Strictly 2021!

[covetingthepreciousthings]

Couldn't see a thread yet.. maybe it's too early.. but needed to talk to people about Strictly with the news today that Zoe Ball and Ian Waite are leaving ITT!

Will Rylan take over full time? Who will become the resident dance expert?

Also, has anyone else seen the clips of AJ and Curtis on Hollyoaks? I do wonder if he regrets quitting Strictly.. I'm
not sure acting is his forte.

Pity AJ Pritchard is gone, we could have had AJ and AJ :)

I bet they'd have strongly considered it. This is show that put together a Jason and Kylie despite a ridiculous height difference.

I wonder why the reveals so far have been mainly men? I know some of it must be about when they're available to announce it, but it just seems strange.

I bet they'd have strongly considered it. This is show that put together a Jason and Kylie despite a ridiculous height difference.

Kylie complained that her neck hurt, due to the height difference and the way she had to dance - there was a ridiculous difference, they've never done that again and you do wonder if it was the names that made them do it. I don't think she did another series, just that one.

I remember Rhys as being quite manic on CBBC, so he's another one who will probably throw himself into it from day one. Now I've said that, he'll be a shy mouse!

Shoot me down but if it another Karim Worthington, I’ll be zoning out.

(I don’t do manic)

That might just be his TV presenter persona hopeful but I think he'll be a good dancer. All CBBC/CBeebies presenters are a bit manic.

Yes, Karim was a bit over the top.

Gethin wasn't. I'm amazed we haven't had more Blue Peter presenters actually.

Just Gethin and Matt I think?

Dear God! Bloody Karim and his manic dancing, photo bombing every opportunity and generally being a f*ing annoying arse.

I do not want a repeat of that

Ah I liked Karim Zeroual, bless him - not done much recently, since Strictly though?? Was on the Wheel and sleb baking. I do feel for all those who left stable jobs pre-Covid.
Rhys seems nice enough, good looking young man. Shall give him to Katya.

I think he was on Apocalypse Wow.

It was on in the background one night. I don’t know what it is about. But it looked a bit full on.

I think they have to do tasks.

If one of them was grinning, he’d have won fo’ sho’

Ghosts is back on Monday which did lead me to hope for one of the Horrible History/Ghosts cast to take part.

Haven’t seen Ghosts.

Do I take the shame sequins? 😳

I knew not of what you spoke so googled it, despite the title itself making me wince. The review's headline made me smile.

Ooh sheld you are missing our there, lovely. It's a grower. Initial pilot, you're thinking oh, it's for kids (which it can be, my son watches with) but you kind of fall in love with them all. It's on iplayer, 2 series. 13 episodes, you've got 6 and a half hours worth of bingwatching

out
bingewatching

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

sequins I shall now be watching Apocalypse Wow because that review headline sold it. 😁🤣. Thank you. 😁🤡

Will try to watch ghosts too - I ain’t averse to a binge. I might manage to do it in a oneser next weekend. 👍🏼

Wonder who the Towie / made in Chelsea person will be. Or have they changed their mind and gone back to the no reality scripted show cast member rule

Ghosts is good, definitely watch! We always forget one of the names though so Alison (I just checked) is "Barbara-from-Call-the-Midwife" in the Moonbeams household.

Jess Wright?

Isn’t she supposed to be on Apocalypse Wow too?

Her brother has been on it….

No chance of chemastree though from Towie peeps. Frozen coupons do not expressions make.

Could be Liv Bento from MIC? I’d get distracted though as she mostly just shows her bottom teeth just like an angry Yorkshire Terrier.

Does anyone know when / where to expect today's announcement ?

Ghosts is quite fun (i gave it a go) because < stealth boast> one of DD's besties is in it.

Never heard of Wow Apocalypse is it a piss take?

Sorry coveting I did turn over to The One Show during the ads in Downton but no joy.

No announcement today?

Well, a friend texted me to say that Mark Morrison (Return of the Mack) had been signed up but I have searched and cannot find anything to confirm this.
