Strictly restarts this Saturday when it will be the pairing up of celebs and pros..... which may even be less cringe-making than usual. grin

I don't know many of this year's celebs, but nothing new to that, and no doubt I shall get hooked in as usual.

Oh dear Wynne, you're becoming your own worst enemy!

Perhaps I won't go and see him after all!

Oh dear! Wynne is in the news again, this time for making a questionable comment to one of the Strictly makeup team.
Apparently he compared his double chins to female genitalia.

Now that is something I would find repulsive. He needs to watch his behaviour carefully.
Also keep his mouth shut.

Wonder what he did say

Sparklefizz Sat 26-Oct-24 18:28:50

OMG!!!!! Craig and Anton!!! I'm speechless.

rafichagran Sat 26-Oct-24 18:34:56

Craig and Anton, freaky and not in a good way. Ugh

Sparklefizz Sat 26-Oct-24 18:48:24

Chris was great, and Pete ... what a surprise! He was very good, wasn't he?

Sara1954 Sat 26-Oct-24 18:49:09

Pete was great, loved the choreography

The twins from The Shining.
So far the dancing and costumes are really good, I love the Halloween special.

rafichagran Sat 26-Oct-24 18:54:09

Pete was very good, I really enjoyed that.

Sparklefizz Sat 26-Oct-24 18:55:17

Wow! Montel was brilliant.
So much good dancing tonight so far.

Sparklefizz Sat 26-Oct-24 19:40:21

Shane's going to poke someone's eye out with that baton!

rafichagran Sat 26-Oct-24 19:42:42

I agree with Craig. I really enjoyed that performance.

Sparklefizz Sat 26-Oct-24 19:55:00

Sarah and Vito - breathtaking!!

Sparklefizz Sat 26-Oct-24 20:05:54

Impressive standard of dancing tonight I don't want anyone to go home. And fabulous costumes and makeup. I've really enjoyed it all.

Millie22 Sat 26-Oct-24 20:07:46

Nikita in suspenders!

Sparklefizz Sat 26-Oct-24 20:08:25

Forgot to mention the music ... that was great too!

Nikita in suspenders!

Couldn’t take my eyes of him!

Grandmadinosaur Sat 26-Oct-24 20:29:04

Some great performances tonight. Can’t call who will be in the dance off.

OMG!!!!! Craig and Anton!!! I'm speechless.

Turned it off after five minutes - all that dressing up for Hallowe'en is just ridiculous and OTT.

We watched a film instead.

Sparklefizz Sun 27-Oct-24 07:37:19

You missed some wonderful dancing though ....

I loved last night’s show. Sarah and Vito’s Argentine tango was the dance of the night for me but I enjoyed every dance.

I feel the judges overmarked Wynne again this week. I think Punam and Wynne might be in the dance off and the judges are likely to save Wynne.

Casdon Sun 27-Oct-24 07:58:18

I do think Punam’s time has come now. My favourites were Tasha and Aljaz, and Jamie and Michelle - he has come on so much in the last couple of weeks.

escaped Sun 27-Oct-24 08:14:24

I was out last night, have just caught up.
It was a good show with excellent choreography for Halloween. Jamie and Michelle, Sarah and Vito for me. I don't want Amy and JB to be in the bottom two.

I agree with everything you say. I would like to see Wynne go after the revolting crude comment he made to the makeup team.

I'm not a lover of the theme weeks and I do hate it when the costumes are so bizarre that they distract from the actual dancing. But I thought last night was definitely one of the better Halloween weeks with a good standard of dancing and slightly more appropriate music than the last couple of weeks.

I was willing Vito to get a grip on Sarah in the first lift!

Sadly I think Punam is in danger, which is a shame because she is on the "journey". With Wynne or possibly JB. Amy is a lovely dancer but her choreography is a bit dancing by numbers with little if any wow factor.

I was surprised how lovely looking JB was without his real hair - I can't get to grips with the men's hairstyling of today. grin
