Strictly Come Dancing 2023

I am not a fan of Leyton for various reasons but in fairness to him, he was invited to join and he accepted. He will probably reach the last three but the general public on the whole is sensible and I think that somebody like Ellie will win.

That’s exactly what I think, but in the meantime, I shall enjoy his dancing.

but his predilection for performing as a woman, and not in the spirit of pantomime, does bother me

He does rather endorse the idea that it looks better to have mixed sex couples, rather than same sex. 🤣🤣🤣

Good point Mollygo, and his talent shows he can dance any rôle - male, female, maybe even furry cat!

I have just rewatched Ellie and Vito's dance and I really think the choreography is absolutely fantastic and unusual and extremely fast, and Ellie was able to put it into practice. I have no dance training but to me it looks amazing, and I'm coming to the conclusion that Vito is the best pro.

I googled him and he has a long list of championships to his name.

I agree Sparklefizz. I loved Ellie and Vito’s dance. They’re my favourite couple and I really hope they go on to win.

I loved Ellie from the beginning and really hope she goes on to win. Vito is a great partner for her as they both seem to get on well.

... considering the battering he's taken from her. 😂

Have just looked it up to see if Ellie has previous dance experience.

Apparently she did ballet and tap as a youngster, but not ballroom and Latin.

I really like her, and have voted for her every week.

I love Ellie , Angela Scanlon and Nigel . . I think they should all go through this week because Amanda has dropped out and theyve all.put the graft in so.should be rewarded .

I really think Ellie is a very strong contender to win this year, she has been consistently good, no dodgy weeks

Erm why was Nikita wearing a skirt (opening number?) Layton's influence?!!

Goodness knows!!

Incredible opening dance.

When they are all shown backstage waiting to go on, I start to feel nervous myself! Thank goodness I don't have to actually dance

Adam! No!!
Did you see Nikita's shocked face?

Loved the opening dance
Surprised Adam is in the dance off, I voted for him

I love Adam. Unless he makes a lot of mistakes because of nerves he'll be safe. 🤞

I watched last night with my 17 year old granddaughter. She predicted Adam and Zara in the dance off and Adam to be saved.

If Zara's in the dance off with him, Adam will definitely be safe.

Yes, sounds mean, but I hope he’s up against Zara

Oh of courseSparklefizz Anyone could be in the dance off but hopefully it will be Zara.

What Sara says.
I thought the chaps were overshadowed by nearly all the girls last night. (just my opinion).

Yes Sara1954-- I felt mean after I'd said it.

Adam's so light on his feet! He's a pleasure to watch.
