Groovychook Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I'm not familiar with the last two either! Looking forward to the new series but will miss Gleb... Sorry to hear that this will be Len's last series too, although he did seem to be very grumpy last year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I LOVE Will Young Hope he wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clucker1 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Will Young! Yes!!!!!!!! I read about him being in Strictly last week and I was soooo pleased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula123 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Step daughter is obsessed with Will Young, we are going to see him in Taunton bank holiday weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Will Young got on my nerves when he did Comic Relief Bake Off, whereas Ed Balls who I had previously had a low opinion of, I warmed to a bit more. YD was very please to see Ore Oduba in the line up, she is rather partial to the BBC Breakfast Sport presenter Louise Redknap announced today, OH will be pleased, I find her a bit annoying really, but we shall see. I always start off thinking that I won't like or don't know the contestants and always change my mind . I love Strictly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandmashazzie Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Saw the full line up today and as not into soaps or sports I don't 'know' hardly anyone. That said can't wait. I do love Strictly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clucker1 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Oooooooer, what a fabulous program tonight was (apart from the terrible so,called jokes by Tess and Claudia). The dancing by the professionals is phenomenal especially the Congo !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 The space rocket beginning was cheesy beyond belief looks and interesting mix not too many awful dancers, but looks like Ed will be first out of the door. Can't wait for the live shows, I love Strictly season, warming meals eaten out of bowls in front of my favourite tv show, bliss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Loving Ed Balls . His Charleston last week was wonderful. He won't win but he's a good sport and very funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I like him too, hope he stays for a bit. Unlike Bruno who is so false he gets on my nerves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I hope that his reasons for leaving were genuine, because he has let down his partner. I wonder I feel it was a snap decision otherwise Tamika could have stayed. He struck me as someone who didn't like it when things didn't go his way when he did celebrity bake off. Ed needs to go next week otherwise we will lose someone else good. I thought that his charleston was fun but the mask routine made me cringe. We are going to see him at our local lierature festival on Friday, bet he thought he would be long gone by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Did anyone else think Anastacia and Brendon's dance off was amazing. I fell asleep for 'the Jive' must watch it on catch up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 You must see Ore's jive, I watched it again later along with the other top jives from previous series. His knocked the spots off the others. Ore has such a natural talent for dance, as far as I can tell he has had no stage school training unlike Danny, who is also very naturally talented. The standard of this series is outstanding. If I have even half of the energy and flexibility of Lesley Joseph when I am her age I will be very pleased.

Grandmashazzie Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Will Young is getting quite bad press if it is to be believed. He seems quite a perfectionist and I feel bad for his professional dancer that he threw the towel in after a bit of critism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 The sketches between the dances are really irritating me , why can't they show them practicing like they used to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 I know not even funny. very lacklustre for Halloween. Ed Balls was most entertaining I thought. The songs weren't even spooky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
