My teacher spends half her time in Greece and was invited along to sit in the audience for the Greek version of SCD (also called DWTS), she said the "Pro's" were so bad she sometimes couldn't tell who was supposed to be the beginner and who the expert!

One of the male pros had a big club hand on his celebrity dancer's back the other week but I can't remember which one it was ... Craig's always such a stickler for these things that it surprises me when I see the professionals doing it.

Have people seen this about Natalie Gumede possibly having injured herself again? Quite interesting.

Saw bits of ITT tonight and Rachel's American smooth did not look good, but they tend to play it down until the performance. I hope so for Rachel's sake that on the night she will sparkle and amaze meHmm.

I remember Karen Hardy saying that in the ballroom the first and easiest technique to master is the "no gapping in hold" and that still too many are gapping. That is taught as the basics before heel leads she said.

I think I really mean for Pasha's sakeSmile

digerd · 31/10/2013 21:42

Hmm. Let's try that again. for Pasha's sake.

ppeatfruit · 01/11/2013 10:36

That's interesting Frank you don't ever hear them criticising the pros Shock but maybe they should (possibly behind the scenes to save their faces!).

ppeatfruit · 01/11/2013 10:43

Sorry I meant snowstorm.

Digerd The thing with the 'gapping' ;it must be difficult if you have a jealous partner who's watching you intently while dancing and thinking all those jealous thoughts Grin

digerd · 01/11/2013 15:31

Patrick is bad at this, but because he is so tall in comparison to his partner, I would think her hips must be lower than his? I think it must be a quite embarrassing for the celebs.

Male and female, especially with Anton < that rumour in his light coloured trousers> Grin
Good thing Christina is much shorter than Ben as otherwise her big boobies would be in his face when she leans backGrin. Same thing applies to Ben as with Patrick in the ballroom hold.Hmm

ppeatfruit · 01/11/2013 16:37

I'm surprised that the wooden male celebs like Dave and Ben are still in it TBH!

digerd · 01/11/2013 17:36

ppeat
You don't see the appeal of Ben, then?

Was disappointed in his quickstep, though his footwork was better than I feared it would be.
But Dave - no appeal for me at all in any of the dances, don't even find him funny.
He should have gone last week imo.
Looking forward to tomorrow's show.

FrankelInFoal · 01/11/2013 18:29

I think Ben is slowly improving, his Rumba was actually pretty good - the hips were stiff but he wasn't shy about showing feeling like some male slebs. He could do a Matt Dawson/Darren Gough.

ppeatfruit · 02/11/2013 15:02

Ben is cute I agree digerd although he will never be a natural on the dance floor, much cuter than Mark (there's too many wooden males still in it for my liking.) Especially when you think that Deborah dragon has gone she could just about dance fgs!!!

Hiya - may I join? Just settling in front of scd with a cuppa :)

CrazyOldCatLady · 02/11/2013 18:38

I've mince pies heating in the oven for afters, HellesBelles - have one for with your cuppa : )

MrsBramleyApple · 02/11/2013 18:39

Evening everyone! Sitting with the duvet over me and the dog harrumphing under the duvet! Getting ready for my Ben fix............

HellesBellesThinksSometimes · 02/11/2013 18:41

I love a mince pie COCL thank you :)

JaneEyresHeir · 02/11/2013 18:42

Ben's outfit the best so far Grin

digerd · 02/11/2013 18:42

Debs should not have gone as she was not the worst dancer, I agree. It was Dave's time < tearing my hair out at the viewers votes>.
Ben's rumba did show feeling and he is no actor. I really enjoyed it.< to be honest he took my breath awayBlush>

FushandChups · 02/11/2013 18:42

I know the props are shit but i do like the Halloween show [hgrin]

Oh no, Dave - just no!

MrsBramleyApple · 02/11/2013 18:43

My mum thinks Dave looks better than he ever has before!!! Wink
Ben with just a waistcoat on top!!! [thuddddddddddddd!] Grin

FushandChups · 02/11/2013 18:43

ah - no Halloween smiley things then Grin

Sophie looks amazing!

Sparklingbrook · 02/11/2013 18:44

Evening all. I am banished to the bedroom because of the footy Angry but at least nobody will talk all over it.
