Previius thread

Hopefully not — two new threads in one show would be a bit ridiculous. Grin

Polite reminder that this is a spoiler-free thread

good princess Joyce Grenfell. Proper legend. 😍

As stately as a galleon ….

Fuzzy. Beyond jealous Envy

Sheldon I was a big prog rock girl...Wishbone Ash was a particular favourite. I laugh at my (younger than me) DH who liked Showaddywaddy!

the80sweregreat · 12/12/2021 16:46

I'm watching on I player as was out out last night !
Love AJ's white dress for the first dance
Also adore Craig's orange jacket ; how smart is that ?
Motsi's hair is very 70s.
I liked Rhys dance too.
It's been very classy up to now.

the80sweregreat · 12/12/2021 16:47

Craig got the 10 out !!

I liked prog rock too. Tales from Topographic Oceans anyone?

I have lately returned from West Side Story.

The DAAAANCE, darlings

Is it worth seeing? Not v keen on Ansel Elgort.
IReallyLikeCrows · 12/12/2021 17:54

A friend of mine went to see West Side Story yesterday and utterly and completely loved it. I've only seen the trailer so far and said to her, "I know it's almost sacrilegious to say it, but it's better than the original isn't it?" and she replied in the affirmative. I can't wait to see it.

IReallyLikeCrows · 12/12/2021 17:55

My dis is still gruntled today about the marking. It was as though everyone had lost any paddle that wasn't a 9 or a 10 and frankly there should have been a few more 8s in there.

Liverpool won again though, so there was that.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 12/12/2021 18:20

@IReallyLikeCrows

Yes it was...the only thing that surprised me was that it is better looking and better filmed, but the difference from the original isn't so huge as to make a remake essential

WeAreTheHeroes · 12/12/2021 18:28

I love West Side Story - the choreo stands up today. Had lunch with friends and we have said we will go to see the new film.

awaynboilyurheid · 12/12/2021 19:12

Love west side story so bit scared to see new one as it might turn out to be as rubbish as the remake of A star is born , (lady gaga is no Barbara Streisand)
Anyhoo loved last night but if someone has to go hope it’s Reis and Nancy.

ilovesooty · 12/12/2021 19:13

I can't watch live so I'll be getting the results as soon as possible. I'd like John to leave and Rhys to stay because Rhys has found his stride and has been improving - I don't think John has made much real progress. Interesting that James Jordan would have given the CC an 8.

DontWantTheRivalry · 12/12/2021 19:15

I think it will be Rhys and John in the DO. Not because they weren’t good, but just because AJ and Rose were fab.

I like Rhys, but I think it’s his turn to go.

I think Rose will ultimately win.

I’m going to miss seeing Gio on a Saturday night when all this is over.

WeAreTheHeroes · 12/12/2021 19:15

Interestingly, both versions have 93% audience ratings on Rotten Tomatoes which I find is a good rule of thumb.

ShirleyPhallus · 12/12/2021 19:15

It has to be Rhys doesn’t it? The stats don’t add up otherwise, I don’t think it’s possible to get enough votes from the public to avoid the DO. I don’t think th judges would save him over anyone tbh

awaynboilyurheid · 12/12/2021 19:17

Just love Gio and Rose’s relationship, I think he really admires her but also he’s not used to having comments like Rose comes away with like when he said we have to get up very close for the tango and Rose then looked at him and said …“ stinky breath”

He looked so shocked and then he just cracked up! he’s probably so used to being fussed over by females that he’s always surprised by her, it’s v funny! And probably good for him!

I wonder if James Jordan is a secret lurker on here as all his Twitter comments are exactly what we are all saying Grin

Yes it's great but a lot of us farmers call this benighted programme Cuntyfile

Absolutely beautiful. I could have done with more of that.

I saw the siblings perform about three years ago, it was brilliant.
