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 like John Sargent or Don Warrington - neither is eye candy to look at but they seem to be enjoying it as well as making a reasonable fist of their dances. Tom seems too clean-cut for me although he can dance.

The headbanging tango? The GMTV legacy lives on.

Austin's jive was amazing. I know Karen has fallen out of disfavour with MN for gurning / unfortunate choreographical moments but I do feel sorry for her with a lemon like Gary. She is putting on a v brave face unless she really is deranged and thinks he is doing okay.

Did Len really say "gnat's scrotum"?

Simplysally · 05/10/2008 18:41

Yes he did .

Thankfully eagle-eared (?) dd missed that.

Heard that Gary Rhodes (ewww, hate that man) is especially appalling and I'm glad. I really cannot stand him.

OMG, I just went to the BBC site to watch the dances (thanks PP) and you can choose a fixed camera view. I had no idea that they have to dance with camera men runnng around them a couple of feet away....must be so distracting. Also nice to compare how they use th floor which isn't really clear on the shows....too geeky ?

orla and andrew are totally mismatched, no wonder he has to lean over so much

or maybe he's just getting a good eyeful

LurkerOfTheUniverse · 05/10/2008 20:21

LurkerOfTheUniverse · 05/10/2008 20:30

oh i love Andrea Bocelli, this song was played at my wedding while we were signing the register.

andyrobo237 · 05/10/2008 20:55

Gary to go!

Mammina · 05/10/2008 20:55

andyrobo237 · 05/10/2008 20:55

Yes!!! 1 - 0

andyrobo237 · 05/10/2008 20:55

Yes 2-0

andyrobo237 · 05/10/2008 20:56

Yes!!!! Go go go Gary!!!!!

jenk1 · 05/10/2008 20:56

aw poor karen

Mammina · 05/10/2008 20:59

I never thought I'd say this but I feel a bit sorry for Gary now

Carmenere · 05/10/2008 21:01

I feel sorry for Gary, he tried hard and it is humiliating to lose so badly and it was not helped by having to wear such a revolting outfit.

ZebsRoomofHerOwn · 05/10/2008 21:01

Gary didn't look like he made any effort whatsoever in that dance.
Then Karen's 'over my dead body' look when he suggested they could try ballroom 'privately'.

AccidentalMum · 05/10/2008 21:07

LOTU....oh yes...and the lyrics to each song were so poignent (well, Vincent thought so ). He was holding on for dear life at the end of their showdance.

Loving Kristina, her ballet training is showing so much, stunning instep.

Re. Karen's boobs, they do look false (how wide apart , but I think wradrobe hide the mic in their bra sometimes and pad accordingly.

squeaver · 05/10/2008 21:31

I thought Karen's lack of the traditional "he was a pleasure to teach, I love this guy" eulogy spoke volumes.

TurkeyLurkey · 05/10/2008 21:35

Vincent and Flavias dance was amazing, they need to get back together!

I spent the whole of tonights group dance transfixed by Darrens array of overacting facial expressions! Whatever anyone else was doing was a blur. Perhaps its a tactic so we don't look at his feet?

ZebsRoomofHerOwn · 05/10/2008 21:46

LOTU? What's that?

LurkerOfTheUniverse · 05/10/2008 21:47

LOTU....that's me!

TurkeyLurkey · 05/10/2008 21:48

Lurkeroftheuniverse.
Did you think it was a special strictly code?

ranting · 05/10/2008 21:55

Yes Turkey I noticed that about Darren too, wtf was all that gurning about?
