SCD 2014 #2: First boot, musicals week and beyond..

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

... well, depending upon how much we talk!

Carrying on from thread one.

It was announced (although I don't know where) that Ola is leaving after this series to have a baby, so there you go.

Although on Digital Spy they're also speculating - apparently James has tweeted that she's been feeling sick...

I noticed that too, maybe it was the style of the dress.

Can't warm to Alison at all. Hope she is in the bottom two tomorrow.

We do it about the celebs too - Holly one year, Natalie Gumede last year.

I think the only person who ever has been pregnant during a series is Emma Bunton (and she didn't know).

Nah, mark my words, she IS (possibly).
I am never wrong about these things. And if I am, I don't admit it.

I would like a big glittery poppy too.

Sunetra has a lovely top half - beautiful arm and hand movements. Also a good head, neck and upper back but her legs and footwork are letting her down.

That's her 2nd beautiful dress as loved her red one too. Real Ginger Rogers style.

Scott seems to stay in because all his radio fans vote for him. If it carries on, he really needs to tell them to stop because it's not fair on better dancers.

And finally we were right about Ola.
She's quitting to have a baby.

Is that official? How lovely although her husband is a bit of an arse
Does that mean Steve will have to get another partner?

I wondered why Alliona was in front position during the Claudia interviews.

Is Alliona the first choice substitute?

Hope not.
Can't stand the sulky woman.

I think she's leaving at the end of the series to start TTC rather than actually being pregnant isn't she?

Oh ok.
Sorry.

Then again no risk of sulky Alliona coming back.

Her website has her twitter feed saying she's not pregnant.

The reports about her leaving to have a baby come from the People and the Daily Mail, so probably best taken with a pinch of salt

I hope if and when Ola does become pregnant she gets peace. And I am annoyed at myself for speculating last night. It just feels like people in the public eye get no privacy at times. I know they put themselves out there but there are enough threads on here about not wanting MIL to tell about expectant grand children to all and sundry to show that people want and need privacy when pregnant.

I have also warmed to Natalie. She was lovely with Tim and seemed genuine. Aliona is a stroppy madam who never hides it when she isn't happy about her partner.

It's actually normal for a woman to have a rounded lower stomach. Look at any dressmakers mannequin, it's there.
My dance teacher, a size 6, has a non-flat lower stomach.
So IMO Ola's tummy is completely normal. It's just that her female dance colleagues might have bodies where their exercise has tightened those muscles loads. But ola is normal, not them!

Baby speculation aside I think Ola is pretty unhappy with the way her obnoxious charming husband was booted off strictly so if she's leaving that's more likely why.

And we're off!

Well that pro dance got top marks from both my DCs. Who was lasso man?

Hello hello.
I went out in actual RL last night so caught up with my extra hour this morning (thanks DS).
Missed you all!

My tuppence worth re: Ola is that I don't think she looks different. She's always been a little curvy bombshell I think compared to say Iveta or Camilla back in the day.

Poor Boy George

Goodness, Scott is safe? Only just turned on...
