    I wanted to hitch up the sleeves on Tess's dress.

    The dance off will be interesting tonight Who are the viewers for/against....

    I thought the whole bodice needed hitching up and de-bulking.  Definitely not couturier class.

    I rather think Ashley and Pasha may be in trouble again.   Their quickstep was excellent but not as emotionally engaging as the others.

    I sometimes think that by the time Vicky Gill and her team have finished the dancers costumes, it's 10 minutes to the live show and they realise that Tess and Claudia have nothing to wear. "Here, this'll do, put this on". That's what it looks like sometimes!  I assume they have their own stylists, but l agree with Joyce and Obelixx, Tess's dress definitely needed some alterations.
  • I love Claudia’s rather individual style ... if i had her figure and her job that’s the sort of look I’d go for  B)

    As I understand it they both get their outfits on loan from designers and boutiques wanting the publicity.   Some of Tess's have been stunning and suit her figure beautifully but last night's was horrid.   

    While we're on, what is it with Zoe Ball and blouses with ties that come down near her knees?

    I like Claudia and her sense of humour, although l know it's not to everyone's taste. She always seems to know what to say to the dancers when they've finished performing, whether it's gone well or not. And last week's "Lindyhopathon" confusion was just made for her."I know what you're thinking at home......"
  • You did, as far as I can see.   What else do the quotemarks around 'escort' mean?

    I must start taking more notice of what they wear 💃🏼
    Looking forward to tonight’s dance of 
  • It’s true what they say ... some women can be other women’s worst enemies ... whatever happened to respect for two women doing a difficult job incredibly professionally?  
    When BF left there were doubts in some quarters whether women could present the show without an authoritative male at the helm ... it’s just like it used to be with female newsreaders/politicians/business people ... so often it wasn’t men who put them down it was women bitching about what they were wearing. 
    It’s as if we’re still in the 1950s  :s:'( I sometimes despair ...
