Strictly Come Dancing

hey, do we have a mumsnetter appearing this year?

is she or isn't she?

ohhh yes...I can't wait either

bumping this to remind myself to switch over from cbeebies and watch tomorrow evening.

Oh yes, I loved the last series. Sadly.

Me and DS2 started ballroom lessons afetr the last series, so we shall be able to tell what they are doing this time!!

love love love this show. Remember watching it whilst in hospital last year with pre-eclampsia - it really cheered me up!

I'll be watching but will record so I can fast forward all the inane chat in between!

I like that darren bennett myself! lol.

bump (and grind)

Love it! Does it clash with X-Factor? Thank the sweet Lord for Sky plus!

I can't wait, we love strictly come dancing, dp and I are about to start ballroom and dd dances already.

It is dd favourite show, she dances all the way through it. Last year we took her to an amateur dance championships in which many of the Strictly judges were at and she sat through the show for about 3 hours as good as gold, absolutley mesmorised - she was only just 3 at the time.

We have a live show here in the Ballroom, hopefully we can get tickets.

Twinset - sounds fab! Btw, why are you not on the Leeds meet up at Xmas?

I want Bill to win

I don't like Aton tooooooooo cocky

Colin is DB

we alove it too
loev the dresses - are taping x factor

brendan and cruella {fiona} - dreadful

Colin was fantastic.
Really liked Zoe too.
Consequently not bothering to vote as they'll both definitely go through!

lol Gobblediespook I don't know why I am not down for the Xmas meet up. I will rectify it straight away!

I thought Zoe was very good, how can she think she looks like a man!!?? Colin was also great, good to see a man doing well for a change.

Was anyone else gobsmacked at how good Dennis Taylor was? I was expecting hime to be really dreadful, but he was quite a little goer (for his age and shape).

all very excited in the cadbury household
I was surprised by Dennis Taylor - had imagined he would be like my dad at my wedding but he can actually move!
Secretly hoping for Zoe to win this whole thing
