Strictly Come Dancing 2012 - who's getting excited?

[CeliaFate]

Just read that Katya Virshilas isn't returning to the show, a new dancer Karen Hauer is taking her place.

Who will be in this year's line up?

So the judges have the final word on who goes? What's the point of voting then?

Was Louis okay? We've still got rugby on, despite it being practically over.

Only the bottom two rest is vote . Guess it stop the popularity bit in last two being the redeeming feature

oh Louis was a bit meh.....

Means that popularity won't be enough

He looks ok to me LetUsPrey click link

He was meh, agree.

MrsPan's hair is a better colour these days, suits her. Did you have a word, MrPan?

This thing's come on after Strictly, a bloke looks like Dermot.

well, yes Fiderer, I worked closely with her stylists, and convinced her the flame-hair was great but it's had it's time. But didn't she look so pretty?

(On a side note, MrPan, did you see Berlin wants its money back from Ray?)

Those links were very welcome!

CuriousMama does he still look like Dermot in this?

Pan - have you thought of changing the twins' names to Athina and Ikos?

took me ages to come up with that

i love louis but he seemed to have no rhythm
thought lisa and dani were great - dani undermarked
jerry - all the lights are on but no ones home
hope kimberley and dvo don't make it to the final

thought sid was good too

No it wasn't Sherlock cumbersnatch it was some t'ova guy? I'll have a google see if I can find him? Seems to be Merlin or sommat that came on?

LUP. No. Though clever!

< Fiderer , yes I saw that and he has disappeared again after phoning his step-mum and saying he would be home. The fact der Berlin Rathaus would like 20,000 euros from him could be a factor in that....>

Look beyond the background and the title CuriousMama. It just happens to be on one of the many Sherlock blogs on Tumblr I've glanced at. I'll see if I can find some stills of it.

Tom Hopper's his name.

Can I just say, that I made have had a hormonal tear in my eye when Lisa danced. She was easily the best dancer of the night, made it look easy and fun (even if it was bloody hard work in reality).

Why did the top half of Tess' outfit look like a swimsuit?

Yes he's the fella. My those boys need a good wash and I think I know someone who'd like to do it!

Can I ask... is Strictly from tonight repeated anywhere else or do we have to use iplayer? Cheers

Discaimer: Not me but her up there ^ mucky LetUsPrey

Thanks Pan.

• sorry for slight thread hijack BTW.

Back to SCD - I too thought the top of Tess' dress was very swimsuity.

Looked like Flavia and Louis didn't get on at all, which is a shame as he should be good. But he seemed to have no personality, not a smile.

She had the best dress though.

Lisa was great, shame they did the "her lifting him" thing at the end. She didn't need a gimick.
