INJURY UPDATE: Denise Van Outen has been diagnosed with “mild whiplash” after being injured rehearsing this week’s Jive. #scd #ittakestwo

I think Strictly should be renamed Strictly Come Disaster

EDIT: or are BBC Strictly teasing......

Gosh, who will be next. One of the Olympians???

What is her dance this week ? Must be energetic to cause whiplash.

According to her Twitter she'll be "performing in pain" on Saturday as her physio says it won't be mended by then

jive

Jive, I think.

I don't think they should risk Haloween this year. It's cursed enough.

Whiplash?
Just *how* fast was James pulling her back into hold?

just quoting the BBCStrictly twitter feed - I have no idea

Well then she really ought to go to a decent osteopath! Mild whiplash is hardly serious.

Another grasp for a nothing story to add to the 'tension'.

Much ado about nothing methinks

Sorry.
The question was more directed at the Beeb quote than you!

James' nose collided with Denise's neck. It was survival of the hardest.

OMG!!!!! Did she break a nail as well?

I had to wear a surgical collar when I had whiplash.

Should be an interesting look for the jive!

Arrrggghhh, sounds really painful. Are those two going to turn up on Saturday in casts and bandages? What with James' broken nose, Denise's neck.

Oh no

BIB - Possibly. We'll have to see what happens.

Denise has been in the press every other day with some story or another since it was announced she was in this year's line-up.

The St John's ambulance guys loitering in front of Dave Arch, on the stairs and interspersed along the front row... they're going to take the tone right down

Wait until Celebrity Splash hits your screens. Then it will be news if one of the celebs gets away unscathed.

This would not be an attempt at the sympathy vote would it

Whiplash my tuchas!

Of course now she's injured, Denise will have problems dancing the jive with any great speed on Saturday. Unless of course she somehow makes a remarkable recovery!

I doubt they need a sympathy vote, frankly.

I'm sure it'll be fine.

I'm sorry I've been away for so long, but I'm back amongst you now.

I'm not quite sure what it is you want me to do for you, but I always try and aim to please.

I missed what they had to say about Denise on It Takes Two, I'm sorry to hear that she has had some kind injury, I hope its not too bad.

Welcome back

Whiplash ? I thought props weren't allowed ?
