Chris Whitty on Strictly?

32 replies

MotherOfGodWeeFella · 15/04/2021 22:24

Just read a tabloid headline that Strictly want to sign up Chris Whitty. I'm wondering what they might have him dance to? A salsa to Doctor Beat perhaps...

Any other suggestions?

Witch doctor?

Nah, he won’t do it. JVT might though...

A waltz or a quickstep do you think?

Stay at home (by Men at Work) would be fitting.

Murder on the dance floor (if no s.d in place with him and his partner)

(... not a reflection of my personal beliefs btw!)

She's infected by suede (it's actually she's in fashion but I always hear the pandemic version)

Jive to staying alive by beegees.

Viennese waltz to the drugs don't work by the verve.

Oh no, Micheal Mcintyre did a sketch about this last year!!! I'll try and find it.

Plenty of people have turned down Strictly. Professor Whitty will be another on the list, no doubt.

Next potential contestant please.

I agree that JVT might be up for it, definitely looks like he has a good sense of humour.

"A salsa to Doctor Beat"
That has made me laugh a lot.

abouttogoon · 16/04/2021 07:37

Would dance to something from the top of the charts ...

DobbyTheHouseElk · 16/04/2021 07:38

No way. He hates being on tv for the briefings.

I'm also wondering how they could work in "next slide please" as he knew slides across the dancefloor.

Someone could do a couple's choice to Stay With Me by Shakespear's Sister.

This is the Michael McIntyre sketch.

Lindy2 · 16/04/2021 08:16

I think he's a bit busy right now - what with there being a pandemic and everything.

Michael Macintyre did a sketch at the beginning of lockdown where his 2019 self went to visit a fortune teller who told him the winner of the 2023 strictly was Chris Whitty, to which he responded ‘who’ 😂😂
