Cancer doesn't have to be a death sentence if they catch it early enough. My best friend is in remission from lung cancer atm. Probably helps that he's an neuro-consult but still..
Also my friend survived too. He never said what kind but he survived, and he's just recently finished physio too.

Yeah you always were a worrier, from as long as I've been on DS. Hopefully, she'll be clear. Fingers crossed anyway.

Don't forget I've been around for DS for a while, I de-registered for a bit when you still could too. I don't mean it in a bad way.

I'm earning some man points and watching the world cup. I'm in bed too, and rather knackered myself!

Fingers crossed you don't have to. Unless you want to be at work?

I see there's some rumours of a third Father of the Bride film... this time with the son getting married to his bf. Providing its done well (and the same as the first two) it should be good.

But what should it be called? No doubt some would be uneasy with them using the feminine title, if its not about his daughter. The second one wasn't about a wedding, yet it was called Bride 2, just because it was a sequel.

Should this one be 'Father of the Groom'? Or is that just being overly defensive - does it matter?

What were the first two about?

I remember I told my dad I was marrying my bf for a joke and he nearly dropped there and then, my mum was in on it and we were literally struggling to breath laughing afterwards

You've not seen them?! Classics!!

Steve Martin and Diane Keaton are the parents, and Martin Short plays Franck the Wedding planner.

First one is the planning of the daughter's wedding and the second is to do with her pregnancy.

I'm no good at pranks. I either laugh and give it away or have a guilt trip before going through with the joke.

Harumph!! Just read that Artem is not returning for SCD this year, he's staying wit DWTS instead.

Oh well, at least we've still got Alijaž, Pasha, Kevin and Robin. Newibe Tristan MacManus looks like a good addition..

You just read it? That was revealed weeks ago

James isn't coming back either, and everyone seems to hate him, do you know why? I liked him

I nearly fell out the tree when I first read because I thought you meant Aljaz!

If Pasha and Aljaz both left I'd question my motivation to keep on watching.

Have you heard that Kevin's sister is joining as a dancer too?

I think it was due to him being opinionated and probably clashing with the judges (at least the on air persona).

Same here! lol

No, missed that bit. Good I supposed, DWTS didn't do too bad with the Hough siblings.

Yeah I suppose. He could be quite rude especially with Craig but then that's been encouraged for years!

Well I wasn't a fan, so I'm not fussed!


I see in the SCD subforum there's a rumour of a same-sex couple on the show. Speculation already has suggested Robin and Marcus Collins. Not sure what I make of that. It would still seem a bit of a ratings grab, even if they are a couple in real life.

Outside the show, I do find it odd that traditionally two old ladies can dance together but men would not.

That seems a bit pointless to me, I'd rather they didn't do that. Just keep Strictly traditional.

They had a female same sex partnership on a dance show in Israel I heard. Which was rather surprising to me because I thought they'd be a rather homophobic country.

EDIT - Apparently not. They recognize gay marriage (but only if you're from another country)

I think they're more liberal than you'd imagine. After all they had Dana International represent them at the '97 ESC.

EDIT: I was just looking up the status on marriage as well. lol Great minds think alike.

Seems like there is a proposition by their ruling coalition to pass an civil partnership law.
