Did you mean that to be that way round?

Either way works for me and would be better than the average female celeb's attempt!

I did!

OMG.

What in hell's name does Gleb think he is doing?

None of that is AT. That is Gleb having a moment of demented, misconstrued, 'creative genius' (not) unleashed to the wrong tune.

He's making it all up. He's on one.

If that is the way he 'teaches' I feel extremely sorry for Anita. No wonder she's not sure what to do with her legs and feet. No wonder her facial expressions are pained.

There are about 148 and counting moves in tango and all anyone can talk about is ganchos. Some even talk about kicks & flicks (we do not use those descriptions in AT). Ian Waite needs to stop talking AT now. Clueless!

It's a mess. Gleb has lost the plot. Anita is bewildered, and the music is all wrong. It's a ballroom tango tune ffs!

It will be utterly dire but half the audience - who do not know what they do not know - will probably think, 'It's AMAYZING' because we'll probably have wind and water, and bits of flapping material and bared chest, mad eye makeup and a blow up visual of Gleb's new Calendar as a backdrop.

Gah!

Ii knew I would hear your cries from the other end of the forum. Painful wasn't it? I fully expect it to score 10s.

And that was worth every second I had to wait. 😘😘😘😂😂😂

I know it's frustrating for you as its a dance you love, but even I could see that was a huge pile of steaming 💩💩💩 but your epic posts do make me laugh. I can imagine you marching into the studio and dragging Gleb out by his ear 😂😂😂

Maybe it will improve with the AT expert input?

Awful! Ghastly! Ugly beyond words

And yeah the judges will get all silly and think it's genius because they know sod all.

I found this this earlier. At least I think it was this one I used as a sort of antidote.

Unfortunately Kimberley's tango face seemed to be her lips getting stung by a thousand wasps whilst simultaneously sooking a very very soor plum. 😗

Which spoiled the effect for me somewhat.

Much to my horror, when I eventually flicked on the TV (manic day) I saw Glebby and Anita on the One Show sofa. I never watch that pile of ........ but I did watch their segment.

And there was Anita, clinging to him like a limpet making moo mo eyes and, again, talking about how incredible their performances have been. Again?

And they showed his calendar and Whatsisface Farmer Boy actually flicked through it on camera, so we could all see Gleb with his shirt off - again and again and again. Oh barf!

Thankfully, Anita followed this with a segment on what she normally does and turned back into an intelligent, articulate and beautiful woman, presenting a great film she'd worked on.

I have no idea who the limpet on the sofa was

Ah yes, I saw that a few days ago. A friend shared it on Facebook and I really liked it. It gets better if you fast forward the class bit and go straight to their beautiful demo and the great voice over.

I do rather want to make everyone watch it so that the understand what we keep going on about!

Thought it was Katie powered by Anton did it first in their AT. 😜

Kellie just looked like Kevin the cleaner just spotted the boss so started pushing the broom a bit faster.

I managed to swerve that, I couldn't stomach the thought of that much earnestness with Matt and Anita at the same time, so I watched a really interesting documentary about the Coliseum in Rome.

Oh yes. But Pasha's was fine even imthough I am not a big fan of his.

Unappreciating the tastes of whoever awarded Vicky Gill a prize. See article.

I'm beginning to think I just unappreciate paso, or at least SCD paso. The expressions they seem to expect just make me laugh, the big drama numbers make me roll my eyes. I think there have been marginally more pasos than rumbas that I've really enjoyed over the years. Add in this music and theme? Urgh.

I am with you on this one!
It's funny because if its traditional production every single time I fall for it on first watch. but then I realise how fake and usually badly danced is and it irritates me beyond measure!
So far, I have liked about three or four in all the 6 seasons I have been watching. Many times it's the male pro that makes me shout: be a man!!!
Don't get me started on flamenco hands! They always comment how great they are when they are positively mediocre.

I think the Strictly judges et. al. are confusing Argentine Tango with this style

And I am not entirely jesting. It would expalin an awful lot of the rubbish we have seen and heard over the years.

I got it in part 22 just after the start of the season, it was one of the Nancy's , I think Nancy1975 or Fancy Nancy but the search and the multi quote function are not working tonight. ( and where oh where are the roll eyes).

Perhaps someone else can have better luck

I am going to make sure Sofs has a fabulous outfit and gets the best lawyer available, it will be ok justifiable homicide, and really when all is said and done , it's Gleb and a special. He has been very close before but to murder an AT. . It just had to be done.

So far murder inducing AT, OOM PAH PAH , ever more squeaky crescendo building paso , and sugar overload with Belle.

Do we have enough booze, are all the servants well rested and know their duties, have all the pashminas come back from the dry cleaners freshly fluffed for swishing, are the extensions erected, above all booze , and pasties? I fear it's going to be a night battening down the hatches and enduring the worst strictly can throw at us.

Someone has to be assigned to hold onto Sofs ankles until we can get her alibi established.

If Anita, Georgia ,Jay or Helen go out, I don't think this place will survive and it will be Pixigate all over again, OMG the horror, prays for a Katie or Kellie departure just for the sake of my sanity and I quite like both of those.

Sadly that's not just ATs it's also Pasos , Tangos and the occasional showdance,

The faces and everything about it would get 10s from every judge.

I love the stripy mans face in the first one, every male in all 4 dances should look like that, actually didn't Jason Donovan when we all had nightmares for months following his serial killer face.

Gee! I hope Gleb hasn't seen these, I can see a couple of "specials" there

Agree with Coppertop1 re: G+G, might be rather saccharine

Ah, yes. Apache dancing. There is a fantastic one in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Anyone seen it?

Is that the one to Caanan Days?

I think we're going to need more than one of Sofs Ankle Duty

With these Fanwarz it's like the good old days

Returns from DS storage basement brushing off cobwebs

I caught the search function at a strangely helpful moment. Mustn't be properly awake, yet!

Yes, I think it is. Every time I have seen the show, I wonder at the dancing!

I am going twice more next year. Joe McElderry is Joseph!

I'd not heard of Danse Apache before, but on watching those two examples I think you've hit the nail on the head, come out and do that for an AT and you'll score 40 no problem.

Anita and Gleb are going to score big on Saturday, I think that's a given, so do we start sofakat and your defence funds now?

BTW: Kellie's fairy light training skirt, she brought that from home didn't she
