SCD Week 6 (Halloween) Discussion Thread - Sat 6.30pm/Sun 7.20pm

cwickham · 01/11/14 - 16:49

As announced elsewhere on the forum, one of Claudia's children is unwell and Zoe Ball will be co-hosting tonight.

Dances:

Alison & Aljaz - American Smooth to "Wuthering Heights" by Kate Bush
Caroline & Pasha - Samba to "Le Freak" by Chic
Frankie & Kevin - Tango to "Defying Gravity" from Wicked
Jake & Janette - Paso Doble to "Black Betty" by Ram Jam
Judy & Anton - American Smooth to "Cruella De Vil" from 101 Dalmatians
Mark & Karen - Jive to "Prologue" from Little Shop of Horrors
Pixie & Trent - Tango to "Danger! High Voltage" by Electric Six
Scott & Joanne - Foxtrot to the theme from The Addams Family
Simon & Kristina - Paso Doble to "Poison" by Alice Cooper
Steve & Ola - Charleston to "Dem Bones Dem Bones" by Kay Starr
Sunetra & Brendan - Jive to "Tainted Love" by Gloria Jones

I've just noticed there's only one song previously used on a Halloween show this year (apart from one used as a group dance), which is better going than three recycled-from-Halloween songs last year.

I would have though Michael Jackson's Thriller would have been a good choice for one of the boys. (Not Scott)

Hi Everyone, just logging on before I have my tea. Good Luck to Zoe and that Claudia is back next week after her child recovers.:)

Hi all, im looking forward to Zoe on the show tonight, i do like Claudia though but i'll be interested to see how Zoe copes.

I just read an article in Dailymail about Simon. Seems he was very depressed and contemplated suicide before Strictly! Not sure about the timing of this article though?

Evenin all. Adore Halloween week, hope the pros have a good dance lined up for 'Sunday' to make up for the barn fiasco

the last thing strictly needs to do is go down the road of other shows with the sob stories - another article somewhere about Pixie and her brother. Feel for Simon if he has depression cos it is not easy and he has had a bad few years with bankrupcy and whatnot but the timing of the article seems a tad off.

On a lighter note the Daily Mirror says Judy is to have dalmations and a flying car and is a big number - so that is where this weeks show budget went then:D

I will really miss Claud tonight but of course, she needs to be where she is needed, at home with her sick child. I really hope the little one gets better soon.

I do like Zoe. I will enjoy tonight but probably less than I would were Claud there. I am looking forward to seeing all the Halloween interpretations in the dances!

Apparently Pixie's costume for tonight is extraordinary - I'm thinking lit light bulbs of some description !

Cheryl423 · 01/11/14 - 18:51

Seaside lady - I hope you heard that from me ! It truly is. I hope the dance matches it because both Pixie and Trent look phenom ( as Darcey would say)!

I love Halloween week - it's easily my favourite apart from the final - and it's easy to see the care and attention that has gone into making all of the celebs and their partners look amazing tonight. Bring it on !

Yes Cheryl - I also remember Zoe hinting on ITT about her costume being " electric " or something, and the song is Danger ! High Voltage - stands to reason then !! Can't wait, she'll look amazing

I'm sorry to heard Claudia's child is ill, and I hope he/she gets well soon. I'll miss Claudia, but I like Zoe too. (Unfortunately, the thread about Zoe replacing Claudia tonight has too much criticism of Zoe and Claudia for me. I hope this tread doesn't go the same way.)

Anyway ... I'm looking forward to tonight's show.
