Craig in drag is everything!

Re the romping. Saw a thing today about Vernon Kaye being asked what's going on with him and Tess as they've not been seen together for a few months. She may be romping. Or not. The fact that the rompers are not being named suggests extra marital type shenanigans.

I saw that Ravenesque.

I wonder if I am sniffing in the right direction after all ... Wink

EnidButton · 28/11/2019 03:18

I've got it! It's Tess and Sooty.

NumbersStation · 28/11/2019 04:40

@EnidButton

At last - someone agrees Wink

I called this on the sooty strap scd thread. Grin

I bet he got right up her glove...

Going back to the discussion a bit further back about how long they have been doing Couple’s Choice: I think it was last year when Giovanni and Faye did a fab Theatre/Jazz number. That was my favourite of the genre - not keen on the wafty ones.

Horsemad · 28/11/2019 07:44

Yep, Faye's CC was brilliant, as was Charles' with Karen last year.

Costacoffeeplease · 28/11/2019 08:14

Matthew and Nicole choreographed one of my favourite ever pro group dances back in the day. It was a jive to Rebel Yell and I still Re watch it now on YouTube

Encyclo · 28/11/2019 08:14

Gio and Faye's was incredible. Perfectly in sync from start to finish. I often rewatch it.

Karen and Charles were great too, especially as they were stuck in the 25 zone for weeks before that dance. It was such a revelation. I thought Charles was great, but he never clicked with the judges for some reason

Costacoffeeplease · 28/11/2019 08:15

Neil is definitely camp, although I would bet on gay

ValancyRedfern · 28/11/2019 09:44

I always assumed Neil was gay, that's why I don't get all these rumours about him and Alex.

lynsey91 · 28/11/2019 13:21

@RageAgainstTheVendingMachine thank you for that. I will sit down one afternoon and watch as many videos as there are (or I have time for).

I would love to be able to watch all the old series of Strictly. I didn't start watching until series 6. I really did not think it would be my cup of tea as I was never interested in Come Dancing. Work colleagues kept talking about it and so I starting watching series 6 just to see what the fuss was about and fell in love with it. It's one of my favourite programmes and I could kick myself for not watching from the start.

ValancyRedfern · 28/11/2019 13:57

They must have so much amazing archive footage I wish they would do something with it. I'd love a countdown of the top 100 dances!

EnidButton · 28/11/2019 14:33

Grin I missed that Numbers.

Faye's CC was one of my favourite ever dances. It's perfect.

I'd love to watch previous series. I didn't watch for years because I couldn't stand Bruce F. More fool me, I didn't know what I was missing! The YouTube uploads are good but don't have the judges comments on them which is a shame.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 28/11/2019 17:27

I thought both Neil and Alex were gay . . . is this not right?

Of course, there are many precedents for "lavender marriages" as I understand it . . .

I've got it! It's Tess and Sooty.

Sooty could have his pick of women - do you really think he'd settle for some "Brucie Babe" who can only afford half a dress and has fewer facial expressions than he does?

xsquared · 28/11/2019 17:48

Do we have any confirmation that Neil is gay or do people assume he is because of his campness?

I never saw any couply chemistry between him and Katya but he clearly cares for her a great deal, even now. Even with the kiss scandal, he was defending her against trolls on his social media.

The Daily Star/Sun/Mirror etc run this story every year, and I personally don't think there is a secret couple at all.

SoupDragon · 28/11/2019 18:07

No, there isn't any confirmation at all. Of either Neil or Alex's sexuality.

The speculation is a bit distasteful!

FuzzyPuffling · 28/11/2019 18:11

Ha ha ha ha, so very true.

LittleAndOften · 28/11/2019 18:14

I can't imagine Neil would have any problem coming out in the dance world, so I doubt very much that his marriage was a sham. I don't equate gay with camp, they're not the same thing at all. My brother is gay but definitely not camp, and I know plenty of straight people who are camp but not gay. I don't like speculating on people's sexuality, if they want us to know, they'll tell us.

NumbersStation · 28/11/2019 19:37

Half a dress is appealing to Sooty. Given that he goes about in the nuddy himself, think of all the money they’ll save on clothes.

And Sooty really isn’t arsed about expressions - apart from one like this Shock

For reasons I’d much rather not go into....Grin

FuzzyPuffling · 28/11/2019 19:59

Sooty may be a nudist but Little Cousin Scampi is obliged to wear a school cap. All sorts of wrong.

Wheresthebeach · 28/11/2019 21:32

I'm surprised that there hasn't been further leaks about the mystery couple...they must have battened down the hatches!

NumbersStation · 28/11/2019 22:04

@FuzzyPuffling. Grin

Indeed.

But wait til sooty sidles into the bedroom wearing the straw boater, argyle socks and suspenders.

Brace yourself you bombshellGrin

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 28/11/2019 22:26

I don't think Anton is going to be as handsome as a young James Fox sadly.

Yes I thought this.. but I seem to recall there were similar vague rumours of romping around the time Gorka / Gemma got together, and then it was a while before it was known who it was..

In the article I read the other day, it said "emphasis on appeared", which made me wonder if it's someone who appeared on the show, as in, already left..
