Sparkle Sparkle Strictly 17 Thread #4

[xsquared]

Shiny new thread.

That is a terrible wig on Karen, not even a tonal match

Also that dress Karen's wearing is one of my favourites ever on Strictly.

Please don't spoil the American Smooth for me.

Just . . . please don't.

She is doing a bit of an Ola Jordan here

I'm not keen on Karen's fluffy top half

Why was Shirley holding Bruno's hand? Was he trying to wk?

Oh, dear god, please - I've just had my dinner...

Karen looks AMAZING

@100PercentThatBitch That would be me!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 Thankyou.

That was lovely. I like a proper American Smooth.

“Good boy!” Is he a labrador

That and the Pamela/James ones are the only Rumbas I remember

Danny & Oti did a lovely rumba

This song is NOT from Top Hat. That was an appalling Sinatra-fied swing abomination.

That was very nice I thought.

He didn't do many steps in that dance

It was all Karen and him holding her

That was pretty good! For someone who claims he can't dance at all I think he's doing ok.

Yes! the proper Cheek to Cheek is different, the one they use in English Patient

Why is Anneka not wearing a full yellow jumpsuit? The black trousers don't fit for Kill Bill?

Wolfcub Yes, that wig is terrible.

@Temeraire agreed, that cover was a disaster even by Strictly standards

@Wolfcub know you mention it, and be more I look at it. Karen's wig isn't good, it's so obviously a wig

This song is NOT from Top Hat. That was an appalling Sinatra-fied swing abomination.

They should never have chosen that number, too much to live up to.

@Temeraire agreed, that cover was a disaster even by Strictly standards

I bloody knew they were going to butcher it.

That was MUCH better than I expected

“Good boy!” Is he a labrador

Not as easy to train and more slobbery, I suspect.

Oh I liked that! Well done Chris and well done Karen and well done production team for giving us an old school training vt.

What is on on Karen's head?

I thought that was quite nice.
