I'm not sure that a four week run of a musical in Wembley necessarily signals the end of Kevin's Strictly career.

GruffaIoCrumble · 11/12/2019 23:36

Well no, not seeing as he did a whole tour of Rock of Ages last year.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 12/12/2019 07:17

Why would it mean that he's leaving Strictly? All the pros pack other tours into the rest of the year because I'm not sure that Strictly pays well enough to be your sole annual income!

I have always liked Kevin , I like that he doesn't go in for the glamour boy look. He was lovely with Susan C. . Stace is a lucky woman , are they still together??? Xmas Grin

Oh I keep forgetting to ask if anyone heard Bizet and Carmen getting name checks at the begining of Carlos's display dance ? I came in just in time to see it but not to hear introductions.

Wow, Aljaz, Gorka and Giovanni on stage together? I missed a treat there. Let me know if that's likely again!

CoraPirbright · 12/12/2019 18:04

SO sad Chris has gone. Not the best dancer at all but he started out with zero experience and rather scared about the whole thing and made it to the semi-finals! Plus he really seems so terribly nice - a real gent. So gracious in his congratulations to Emma and Kelvin - literally the first thing out of his mouth when Tess-bot interviewed him.

Kelvin all the way for me. Love Oti, really dislike ringers as obvious as Karim and Emma has an air of desperation about her that I really cannot warm to.

Yes you did @MaggieFS ! It was fantastic, I'd love to see their show again.

LittleAndOften · 12/12/2019 18:35

I read that the pros earn £30k per series. That's not bad, I'd do it for that! Grin I imagine the other shows and tours they do the rest of the year mean that it all pays pretty well. The career of a dancer is short so I imagine they need to maximise their earnings while they can. I'd say good luck to KFG if he manages to transition to theatre and extend his performing career that way. His sister seems to have done that pretty successfully.

Bluffinwithmymuffin · 12/12/2019 19:29

I rewatched last Saturday’s semi final last night, with no distractions, and the standout thing for me was Emma and Anton’s cha cha. I didn’t like it much the first time, but my gawd, it was truly terrible. So truly terrible, words fail me - and that doesn’t happen very often.

Had they danced like that in Week 1 they’d surely have presented as one of the weaker couples... Craig would’ve scored them a 4... Bruno would’ve smirked sitting down... Shirley would’ve reeled off a long list of everything that was wrong....

I just can’t get my head around it.

Theromanempire · 12/12/2019 19:56

bluffin you are so right with your analysis - it was crap IMO. It honestly felt like the judges were watching something else!

Bluffinwithmymuffin · 12/12/2019 20:12

Theroman exactly. Craig was even smiling ffs Xmas Smile

Redcrayons · 12/12/2019 21:18

I'd do it for thirty quid! No idea where I read it but I think one of the pros (possibly JJ?) said they would get the same again for the tour.

Annasgirl · 13/12/2019 10:10

Did any of you see the post from Aljaz from the final rehearsals - he is standing with Mike, but in the background David and Nadia look very, very intimate.

Not sure if Aljaz was posting on purpose to show it or if it was an accident.

Sorry guys I am watching your election all morning but then went on the Fail to get a bit of light relief.

Encyclo · 13/12/2019 11:23

I saw that post too. They were extremely close. Are they both single? They weren't together long enough as dance partners for the strictly curse to kick in surely?

TitsInAbsentia · 13/12/2019 11:31

Ooooh where's the post please, I couldn't see anything on insta?

FilthyBiscuit · 13/12/2019 11:43

Just came by to see if anyone had posted about David and Nadia. I guess that's the bombshell that has been hinted at! Are they single?

lynsey91 · 13/12/2019 12:03

Naidya is engaged and I think David lives with someone. I kept thinking how close and cosy together they seemed while he was in it.

Would not surprise me at all if they were the couple hinted at in the papers and, of course, she is blonde hence the blonde bombshell!

Theromanempire · 13/12/2019 13:28

The photo is in the Daily Fail - if I saw my husband like that with someone else, I would not be happy. It is a very intimate embrace Confused

Annasgirl · 13/12/2019 15:11

@Theromanempire I thought the exact same thing. I would cry if that was my DH. And usually I am very "cool wife" in terms of men and women being friends but that looked way more than friends.

I think Aljaz did it on purpose - otherwise wow, what a coincidence.

@TitsInAbsentia - Daily Mail front page

TitsInAbsentia · 13/12/2019 15:47

OH MY GOSH! I def would not want to see a photo of my partner with anyone like that, and if there was something going on and I were Aljaz I'd be totally outing that shit!

Having said that have you seen her partner - he's rather wonderful looking, and he's a footballer, I just can't imagine DJ being that incredibly charismatic to steal her away from him...but stranger thingies have happened....

Theromanempire · 13/12/2019 16:02

Annasgirl yes I am quite relaxed about men and women but that embrace definitely crosses a line for me!

TitsinAbsentia I noticed that in the Daily Fail - her husband is certainly a looker so DJ is definitely a downgrade and certainly didn't appear to have such an amazing sparkling personality to compensate!

And as if Alijaz didn't know what he was doing Grin

TitsInAbsentia · 13/12/2019 18:21

Lots of commenters on that article trying to say it's her husband/fiance she is photographed with but those cheekbones look very DJ. Also seems odd that the original insta post has disappeared?

DoesntLeftoverTurkeySoupDragOn · 13/12/2019 18:37

DJ is 4" taller than her fiancé. The height difference is right for it to be him although I do think the face could be either.

TitsInAbsentia · 13/12/2019 18:40

Oh...also.....(I can't let it lie!) I've checked some old insta posts and DJ is wearing the same hat as the guy in the photo...could be coincidence....

Wolfcub · 13/12/2019 18:43

Check the ears,certain it's DJ but then I thought they had a definite spark in their dancing
