Fuzzy she trained as a ballet dancer, but presumably retired from that some 30 years ago so they've given her a pass to compete in this

Piggywaspushed · 30/09/2017 20:31

Ha! Shirley

I definitely can imagine Craig on MN saying RTFT dahling

Debbie's dance made me a little tearful. It was incredibly beautiful.

ShirleyPhallus · 30/09/2017 20:31

Well need a new thread soon, has anyone done it yet?

ellenanora5 · 30/09/2017 20:32

Aww that was gorgeous, I love Debbie and I'm delighted she has Giovanni, I wasn't sure at first but they are great together.

KangaMummy · 30/09/2017 20:32

Debbie had danced ballet when much younger before being Paul's assistant (up to 21 years old iirc) but she has done Pilates and yoga each day to keep fit and supple

TheSassyAssassin · 30/09/2017 20:32

Enjoyed that! Go Davood! Smile

GrouchyKiwi · 30/09/2017 20:33

Oh, that was very good too.

ThursdayLastWeek · 30/09/2017 20:33

Yikes. I like the quickstep. I like these two dancers.
I didn't like that. Cliche central.

FuzzyCustard · 30/09/2017 20:33

Hmmm...not sure about the undressing in that one!

MumBod · 30/09/2017 20:33

They're doin' it doin' it.

Piggywaspushed · 30/09/2017 20:34

I don't think Nadia liked that comment from Bruno...

ThursdayLastWeek · 30/09/2017 20:34

new thread!

YokoReturns · 30/09/2017 20:35

Debbie was a member of the Iranian National Ballet when she met Paul, I believe. She’s awesome.

Piggywaspushed · 30/09/2017 20:35

Oh, Shirley can be mean!! That's interesting.

ThursdayLastWeek · 30/09/2017 20:35

I started a quick emergency thread. Apologies for brain dead title.

Chipstick10 · 30/09/2017 20:36

I thought Debbie's dance was sheer elegance. Beautiful

Inkanta · 30/09/2017 20:36

A sexy couple!

GorgeousLadyOfWrangling · 30/09/2017 20:36

Shirl doing the full Len then. Preferred her when she did the jargon.

ShirleyPhallus · 30/09/2017 20:38

Alex better be good to go last

OddBoots · 30/09/2017 20:40

Debbie trained at the royal ballet school and was a soloist with the Iranian national ballet and according to Paul's autobiography she has also studied all forms of dance. Her training was 30 years ago though so she doesn't think it helps her now.

She does have more recent choreography experience as she wrote two ballets a few years ago, they were performed by her own ballet company 'Ballet Imaginaire'. She didn't dance with the company herself though.

EllaHen · 30/09/2017 20:40

Well done Alexandra hen!

Inkanta · 30/09/2017 20:40
Shock
MumBod · 30/09/2017 20:40

That was great.

ellenanora5 · 30/09/2017 20:42

I hate all the messing around at the start, get on with the dancing, he's able to dance so why waste time like that.

I remember Colin's quickstep from years ago and thinking it was brilliant, there has probably been better since but that always stuck with me.
