I've just read this Newsletter as well and wondered how they are planning the show.....

Couples will start dancing on Friday 1st, but they don't face the judges until Saturday? What's that about do you think?

Possibly only half of them will be dancing each night.

I think you've misread that. It should have started on a new line really. Couples will all face the judges as usual after they've danced. Or that's how I'm reading it anyway.

It's 7 couples facing the judges on Friday, 7 on Saturday, confirmed by BBCstrictly on twitter. The newsletter is trying to say that over the first weekend all couples face the judges for the first time (i.e. over both shows), it just doesn't do so particularly clearly.

Yes, there's no way it could be live - too much of a waste of time bringing dancers and a new audience in for a half hour show! Takes away from the dancers' rehearsal time and one day off!
