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?

It wouldn’t be the same if Neil wasn’t trying to turn his face inside out Elderflower ...

I get the feeling all this show was actually recorded as segments some time ago (I know all the group dances were pre-recorded) which would explain the lack of even a minimal audience and give the couples training time for the first dance as usual.

Anyone able to confirm this?

@Sunbird24

Is it just me or does Jamie Laing look rather like Judge Rinder...?
Ha ha ha. He does have a touch of it.

It’s so good to see Jamie back, he seems like a lovely guy and very entertaining

Redcrayons · 17/10/2020 20:27

I’m feeling quite emotional too. I even love Tess.

Have a lie down redcrayons

cathyandclare · 17/10/2020 20:28

JNT and HRVY could be great together.

AnneShirleysNewDress · 17/10/2020 20:29

@lettingthedaysgoby You're right. This was all filmed in advance.

BaronVonBiscuits!

I'd kind of forgotten about Janette, Karen and Dianne 😂

I like Mr Ex Girls Aloud, his enthusiasm is infectious.

augustusglupe · 17/10/2020 20:31

Yes Tess everyone's been tested twice...you don't have to keep saying it, I just want to enjoy the programme!!

Did HRVY have Crnvrs?

GrouchyKiwi · 17/10/2020 20:32

Hello! I have just been informed that this is on so I am now catching up. Huzzah for being able to fast forward.

SequinsandStiIettos · 17/10/2020 20:33

Did not expect that that pairing, thought he'd be with Dianne (although I'd have put him with Nancy). He didn't look that happy either even if she is small. So did he test positive in the interim and did Janette than have to isolate - when did they start training?

stillsomewhatsheldonesque · 17/10/2020 20:33

Wtaf has he got on?????

bluerad · 17/10/2020 20:33

Did Jacqui Smith have a political (expenses?) scandal?
Didn't her husband download porn films and she claimed for the cost?

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 17/10/2020 20:33

I thought he looked a bit like Scott Mills... Not the best dance role models. Grin

I'm sure it'll pass RedCrayons, just imagine her saying "your little face".

Joking aside, it's lovely to have it back.

stillsomewhatsheldonesque · 17/10/2020 20:33

Oh no no no.

Elderflower14 · 17/10/2020 20:35

Thought he might get Oti again....

They didn't give him Oti Confused

I was so sure they would

Mrsemcgregor · 17/10/2020 20:35

I don’t think BVB will last long.
