Love Rylan’s eye makeup. A thing of beauty

Is Shirley pissed on IT2

Elderflower14 · 29/10/2021 18:52

@StormyCornishSeas Thankyou @RainbowWilf996 and I have watched... Wilf knew the interpreter!

No worries! I was actually thinking of you & Wilf when watching it. I was going to actually tag you then didn't for some reason x

It’s a small world. I was confused by not knowing them 😂

Elderflower14 · 29/10/2021 20:30

@TheDrsDocMartens do you know a lot of the interpreters?

HikingforScenery · 29/10/2021 20:44

@MareofBeasttown

Perhaps this is very politcally incorrect but am always distracted by John and Adam's massive bums in all their dances ( and Adams crotch in the last dance). Not in a good way. In a cringe way. I wish they would let them wear looser trousers so the bums aren't the main focus.
I wish I could erase the memory of watching Adam’s dance last week. Blurgh!

Yes or at least know them by sight or recognise names.

@TheDrsDocMartens Wilfs BSL teacher is Marcel Hirshman who intreprets a lot on BBC News 24.

Are there some interpreters who specialise in theatre/musical theatre? I've seen the same man with several different shows (but all tours by the same company), and it was great to keep an eye on him during the performances.

When he signed songs, he did it quite differently to signing speech — to match the rhythms of the song I think.

I've set the NEW THREAD up a bit early, because I don't think I'll get to watch live tonight. Here

I am acquainted with someone who signs for music theatre and gigs. She says she doesn't sign like you would speak, she sort of interprets the songs in a way that the lyrics will be understandable but not a literal translation. She is fantastic at what she does.

Looks like I will be watching Strictly with Wilf again tonight.. He's been at the hospital this morning with chest pains... Now home again. They have said its viral.

EvilRingahBitch · 30/10/2021 12:23

Oh dear. Hope he gets well soon Elderflower.

holidaynearlyover · 30/10/2021 12:38

@ApolloandDaphne yes that would be the case as when you see most songs signed it's SE signed English which isn't the same as BSL (it's what you see Rose do when she signs and speaks at the same time)

ppeatfruit · 30/10/2021 13:23

Judy looked well on ITT last night and looking forward to dancing tonight , the reports about her ill health were exaggerated.

Yes I liked the understated Halloween theme as well, Rylan saying his mascara had run!

GrouchyKiwi · 30/10/2021 14:26

Feel better soon Wilf. Smile

Fenelladepompom · 30/10/2021 15:22

Hope he wasn't shouting and swearing at you Elderflower. Hope Wilf is better soon.

No not at me... At his work colleagues... Arrived a little while ago... Now watching the film Six Days It's about the Iranian Embassy Siege in 1980.. Wilfs Dad was in the SAS. He trained all the men who went in and he retired two weeks before the siege..
SequinsandStiIettos · 30/10/2021 16:19

Ooh close then. Sliding doors close. It sounds like an interesting watch. Hope Wilf is better soon love.

iklboogiemaninthecloset · 30/10/2021 17:27

The hotel has iplayer! We'll be watching on catch up after our anniversary meal.

iklboogiemaninthecloset · 30/10/2021 17:28

Oh no. Poor Wilf (and poor you). Hope he's better soon. I love watching his Twitter videos.

FitYeDaeinYeMadRadge · 30/10/2021 18:34

Hope you feel better soon Wilf, what a scare for you Elderflower, hope you are okay.
