Calling all ex XF posters ! New Saturday night rosh by way of a Dancing competition!

[Roussette]

Will anyone be watching this new Dance programme on BBC1 on Saturday evenings?!

The judges (although they call them Dance Tutors or something very silly) are the bloke from Glee, frozen-face Cheryl and Oti from Strictly (who I love!)

Hoping @Raahh is around and all the XF gang!

I will deffo be watching particularly as back in the day, I used to work for ITV and used to go round my area judging Disco Dancing competitions. Those were the days, it's over 30 years ago!

Isn't there some "Terry and June" on the other side that I could watch for preference? Anything, anything-

It is a shit show hybrid of all Syco productions and I am amazed the beeb went with it tbh. The receptionist bit is piss poor. Oti it's a huge mistake love

And now - contempowaft...

anaesthetic. Cheers catfleas

I used to dance like that when I was about 11 ! He was shit and it’s ridiculous that a. Trained dancer didn’t get picked. This young girl is very good.

My DH has just said exactly the same thing behold. (You're not my DH in disguise are you?)

BOO! BEHIND YOU! No Fuzzy, I am female last time I looked (Mozzie on the Strictly threads) Anyone know what the contempowaft music was?

To be fair I think the judges are well chosen, Cheryl’s first love is dancing, Matthew from Glee is Mr Broadway, and we all know about Oti. But the format is dreadful, all the worst bits of every Syco production rolled into one.

Also, there are quite a lot of very young girls competing. Not too comfy with that.

5% dancing, 95% crap filling.

I just started watching it from the start on catch up, but my telly rebelled after 10 mins and froze. Watching live now. There doesn't seem to be much dancing, but lots of twatting about. I don't care about backstories and seeing people sat in reception.

Bloody hell this audience is easily pleased!

I'm going to catch up with this tomorrow. Sorry I'm a traitor watching the Voice!
Did turn over in the break and saw the guy who nearly passed out after meeting Shezza

I do hope the producers are watching this thread destruction of their carefully crafted show

And I'm a little bit in love with Oti.

I sometimes dream I have her body.
Then I wake up

We’ve turned over to The voice As DH isn’tbkeen on dance.

Love the dancing, but hate all the preamble.

Producers - if you are reading this. Can you re-edit the show so we have more acne and less faff.

Thought the judges were okay and the receptionist friendly, but did we really need to see all that interaction.

This just feels wrong.

Acne?! Dance!

Just watching it on catch up. Why is Cheryl a judge?

I think this will go OK for Andrew. Love his relationship with his Mum.

Bags of personality. He’s an Oti candidate for sure!

No don't like it, don't think I'll bother with it again

I'm looking forward to dancing on ice tomorrow, that's always a car crash, I suppose Jordan won't be doing the chatty bits if he's on this now

I'm crying 😪
It might be the lack of alcohol in dry January

Yeah Andrew got me too 😭 he was just so joyful

Does anyone know who the two people are in the audition room when the auditionees are dancing? I know Andrews mum was there (understandably) but the same two people were there for other auditions. Sitting behind a table.

Were they ever explained?!

no ellenora the chatty bits are being done by a previous contestant Cem somebody iirc
Well, that was a lot of a letdown.

Well that all came to an abrupt end didn’t it? What a bleedin’ shambles.
