SCD#5!!!!

[HeadlessHorsemad]

Here!

I was drawn in by Janette's boobs on Saturday night when she was bouncing up the stairs and the boobs were completely motionless

A lot of the Dancers are small chested so I imagine the bodices are padded! hence the no bouncing!
I didn't know Janettes boobs had been boosted-thought she just had a lot of padding on some outfits.

I liked that intruder routine.

charlie Also the costumes have built in corsets\bras sometimes.

charlie I didn't not like it, I just wasn't expecting it. It works because Frankie (Malcolm in the middle) acts it so well. In real life he is v smiley so it was chilling. I always wanted a Halloween routine to Strange and Beautiful (Aqualung) with Brendan mesmerising a blonde maiden in a similar way to the start of Frankie's routine but going into ballroom. That they used the Chad version of DSSCTM and really brought out the stalker nature of the song, on primetime TV, was interesting. It got full points btw.

Hangry did you see Brendan dance the Paso with Sarah Manners in one if the early seasons? They danced to Evanescence's "Bring Me To Life", it was very full on but didn't score well as it was, well, very Brendan-centric

I can't seem to find the dance on You Tube at the moment.

It rings a bell but I don't remember the choreo, was it similar? Maybe Brenda has done an inception on me. I can picture him dancing as described. Probably as a vampire. It is really hard to find earlier dances, I wish the BBC would upload the lot from series one onwards.
It's me Glow btw under my latest incarnation I am Karen atm and thinking of FOOD the whole time.

SCD final is 16 Dec.

That's way too early - the Strictly final is supposed to be the last Saturday before Christmas. The whole point of it is to crack open the bevvies and declare Christmas started. Waaaaaah!

I agree mornington - they could have had it on Fri 22nd, that would have made it more Christmassy 🎄

Can I add that I will be pronouncing "Charleston" the Giovanni way from now on .

What's wrong with Saturday 23rd?! I'm going to be seeing star wars on the 16th!

The Charlie-ston. Love the way Giovanni pronounces it!

NO! Much too early. It needs to be the weekend of the 22nd as I have fond memories from nearly 4 years ago of the midwives saying "well you'd better come in then if your waters have broken" and me saying "fine, but is it ok if I just see who wins Strictly?" (Abby Clancy)

Nooo I have a Xmas meal with Friends on the 22nd so glad it's not on then.
I just don't want it to end!
However Masterchef the Professionals is back soon so...but that's a whole different thread.

The B word hasn't been mentioned yet are they not going this year ?

MrsJayy It has been mentioned on IT2 I think. Yes I reckon they're going.

Ah right I don't watch Itt2 I love blackpool it is Camptastic 😀

You'd also love IT2 , it's good, lots of info and interviews (with Craig yesterday) the costumes, make up\hair, choreography etc. it's worth recording if you're not in at 6.30. and 6 tonight . (though sometimes the longer one is not as good as the others )

Blackpool competitions are in two weeks I think.

Thank you cavemum

The B word hasn't been mentioned yet are they not going this year

I don't think anyone's allowed to say it until after Hallowe'en.

Did someone upthread say that Darren and Lilya were on ITT one day this week? If so, which day? I don't generally watch until nearer the end, but I'd love to see them again. Jill and Darren, Aled and Lilya, Brucie with his marbles intact, judges sat at a teeny table, no props or faffing abaaat, ah them's were the days.

B word just been mentioned on Strictly IT2.

Lisa O'Reilly looked fabulous btw.

Mornington Darren and Lilya were on Mon and Tues - they did choreography corner. Darren was unrecognisable!

Lisa looked half of her former self. I liked that 'panel' esp. the bloke ( he was fun, he said some naughty things ) Not sure about Martine's FL .

When will some of us (esp. the celebs) accept that we all grow older FGS.

Lisa had a TV documentary recently which showed her having skin removal surgery. Her change in attitude to her health was inspirational I thought.
