New thread to link to for videos, to try to keep this one running faster.

SPOILER-FREE THREAD

This song will forever be That Episode of Grey's for me.

for Kym.

Didn't like this dance either.

My daughter's first daughter was still born. This is NOT why I watch Strictly.

Hugs to all those who have suffered loss.

I think this is generally the case with Dianne's partners.

The American Smooth dresses are almost always fabulous - why can't they do that with all of the others?

Yes it was lovely!

Too much of that was lift imo

Hmmm... too many lifts and one botched one. Kym may be in trouble.

NEW THREAD

I love Kym

another dispapointment after last week

Neil comments are traditional.

I cat take my eyes off those horrible boots.

I didn't know this about Kym :(
For those who have lost loved ones 💐

wish nobody had linked the neil d chanse videos though, could have done without them

Tedious, more like.

Me too.
Dead nans are one thing but - just no.

I'm so sorry Fuzzy

I've often wondered how these private stories affect other people who have experienced the same grief. I think it would upset me.

Thanks ESV.

That was pretty good. I think Helen is most improved and so clean in her movements.

She was a bit too stiff for a Salsa, I thought?

i watch Strictly for a bit of an escape.

We absolutely all have our own crosses to bear and our own buckets of sadness and responsibility to carry as we go through our day.

I don’t want to have to be carrying them during Strictly. I want to leave them be.

Don’t care for (however personally important or sad it is) Blackpool string tugging.

Because that is what it feels like.

Is Tony the most improved? I think so!

What's Motsi crying about

Craig is so mean

Is it the not-Tom-Cruise Jack Reacher? It's quite good.
