Strictly '22 #15 Balls to the ⚽️. Its all about the Glitter Ball!

[xsquared]

Welcome to the shiny new thread.

One less day to wait for the next installment of Strictly!

I love the way Gorka says comfortable…

I just love Gorka sunbird

Even when he was a soupçon pissy. 🫠

Just watched ITT. The segment on Craig made me feel sad for his childhood. So happy he found a way to live his dream.

I don't think so - I listen to their podcast and she's never mentioned that! She's a singer but she went to a normal comp school, and she's worked as a redcoat in butlins, but as ringers go, she's far behind Molly, or Jay, or Ashley!

I remember me and DP shouting 'Man up!' at the TV at that
Didn't see him explaining it on ITT though. Funny to think they used to dig into that sort of thing then and now they don't even show it.

@mrstea301 just had a quick look and found this -

Rosie has also toured the UK and overseas in various theater and musical productions throughout her career; singing, dancing and acting.

Do you think that qualifies her as a ringer though? She's mainly a singer I think. There's plenty of people that have been on that have went to stage school, are they all ringers? Appearing in musical theatre isn't the same as doing ballroom dancing. If Scarlett Moffat from gogglebox / I'm a celeb went on, then yes, she's a ringer - she was dancing in ballroom competitions up until she was in her early 20's, but I think that's a bit unfair for Rosie.

Although I freely admit I think she's hilarious and I really like her, so I could be biased! 😂😂

My people!!!!! BeaLola. Tess has also stopped saying look at their (or your) little face!!!
I like the use of the old musicals (as long as they're good). There are too many very good contestants in this Strictly it does make for sameness but the standard is incredible. Hamza is FAB .

Can you believe it's Strictly night already?

Is it on tonight? I'm confused. Will go and google.

My oriole exactly !!!

Love Hamza - saw Joeita on a performance in the summer - she was fab

Won't be able to post tonight due to time, Oh Well

I don't know why we have to have strictly moved - I wrongly assumed it was because the football was on tomorrow but I have been told it's Sunday - all they had to do was put the football (or SCD) results on BBC2 - Job done

Tonight at 8pm - bloody hell.

And, the England game isn't even on the BBC! Bah Humbug

If the competition is tonight, when is the results show? I can't see it in the schedule.

And yes, they should just show it on bbc2. Or even bbc3!

I think it’s on tomorrow at something like quarter to 5.

Quarter to 5!

Thanks both. That's too early for a glass of wine!

Just checked - 5.40 tomorrow!😣

Not quite as early as I thought then - I knew there was a 5 in there somewhere!

That's far too early. They're messing with us!

Watching ITT - Shirley just said that Hamza's footwork has faults but no-one's footwork is perfect. If no-one is perfect why are you giving them 10s, you ridiculous person?

Yes, I've just seen that & thought WTF, she really shouldn't be head judge

I’m a Tess fan. I find her smooth and professional on the whole but I do find it quite funny when she fails to keep a straight face whilst delivering a joke. I couldn’t imagine SCD without her now.

The marking from Shirley and Motsi is sometimes at odds with their comments. I agree with Craig in that 10s should be rare.

I wish they’d taken the decision to broadcast the results live later tonight. It would have been an opportunity to see how it went down with viewers and those associated with the show. The “Sunday Night” fakery is wearing thin and I think they should address it. I do however, appreciate that a late results show would disadvantage very young and very old viewers who may not be able to wait up.
