Oh no ... no doubt a tremendous birthday fuss will be made

Urgh, that means her birthday is near mine. Proving astrology wrong though!

I hadn't thought of that.

Boo boo I am feeling all I'll with the sniffles and then you say THAT about,Anton and Joanne

( wanders off to bed too bury my head under a duvet )

(( with,a glass of whisky or 2 ).

Completely off-topic but may I just deeply unappreciate the trailer for a spider documentary they keep playing on BBC4? I'd rather watch Carol Vorderman do a menage a trois rumba with TTF and Blulu.

I'm convinced that at home in Grimsby, Joanne has a wardrobe full of Disney Princess outfits

I see in the Janette Strictly Peek thread, Joanne has listed some of her favourite films as Aladdin, Lion King and Beauty and Beast. Eeek.

Is it wrong to imagine the 'I'm Belle', 'no, I'm Belle' conversation as a bit like

My 11 year old daughter even commented on how childish FFG comes across when we were catching up on ITT last night.

I suppose Scott should be grateful that her favourite film isn't Bride of Chucky



Why did I expect that clip to be Kirk Douglas and loads of others shouting
"I'm Spartacus!"

Scott and Baby Joanne are doing their American Smooth to Total Eclipse of the Heart. This is going to be hilarious, either intentionally or unintentionally, but definitely hilarious. Plus I bet Brendan's having a Brenda moment - 'I've bagsied all the 80s power ballads! All of them!'

This gives me an excuse to repost this video....

I've just had a terrible thought! If Alison and Aljaz are dancing to Bootylicious are we going to get a set comprised of giant, wibbling jellies? I'm not averse to the idea of Aljaz being smeared in jelly but, for some reason, I find the idea of giant jellies quite disturbing.

Unappreciating that I haven't seen this before. It's epic!.

Someone (not me) found and posted it the last time Total Eclipe was used, and I thought it might have been missed by some

Wasn't it a Hobbit rhumba?

Quite right too.

I have to say I don't think I am ready for the sight of Allison realeasing her inner Beyonce in that music video is not one I am looking forward to.

And as for double bounce

Or perhaps just a dud party popper, as was * released* for TTG last night on ITT

really really cant believe she is 31 - feel as though I should be deducting 20 years or so from that figure

She'll manage that.
No problem.

I appreciate this. Lots .

Oh I am not fearful of her being able to do that, I have real fears that she may not be able to stop.😃

To be honest, I wouldn't want to see Beyonce dancing to Bootylicious in Strictly style

Brilliant!

Mentioned on another thread that I wish Alison and Aljaž were dancing to non-PC "Ain't Gonna Bump No More (With No Big Fat Woman)" by Joe Tex.

Hi, I'm new to this thread - keep up the good work

However I'm not appreciating that I can't work out who some of the abbreviations refer to, have worked out that anyone FG is "From Grimsby" but can't get "TTF". Could someone help me out?

Sorry to interrupt!

TTF refers to Kevin otherwise known as KFG , with his sister being either FFG or JFG

TTF is from a dance of his last year when he was supposed to look like Indiana Jones leaping across from pillar to pillar, he much more resembled a tiny tree frog leaping across lily pads in a pond. Esoteric I know but very apt at the time.

FFG female from Grimsby or JFG Joanne from Grimsby, as if being from Grimsby is a character trait as the BBC would have us believe.
