I went to the matinee showing at Bristol Hippodrome on Weds 30th and I thought it was fantastic throughout.

Natalie and Ian danced the first dance then later Ian came on and said she was injured so sadly only saw Ian again when he briefly joined in the disco dancing.

I would love to see it all over again and enjoyed it so much that it has inspired my very first post even though I've been a DS member for ages now!

I went to Bristol on Tues and am still on a high. I couldn't believe how good it was! My minor crush on Matthew had been lying dormant for a little while but has now seriously escalated!

Anyone know if it's likely to be recorded for DVD?

I don't think there are any plans to release it on dvd which is a shame as I know a lot of people who would buy it.Many of my friends didn't go as it didn't come to the North east so they would buy it

Thanks, tumblesangel. That's a shame.

Ola said on twitter the other day that she doesn't know of any plans for a DVD, but if you go onto Greytops thread there's an email address for the production company if you want to email and ask (or hint that they should do one!)

I'm seeing it tomorrow at Milton Keynes! Can't wait! Does anyone know if the stage door is easy to find as I have never been there before.

My turn has finally come! I'm going to the matinee tomorrow and I have awesome seats. I'm less than impressed with the weather forcast of 32°C considering I'm on the train and tube for quite a while but never mind!

Waves hello as we were at the same show. I took my Mum as part of her birthday present and she loved it. We did think it surprising that there weren't any back up dancers in case of injury.

I don't think there was really anyone they could get to do it, unless they hired a dancer to travel as back-up the whole tour. None of the other current or past Strictly pros were free to do it - they were touring themselves or have just finished touring. And the tour got to the last 2 weeks before anyone got injured, and it seems Natalie's injury was a freak accident in rehearsals rather than due to the pressure of touring, so they clearly had taken a lot of precautions against getting injured, and couldn't have predicted it would happen to Natalie when it did.

Plus of course it would have taken a while to establish how long she needs to recover.

Well Natalie was still not able to dance this afternoon. It was an enjoyable show, although very hot in the theatre. We were in the fourth row back (fortunate that a large chunk of the third row had not turned up although I'm pretty sure the tickets must have been sold) and so we had a great view, but could also see the sweat flying off the dancers.

Because I hadn't seen the other shows, it didn't seem flat to me. I really loved VIncent and Flavia (have always liked them but didn't appreciate just how good they really were), and of course Matthew. But it was an all round great performance from everyone.

I loved it yesterday. We were front row and I was a bit worried we'd have to crane our necks but it was a perfect view. I knew it would be good but it was truly sensational. It was very hot in there, I was melting and I wasn't even dancing!
