Just as well, as they seem to have lost all of the ones under 9...

I think an 8 week series and truncated episodes to an hour would help

I’ve told my son if he doesn’t annoy me during strictly I’ll buy him new lego tomorrow, quality parenting.

Haha love it!

Brings to mind arguments in my house when dd was little and I'd try to watch it and she'd dance IN FRONT OF THE TELLY!

And it'd be like

"Dd shift! You are not a window!"

"Sorry mum" she moves 2 steps right...then edges back in front of telly

Rinse and repeat!

Aww poor AJ

Oh Gio.... swoon

I can't help but compare this (unfavourably) with AJ's beautiful quickstep last week.

This is not a dance for a final. And that;s not Rose's fault. Can't help comparing it to AJ's quickstep last week.

I enjoyed that more this time around. The dress is still hideous, but the singing was better, and I found it more charming.

@FuzzyPuffling and @JanisMoplin I have to agree, it's not a spot on AJs of last week

oh tess and your little face !

AJ'z glitter crutches!

My least favourite Rose and Gio dance

I agree completely

@FuzzyPuffling Snap!

I missed this routine first time and am glad, it’s hideous. It’s like they’ve shoehorned a quickstep in to music that doesn’t go at all

AJ's crutches are

Rose's wig is much nicer than last time!

It was very good but too much faffing at the first which is why I didn't like it much last time.

The opening number was a bit oof, missing AJ already.
I found Rose's QS twee first time around, so curmudgeonly at the moment.

Oh my, Motsi looks divine!

Gio ditched the middle parting.

Love Motsi’s outfit.

That was an odd choice from the judges IMO. Not keen on the styling either really.

@ShirleyPhallus It's my Wooly Hug blanket from MN when my DP died nearly three years ago! 💔

I agree. It's awful.

Twee is exactly the right word. And not her fault because of course Frozen is twee.
