Strictly Come Dancing Thread #2: Bring on the Strictly Curse!

[MozzieMagnet]

Morning
@x-squared hope it's okay to follow in your lovely footsteps and put out a second thread even with 13 days left to go. If there is another one up already and I am being blind, please link to it.

*Love it, so Charles is now officially Btech Idris, and Kevin (from Grimsby) is officially Gavin and Stacey.

Do we any other ‘official’ mn abbreviation for this year’s contingent?*

Btech Idris
Gavin and Stacey
MWMOB (most worse member of Blue) Lee Rayn (I still cannot believe he inflicted Rayn Ryan, sorry, Rayn Lee Amethyst Ryan on his son) maybe we should just call him Eel Fromblue yes Lee love we know it's an anagram
Pashley mk II (Kim and Pash being the original?)

Highlights from other fora include
Graemey Cricket
Not Trinny
Joetube

and Dr Ranj is quite liking his Miss Ranjie moniker according to his instagram

As for the new pros my other half made various lube comments whereas Grazziano is Ross from Friends if he carries on with the oil.

Move over Shimmy Jimmy Jordan as Brenda states the obvious here but Kate S with Kev would have been a disaster height wise, c'mon Cole you had too much sangria.

Love this song!!

Willing this to go well for Katie.

@ThursdayLastWeek I follow him & Gemma too. What they do in the gym is incredible, they seem like such a lovely couple, she's starting to take Spanish lessons now too.

Tess has lost a lot of weight!

She's very matter-of-fact about her injuries. Comments on them but doesn't milk the topic.

C'mon Katie

Come on Katie!!!

Ah sod it. How often am I going to cry at Katie.

Joining in late. I predicted that Dr Ranj was going to be a bit shit but I’m delighted to be wrong. He seems lovely, and we could do with a really good gay contestant as opposed to a comedy number (so sad about Will Young having to leave). He could do with dropping a couple of inches on his waist though, which a few more weeks in the competition will fix.

Really hope Katie does well, I like Gorka as well he always comes across so well.

She looks like she had a little stumble then

I agree Schaden, I like that about her.

On a different topic - what is the singer doing?! She's messing up the timings of that song and it's pissing me off!

She’s not naturally graceful, bless her. Let’s see how the judges react.

I agree coveting

Dr Ranj? GAY?

Katie bless her, a bit tottery. I'll admit I didn't know she'd lost the sight in her left eye as part of her injuries.

Ah Gorka brought her back. He looked her right in the eye and she got back on track. He's a sweetie.

Is it because it’s not normally a waltz yawning?

That was lovely!!

If I was Katie’s Mum I’d be weeping buckets

I saw that too Fuzzy and fell a little more in love with him for it!

She was stiff and expressionless and it looked like Gorka had to drag her in the right direction a couple of times, but Gorka was lovely and it could've been worse.

I wished Katie well but I think she’s actually a worse dancer than Susannah.

Lovely dance from Katie as well.

There are a lot of strong contenders this year by the looks of it. Could be a brilliant competition.

Gorkas so lovely (little bit in love with him), I think they're going to be a great pairing.
