Hello folks,
Last one filled up and I was surprised another hadn't been started for a while.

First thoughts:
I like this year's cohort and I recognise a few faces.

  • Jayde reminds me of Dawn French. Wasn't expecting her to be paired with Karen.
  • Carlos and Vito will be interesting to watch in their debut. Molly went to Sylvia Young Theatre, so she could be a ringer.
  • I've seen Jowita in The Greatest Dancer and she was phenomenal. Hamza looks like he'll be good fun.
  • Luba looked amazing during John Legend's performance and it's a shame that neither her celebs went very far. Maybe she's better suited to dancing in the background.
  • When Helen Skelton mentioned needing someone who could understand a northern accent, I immediately guessed it was Gorka.
  • Ellie and Johannes look good together. She's absolutely delighted with him, and I hope we get to watch them for a good while.
  • Matt Goss seems rather subdued, but I think he'll have a good work ethic and deliver a good performance.

She held up the wrong paddle but then went, ah go on then!?

Gooseysgirl · 24/09/2022 19:17

C'mon Jayde!!!!

Found the target of Shirley's affections early this year
Dianne danced round him a bit but think he might be pretty good

ShirleyJackson · 24/09/2022 19:17

I think she’ll be brilliant. She’s musical.

It used to be more lively didn't it?

Just realised that it's because only half the dancers are up there and the others are at tables

These first dances remind me ll if the negative comments about Rose in the first week.

Not happy that Gio got Richie, wonder if I’m proved wrong 🤔

SequinsandStilettos · 24/09/2022 19:18

Diiirrrttttyyyy is not Xtina's best song. So they are filthy mechanics then?! Well done pp.

Simonjt · 24/09/2022 19:18

Nothing will beat my dance to dirty 🤣

FitYeDaeinYeMadRadge · 24/09/2022 19:19

That made me 😁

SpinningAwaySadly · 24/09/2022 19:19

It's all great fun!

SoupDragon · 24/09/2022 19:19

This looks very stompy and heavy footed.

Jellykat · 24/09/2022 19:19

I enjoyed that! Fair play..

fatgirlslimmer · 24/09/2022 19:19

@Simonjt the mind boggles 🕺🏻

GrouchyKiwi · 24/09/2022 19:19

Jayde's costume is 10 million times better than Karen's.

That was fun.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 24/09/2022 19:19

Erm..

Sunbird24 · 24/09/2022 19:19

Not sure anyone noticed Jayde with Karen looking that hot!

WeKnowFrogsGoShaLaLaLaLa · 24/09/2022 19:20

I'll have some of Jaydes joy please, in absolute spades. ❤️

ShirleyJackson · 24/09/2022 19:20

Sheer JOY!!

FitYeDaeinYeMadRadge · 24/09/2022 19:20

She will work on it she has joy in her soul

ShirleyJackson · 24/09/2022 19:21

She’ll be wishing her sister was there 🙁

Figgygal · 24/09/2022 19:21

Karens been my favourite female pro for years she looks awesome

EvilRingahBitch · 24/09/2022 19:22

Jayde's great from the knees up, but....
Even DH who knows nothing but likes Jayde said she looked flat footed.

I can't believe how much younger she looks in training with no makeup.

SequinsandStilettos · 24/09/2022 19:22

Started off well, liked the reveal, but it did lack bounce and halfway through, she looked as knackered as me stamina-wise

covetingthepreciousthings · 24/09/2022 19:22

Do you think she'd requested to not wear heels ?

MomwasCasual · 24/09/2022 19:23

Oh bless she looks absolutely fagged.
