[Closed] seeing as I do it every year - Strictly come dancing

yep. Don't be pretending you don't love it too, all the flesh and sequins. Oh and Brucie of course....

Yuppar!
Vicky P & Kimberley Walsh. Proper bo I tell thee.
Could be best one since when Rachel Stevens was in it.

I reckon so mos. I'm not sure about the new professional women though. I wish they'd get Karen back dancing!

Already banished to the kitchen with eldest son, youngest hiding upstairs! 🙄

Wife frowns every time I speak....

I flicked on....

Queen Vic AND that little Aussie songstress, STW might just combust!

Queen Vic has just had a shocker!

oh dear

I wish they'd get Karen back dancing!

Oh dear! Bless her! Very interesting insight to her mind set though......

Someone needs to stop Darcy reaffirming everything she says to people by finishing off her sentences with 'yaaaa, yes! yaaaa'.

turned on to miss what VP did wrong but, lotta love (and bike related puns...) from the judges...

She looked awful with that slap on. Yak!

I reckon she (VP) might win, her or tracy beaker.

Some name though...Marnie Mercedes Darcey Pembleton Crittle

WTF? really?

Aye, what they did to Vicky's face was terrible.
Kristina and Natalie though....HMMMMM MMMMMMMM!!!

Wife always watches so I get sucked in, honest!

WTF? really?

Wikipedia doesn't lie

Tess Daly has magnificent assets (as a TV presenter*)

So it's not too bad.

Reckon I can keep this thread going until Final's night? I'm going to try - so it becomes like the rugby thread 🙂

Very interesting insight to her mind set though......

Read her book. Very revealing

I really don't know why I like watching it but I do. It has a strange allure and is kind of therapeutic. Don't make a point of watching it but will quite happily settle down for a session if it's on. Odd.

I miss Lilia and Darren ( professional dancers).
Darcy is so much better than the other lady judge used to be (can't remember her name),with her bad grammar and lots of 'like' and 'you know', so would rather have the Yahs and lots of tips for the dancers from Darcy.

Looking forward to Louis Smith tomorrow.

Just a frown?... I get a full on scowl and growl from MrsH...

it was like she worked for 'Perfect Curve'

well, hopefully someone will have played last night back to her and she wont do it tonight

I miss Lillian and Darren too Bunny - I know what you mean about it being nice to have someone who actually knows what they are talking about (as opposed to Alyesha??) with Darcey but the yaaa yaaa'ing is potentially going to get annoying :/

I quite like it but the presenters ruin it for me. Next time they bury Bruce Forsyth they need to put him a bit deeper.

But it's a gameshow that (kinda) rewards talent and hard work, which is good.

No Aliona... 🙁 not worth watching now. Bloody useless Johnny Ball!

Dead behind the eyes.

best bit is the cleavage bouncing shot as they run up the stair.

I nearly gumphed last night.

According to my 17 y/o on Monday daughter (christ I'm old) Denise Van Outen and Tess Daly hate the sight of each other.... Live sequined fight potential I think

Tripe like that is banned in our house.

I recorded last night's but not had time to watch it before tonight's - I don't reckon it'll make any difference which order I see them in. 🙂

Aliona is injured and is johnny balls partner so she should be back in three weeks don't panic!

LadyG it won't matter on order with these two this weekend-there's no public vote or dance off til next week 🙂

My money is on either Louis or Kimberley and the dark horse this year is Sid Owen. Not to keen on Jerry Hall, can't see her improving, wrong attitude. Sad to hear Tess and Denise don't get on, hope they don't end up fighting live on tv in those skimpy dresses, that would be just to terrible...sorry strayed into male fantasy land at the end there.
Ps, Whats the money on a bike being dragged out as a prop at some point for Queen Vic?

I find it's a good way of cutting down the number of people I follow on Twitter. What is it about SCD that makes people (who don't do it for other TV) tweet every detail about it? If I wanted to know I'd watch it thankyouverymuch.

......as long as someone throws in a gateaux or some baby oil if it all does beak down eh Mark?? 🙂
I also have the same predictions as you too. Did enjoy Lisa Riley too, surprise of the night.

Good to see Tess has put a pound or two on 😆

Yeah Emma, Lisa Riley was good and they looked like they were having good fun with it. And as for gateaux, talk about feeding the fantasy..

see what I did there

I'll get my coat.

"One for the dads" as they call it in the trade.

I always enjoy listening to the orchestra - occasionally a singer might make a mess of a cover but the highlight is that superb Lance Ellington is one of the male singers:

Well I won't be voting for Michael Vaughan 🙄

my blood pressure has just returned to sub critical after watching Ola shake her stuff.

O M G

😯

Michael Vaughan cannot dance for toffee, however he was entertaining.
Come on Victoria you can do it.
