He's the best choreographer.
It's not about him.

I’ve really enjoyed the choreography he’s done this year. He seems to have really settled into his role well.

He’s part of an encephalitis charity I think. His mum has that, but I thought I remembered cancer as well. Perhaps she’s been unlucky.

SweetBaklava · 20/12/2025 20:10

Omg 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Indigovelvet · 20/12/2025 20:10

She's very genuine Karen. I listen to her.

CrushingOnRubies · 20/12/2025 20:10

Kai looks wonderful in a Claudia wig

Aquarius1234 · 20/12/2025 20:10

Karen is so tiny. Always forget she was a footballer.

chaosmaker · 20/12/2025 20:11

They all just pushed past Dianne :(

Aquarius1234 · 20/12/2025 20:11

Like Claudia wasnt aware. Awful lier.

chaosmaker · 20/12/2025 20:12

Claudia bores me too.

Aquarius1234 · 20/12/2025 20:12

Sooooo not funny.

Def one of the worst series' for me

Agree, it's been pretty boring. They need more actual celebrities!

washingfrenzy · 20/12/2025 20:12

All 8 votes to Karen here.

Yes I think Carlos is good at choreographing to showcase his partner rather than hide his partner. I preferred that choreography - more dancing, less gymnastics.

Yes, that's how I feel. I don't like the gymnastics.

George is the only none dancer and he 100% deserves to win. Karen just showed up the dance experience she’s been trying to hide. I hate when they do sob stories.

She danced at school and gave up at 15 - 23 years ago. She has no professional experience.

I was a good mid/long distance runner at school, I was on the team, competed regionally etc. If there was a “strictly come athletics” I’d be shit because the “pro” level is an entirely different ball game.

mumofoneAloneandwell · 20/12/2025 20:12

Ahh I wanted to see Claudia and tess dance 😄

Aquarius1234 · 20/12/2025 20:12

Claudia bores me too.

Im shocked as I used to love her. Shes got boring.

Please remember that Alexis wouldn't be able to do those lifts without George supporting her. The male dancer is never as showy, his job is to present and lead his partner, and George did a brilliant job of that.

That’s all true.

However, in the final it’s only the ‘general public’ whose votes matter, and many of them don’t have dance expertise. That means the pro needs to provide choreography to show their dancer to their best advantage in a more obvious way.

It’s part of the judges’ role to point out the skills that the celebrity is demonstrating, and they do. However, many people will just vote on what they’ve seen. In my opinion.

Agreed. So meh.

Same here.

Nikita is so handsome.

SweetBaklava · 20/12/2025 20:07

re. Tess… I’ve been to two live recordings of the show and I can confirm that she is fantastic in the role, utterly lovely to the audience and very professional! She will be very missed

I think people forget or don't know how hard live TV is.

KatyaKabanova · 20/12/2025 20:13

chaosmaker · 20/12/2025 20:12

Claudia bores me too.

Yes, I think she's very over rated. The BBC pay her very, very generously though!

Aquarius1234 · 20/12/2025 20:13

Nikita wore that outfit on Celebrity Big Brother. Lol
