How many faces do you have Keith. Certainly more than two :)
He's trying to get in my good books again. Next he'll be asking me to lend him some money :lol:

In truth I only watch for the lovely Jowita but don't tell my wife!

Two faced :shock: :lol:

I prefer to call it adapting....

As in…accepting and adjusting to new or unexpected situations by staying flexible, positive, and unconfrontational :angel: :lol: :wave:

We still like it. Especially Amy.

Well, it looks like a good few of them have potential, however, an early exit looks on the card for Thomas Skinner, swiftly followed by the irritating cross dresser, with Chris Robshaw needing a leg transplant if he is to go much further.

It’s certainly not for me, but Mrs b likes it so she records it and can fast forward through the pfaff.
She just watches the actual dancing.
As I say, not for me, but she puts up with hours of football, Rugby, formula one etc, so I dare not complain 😂

What a fantastic opening show…loved it :clap:

There were plenty of Wows with Motsi being the stand out performance…I don’t know which diet she’s been on but it worked. :thumbup: :clap:

Lewis Cope looks a worthy fav…He reminds me so much of me. :)

Karen Carney was the top goal scorer, and was certainly the lady of the match. :clap: :clap:

George Clark has potential. :clap:

If I can still get 10/1 about Thomas Skinner being the first elimination I’ll be having a fiver on him.

I can only think she was trying to make he/she la Voix feel at home.

La Voix was on Iona last week, how is that possible if he/she/it was supposed to be on strictly?

I started to watch a recording but gave up when I didn't know who any of the contestants were. I will watch next week when someone first gets eliminated, well I'll watch a recording so I can fast forward through some bits. Can't say I'm a devoted fan of Strictly but I tend to watch more when the numbers have been reduced.

I don’t know what the hair stylist was playing at but Craig, Anton and Shirley looked like they were auditioning for a part in the Adams family…the sylist must have used a can of spray on each of them.

Some good dances tonight with George looking like there is a lot more to come.

So, it’s bye, bye time tomorrow with La Voix, Thomas and Ross looking favourites to take the bus home.

So, it’s hello La Voix, Goodbye Thomas…I knew I should have had a fiver on him.

I was wondering if Amy was paired with Tom knowing that Tom would not be around long in case being with someone stronger would have had an impact on her health again.

When is the Beeb going to stop this pretext that Sunday's show is live? Not only does everyone know that it is recorded on a Saturday night but some of the recorded show contains pre recorded items such as the group dance. There was no way that the professional dancers who were with Claudia one minute could have got changed and be doing the group dance 10 seconds later!

Has everyone given up?

Looks as if Alex might be a dark horse - just as long as OL doesn't jinx her by putting on a bet
