SCD '20 #2: First dances (and HRVY'S FRST DNC), but no hallowe'en

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

Last thread here.

I thought we might run out of space soon!

Anyone else especially those with bigger boobs wanting to know how Clara is keeping her boobs in check in that dress

Ringer/Ringah = somebody with significant previous dance experience slyly competing against absolute beginners and insisting they too are a beginner

McGuinness
Chambers
Van Outen

Who was Chambers?

@SimonJT

Thats was good, keep her in just to keep Aljaz on our screens.

You don't like aljaz by any chance do you?

I must say that I'm impressed with how they've managed to get this series done. It's far better than I thought it would be when they said they were going ahead.

Thanks x

Clara was fab.. does anyone else remember a quote from her ages ago about not being able to do strictly because of all her dance trophies ? Is she a ringer?

I remembered something about this but thought I was going mad and then when she was announced someone on the comments on the Radio 1 Facebook page mentioned it too..

Anyone else?!
I tried to look it up but didn't find anything else about it.

Anton looks better with the natural hair colour

Tom Smugface Chambers won with Camilla Dallerup. Was a highly trained dancer.

He looks miles better doesn't he!

@SoupDragon

Anton looks better with the natural hair colour

Older, but better!

Yay a dance reflecting the celebs background!!!

Massive faffing abaaaaht Anton and Jacqui

What's so great about Clara is that she doesn't have any sort of stage or drama school background, so she really is a non-dancer to start with.

I wonder if lockdown etc has meant that they actually have more time to train?

I've been quite impressed so far for the first week.

However, you will have to excuse me - I have a politician to abuse . . .

Bless her, she couldn't even really do the hat bit in time...

That was about what I thought it would be.

That was a quick dance!

Considering she has never danced before, Jacqui has done great! That was much better than I expected

Has Tess been riding today?

@Piggywaspushed

Who was Chambers?

Tom Chambers, won series 6. But I didn't think he was that much of a ringer. I thought he learned to tap dance by copying Fred Astaire videos in his garden shed or something?

Oh come on!

But then I am the resident Anton Hater

They should have binned him off years ago

Jacqui dances like I would . She needs to relax.

She did better than I thought she would, but there wasn’t much content

I forgot about him Eine!
