Strictly 2024

Some blind people are though.

I spotted the man who was immediately by his side, eazybee. I love Chris and is bravery. I thought his dance last night was phenomenal. And all credit to Dianne.

He won’t be aware of the flashing lights though, eazybee.

Don't know what it is about Tasha but I find something rather 'manufactured' about her dancing, possibly because she has worked as a professional dancer. To me her undeniably perfect appearance and performance lack personality and passion, and I dislike the too frequent references to bullying throughout the series.
Chris makes very little reference to his lack of vision other than as a joke. I noticed at the end of the opening dance one of the professionals was instantly at his side to guide him off the dance floor, and thought how terrifying it must be to be in an unfamiliar environment surrounded by noise, flashing lights and dozens of people, aware that millions are watching you.

I might have to watch Pete again to check a couple of bits …

Tasha is now my favourite. Her dance was so sharp. I liked it because I'm a ballet fan.

I have always liked Pete, but tonight was not his night. At least he had a sense of humour.

I’ve said this before in previous years, but I find the other dancers rather distracting at Blackpool.

Just watched JB and Lauren, had a job spotting them at times.

Pete's pink trousers will get the votes!

Cross thread!

Those pink trousers! Wowsers!

Crikey - those pink trousers were the bomb.

Feel sorry for Pete - rubbish music and rubbish choreography.

I enjoyed that Charlston with Wynne and Katya.

I didn’t like that CC from Sarah and Vito.

Brilliant Sarah and Vito.

Wow! Wow! W O W! Sarah & Vito! What a routine !

I loved Chris as well.

Chris is fantastic. I always shed some tears when I see what he manages to do.

Terrific opening number!!

Great colour contrast with the silver costumes. Staging at Blackpool brings out the best.

Yes, love the Pet Shop Boys' music.

What a fantastic start!

The Pet Shop Boys plus the Professionals.

Terrific opening number!!

So disappointed to see Shayne go I felt his dancing was way better than Wynne

I totally agree, harrysgran!
