who do we think will be the early favourites? Who will get to the grand finale? Who will turn most orange?

It's starting now and I am very excited...!

Abbey went wrong, I think, that's why she looked unhappy.
Ashley was great - very impressed.

I cant quite believe how slim Abbey and Sophie are. They arent sportswomen or pro dancers, and theyve had babies. I am so jealous!

Chubfuddler · 05/10/2013 20:57

No but one is a model/wag type thing and the other is a pop star (or was). And they're young slim types. There isn't usually a physical reason to gain weight just because a woman has had a baby

NomDeOrdinateur · 05/10/2013 21:07

Sophie was so good! I've never voted for a TV show like this before, but her performance has actually persuaded me to (well, that and the fact that it's free online)...

NomDeOrdinateur · 05/10/2013 21:10

Hang on - has the online voting thingy closed already? Blush

Sparklingbrook · 05/10/2013 21:12

Don't the fil the dance off thing tonight to show tomorrow Nom so it wouldn't surprise me.

Sparklingbrook · 05/10/2013 21:12

*they film

NomDeOrdinateur · 05/10/2013 21:16

Oh bugger, I knew there must be a downside to Sky+! Oh well - I'll vote for her next week to make up for it. Thanks, Sparkling! Smile.

Sparklingbrook · 05/10/2013 21:17

Do we still have to look at Digital Spy later to get the result?

AmIthatHot · 05/10/2013 22:02

I'd forgotten how much fun it was checking digital spy on a Saturday night Grin

Sparklingbrook · 05/10/2013 22:05

Is it around 11pm AmI?

AmIthatHot · 05/10/2013 22:13

Anytime after 10.30. But will probably be later as there are loads of couples to get through

Sparklingbrook · 05/10/2013 22:14

Don't forget though-

NO SPOILERS ON THIS THREAD, OR ANY ALLUDING TO RESULTS!!

V important.

AmIthatHot · 05/10/2013 22:35

Absolutely not Grin

ppeatfruit · 06/10/2013 08:40

Well that was interesting Grin Susannah's dress and hair WTF? had she upset the costume and make up designers or what? she looked like Cruella de Ville

Vanessa danced a lot better than I thought she would! do we reckon she's got the hots for James and he don't care a shxx.

ESB's charleston, brilliant she looked good and she can DANCE!

Someone upthread mentioned a level playing field IMO There isn't one in SCB but if the star mentions they've had training and is humble, we don't mind so much Grin.

ppeatfruit · 06/10/2013 08:42

Duh I meant SEB of course!!!

Sparklingbrook · 06/10/2013 08:43

Susanna's hair was a bit WTF.

I have voted for Ashley.

TSSDNCOP · 06/10/2013 17:35

You could watch SEB and Brendon do that Charleston all day and not get bored. She nailed it.

RedPencils · 06/10/2013 17:48

I had to watch last nights in two shifts. 15 is way too many, I was bored at the halfway point.

Sophie was brilliant, completely unexpected for me me as well
Rachel is the new Victoria Pendleton.
Ashley was best bloke, though I think he might peak too early. Working, new baby and training he'll be knackered half way through.
Natalie was good but a bit unforgettable. She's obviously trained so she needs to have a few duff weeks or she'll go the way of DVO. At least Kara has the decency to be a bit more rubbish at the beginning.
Fiona was better than Anton
I really like Abbey, she was obviously annoyed with herself. If Aliljz (?) keeps dancing topless, artem might find himself moved down to second place in my Top 3 Strictly dancers.
