I'm not sure who to support yet, there seems to be a lot of very nice peeps and so I'm happy to just enjoy this year.
My main concern is how to keep up with all my old muckers on DS, I just hope we all end up supporting the same celeb/pro. It wont be the same if I don't have a 'home' somewhere on here with all the lovely swoonies.”

Knocks on glittery Kartem door to say hellloooooo for this year's Strictly !!!
Recently back from holidays so still playing catch up, not helped by also whacking my foot against the ruddy door frame which resulted in a broken toe (and language that can be best described as being like an over-ripe brie left outisde on a hot afternoon
) and catching a stonker of a cold. Still have manged to catch up the Strictly launch show (& Bake Off) in between all the hobbling around and snuffling - it's like being a defective hedgehog. Loverllly to see the old swoonsters back again (not old as in age before I land myself in
) so I'm quoting Nooney as I'm too lazy to think for myself right now
. Thanks as ever to Wrenny & Soupy , and errr anyone else I may have missed, for keeping up the thread with posts that I'm trying to read back over right now. Wrenster I agreed with a lot of your run down of the couples, particularly Pixie & Trent who just seem monumentally Ken & Barbie to me, still 'tis v.early days.
Already liking Claudia hosting with Tess and not missing Brucie but I actually thought they did the handover pretty tastefully and without over-milking it (by a Brucie definition of over-milking anyway)

Managed to watch the opening show live

but am determined to join in again this year. I even know one of the contestants........ Scott, he is lovely so I hope he manages to stay a few weeks even though he can't dance.”

I know nothing of radio 1 dj's (being a 6 music gal) but thanks for the inside note on Scott, Joanne seems to be an ideal pairing for him. Is Bakka still watching, fuming,shouting ????

And just so I know that all is well in Strictly DS land there's even a good old thread on the main page about Aliona being rude - it's like nothing ever changed




), so I might find myself rooting for her anyway.
