the Rhumba, even without the definitive dance guide I do think the rhumba needs some sort of explanation

pointing at a distant bus whilst looking pained that it is the wrong number, then finally flinging yourself on the floor as you realise it is raining all whilst dressed in a see through sheet.
All the time, whilst some alarmed passer by tries to stop you throwing yourself at it.

All future rhumbas will be viewed with these mental images!

The dance catalogue is worth resurrecting if anyone could find it, at least we would know what they were supposed to be doing. I think it was originally posted by one of the Nancy's,

I think Fancynancy or it could be Nancywith numbers.

But yes I think we should send them all to Scott Mills he would love them !

I have a talent for that. Someone on a different forum has a totally different view of landrover defenders because of something I said.

Tiny Tree Frog - goes back to his salsa (I think) with Susanna when he was meant to look like Indiana Jones but looked more like a Tiny Tree Frog leaping across lilypads at the beginning (can't remember who came up with it).
I wonder if TTF will do a routine this year that will force us to rename him? A Samba with Alison that gets him called Squished Fruit Fly or something?

Snerk. Also snerk at the roomba descriptions...much better than mine.

*Goes off grumbling aka Len at how all the bloody rules of the show, such as they were has evaporated since.*

Never read your Glossary before, it's hilarious, and very clever. Of course you are a dance pro - that is obvious! Otherwise how would you know to describe jive flicks as "flicking gum off your shoe...." Would love a £ for everytime I've told a class of kids just that!

But you're wrong about one thing? Surely nothing can be older than Bruce's jokes?

Unappreciating Simon's hair. He looks like he has a giant cone at the top of his head !!! Awful haircut...

Unappreciating the face that Claudia is making in these promo pics ; she looks like she just swallowed something really sour
And who does her make up It's ALWAYS a bit of a hit and miss

I wonder who will be " doin' it for me nan " ( dead or otherwise ) this year ?

I also think we should take bets on how long will elapse before Alisonwhateverhernameis's laugh gets right on our tits. My guess is 1 minute and 14 seconds.

Seems lace is the theme for this year, and how to make a celebrity look like a bobble head.

Greg's photo is scary. His eyes follow you
Nice to see Ward Robe continuing their time honoured tradition is not knowing what the heck to put the older and larger ladies in.
Should have had good money on Caroline being in sparkly shorts.
Thom gets the Memorial Matt Dawson Hello Ducky net top.

Wasn't it the samba.... (although salsa/samba... not much to pick between them)... I seem to remember they were pretty much of a muchness but the judges were being OTT in Samba week.

I seem to remember leopard print featured in the costume....
This is a screengrab, all I can remember is that Smugsanna screeched "Keviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!" at the start, for all the world as if she were calling him in from the ginnel for his tea.

That long?

It's already annoyed me and I haven't even heard it yet.

Well done Aggs for finding that... how on earth did you??

Oh, that is hilarious. I didn't know that thread existed.
Neither did I. I remember the posts discussing it in the NAT but didn't realise it found its way to its own thread.

Well done Nancy. A pure work of art.... (that keeps giving) .....

I almost wish for the old times at the start of the NAT when a 2 hr period away meant about 10 pages of hilarity to catch up on.... Boy could we talk then....

I'm sure once the show starts properly, we'll be back to about 20 pages in ten minutes!

Although personally I'm finding it all a bit underwhelming at the moment, I am interested in who is partnered together though.

What are we predicting for the VTs this year -

Judy - someone will be playing tennis at the All England Club. Maybe someone will be playing tennis against Andy Murray. God, I hope it's Anton with his mahogany Just for Men dripping down his face. Or maybe TTF getting an 160mph serve straight in the goolies.

Steve - I so hope his partner has no animal phobias.

Simon - face it, someone's going to be shagged by Lee Ryan.

Tim - in a red or blue fleece being dragged round a wet antiques fair in Norwich, or maybe someone will get auctioned off at Sotheby's, or he will introduce someone to the delights of the commodes at Hampton Court Palace.

Mark - a scripted-reality fauxmance in comedy Essex accents.

Sunetra - anyone for a game of doctors?

Jake - buried alive.

Gregg - buttery biscuit base.

Jennifer - I kind of want to see someone like Pasha dressed up as a little old Irish mammy. Anton can't do it because he is the Prince Philip of Strictly.

Suddenly missing Artem a lot, I'd have paid good money to see that.

There was always something way funnier about dour, Battle-of-Stalingrad Artem being forced to do comedy than the likes of eager beaver TTF. I think it was the way he couldn't hide not giving a shit.
