I know it's a bit early for this but .. STRICTLY thread [glitterball]

Okay, I wouldn't normally start an SCD thread this early but Kevin's left and it has just been announced that AJ will leave. This after the BBC announced the returning pros for next season.

That means if Graziano and Gorka have a partner this year, then there will be no male back up pros. I still think Michael from TGD might get asked to join.

What do fellow SCD fans think?

I think Curtis Will be joining. Zzzz

Samcro · 26/03/2020 15:52

i can't see it happening this year.
but did read somewhere that Oti's dh had joined

Horehound · 26/03/2020 16:14

I'm not a fan of AJ and I'm not a fan of Curtis so I hope they don't just replace AJ with Curtis because he is his brother and it would be easy.

iklboo · 26/03/2020 16:18

Apparently he's going into presenting with Curtis so they're not swapping.

Samcro · 26/03/2020 16:19

for some reason Curtis really annoys me

Glenthebattleostrich · 26/03/2020 16:20

I'd love Oti's husband to join. I've been doing their daily dance class with DD and he is very funny. They are a gorgeous couple.

I think Marius would be an asset if he joined. I follow Oti on Instagram and it's lovely that she is doing classes over social media for children and adults.

A Strictly thread Glitterball This is exactly easy I need today.

Not surprised about KFG, he's got theatre stuff going on (well had)
Surprised at AJ though especially as he'd already been annnounced. Wonder what him a his bro have got lined up? I don't know Curtis so have no opinion on him. Isn't he on the Irish version?

IHaveBrilloHair · 26/03/2020 18:45

AJ is my favourite, I'll miss him so much.

MrsJamin · 26/03/2020 20:27

I think AJ and curtis have just been offered a big job together and he couldn't turn it down, so has had to ditch strictly. I'm ok with that. I'd love to see Michael or Marius as a strictly pro.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 27/03/2020 07:19

I so won't miss AJ but surprised myself when I realised how much I'd miss Kevin.

Maybe Artem or Gleb will come back Grin

CanIHaveAPenguinPlease · 27/03/2020 07:23

Happy days. A Glitterball thread.

KFG grew on me. Not that keen on AJ so not fussed.

Would be great to have Marius.

Doilooklikeatourist · 27/03/2020 07:25

Ooooh Artem ...
I was talking to my sister about Strictly just the other day , both of us want it to be on every week , but I know that’s not possible
I’d really like Micheal and Jowita to join as pros , I liked them on TGD
Otis husband would be good too
Can they just reshow previous years to get us through til September , I’d love to see Vincent and Flavia again

Elephantonascooter · 27/03/2020 07:28

I've found my people!
I found myself seriously worrying that it might be cancelled this year if this goes on for a long time. With all the sport and festivals cancelled, cancelling strictly would write my year off.

Not sad to see AJ go, I find the Pritchard brothers really annoying. They'd make great kids TV presenters though.
Sad to see Kev go but not surprised with all the 'scandal' surrounding him.
I hope Gorka has a celeb this year, if he wants one. But I can't stand gratziarno so hoping for a new male pro. Can't wait for johannes dose. I feel I need a dose of johannes now actually!

Abelino · 27/03/2020 07:30

I do think it's likely that AJ and Curtis have been offered something together. Hopefully it works out for them as they seem like nice lads, but I'd be surprised if they find work that is as high profile and secure as Strictly.

I wonder if they'll get someone new in to replace him, or just give Gorka and Graziano celebrities.

mimimonster123 · 27/03/2020 07:49

Not Kevin?? Nooooooo
He's my fav 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

MrsJamin · 27/03/2020 10:37

Kevin definitely grew on me. I like him and Karen a lot more now they are not together, I think they are a lot happier in their private lives which really shows. Kev wants to follow his sister Joanne into musicals I think, as he can sing well.
I too am really worried it could be cancelled this year. It makes my whole autumn, sadly!

FrankieKnuckles · 27/03/2020 12:52

AJ is no loss for me but gutted about Kevin. He was a brilliant dancer. Happy for Gorka to have more airtime Smile

MrsJamin · 27/03/2020 12:54

Gorka is a lovely guy with a lot more personality than Graziano - I hope Gorka will have a partner too next series.

IHaveBrilloHair · 27/03/2020 13:10

It makes my Autumn, because AJ.

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 27/03/2020 16:59

Well, it'll make my autumn because no more AJ Grin

IHaveBrilloHair · 27/03/2020 17:10

You meaner!

Redcrayons · 27/03/2020 19:16

I’d love it if Gorka was a proper pro again, he’s small but perfectly formed. I never warmed to Grazaino, but he didn’t get a fair go.

Dare we dream that Artem and Gleb will make a comeback? In my fantasy strictly when I’m famous, I’d have a Artem or Pasha or Alijaz or Johannes or Ian Waite

MrsJamin · 28/03/2020 10:41

Gorka should have a partner now AJ has gone because they were on the shorter end of the scale.

AllTheseThingsThatIHaveNotDone · 28/03/2020 23:30

Never too early for a Glitterball thread.
I think it's good actually - Graz gets a second chance, Gorks gets a partner too, Neil and Jojo get to stay as last year did so well. Leaving Nancy and Marius as the spares. They didn't used to have more than one a piece.
Maybe they could add Josh Keefe from tour(?)and DWTSOz to the troupe too - he is awesome.
