My dog wallowed in a dead seal in the summer. It stank beyond belief. Only washing up liquid cut through the greasy horror! Dog was not impressed at having to be showered for about 30 minutes but she smelled lemon fresh by the end!

I have a shelf of puffins....

Semi-Finals are approaching... SCD Thread 9!

scary I am very jealous.

Joe should be safe next week else they’ll be no men left. Alexandra might be safe at the top next week as two dances should spread the leaderboard out more.

ManicUnicorn · 03/12/2017 21:01

A lot of people on the Strictly FB page have been speculating that Gorka either dislikes or is getting irritated with Alexandra. She's always been a very marmite character going back to her time on the X Factor, and even then there were rumours in the press that the other contestants didn't like her.

I don't know. I want to like her, I can see she is very good but I just can't take to her for whatever reason.

Penguin Envy is an ugly emotion Fuzzy

Freud wrote entire books about it. It's nearly as bad as Pianist Envy.

TheSassyAssassin · 03/12/2017 21:05

Is it as bad as Puffin envy though??? Xmas Grin

CeeBeeBee · 03/12/2017 21:06

Manic, I wouldn’t take FB comments seriously, as it’s all speculation as you say. The comments on FB are vile too.

deste · 03/12/2017 21:07

Ours has done the seal thing also. We could smell him from 20 yards away.

FuzzyCustard · 03/12/2017 21:07

Oh no, schaden that would be awful...except I have Puffin-envy so everything is ok.

TheSassyAssassin · 03/12/2017 21:10

Fuzzy see above ^ it's far far far worse Xmas Shock [santa]

TheDrsDocMartens · 03/12/2017 21:14

The balcony weren’t very enthusiastic to A&G.

FuzzyCustard · 03/12/2017 21:18

Eeek.

ChoccyJules · 03/12/2017 21:48

I was surprised that Davood was in the DO, which put paid to my theory that they would be, ahem, tinkering with the results to make sure the final had two men and two women in.
We decided that Tess either needs the loo or wants to play outside (littlest has to wear a band for these things in Reception class).
Mollie next out please. Joe to win. Everything crossed (he'll need it).

TheSassyAssassin · 03/12/2017 21:51

Fuzzy if you're in therapy for all things bird maybe FK needs to come stay with Aunty Sassy for a while...just sayin' Xmas Wink

RosemaryHoight · 03/12/2017 22:10

I was surprised AB was in the dance off. It must be horrible to think that with top scores that hardly anybody has voted for you. Maybe this will prompt her fan base to vote for her now.

I'm not so annoyed with the scores she gets as I was by Louise last year. I remember I got really ranty about Louise.

2rebecca · 03/12/2017 22:14

Agree re Tess's dress. it had a definite "I'm in the white team" look to it. They should all be dressed by Darcy.

I'm sad Davood has gone, would have voted for him if I'd been around at the time. I won't vote for Alexandra or Debbie as they've been getting near top marks from the beginning and I want it to be a learn to dance competition, not a show off how well you can already dance competition.

2rebecca · 03/12/2017 22:14

I want to be dressed by Darcy too.

IhaveChillyToes · 03/12/2017 22:27

Darcy wears such incredible high heels

Braceface · 03/12/2017 22:50

Why have Darcey and Shirley always got their arms round each other? It looks incredibly fake.

CassandraCross · 03/12/2017 23:10

Gemma must have one hell of a fan base, I was sure she would be in the dance off. Neither her nor Joe have been in the Dance Off have they?

I thought Davood did his AT much better in the dance off, I think he probably ended up there as people compared it to Debbie's last week.

I was surprised AB ended up in the dance off, it seems she is just not getting the public vote it could be through apathy because they think she is safe at the top or because they don't like her or the dance or more likely a mix of all three.

Raisedbyguineapigs · 03/12/2017 23:32

I think Darcy and Shirley are trying to show that two women can be in the same room as each other without scratching beach others eyes out, despite what the tabloids think. I do agree they seem to be drawing attention to it instead of just carrying on as normal.

MWestie · 03/12/2017 23:36

Usually a lurker here but was lucky enough to see the recording on Saturday. Alexandra was upset after being announced in the dance off and particularly after Craig mentioned her mum. So much so that when I watched the results show at home tonight I saw they had edited that segment.

I thought she did fantastically well to come out in the dance off and perform her routine after that.

CeeBeeBee · 03/12/2017 23:53

Thank you MWestie. I also thought she looked upset rather than pretending that she was going to lose to Davood. I guess she’s get even more criticism if people saw the bit that had been edited out.

Anyway, I thought Davood took it really well and AB did genuinely seem to be supportive of him too.

EvilRingahBitch · 04/12/2017 06:17

I think Craig just made a dreadful error of judgement mentioning Alexandra’s mum. I’m sure he meant well but simply didn’t think.
