I thought this started on 20th Sept. DH reckons he's seen a trailer saying it is tomorrow!

Does anyone know anything about this????

I'm SO glad to have found this thread. I love SCD so much. This time last year I was heavily pg and could sit around with my feet up eating choccy biscuits and watching ITT every day to my heart's content. This year I've got an 11mo's bed time to contend with which clashes with ITT and the Saturday show. I'm either going to have to start putting DD to bed at 5pm or I'll have to work out how to use iPlayer!

I thought Erin's hair looked great (although I see the Celine Dion comparison)...I've got dark brown hair and it made me think I should go lighter. V flattering.

Don't think any of the girls are preggers. I just think they put on weight when the show's not on. TV adds pounds too. I thought Ola looked amazing but she somehow always manages to look like a pole dancer, even when she's doing an elegant waltz!

My friend nearly handicapped Austin's chances.The other week,he was walking past her car,as she flung the door open without looking.It missed him by about 2 inches & there was a collective gasp from all the mums who saw it.My friend claims not to have realised and assures me that she hasn't got any money riding on the results........

did you hear that the lovely Gethin (from last year) is going to replace Lee Mead in Joseph!!

squeaver · 24/09/2008 18:44

OMG. Jessie Wallace looks like a drag queen.

MaryAnnSingleton · 24/09/2008 19:04

'Enders girls are rough..Jessie's hair looks better with fringe off her face

andyrobo237 · 24/09/2008 19:54

I thought there was a similarity between Flavia and Jessie!! When they both had theor hair down it was quite similar, although Flavia is a lot prettier! Not sure Jessie's short fringe is suiting her though but her hair is in great condition and she has lost loads of weight! She is probably still a horror though!

TALLULAHBELLE · 25/09/2008 20:07

No ITT tonight. BBC2 Scotland showing 'De A-Nis'. I'm all for preserving our traditions & language but not at the expense of Strictly please! So did I miss anything good?

Showmeheaven · 25/09/2008 21:28

Jessie's hair is awful! She has beautiful hair, I can't understand why she butchered it. Its going to bug me for the entire series

Similarity between Jessie & Flavia Flavia is absolutely stunning, with her big eyes & high cheekbones, I don't think Jessie looks anything like her .....

VP - Claudia didn't wear her wedding ring for a lot of last year's ITT, so maybe she's one of those women who doesn't wear it regularly whatever the situation at home? Love Claudia, she has a Matilda too - sadly I am not dark haired and glamorous though.

Quite like the new pros. Very sweet that Brian had a birthday weep. Brian did slip up though by saying they record the results show on a diff day, unlike here. Do you think we could lobby for it to go back to Sat night? New Russian lady very kind with JS. I know he won't go far, but am so glad that he lasted past week 1. It's good that the old guard is represented rather than just the Holby hotties (do Enders and holvy have some sort of contractual requirement that they participate?)

Flavia is SOOOOOOOO much better than Jessie. I thought both Jessie and Gillian looked a bit rough. Cherie must be the same age as G yet oozes class. Jodie a disaster think she'll go first tomorrow.

chutneymary · 26/09/2008 08:15

FLavia better looking of course - she has to be a better dancer as it's her job

lalaa · 26/09/2008 09:43

I think Gillian Taylforth (sp?) will be first to go. She hasn't practiced much and her training looks dire. Some of the other girls look brilliant!

MaryAnnSingleton · 26/09/2008 09:45

she's as rough as a badger's chuff
Brian was very sweet and Claudia is so funny !

Snaf · 26/09/2008 09:47

I think I must be the only person in the world who loves having the results show on a Sunday. I don't want it to go back to Saturday! It means I can go out on a Sat after the main show and still have something glittery to watch on Sun night. SCD 7 days a week - what's not to like?

I do wish they'd stop with the pretence that it's actually live on Sunday, though. 'Tis ridiculous and a wee bit insulting.

Jodie is nice, but very unconfident

Snaf · 26/09/2008 10:11

Jodie looks very uncomfortable, but she may surprise with some of the slower ballroom stuff, if she can keep those limbs under control. Anyway, she's already a skilled polo player, racing driver and supermodel - it would be too unfair if she turned out to be a fantastic dancer as well...

lalaa · 26/09/2008 10:46

Jodie did say that she was ill before last week's show and hadn't been at any of the group training sessions so didn't know it at all, which goes a long way to explaining why she was particularly rubbish last week. And she's doing the foxtrot. I think she'll sail through. If she was doing the jive, I wouldn't be so confident!

TALLULAHBELLE · 26/09/2008 13:25

Oh No Turniphead. Don't think I have iplayer -have no idea what it is tbh. ITT is never shown on Tues in Scotland cos BBC2 always has Gaelic progs on.

TALLULAHBELLE · 26/09/2008 13:26

Meant Thurs.

fionaann · 26/09/2008 15:02

I think Gillian probably should go first but will most likely become the Kate Garraway of this series.

Starting to really warm to Vincent this series - have always found him a bit of a twerp in the past but he seems to be taking himself less seriously.

Also wish they would stop the pretence that they film the results show on Sunday.
