Strictly 2020, Bubbles and no Bruno?

[Mrsemcgregor]

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?

Caroline looks incredible!!

Waves at everyone!

Hi everyone. I don't know many of the celebs.
It's a weird atmosphere isn't it? Blooming covid! Feels a bit flat.

Expecting great things from Caroline- nice develope to start.

Caroline does look fabulous.

Yes - Corona has ruined everything

Still love Claud.

Hello everyone 

Hello everyone! Checking in!!

Does anyone know if there's going to be any ITT this year?!

Omg Caroline is going to be amazing!!! Hopefully like Debbie McGee

Looking forward to Claud's book coming soon.

Claudia is fab isn't she? So funny.
It'll be an odd one this year but I'm sure the dancing will make up for it.

I rather like the outfits on the celebs - long may it last!

I'm sure we'll be back to primary colours, tight cropped trousers for the men and Primark efforts in no time 😂

She does, doesn't she, Mrsemcgregor

Please gawd give Caroline someone hawt. She looks fabulous. Love the top half of her frock - not the bottom.

They seem to think they have to shout across the 2m distance.

I quite like these videos actually.

That’ll do!!!!

Yay, great choice for Caroline!

Got my Chablis. Usually love claudias outfit but hmmmm tonight. They keep reassuring us on the Covid security - enough already - we believe you!!!

I think it might be better with the restrictions. The panto atmosphere gets on my nerves sometimes. I'd enjoy the dances more without the over the top whooping and cheering, and I get really fed up of the booing whenever Craig (my favourite judge) makes a valid criticism (which will actually help the contestants to improve).

Brilliant!!! I was not expecting this at all - they will be great

So pleased for Caroline! Was worried she'd end up with Anton!

Is it just me? This is awful. So drawn out.

Oh they will be wonderful!! They will have so much fun and I have a feeling might be rather good!

Agree. Enough with the ‘we’ve done the Covid thing’ declarations.

I like this pairing of Johannes and Caroline.
Pleasantly surprised

I love Caroline's look. A real lesson in sophisticated, graceful, maturity.

Caroline is a bit of a ringer then.
