Early for the Week Two thread but ITT doesn’t seem to be attracting a lot of traffic so I think it’ll work. I’ll do another on the night if I have to.

KEEP DANCING 💃💃

I'm liking just Emma and Johannes doing the chat with the judges.

I was expecting Melanie to be in dance off !

Illjusthavethebreadsticks · 04/10/2026 19:32

Josh much better upstairs and can’t he be on his own ?! No need to JoJo at all.

Bit harsh

Hardly - it’s a competition where we are encouraged to have favourites

id love her to go too - she’s a ringer and shouldn’t be there

I’m normally against a ringer myself. but there’s a fair few this year!

Why is Delta a ringer? She's a singer and actress. Never seen her dance in anything before Strictly.

If we're going to talk about ringahs of this year and who should and shouldn't be there:
Cach is a professional dancer in Afro beats and Hip Hop, Bethany did musical theatre as a degree, Laurence has also had significant dance training and has appeared in musicals, Graham did a spot of ballroom or Latin albeit last decade.

Anyway, Delta seems to be this year's Alexandra Burke, but I hope she doesn't suffer from being in too many dance offs.

My favourite l madeast night was Graham and Lauren, who looked absolutely stunning. Tabby was lovely too but I do wish they'd let contestants develop their skills first before attempting the Argentine Tango. Though who knows, maybe she'll be excellent at it.

I was disappointed with John this week after a promising start, but I'm sure he'll come back fighting.

Looking forward to Lacey and Vito's samba, but for some reason he seems subdued yesterday.

”Looking forward to Lacey and Vito's samba, but for some reason he seems subdued yesterday.”

Lacey didn’t too pleased to get Viti when the couples were announced. I wondered if they’re not quite gelling. However, she puts in a good performance as she’s such a professional.

She can clearly dance and perform already - that makes her a ringer enough for me and very boring - there was someone last year who they couldn’t get rid of similar - always in the dance off but never thrown out until public vote

maybe it’s the term ringer that misleading

MilkBreadToiletroll · 04/10/2026 22:57

Jojo looks like he's dissociating when the other presenters are talking. I'm expecting memes with it. I'd be the same, mind you. 😆

She could just be very good at learning. There are plenty of performers, not just her.

Do you also think the ones I've listed who have dancing credentials also shouldn't be there then? Or is it just Delta?

Silverbirchleaf · 04/10/2026 17:33

I agree. Craig is the Simon Cowell of Strictly. Without him, it’s not the same programme.

I would definitely stop watching if Craig left

Edited

I don’t think that’s it…you can’t learn that fast

nope don’t mind the others

shes just too boring and perfect for me

Ok so just zipped through Saturday and watching the results, I am loving the new menu on the fast forward I can ignore all the nonsense watch the interesting bits and all done so quickly!

the80sweregreat · 06/10/2026 20:09

The menu on the I player is a great addition . I was surprised to see it and makes life a bit easier.

Empress13 · 07/10/2026 13:19

just read Brendan Cole’s nasty comments about Amy not being up to the job! What an insensitive numpty he is ! Thought Amy has done wonders energy wise considering the hell she’s been through. Why can’t idiots just keep their opinions to themselves. Just because Mr Cole was sacked ! Sour grapes much !

You’re kidding 😮 Where has he said that?
He really needs to move on from his bitterness about Strictly.

He's an arsehole, and shouldn't have been so insensitive.
But I do agree that she's not been great

what is the new menu?

the80sweregreat · 07/10/2026 14:57

On I player, of you start to fast forwards it shows you what’s coming up next with the dances. Not sure if this is new or I didn’t notice it before , but it makes life easier if you’re looking for one dance or whatever.
It pops up like a small menu.

That’s as maybe but to kick a girl when she’s down is inexcusable. Just think how she’ll feel reading it. TBH she doesn’t get paired with popular contestants who alot of people have heard of. Let’s be honest here it’s a popularity contest

JaneFondue · 07/10/2026 17:44

I don't think even Katya could have made Thomas Skinner likeable.
