It's a Claudia themed party in tribute to the superb looks of distain she's managed in the last few weeks

Gosh that's a point.

It was completely silent in here before Peter Andre arrived on Strictly. What are we going to do?

*checks previous 22 parts of NAT*

Oh...

Does that mean JoeVarney is going to be done up in full Beast get up? Imagine the sweat!

See - there you go, silver linings and all that

Don't worry. We'll find something.

Welcome to the thread, btw.

It's an unappreciation thread, I'm sure we'll find something. Sweet of you to worry about it though.

Yes, we all just sat here quietly and knitted

Is he going to borrow Jay's "werewolf" look?

Or get the Jay werewolf leftovers randomly splodged on so he looks like he has mange

Hahahaha amazing

so who is next on our 'hit list' [wraps pashmina dramatically round shoulders]

red wine anyone?

Err....what did we talk about? Men with their shirts off, Claudia's unique...ummm...style, the singers mangling the songs.

I still reserve the right to unappreciate any unexpected pop ups though 😜

HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!

"Don't you forget about me" Someone at the beeb is on a big wind-up about PA.

Like the guillotine innit? 😉

YESSSSSSS he's gone!!!!!

'Nuff said. *Goes back to drinking in celebration*

Joins the Conga line. He had til the final in his contract, but the beeb couldn't risk more allegations of rigging so he had to be flushed.... and probably wanted to go once he realised it wouldn't be a walkover and how unpopular he is....

Hopefully, next year they'll be a bit more selective about the reality "stars" they invite.

Wondering how CAN will spin this over the next few days..

Haha! I was trying to think what Beauty and The Beast song can be a foxtrot- but then I remembered that things like music being appropriate for a dance doesn't matter on Strictly!
I'm sure there is something though- drawing a blank on BaTB songs!

...joins the CONGA!!! (plus lots of dancing smilies which aren't on my pc)
And bringing in a crate of prosecco and some canapés!!

Big one is called Beauty and the Beast 😂😂😂

Sang by Angela Lansbury, the teapot, in the film

"Tale as old as time true as it can be..."

Sang by Celine Dion

Vomit central, so twee & saccharine

The one Angela Lansbury sang but thought that was a waltz?????

At the start of the dance in front of Adam Lambert, I thought TTF was putting Karen into the recovery position, and a loving tribute to First Aid was about to begin.

**** ****** ******** phone rang at the beginning and I had to take the call- now i player's broken and I can't actually see catfish pondlife get his marching orders until later.

The theme itself - the one that goes "Tale as old as time" etc.? Though that always felt more waltz-y to me...

Ah yes- should have remembered that one really- clue's in the title and all that

He danced badly on purpose because he missed his wife and kids so much he wanted to go home, and get back to his full time job selling frozen food. And he didn't want to deprive his friend Kellie of her rightful place in musical week. What with him being the nicest person in the universe and all.
*puts Aljaz down and joins conga*

I hope they don't dance to Be Our Guest... that is Pixie's song!!!
