So, fellow fans, what do we think of the lineup? A very mixed bunch, personally only know of five, I’m sure we will soon have our favourites. Can’t wait for the glitz and glamour to brighten the long dark nights looming?

I also enjoyed Westlife, probably because we did not have the audience screeching and cheering everytime a dancer wiggled their toes. I drives DGS and I crazy.
Enjoying the series so far.

I reckon the costume dept thought Greg needed taking down a peg or two ……..he looked horrendous in that outfit.??

Josianne Mon 18-Oct-21 15:52:24

Hmmm

I see Judi has now tested positive for Covid so will be missing this coming Saturday.

Josianne Thu 21-Oct-21 20:50:41

Oh dear. Wasn't she in the dance off twice which means she was probably going to go this week?

kittylester Thu 21-Oct-21 21:08:46

Which means someone who might not have gone, will.

GrannyMacawell Thu 21-Oct-21 21:30:41

Well we dont know if she would have gone and tom and ugo have both missed weeks.

TillyTrotter Thu 21-Oct-21 21:37:32

I hope Judi isn’t really poorly with it, the not-being-able-to-dance is secondary.
It’s not the half way point yet so missing a week won’t be too important.

Good on Tilly for speaking out against the LBC radio presenter, Steve Allen, who made derogatory comments about her body shape. What an obnoxious little man to speak about a young girl in such a way. news.sky.com/story/amp/strictly-come-dancings-tilly-ramsay-hits-back-at-radio-host-steve-allen-who-called-her-chubby-little-thing-12439328

Disgusting Grannynw. No wonder young girls become anorexic. ?

Sparklefizz Fri 22-Oct-21 07:44:18

Well done to Tilly for calling him out on it and standing up for herself.

Josianne Fri 22-Oct-21 08:06:24

Good on her. I bet her dad is seething but good on him too to keep out!

Sparklefizz Sat 23-Oct-21 07:48:55

Tilly's dad has no right to be "seething" as he has fat-shamed a number of people himself in his time, including Jamie Oliver.

I see Judi has now tested positive for Covid so will be missing this coming Saturday.

There was the problem of unvaccinated people at the beginning of this year’s series, has the been cleared up now?

Nicola Adams had to withdraw early last year, will she be allowed to compete in another series, if rules have been changed?

Josianne Sat 23-Oct-21 09:27:10

I think once we get down to say the final 6 or so, then no one should be allowed back. It should just be a case of the last man or woman standing!

Sparklefizz Sat 23-Oct-21 09:59:41

I agree Josianne

TillyTrotter Sat 23-Oct-21 14:47:14

It was slightly different for Nicola as it was her pro. partner Katya Jones who tested positive,
whereas Judi Love has tested positive this week and not her pro partner Graziano.

TillyTrotter Sat 23-Oct-21 14:48:02

Gordon Ramsey has always been potty-mouthed IMO.

Sweetpeasue Sat 23-Oct-21 15:04:00

Just seen here the comments said by Steve Allen about Tilly. Once again(and I know it happens to men sometimes) it's a female's looks being spoken of this way, in this instance her weight---and by a male. Silly man, ought to know better. Hope Tilly will not take this personally.

Deedaa Sat 23-Oct-21 15:35:38

DD and I were joking yesterday that the final will probably be between the two couples who are still standing but who may have missed half the dances earlier on.

Calendargirl Sat 23-Oct-21 19:41:30

Tress’s dress looks a bit odd somehow. Is it a VPL that spoils it?

TillyTrotter Sat 23-Oct-21 19:57:13

Both Adam & Tom have upped their game this week and will be leaving others behind ….

TillyTrotter Sat 23-Oct-21 19:57:49

Dan’s dance was a nice one too.

Sweetpeasue Sat 23-Oct-21 20:00:57

Oh wow. That showed em Tilly!

TillyTrotter Sat 23-Oct-21 20:04:03

She’s a super dancer.
