I definately think the music is much better so far - a great mix of styles. Dave Arch and the band really are great, considering they have to cover everything and can't use the originals.

If they do persist with this, I'll have to stop watching it as I had to with DOI.

SO glad Strictly is back on track. I hope they keep up the good work (and please, no more silly costumes, I mean did you see Jared? He looked ridiculous!).”

I wasn't sure about the line up, but the couples are surprising and entertaining. Bruce and Tess seem more relaxed and funny and somehow it's really working again.”

I entirely agree.
