SCD '20 #6: Have no fear, Judge Anton's here!

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

I'm a bit worried we'll run out the other thread tonight, and it'll be too fast-paced for me to get a new one going during the show, so I'm getting prepared early!

Feel free to place mark or watch this thread, but head back to the previous thread for the moment, and we can move across later.

Hadn’t thought about SCD for the public, but I did think it might be good to have three regular judges, all experts, and pop in a different guest judge every week in the fourth slot. Perhaps they could be people with some sort of background in dance, even if they were just mad enthusiasts (like a lot of people on this thread...)
It would give another perspective and liven it up a bit, don’t you think?

@SoupDragon

I really want to be able to do that "lock step" thing so I can use it to cross my kitchen at all times. That or moonwalking.

@SoupDragon lock step is very simple, it’s one of the basic steps. I was a bit at Craig gushing over Maisie’s considering it’s literally a beginner level step so darn right she should do a decent one!

Plenty of YouTube tutorials if you fancy a crack

@Maireas

Oh Lord, they'd all have a tear jerking back story, wouldn't they? Featuring Nans/disability/triumph against odds etc

I would wheel on my smallest spaniel.

DOGWARZ would be MINE!

You. Would. Win.

I LOVE Zoe's dress on ITT tonight. Any ideas where its from?
Although I guess her budget is a bit different from mine!

I'm going on SCD Public with a BASKET OF KITTENS! (Winner winner...)

They should do that Russian dance move for the pro challenge

It's the hip bit I think I'd struggle with - I don't think mine move like that. I'm also not convinced my knees wouldn't lock permanently 😂

Is that Jarvis or Joe, Soupy?

I see your BASKET OF KITTENS and raise you BUNNIES! . . . with little hats on

(Don't know where I'll get them, but I will)

Either... Or slightly aromatic dog... I'm prepared to go with whatever works.

And I'm prepared to make him a little felted hat out of his own shed fur.

Pfft! I could knit an entire pack of spanners out of Phoebe's shed fur.

And she has beautiful eyes . . . like Audrey Hepburn.

BTW - Has anyone posted Week 5's music yet?

I've just got this list

Caroline Quentin and Johannes Radebe, Cha Cha to Rescue Me by Fontella Bass

Clara Amfo and Aljaz Škorjanec, Samba to That’s The Way I Like It by KC And The Sunshine Band

Maisie Smith and Gorka Marquez, Salsa to Better When I’m Dancing by Meghan Trainor

Ranvir Singh and Giovanni Pernice, Argentine Tango to When Doves Cry by Prince

Bill Bailey and Oti Mabuse, American Smooth to I’ve Got You Under My Skin by Frank Sinatra

HRVY and Janette Manrara, Tango to Golden by Harry Styles

Jamie Laing and Karen Hauer, Couple’s Choice to Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now) by C+C Music Factory

JJ Chalmers and Amy Dowden, Quickstep to For Once In My Life by Stevie Wonder

@SoupDragon, you win - it's the hat

I love Bill's song this week! I hope Maisie's salsa is good.

Fuzzy’s basket of kittens has won my vote!

I think When Doves Cry was also used for Rachel and Vincent’s AT & it was definitely used for Jay and Aliona’s tango so a lot to live up to.

Yuk yuk yuk at Masies Song.
Funny how they throw in some decent tunes and the rest are pretty awful.

I'm not keen on The American Smooth dances.
Harry Styles for a Tango hmmm

I LOVE Zoe's dress on ITT tonight. Any ideas where its from?

It's Zara! She usually posts pics on her insta and tags the makes

I'm sure they did a "Peoples Strictly" once, maybe for CiN or Comic Relief. Heavy on the tear jerking stories if they haven't I have had a very vivid dream.

@DigOutThoseLemonHandWipes I'm also sure I remember that..

I knew I didn't dream it.

Caroline Quentin and Johannes Radebe, Cha Cha to Rescue Me by Fontella Bass

Is this Johannes' covert cry for help?
