SCD19#2 — Last Partnerships Formed, Training Begins and the First Live Show

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

First thread here.

I already feel disappointed

Less sitting more dancing please

Yes, these are like the awkward segments on ITT! It might've been better with Rylan leading the interviews

The old footage is quite sweet.

I'd like to see longer segments of their young adult competition routines! I know some are probably on YouTube but the quality is better

This is really not BBC Saturday Prime Time Quality

Mmm Whoever could have doubted NJ's sexuality 🤔

Omg Kevin the Gothic scarecrow 😂

Oh I missed that bit, what did NJ say? Did he come out?!

Gareth, Neil asked AJ whether he had a poster of him on his wall. To be honest, it did look as if he was flirting with AJ.

He was talking about his dressmaking experience

Haha okay!

Ha. Proof that they already know on the night though

I've already forgotten half the contestants from last year!

I do not like Neil. I didn't like him before and now I really do not like him. How did he ever get onto the show? I have loved watching the footage when they were kids though (actually, Neil was much more bearable when he was younger - maybe the beard is not doing him any favours but won't change his personality)

I'm a bit bored...

I don't like Neil or Anton, but KKFG is coming across quite well.

Which is horrifying.

Lauren's hair looks as if it's glowing.

It is beyond dull

I'm actually going back to Netflix - I doubt I'll miss anything good it's VERY sanitised.

It's funny to hear the slebs talk about being nervous, when they are so much in the public eye in their day jobs.

But do tell if I do

I used to like KFG when he was new on the Strictly scene. For about 5 minutes before he started going hyper with Susanna 😂

I'm not sensing a lot of chemistry between the pros. I wonder if there's some bitchiness that goes on behind the scenes

Agreed it is dull!

I think this is one of those rare instances where seeing what goes on behind the scenes is spoiling it for me.

I am really enjoying it - finding out what goes on behind the scenes is great!

Ed doing Gangnam Style remains one of my favourite dances. It never fails to cheer me up 😂

Neil got on the show as he has the highest credentials of anyone.
