Strictly 2020, Bubbles and no Bruno?

I’m not sure if there is a thread already, please direct me to it if there is!

It’s summer which means its the time of year I start musing about which celebs might be up for the glitter ball trophy this year! I was a bit worried we might not be getting a series this year but a quick google reassured me plans are in place.

So it looks like they are hoping for bubbles between the stars and professionals families, possibly weekly CV testing and temp checks. Hair, make up and costume to be done with PPE. Sounds like they could put on a fairly similar show to normal. No audience though, which will be weird. And I guess no gathering of contestants for the scores, which will be weird. Will the whole thing lack atmosphere?

He's been re-christened Hrrrr-vy chez Moonbeams.

I think he's confused about which show he's going on GLTTRY, someone needs to tell him this is the one where you want to find a love of dancing and try out for a West End show.

I hv nvr hrd f HRVY. Wh s h?

Ruminating2020 · 04/09/2020 19:54

Has the date for the first show been announced yet?

Kent. You heard me quite clearly.

Heartyhooker · 05/09/2020 08:44

HRVY is straight off the front page of Lisa Simpson's Non threatening teenage boys magazine.

LadyGAgain · 05/09/2020 09:32

Full line up.

Strictly 2020, Bubbles and no Bruno?
Mrsjayy · 05/09/2020 12:30

Bless Harvey sorry Hrvy Grin

GIitterySequinBoobTube · 05/09/2020 16:07

It's not as good as DWTS line-up (which has Carole Baskin Grin) but the yanks ousted Tom in favour of Tyra as host so I hope they lose viewers in droves.
I only knew 3/12 above from name recognition only, recognised another facially and knew of two, half of them I couldn't have identified in a police line-up. But I didn't really know Ranj a couple of years back and loved him and Emma Viscountess last year so I am optimistic.
Currently rooting for JJ, Bill, Nicola and Caroline - but hoping the latter becomes a diva foot-stamping Lulu nightmare of Jan Ravens proportions. We haven't had one for a while!

ppeatfruit · 05/09/2020 16:36

Hearty Did you say H.... is 'non threatening' didn't a pp say he's after a one nighter with his professional (or whoever will have him) . (maybe he could be gay). (hoists bosom and looks over glasses.... 'I don't think that's the type we want on Strictly, far too overt' !)

GIitterySequinBoobTube · 05/09/2020 21:06

In fairness, that was me citing a red-top, they always quote at least one sleb welcoming the Glitterball curse/being up for it. Or in Hrvy's case he said he'd be down Winkhttps://www.list.co.uk/article/118911-hrvy-looking-for-love-on-strictly-come-dancing/
in the past we have had Ashley, Mollie, Gemma all quoted as looking for love. It is less likely 2020 - if Gio/Katya are the only ones single...not that that stopped tattle over Nadiya and Oti last year (both married but since when does that stop tabloids...or me)

Heartyhooker · 06/09/2020 08:55

To be fair, I was going by his looks not whatever he has said.

ppeatfruit · 06/09/2020 13:24

Oh dear Blush thanks Glittery me being a non reader of those type of papers. I do miss out !

He certainly doesn't look threatening Hearty ! I would say he's cute, but as they say you can't judge a book.....etc. We will have to see......!!

mogloveseggs · 06/09/2020 17:55

Hello can I join please?
Ds and I are really looking forward to a bit of glitzy strictly to cheer us up

GIitterySequinBoobTube · 06/09/2020 18:21

hearty Your Lisa Simpson comment made me laugh. He does look completely Ken and reminds me of AJ in that respect.

BooteusMaximus · 07/09/2020 04:20

Hrvy as Swyz (thanks to lavenderlady over at DS). This took 3 days training with two DWTS pros.

behind the scenes here... He's a sweetheart. I am pleasantly surprised. He also looks like a slightly older Chase Dreams Grin
BooteusMaximus · 07/09/2020 05:18
Bill!
BooteusMaximus · 07/09/2020 05:23

Maisie! 5.25 (solo 6.21)

GIitterySequinBoobTube · 08/09/2020 15:49

Boy can dance!

Okay, top 4 predictions: Maisie, HRVY, Nicola and JJ
Mrsjayy · 08/09/2020 16:47

Chase Dreams HA!

ppeatfruit · 09/09/2020 09:30

Has anyone else noticed that the Beeb are trailing a programme called "The Best of Strictly" Yaaay but no dates yet!!!!!

Figgygal · 09/09/2020 09:34

I’m looking forward to best of strictly more than the main show tbh

I didn’t get totally into it last year possibly because the year before had been so good

Already been revisiting old jay and aliona videos in preparation

ppeatfruit · 09/09/2020 09:38

I don't remember it last year, oh maybe I do (thinks)......

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 13/09/2020 14:58

I saw the trailer yesterday for the first time, I wish they'd hurry up with some more solid information!

ppeatfruit · 13/09/2020 15:01

Did anyone hear Arlene on R2 today she said that Katya is going to be partnering the girl boxer Nicola? !!!! Great, I hope K will have met her match!!!! Grin

Pearsapiece · 13/09/2020 15:02

I've just jumped ahead on the TV guide after a hint from the BBC voice over last night. Next Saturday at 7(ish) begins the best of strictly shows, a look back over the best of the movies weeks! I'm so excited.. 1 hr 10 mins of strictly goodness! And from their Instagram appeals for participants, it seems they are doing 3 of these best of strictly shows which will then be followed by the main series for this year! So not long now. Less than a week until the strictly fun begins Grin
