Strictly Thread 8: Do the Carlton!!

[Gooseysgirl]

New thread for later xx

I think Alexandra might be friends of Neil and Katya anyway, she hosted an event at their studio over the summer and I'm sure they mentioned on love island she was a dancer

I had an utterly filthy dream about KFG and I can’t look at him in the same way now

That's really made me laugh

Urgh the my husband Neil comment on ITT was just cringey

Yes WereWolfcub! I love getting to know the pros better but that whole segment felt very forced!

I had an utterly filthy dream about KFG and I can’t look at him in the same way now

That had to be better than my dream about auditioning for Blue Peter with Hale & Pace.

I don’t think any of us will look at him in the same way now, Beetlebum

I feel there’s a thread in the making, things celebs have done to us in our dreams (not necessarily filthy, although clearly these are the ones we’re most interested in)

Not really that keen on the theme weeks, especially when most of the music has been done over n over, always seems to be a bit of a let down after all the hype.

Hahaha, came back to the thread to to see I have made a few people see Kevin differently sorry!

I’m intrigued for some of the Halloween dances. The song choices are uninspiring I agree looking forward to the Dr Who Tango for obvious reasons

Apparently Ashley and Giovanni are getting friendly.

That had to be better than my dream about auditioning for Blue Peter with Hale & Pace.

Where are Hale and Pace now?

Where are Hale and Pace now?

I don’t know, but I have vivid memories of three year old DD wandering across the stage in the middle of their set, having escaped from the crèche

I have just realised I shan't be watching tomorrow as I am in a show thingy. I shall be relying on you lot to keep me up to speed with pithy comments and details of the dancing.

NB I don't care about the Hallowe'en theme, in case you were wondering.

Charles and Karen and doing the jive to Time Warp which means he'll be doing the pelvic thrusts!

Now then - Saturday is here again!

This thread has been quiet this week Another day another chance.

Hope the SCD team are behaving.

I’m going to miss tonight’s show as I’m in Cyprus.

Halloween week is always my least favourite.

I’ve been watching SCD since the beginning, but since most days I can’t remember whether I’ve eaten breakfast or not, I can’t really remember much about the early years.

I am going out for dinner tonight instead of watching as I am not keen on Halloween week either. I will skim through it when I am home and look at the dances but miss the irritating VT bits.

Seannn was a grump on ITT yesterday: ‘I’m 32 so am over Halloween’ yeah you’re on the wrong show mate.

Smallest DD got up today and ran to the TV then moaned that the Halloween dancing wasn’t there yet!

I like the Halloween week. I think it would be better if some pros didn't insist on having a 'theme' every week and left it for the actual theme weeks. Some of my favourite dances are Halloween ones, like Louis Smith's Tango.

I'll be watching tonight 

I dislike the Halloween week.

Totally agree. Wish they'd take it back to just a dance - not always dancing with a theatrical story with a huge set and props! It takes away from the dancing.

Loving Kevin and Stacey! Hopefully Seannnnnn will go this weekend. Him and Katya on ITT was painful. Katya mentioning "my husband" made me wince.

I’m not a fan of Halloween in any case but I don’t mind the occasional theme week, if it is occasional. Though what with that, musicals and Blackpool the other weeks can be made to feel a bit like second-class fillers. Everything is about building up to the next theme week!

I am still campaigning (not actually) for a return to just two types of dance a show, so that we lay people can compare a few of the same type of dance.
