[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

Starting a new thread quickly before tonight's results show! We talk too much

ITT on BBC2 - It Takes Two- is daily at 6.30-7pm. I try to remember to watch it as usually getting dinner ready. It is informative when the ballroom experts are on - Ian and Karen Hardy.
Craig was on yesterday and repeated that Natalie is a gorgeous dancer, but did not give her a ten as she wobbled a couple of times. As she is so skilled he is very critical of her dancing.
They showed a repeat of her lovely head, body and arm movements in the V.Waltz.
Bonnie L did appear in dancing on ice, she was brilliant in the lifts, but her solo skating was weak. She was still so tiny and flexible.

Yes I watch it too digerd CRH was quite human and I totally agree he should be picky when it comes to trained celebs like Natalie in fact the other judges would do well to copy him!

I really like Craig on ITT, he has time to explain his reasoning and he seems to genuinely love being a judge. Him once a week, Karen on Tuesday, Ian on Weds (preferably without a daft costume like last week's pumpkin) make it worth watching.

Though they still put in silly fillers. Len used to do his Lens thing on ITT as well, not on the results show. I increasingly get the impression he's just going through the motions.

I agree Fiderer I'm not sure why a programme that SHOULD appeal to everyone is being aimed at the idiots ;DCs are quite capable of watching intelligently aren't they? who can we talk to??

just seen on lorraine the lovely vincent is going to be sashaying into the jungle

Oh no! Vincent gave up Strictly for I'm a Celebrity? What a come down.

no he gave up strictly for his and flavias stage show I think he is on celeb to advertise it more than likely

When they announced they weren't going to be in it this year they cited 3 reasons - his new baby, which was due in the early weeks, her wedding, and their stage show. I'm a celeb presumably fits in with all his various commitments and it pays, so why not, I suppose. I have a friend who's done it. He doesn't regret it, although it was a really tough experience.

oh new baby and wedding aww didnt know that

tell me who your friend is

I didn't know he had a new baby on the way, or that Flavia was getting married. yes, who IS your friend?

Yep, Flavia's getting married to Jimi Mistry. They got engaged in January I think.

I'd like to know too

Just came across videos on You Tube of Ben doing the Rumba and Flavia with Louis in the Show Dance Final last year.
Also DWTS with Kellie and Derik Hough.(sp). Sorry can't do links.

Derek Hough trained with Lorna Lee for quite a while I believe, as well as attending Italian Conti. He's a very talented choreographer/dancer. His rumba with Nicole Shirtslinger was lovely,

Italia Conti

Derek is indeed a skilled and talented dancer and choreographer. Nicole has beautiful leg lines and presentation, but again rather balletic in her stepping leg and hip movements, especially in comparison with Joanna Leunis but also other profs.
Wish I could do "links".
Derek and Kellie danced a wonderful contemporary freestyle. < not that contemporary dance is ballroom/latin, but shows Derek's versatility>

Yep, Flavia's getting married to Jimi Mistry. They got engaged in January I think.

thats lovely i knew they were together but didnt realise they had got engaged

I agree about Joanna Leunis, I just love her style.

Do you mean the Jazz routine Derek did with Kellie, with the giant glowsticks?

What do they do with all th lovely costumes ?

Sell them thistlelicker, here's Abbey's dress from last week and here's the rest of them. They go back a few series too.

Quite a lot of them get sold, though they keep some and alter/dye them for other dances. I remember my teacher telling me she has seen Rachel Steven's beautiful Foxtrot dress on a teenage girl at a competition a few weeks after Rachel had worn it!

Ohhhhh I'm not surprised they hide prices

I think they used to put the prices (and measurements) up, I seem to remember the ballroom dresses being around the £400 mark, though the more blingy were more expensive.

Does anybody reckon abbey is more than pals with her pro??
