[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

Bums numb yet folks? I'm enjoying it though.

Spoiler thread if you like to indulge.

If you are benched most years like Luba and Neil there is a reason… Lauren and Jai/Carlos woz robbed

the Sacrificial Altar of getting Ange Rippon to Blackpool

😂😂
So true.

What time is the results show tonight please?

7:15

Thanks @BehindTheSequinsandStilettos I really don't feel I know her either!

Thanks

I wish they’d revert to the old way of doing the elimination on the same night. This whole waiting 24 hours to what is evidently a recorded bull shit show with Tess and Claud referring to yesterday and today etc is just rubbish.

Yes I agree totally. Others on here have made the (fair) point that it might be difficult for the very young and elderly to stay up for it. But all things considered I think it would be more entertaining and punchy, and allows less time for spoilers if they do it on a short delay if they don’t want to do it live for whatever reason.

I'm watching now...I have no idea if Tom was any good there as I couldn't take my eyes of Nadia's bottom...peachy!

One of my main bugbears for Strictly is the Sunday results

That and music not matching the dance and the fucking round with props and theming, just fucking dance.

I gave my 3 votes to Toyah and Neil, I like Neil so would like them to stay another week at least. I thought Paul was worse, he just seemed to mainly walk about the floor with a few shuffles about!
I think the standard seems to get higher every year so someone who is obviously a beginner really stands out.
I think it's unfair on the others as well when there is obviously someone who has had dance training although they usually don't win.

I always look at 'The Strictly Spoiler' on Saturday night / Sunday morning. Don't worry, not giving anything away here.
It does away with the ordeal of watching the mind-numbingly tedious results show on Sunday.

We have a spoiler thread where we discuss it.

Ah, haven't seen that. Thank you!

I've felt very emotional watching Chris McCausland last week and last night. I was worried before how he would be not being able to see Dianne or the dance floor but he is incredible! I'm not a huge fan of Dianne normally but she is doing a brilliant job.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but my children watched a show when they were young on Cbeebies called Me Too. It was filmed in places near were we live.
Chris was in it, he had a fruit and veg stall. Also Miles Jupp and others!
It brings back lovely memories of us all watching it!

Sorry was out last night

But all caught up

Think the football player is leaving, I liked Chris, Jamie and Sarah

Gosh Tess’s arms are thin!

Tess’s arms 😱

I think it’s the sleeves.

This is enjoyable

I agree

Yes, Tess's sleeves make her arms look extra tiny.

My DD nearly hyperventilated when she saw Craig's ridiculous get up.

That was one of the better pro dances of late.

It's very game of thrones !

Madness. Why is Craig there as the Cowardly Lion?

Craig looks like Tom Neuwirth (Conchita Wurst)!
