Martina Hingis was on Strictly in 2009 but was the first to be voted off (I vaguely remember that - it was a long time ago!)

Raahh · 10/08/2023 11:30

I still hold out hope of Goran doing it- but he's too far sucked into the Fig Cult now. Sad
I'd forgotten about Martina altogether- but how could I forget Judy??Grin.

I'm not a fan of youtubers/ influencers/ex Love Islander/Towie types I've only ever heard of because they've been on every reality show going. Some come across well- but mostly they annoy me. Irrationally Grin.

They must have a spreadsheet to make sure they get the right 'one of each category' (soap/sport/failed singer/newsreader etc) each year.

Fizzywinegum · 10/08/2023 11:48

Yes some people just seem to be ‘celebrities’ from appearing on these types of programmes Raahh - they annoy me as well Grin

They do seem to have a certain formula on Strictly …

kazzaD66 · 10/08/2023 12:19

I hope Annabel does well and stays in for at least a few weeks or more and that she gets a good pro, Gio or Kai maybe.

Can't believe Andy pulled it out the bag overnight!

Raahh · 10/08/2023 12:26

Annabel and Kai would be lovely!

ChessieFL · 10/08/2023 13:11

I would love to see more tennis players do Strictly.

Roger and Sue both have spare time now…

IceandIndigo · 10/08/2023 13:11

Andy has a much tougher assignment against Sinner next. Still, he’s up to 36 in the live rankings, with a decent draw in Cinci he could yet be seeded for the USO. He’s been playing well, he just keeps losing tight matches against top 10 players. Personally I’d be quite happy with a Murray-Raonic final Grin

Raahh · 10/08/2023 13:20

Strictly is something I can imagine Heather Watson signing up for. But that would probably annoy me too (but not as much as Jo Konta Grin).

Fizzywinegum · 10/08/2023 13:24

I was thinking Jo Konta as well Raahh -her dancing would probably be as annoying as her serve!

A Murray-Raonic final would definitely be a turn up for the books Ice Grin

Rune Ruud confusion from Greg Grin

Raahh · 10/08/2023 16:20

I switched on just in time for that Jane. Grin

Raahh · 10/08/2023 16:21

I don't like the raspberry version of his top, the mustard is nicer.

Raahh · 10/08/2023 16:22

And I like the striped shorts.

Apart from that, he looks great Grin(Still hate the colour of ADF's top though).

JaneJeffer · 10/08/2023 16:33

There's too much going on with those tops! Different sleeves and stripes.

The chat about social media is funny Grin

Prime just booted me off. Behave!

The sunshine of yesterday didn't stick around and we're back to pissing rain again

I know- Greg is younger than I am and it makes him sound old and crabby Grin.

I also find the 'can't go on your phone, but watch tennis video's thing a bit hypocritical. It's still a screen!

Prime is not your friend at the moment Jane!

Raahh · 10/08/2023 16:41

But Mo is in the house. Wearinga top the same colour as his chair. I don't know if that's deliberate.

I'm a bit obsessed with the kit choices Grin.

Underarm serve - I don't like them ,but I do love ADF's smile.

JaneJeffer · 10/08/2023 16:49

He's so kooky Grin

OP posts:
Raahh · 10/08/2023 16:50

I wish these two weren't playing each other. I felt the same about Sinner/Matteo. They both deserve to go further.

Obviously, I'm Team Casper, but I like watching ADF a lot.

JaneJeffer · 10/08/2023 16:51

The problem is there's too many likeable players around these days!

OP posts:
Raahh · 10/08/2023 16:53

I know! Which is a good thing, because it means I am missing Rafa a bit less than I would have done.
It helps when players like Kyrgios or Djok are AWOL too Grin

JaneJeffer · 10/08/2023 16:58

Why is Casper making that face? If the wind changes..,
