That tweet makes me want to see the highlights show from today even more, Lucy! :cool: I see it's on Iplayer now but I'm too tired to watch it tonight.
Watched the women's all round final tonight. It was Beth Tweddle's time to shine, but Louis gave some good input as well but not a lot , so not much missed really. Of course he looked divine. :cool:
Woohoo! Out at the moment but hope I'll be home in time to see this!!!
@louissmith1989:
9am in Antwerp- Belgium and I'm performing salsa in the street with Matt Baker and @bethtweddlenews haha. U better watch BBC1 at 2.30pm 😂
Nope, that article was not posted! So thank you very much!!
Well done to Max Whitlock for his silver medal on the Pommel. I loved how nervous Louis was watching him! :') And his comments afterwards were so lovely and supportive.
I really hope Louis is invited to continue doing Gymnastics commentary for a long time, he's so great at it. #thumbsup
Hi everyone! Hope you're all enjoying Louis at the gymnastics in Antwerp . I've captured a few moments from the Strictly Intro for today's show featuring Louis (as well as my usual Matt Baker pics ) and also a couple from the beginning of the commentary. Hope you like them

I think he will be, he's certainly doing a great job. He was so nervous for Max wasn't he!? Bless him.
October fun fact; Louis' family have 3 Cavalier King Charles spaniels, Simba, Nala & Snoop Will we ever learn anything new? :D
Edit: Blimey, thanks for all the pics kittenkong42!!
Ta for the fun fact, Lucy! Maybe we'll get some new stuff in next year's calendar. Although we keep so up to date on what's going on in his life, I bet there'll be nothing we don't already know even then! :cool:
Hey, Lucy! Thanks for the article. Saw it this morning. Can't see Louis in the Bruno role myself. I think he'd be more of a Darcy, maybe? Definitely not Craig or Len, that's for sure!! :eek:
Yes, I did see him on the edge of his seat yesterday! I think in his mind, he was doing that routine right along with Max!!
I'm sure today's programme will be on Iplayer so you can catch it later. Although, I imagine the list of shows you probably need to catch up on since you've been away, is getting quite long!! :eek:
& a very nice top it is too! I hope to catch up on iplayer if I get chance. How did Louis cope with Kristian doing the vault or wasn't he commentating?
No he didn't join in the commentary for the vault today. Just general analysis with Matt and Beth. They seem to only roll him out for pommel routines at the moment. Hopefully there'll be more chances for him to commentate on the other apparatus in future. I'm sure his knowledge is more than adequate. :cool:
Haha! Louis always says he's 'not retired'! :rolleyes: Personally I'd be thrilled if he gave it one more go because then I'd hopefully get to see him do a pommel horse routine live!! But it will surely take some serious effort to get back to the level of some of these gymnasts we've seen this weekend! :eek:
That wonderful quote from Louis seemed to really resonate with people on twitter yesterday! One of the reasons I think he has a future in sports commentary.
