Now you're going to have to enter your licence number to use iplayer they should introduce a cut price ExPat's Licence.

CalmanOnSpeeddial · 18/09/2017 13:46

Rev Richard and Reddo dancing for the congregation at Dunedin church - Rev in his cassock!

They do look to be having so much fun.

MrsJamin · 19/09/2017 07:11

Johnnie is looking good in the ballroom!

I use google safari soup We have tried!

soupforbrains · 19/09/2017 10:19

Ah, you're on an iPad?

I don't know if you can do the same on google safari. But on google chrome you can install an add-on Called hula. It then can act as a proxy server for any country in the world.

ppeatfruit · 19/09/2017 12:35

Thanks very much soup I'm more on my apple laptop than my iPad which I find very tricky to use (apart from photos) tbh. I'll tell dh [grin.]

RTKM · 19/09/2017 14:24

Sooooo excited GlitterballGlitterballGlitterballGlitterballGlitterballGlitterball

soupforbrains · 19/09/2017 20:31

Not long to go now! I'm very excited too.

I will do some updated graphs on Friday and then we'll have lift off on Saturday. I think then I'll do graph updates on Mondays so we can see the impact of the weekends dances.

Eeee I just want it to be on already.

ppeatfruit · 20/09/2017 09:36

Thanks cave

I'm so in love wth Oti.. her figure is just sensational and I swear her legs are 5 ft long! Ahem... anyway...

The interviews are good I agree with the best Ines you suggested.

GorgeousLadyOfWrangling · 20/09/2017 22:44

Flowers thanks cave I really enjoyed the interviews. I know old Tony Beak gets a lot of stick but I think if the natural chemistry between him and Ruth comes across on screen they'll do well.
Top 4 popularity wise pre dancing on that poll 1. Susan 2. Ruth 3. Gemma 4. Jonnie
Will be really interesting how the people's votes and the judges' faves (Aston, Alex, Mollie) affect the scoreboard this year.

TheSassyAssassin · 21/09/2017 08:15

Shirley Ballas about to be interviewed on Radio 2....

ppeatfruit · 21/09/2017 08:47

Thanks The Sassy I might have just missed it, they're talking about a county show now!

CaveMum · 21/09/2017 12:33

Yes Shirley was on at 8.15 for those who want to listen on catch-up. She came across well I thought.
