Oh, I'm nowhere close to outraged

I just wish things could be allowed to happen organically.
If Danny is the best, so be it.
If Ed is killing it in the public votes, so be it.
If Louise and/or Ore are doing neither, so be it.

I think people are just getting bored of being force fed storylines/comments/scores in the face of actuality.

Anybody able to tell me what Joanne was dressed as - i couldn't work it out with the pool table and her suit like dress thingy?

Evening all

I don't watch the show live, cannot listen to the judges they really are pathetic this year, overscoring, over acting, over compensating.....just overboard.

Strictly staff also appear to have put something in the audience's kit kats.

Just found it strange that Darcey, the floor spotting queen failed to mention that Louise didn't look up once, didn't even look at her partner....very disappointed and the 10's that are flying from the judges especially Craig is ridiculous

Best dance of the night for me was Claudia and Aj, the height difference really worked for them in this dance to produce brilliant lifts, loved it

I thought it was supposed to be some sort of boardroom power struggle over the air hockey table with added gusset flashing.

I mean we're at the fourteenth series of it, with a ratings increase for the second year in a row so it doesn't look like it...

Not sure how much of an AT it was (I'm sure sofakat will tell us all later!&#128513

but I think they really made the height difference (and Claudia's strength) work for them with the lifts

Evening everyone, just got home and changed into my jimjams before watching the show on catch up. What should I look out for? Any danger spots? It's pasta for tea so I'd like to know if I am at risk of dribbling it down myself. Pasta sauce is a swine to get out of winceyette

Absolutely agree.

To which I would add, if we could be rid of Twimsy, so be it...

TBH, I don't care who wins as long as they are minus a Clifton. (Unfair to Jo, as it is Tiny Tears who is the turn off in that partnership). Like Aggs, bored of the force fed narratives. Ed or RobDOT for the win...

Avoid the charigathon. It'll have you spluttering down your statically charged winceyette with rage...

I'll just give you one tip - open the wine now. You'll need it.

Nope, you're reading far too much into it. I didn't mean the judges, I didn't mean the voters, I was just comparing his staying to a common party experience. And I have no idea why you would think that, but never mind, eh.

I'm not sure if it isn't so much that X Factor has jumped so far past the shark that people can't be fecked with it rather than that Strictly is doing something oh so right.

I think Kevin aka TTF aka LGLC wants out of his dance partnership with Louise. Her smiling is boring him to the extent he will never find the frantic button again. Truly frightening. (From a Kevi fan)

Well, yes, true.
Crackers isn't it.
They really don't like viewers with memories do the?

Hi there TT

Yes I know and you are probably right, but still liked it more than the other performances and was Ore and Jo's paso (after the 20 sec faffing abah't) a good Paso? I didn't like it, but then as you know I am a little biased

They'd lost the puck and she had to go retrieve it?

Mmmmm, could just mean there is nothing on the other tv channels to give it competition.

Just watched a film, taped scd and watched the dancing only

Not a notion - perhaps she was hiding on Ore!

Well SK may say differently and I will respect ther opinion but I thought they just capitalised on her athleticism and abiltity to make shapes. I am always looking for a tango walk but in this case could have saved my energy. Her feet weren't even in contact with the floor for a third of the dance.

It might not be a common party experience for some of us

Is there a time limit on how long a lift should technically last? I kind of expected them to get pulled up for it
