I am going to have endure many weeks of DH saying "who?" when I mention any of the dancers.
Even by Week Ten he never knows which is which.
That goes for the professional dancers as well.

Thoughts and prayers are with you ShellBeach. With two Angelas, two Nikitas, Amanda and Lauren looking similar in groups and Zara and CelebNikita being indistinguishable from a distance (at least they've given Luba a haircut - if they hadn't she'd have blended in with them too), he's going to be even worse than usual.

DH is the same - he doesn't watch but will wander in when it's on and say who are these people? Which one is the celeb? I have done my annual audit of but you must know so and so is and reckon this year he will know Angela R, KGM and Les and when I point out that Angela S did robot wars he will know her too. The rest will be a total mystery to him.

TheShellBeach · 23/09/2023 12:02

I've just asked DH if he knows the names of the presenters or the judges.

It goes without saying that he does not.

This is despite watching the show since 2017.

TheShellBeach · 23/09/2023 12:13

Hahahahaha

I've just asked him to try to name the man who joined the judging panel most recently.
After a titanic mental struggle, he offered, uncertainly, "Ant and Dec?"

Story in DM about Gio & Amanda she didn’t like his training style 🤔and was going to quit …

ilovebrie8 · 23/09/2023 12:39

a few comments on DM about Amanda A being aggressive with her children/ex husband …who knows?!? Could be true or made up…

munchbunch12 · 23/09/2023 12:43

It just said on Radio 2 that Nigel and Katya are doing a paso to Layla!

Her ex partner is Martin Freeman. He's so insufferable he'd be enough to drive a Saint to a strongly worded rebuke! DM commentators will always default to it being a woman's fault in any argument

Lentilweaver · 23/09/2023 13:03

My DH pretends to be entirely clueless and was saying "Which one is the celeb" when Karen and Jayde were dancing. Going to ignore him tonight.

ilovebrie8 · 23/09/2023 13:04

As I said @Angrycat2768 could be made up ! Who knows papers like a headline …

Ha true, he never learned to drive so AA had to do all the driving in their relationship.
Even tho her new partner broke his back he is happy to still drive.

Lentilweaver · 23/09/2023 13:49

Oh, I always liked Martin Freeman's acting. Didn't know he was insufferable.

AlaskanSnow · 23/09/2023 13:58

Can someone explain the acronym TRA please, in response to the Gio/Amanda story.

Lentilweaver · 23/09/2023 14:02

TRA means transright activists. Amanda has been cancelled by them and branded transphobic.

Oh no it is really irritating isn't it ? My Dh adds in the occasional how are the a celebrity or I don't know who's who in the couples<sigh> there is Rugby on tonight I might just stick headphones on and watch it on iplayer.

Lentilweaver · 23/09/2023 14:13

My DH only likes dances with lifts. So he will keep popping up to ask "Anything with lifts?" Even when it is a waltz.

I’m with Mr Lentil 👍

TennisWithDeborah · 23/09/2023 14:17

Amanda does not seem like a whiner tbh. I find the story hard to believe despite Gio’s reputation for robustness.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 23/09/2023 16:24

@PolkadotsAndMoonbeams

Are you here tonight or do I need to keep an eye out for next thread ?

Amanda has denied it in a sweary rant Grin

That was for Mr LentilWeaver Grin Wink
