Strictly Come Dancing 2014

[FrankelandFilly]

Two celebs confirmed so far for the 2014 series:

Frankie from The Saturdays
Judy Murray (Andy's mum)

Not sure if they are deliberately only releasing one name at a time, but it can't be long before the big reveal.

So polish off your Cuban heels and slip into something tight and sparkly, it's almost here!

It not hit

Love Steve. So smiley and obviously such a hard worker. WHY are his arms covered up though?!

Watch the paws, Steve

And I hate how the fame school kids are always trying to convince us how nervous they are, how inexperienced they are, how it's just as hard for them.

We're not stupid y'kniw

I was disappointed with Pixie's dance as expected more from her.
Lovely upper body posture, arm movements and presentation but her knees were slightly bent on her leg extensions.

Thelma/chimp -found a website called spotted and sent in a request to see if they could identify it. actually looks wearable even if not super skinny .Bet it costs £££ tho

YY, Thursday

I bet the bottom of ola's dress was a nightmare to put on with all those tangly straps.

Frankie next, have high hope for this

This could be rock 'n' roll as easily as charleston. Enjoying it though

YY to Thursday too.

Hasn't Frankie been to masses of dance lessons as well as stage school? DVO mark II

I do like the glimpse of the Clifton appreciation society up on Claud 9 there.

I enjoyed it. But I don't love Frankie either.

I thought he nearly dropped her

Caroline Flack and 'Max' from EastEnders were great again tonight.

Have a soft spot for Tim from BH, he comes across as such a sweet old fashioned gentleman and his partner Natalie is just stunning.

The guy from Blue cracks me up....and not in a good way.

Me too polka, even though I know it to be true I can't quite picture Kevin and Karen together

Wikipedia says Frankie attended private dance lessons after school and went to stage school type thing after secondary. She was also in s club juniors and toured etc.

I actually loved her performance, but perhaps because she is already trained...

Frankie is a million times more likeable than DVO. Plus she's not with James.
She needs to have a duff couple of weeks though and cut out the 'oh it's so hard I don't think I can do it' crap.

Hmm, only 3 online votes each on bbc website this year. Wasn't it 5 last year?l

Kevin did nearly drop Frankie.
Was disappointed in Frankie's dancing tonight as seemed a bit laboured in her leg and foot work.
Beautiful face, though.

oh I didn't know about online votes!
I'm such an amateur

Yes, you are right Redcoats, Frankie is more likeable than DVO, and much more modest. DS (age 6) thinks she is wonderful. She still has a huge advantage with all her prior training though

Ireally can't take to Pixie and I don't know why ?

No one seems to know why mrsjayy

I was a wee bit behind with my tim comment I think he is quite sweet after I had seen his dance I love Natalie she is a great dancer, oh and ola jordan put some bloody clothes on

It was 5 last year. I just let DD have 2 thinking I would have the other 3 then could only vote once ??
