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

Does anyone know anything about this????

Yes, Lisa Snowden is definitely going to be this year's hair-tossing irritant. Like Rachel and Cherie, and have a soft spot for poor, galumphing Jessie.

And I know it's horribly obvious to fancy Mark Foster but - never mind the body - that salt-and-pepper hair will do it for me every time...

NomDePlume · 22/09/2008 11:17

Foster is gorgeous but I think he looked AWFUL in his penguin suit. He looked like he had a pinhead.

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 22/09/2008 11:18

Claudia - it was the lack of heavy eyeliner that made her look so different. Plus the red tops have reported that her 'marriage is in crisis'.

I heart Claudia.

NomDePlume · 22/09/2008 11:20

@ tabloids.

Claudia is ace. ITT is my fave bit of Strictly coming back !

Snaf · 22/09/2008 11:20

I heart Claud too - yay for ITT this (and every!) evening.

Agree about penguin suit. He looks best in rehearsal, I think [drooling saddo]

NomDePlume · 22/09/2008 11:21

He looks superb in a t-shirt.

DH is gutted that Flavia has gone.

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 22/09/2008 11:40

I havt Sky+ ITT, and I am training ds2 (15 days old) to feed and/or sleep from 6.30-7.00 Mon-Fri

mumdebump · 22/09/2008 11:49

Claudia is fab! I thought she wasn't quite herself too, i.e. not quite as mad as the box of frogs she usually is. Hope she's back to ,er, normal on ITT tonight.

LaVie · 22/09/2008 11:59

I see Claudia was there with her mum, is it Eve Pollard? Anyway, maybe she needed moral support? If whatb the tabloids say is true which, lets face it, isn't that likely!

DrNortherner · 22/09/2008 12:06

What has Claudia done to her hair? It was awful and aged her so much.

I love Tess and thought her dress looked fab on her.

I alos like Lisa Snowden and Jessie Wallace.

MaryAnnSingleton · 22/09/2008 12:14

Think Claudia's hair is a BIG mistake - much,much better before...maybe marriage crisis has caused her to seek a new look ?
Don't care for Jessie one bit

VanillaPumpkin · 22/09/2008 12:33

I heart Claudia too, but hate her new hair. She looks so much older and I usually LOVE her style.
I am so so so happy this is back. All the sparkles to take us right through to Christmas.
Please please please vote Gary Rhodes out next week though. He was irritating before he started dancing. Gah! Not too bothered about Phil going, but I will miss Flav. Noticed her and Vincent are still dancing together. DH is a bit more interested now he has noticed the new Kiwi Holly???
Apart from Gary I love them all .

I noticed Erin looked different and put it down to a new hair colour and good fake tan. Will look closer now. She looks like Celine Dion imo.

Anaiasmum · 22/09/2008 14:29

ooh, I'm so glad this is back too. Dad is on bathing duty for the next 3 mths. DD was just a few days old when this started last year and fortunately managed to watch most, but I did miss ITT.

Agree about Claudia's hair, though listening to her show on R2, I think she's still as nutty as ever.

Don't think I'll like pouty hair-flicky Lisa Snowdon either, agree that Gary should have gone, but I'm pleased that Don and Lilia were saved. He loked like he was enjoying it so much more than Phil - his expression was soooo fake and cringeworthy!!

LOve Tess and Brice - it just wouldn't be the same without them :O

DownyEmerald · 22/09/2008 15:05

I heart Claudia, but her new hair made her look normal - she isn't normal, she's special. And her bloke should know that too - not having a faintest ideas about marriage rumours.

I think Erin is weird, she can look like a totally different person. Dancing, her hair usually up and back gives her one look, training, usually down everything face-wise looks different. I've thought this for years and never been able to work our how her face works. I'd probably walk past her in the street though you'd think she'd be easy to spot.

Lilia deff a bulge. Put it down to too tight pants myself but pg would be interesting!

Always liked Mark Foster but never on TV enough before now, happily thinking about him learning all the dances and being on every week.

VanillaPumpkin · 22/09/2008 15:07

I do think Lilia and Ola just have more rounded tummies. I seem to remember we were speculating on pregnancies last year too .

bagsforlife · 22/09/2008 15:11

What does ITT mean??? Somebody please tell me. I like Claudia too,

VanillaPumpkin · 22/09/2008 15:12

It Takes Two BBC2 - 6.30pm.

NomDePlume · 22/09/2008 15:19

Yes, I thought Lilia might be pg last year too.

Lilia has a much more 'real' figure, I think.

YeahBut · 22/09/2008 15:28

I love this thread!!!!
Huge fans of SCD in the house. I'm a big fan of Austin and John Sergeant at the moment. Need to see more of the girls to decide on my fave.

Bucharest · 22/09/2008 15:33

I don't like Karen's smugness.....need to scuttle off and look at Erin on SCD website as haven't seen any of it yet....
Anyone notice how Karen's face fell when she saw she'd got a middle-aged chappie again, as opposed to some 18yr old Eastender....

Showmeheaven · 22/09/2008 16:19

I read a while ago, probably in the mail , that Flavia & Matt had split up because she was back dancing with Vincent. Anyone else hear this ?

Claudia's hair wasn't great, but I was sick of her heavy fringe & panda eyed look. She defo needed a change.

I googled Erin's age. She was born on St. Patricks Day 1975, that makes her 33!!! She defo looks older than that, doesn't she ? (sorry Erin if you're reading).

NomDePlume · 22/09/2008 16:31

I do think ballroom dancing is quite aging anyway, the frocks and make up are very aging.

NomDePlume · 22/09/2008 16:34

Matt struck me as very immature anyway. FFS, Vincent is Flavia's professional dance partner, I know Matt is young but really, he needs to grow up if he can't handle it.

Showmeheaven · 22/09/2008 16:38

Yea, absolutely. Flavia is hardly going to give up all that she worked for with Vincent for luv sick puppy Matt.

VanillaPumpkin · 22/09/2008 16:45

I still think it must be difficult to dance with someone you used to love and live with and split up with for a boy !
Vincent and Flavia are AMAZING together though so I was glad to see it. True professionals, or the Tabloids were full of crap .....
