexia.â |

| The waltz dress was a funny colour but it did flatter her. I thought the green dress, while it was a nice colour, the all over fringes moving tended to make her appear wider than the waltz dress. The shorter length, while necessary for the dance seemed to shorten her. I know that sounds weird. I preferred her performance last week too but it could've just been the long dress covering things up. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Last week Fiona danced the Waltz so wore a modern ballroom gown which is meant to be long although styles can vary from mid calve to ankle - also covers up a multitude of sins as well lol unlike the old short tutu style which fortunately went out in the early 1980's. I quite liked her latin dress but felt the colour looked a bit drab on television although might have looked good live. Some colours just don't look great under studio lights even if they look just fine otherwise. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| On the contrary, I thought her green fringed dress was sensational and suited her beautifully! Last week's dress was so long it was hard to see her feet. I felt that the green dress was one of the most striking we've seen on the show. Go Fiona! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Sure wasn't brilliant but full marks to her for trying so hard in such difficult personal circumstances. I don't think her dress suited her. Last week's dress was far more flattering. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Whew bet your glad that's over!! good luck next week!!! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hey girl!!! We all love you here in Alice!!!! Keep smiling and dancing sending lots of votes Marge wants me to send one for her too (she's not sure how to) see you when you get back Cheers Melody and Roger and all your friends here at home MWAAAA xxxxxx |

| I agree with Todd. The rhumba was very weak, but when she smiled she relaxed and it changed the whole feel of the routine. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Not the best but still not bad. Thought Todd was a bit eek. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Not a great one, but good on her for trying. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| {sigh} I'm really disapointed with that rountine :-( Although, in the bits where she just started smiling and being a bit silly, were the better bits. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I love her too Mrs Z! She is a real performer, kept being funny, had nerves of steel and did all this while giving up alcohol! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I LOVE Fiona!! I think she has real guts and she was just wonderful to watch last week. I was really surprised to see how she held the nerves at bay - there is no way I could have done that after the week she had. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Fiona's attitude is refreshing- "I'm the oldest in the pack and I know I'm the shortest and the widest but it's great fun. ''I didn't think I'd enjoy it this much." |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Fiona is very humble as evidenced by this article excerpt.'O'Loughlin said it was daunting meeting them. (the other celebs) "But now I am understanding dance - I didn't realise there is a lot of personality in dance," she said. "If you have got your heart in it, your feet follow - it sounds really corny, but it is true." I think that sounds so lovely! |

| Fantastic news !! - Confidential understands O'Loughlin has started attending a rehab program in Melbourne, where she is living while recording the show. A Channel 7 spokeswoman would not comment on the rehab rumours yesterday, but said the 45-year-old was doing remarkably well. "The discipline of dancing is going to keep her going," she said. "Her story is one of inspiration. The reaction in support of her has been superb." |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hopefully that humour will increase as she finds herself getting used to the show. I hope she stays in so we can see it. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hi Cheeky, I've only just started watching Thank God You're Here (only taken me how many years to discover it ??). I downloaded some past episodes and the one with Cal Wilson (the comedienne from last series you mention) was actually one of the funniest I have seen. She didn't come across as funny on DWTS, probably because she was way out of her comfort zone and I agree Fiona's humour was quick and natural. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Yes, she seems funnier than the last comedienne they had on. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
