Unless we talk too much of course!

I don't really like Ugo on the new Question of Sport (it seems to have lost the A"). I don't really like the new version of the programme if I'm being honest — bring back Sue, Matt and Phil I say! Although I do like Sam Quek.

I hope Sara isn't first boot. It's maybe partly the north-east accent — I used to have dance lessons there and I loved being called "pet" by the teacher.

@Redcrayons If they offered me Gleb no cash would be needed

@AnneShirleysNewDress I would pay them to dance with Gleb!

Custard creams bleugh, they can go in the crumgeon.

I think Dan will be called out for his spade hands, and I think Sara will surprise.

52 minutes and counting........😀

God I miss Gleb!

Sheld just made my son laugh trying to keep up with the lyric video.
Kudos to you!

Based on suitability/memorability/popularity of music alone I'd think
Katie/John/AJ/Rose/Robert
will go down well with the public
Adam/Ugo/Tom/Dan
have safe choices
Nina/Sara/Rhys/Greg/Tilly/Judi
have the least memorable

Fortunately for them all, they do get two dances/two shots to make an impact.

What would you want your two dances to be, if you thought you might go out first anyway?

Me - Tango/Viennese (what I would love to learn)
Chacha/American smooth (what might be safer)

Also: Rhys End of the road???? Really? Already?

Delurking to say I'm very much looking forward to tonight even though last week was a bit of a damp squib I thought.
I have cream cakes for my snack and am happy to share

Just checking in. So excited!

Sequins

Quickstep - it is far and away my favourite. And if I didn’t look like one of the ballet dancers in Fantasia, with a face like a well skelpit backside, it is my deepest fantasy to skip merrily across Eilean Donan bridge in my wedding dress, with a mr wonderful-for-me. To Radiohead. Jigsaw falling into place.

Waltz or vwaltz to Nothing Else Matters By Metallica (if it would work).

I would just like to look beautifully elegant.

Never gonna happen 😭

Never say never sheld - just listened to your Radiohead track and looked at the bridge on google images. MrWFY would be lucky to have you. Did you find Miley's cover of NEM good or from the abyss?

Sheldon I simply do not believe that you are not beautiful. Maybe not conventional, but a person of beauty, nonetheless.🌺

Marking my spot ready, DH is in the process of putting the kids to bed but there’s a lot of shouting and screaming going on so I suspect I will need to nip out to intervene shortly!

I'm ready
Curry dished up
Here we go!

Woo

🥳🥳

Evening all!

So excited it’s time!

are go!

Signing in, Prosecco at the ready!]

So gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️

Love this Who Song!! I'm known to sing along loudly in the car and embarrass Mum.
Not sure if Wilf is watching as he and his choir are signing at a memorial service this evening..
