    …..

    Did anyone notice how Bobby resembled Mick Jagger in his younger days? What some hip swivels.
    I said exactly that to OH last night … factually although similar I’ve seen better matches, but with the  body type and suppleness there’s enough similarity for him to be a convincing casting in a ‘Rolling Stones -the Early Years’ musical 😂

    Overall I thought it was an excellent show , obviously some dance better than others and some costumes where excellent and other not so , but everyone has different views on these things 
    Always think the CGI is amazing 

    I did think some of the scoring was a bit high for week 3 , particularly Shirley’s 10 

    Looking forward to the results show tonight

    You do have to wonder what criteria they are using sometimes.

    However, the show is on when we have dinner so we record and watch it afterwards and that makes it late for us so we only watched half of it.   Still can't remember names but last week's dance off lady was flat footed and wooden for a jive so will have to go very soon.   Looking forward to seeing the rest this evening swiftly followed by the results on FF so we miss all the faffing.

    The girl fidgeting behind Craig, it crossed my mind that these people have to start queuing early morning to get into a show which starts in the evening the shine of the occasion must wear off a bit for some people.
  • I always fast forward too @Obelixx
    I can't remember the girls name either, but think she will be in the dance off and probably go this week. 
    I've still got last nights recording, will have to go back and look for the fidgety girl, didn't notice it last night 😁

      He had dancing lessons for well over a decade, if memory serves; yet, he was declared the winner over those who had never had a lesson in their lives.  Apparently, he danced better than the rest.  Now, there's a surprise!
    I think it happens every year, some have had training before and some are absolute novices.  I suppose, as many "celebrities" come from the performing arts, it's not surprising that they have had some training.  That training gives them, to say the least, confidence when performing, which others may lack.  How right it is that their training is ignored, I don't think I'm sure...
  • The one that left this week was the one I thought would go. 
    Although, I still have no idea who she is or what she's been in.

    Other than Les Dennis the only other person I’d heard of is Anglia Rippon ?
  • @GWRS.    Each year they become more and more obscure,haven't got a clue who most of them are.
    The BBC usually have someone from EastEnders.

    Hamza and Helen were on Countryfile last night,so I guess they get a bit of presenting work out of it.
    The whole truth is an instrument that can only be played by an expert.
