Grandmashazzie Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Go Debbie,go. Amazing for her age. I might start voting for once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Poor reverend. His partner had the most revealing "dress" of all. He definitely had a hard time trying to figure out were to hold her... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 OMG - not the "lovely Debbie MGee"! We only have Netflix and Amazon Prime now, so all these things are beyond my scope now. But from the comments it sounds fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Blooming Ada! Look at the lovely Debbie McGee go! Fair play. I watched a fair few. I liked Chizzy with her boogie fever - she was having the best time ever, which for me seems the best part of it. Not too keen on the serious ones, but I love the jive. I always wished I could do that - even tried via youtube (before tripping over my big feet) so I think I shall still be a secret wannabe jiver - have to wait for his lordship to go to work. Yet I found Morris dancing much easier! Thanks for the linky Puddytails. Edited to add I like Nadiya and Davood overall. They really click.

Valkyrie Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Just remembered when I was 10 my mum made me go to ballroom dancing lessons (run by one of our school dinner ladies), but I love doing the polka and waltzing - but I was tall and always did the lead! Not many boys - that were anywhere near my height - and not many boys at all! Went to a morris festival with a friend and we had a dance - a nice young lad asked me to dance and there we were fighting to lead in a polka! Not one of my better moments - he gave up while I took over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I can imagine!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Crikey bit of a shock to see Chizzie go over Brian. I'm afraid that the latter had about as much musicality and rhythm as a cardboard cut-out, whereas Chizzie was fun to watch and obviously enjoying herself.

Valkyrie Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 The Brian fan club was bigger. He doesn't do anything - the girl does all the work while he struts. *cough peacock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I think that he made his partner feel very uncomfortable by constantly planting kisses on her! I thought Chizzy should have stayed too, I smell a rat!! I do wish that the little gymnastic one can't remember her name at this late hour, needs to calm the tricks and stick to the dancing , she seems to like to use strong men to make her look good. Do love a bit of glamour on a Saturday night though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 I expected Charlotte to go. She was dire. I loved Chizzie's enthusiasm - and she could dance, which is more than can be said about Brian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmashazzie Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Yes Charlotte wasn't great,but I expect Brendan has a big fan base who vote.Am still marvelling at Debbie. This year seems to be few excellent dancers and a lot who are terrible,it will be interesting to see how they improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 First time watching strictly, delighted but was not at all surprised at Debbie's performance. She is disciplined, hard working and a very professional experienced performer as was Paul. I was surprised when I heard she was on it as not having seen it before I thought the programme was looking for celebrities to try something they would find a challenge. Glad the show explained why people were famous as I only recognised some, although still no idea who the blond older guy is. Bewildered by Claudia's make-up, looks a little like the sort of look I'd have tried as a teenager. I've never seen her or Tessa in anything before and they come across as lovely but the make-up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Only dipped in and out very briefly on the one occasion but thought that the couple worth voting off were Claudia and Tess (a)? Equally those people sitting behind the desk thing were not very good either....somewhat static so maybe they should go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Some very good dancers, and some really dire ones too... much as I love Reverend Richard, he really hasn't any flair for dancing and Charlotte is stiff and wooden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandmashazzie Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Me too. I always think Brendan expects too much from his partner and expects them to be able to do complicated,fast routines from week one. I thought the poor girl looked terrified.

Valkyrie Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) Wow Debbie!!! Sadly I think the Rev did better last time - and he looked happy then, this time was too stern Flash. This time I think the Wonder Woman (Susan?) routine wasn't very good. But hey ho what do I know. I also preferred whoever did the Charleston last week Ruth? And the Top Gun girl - does she remind anyone else of Kim Basinger? Edited October 8, 2017 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
