I was already wondering if there wouldn't be an elimination this week because of Robert leaving. And now Ugo isn't dancing this week now due to back problems.
No Ugo and Oti this week. Hope his back allows him to come back next week. But what happens if they have to drop out after that? Will there be a week with no eliminations I wonder?
Oh dear,they really do need to make sure the contestants are fit enough to do this,I dont think the celebs realise how rigorous this competition is.
Very difficult to do in practice. Do they exclude anybody with any health condition? If not how to determine which are acceptable and which aren't. Robert Webb was checked out by Strictly and those who treated him and was deemed fit to take part.
I see that in Ugo's statement he mentioned a history of back problems (albeit managed). He may be generally extremely fit and healthy, but with the lifts etc. involved it would be a strain on even a 100% healthy back surely?
The thing is that sometimes, with backs (I have a family with 'backs' .... I seem to be the only one without ... so far) you sometimes don't know until you try ... I imagine the muscles they're using for Strictly are a bit different to the ones they use most of the time in rugby.
