It is in my head - not sure about others.

Pixie and Jake were my faves last year, both got eliminated on a CCC in consecutive weeks so I'm a bit paranoid about it now, especially at this late stage.
BIB fingers crossed they smash it and can pick up the casual voter and the Helen faithful (well they will need to go somewhere)

He does seem to have picked up most of the Helen votes if this thread and the polls I've been looking at are anything to go by. He's massively increased his lead in most which would make me surmise that either his rumba was a hit, he's getting the Helen vote or both.

There's a poll on an article by BT tv for the winner and the article is all about how great Anita is and how untrained she is and how amazing she is and she's never been in the bottom 2 and can she beat Jay to the glitterball. She has 4%, he has 72% 😂

Ann Widdecombe is also GTT or the great titted trout.
Chris Hollins is the Hobbit.
Dani Harmer is Tracey Beaker.
Victoria Pendleton is Pendledrama.
Rachel Riley is Numbersbitch.
Alison Hammond is Funnity 2.

All of these are used intermittently - some more frequently than others.

Ann Widdecombe is that Widdecombe woman to me. I do not defile the initials BOD with her.

There was something about Harry being a geography teacher? Or was it just that he seemed to be rather geography-teacherish at heart?

What was Denise Van Outen? I remember DeKnees, but I'm sure there was more to it than that.

Oh well

I was split voting before but now I wont be so sorry Anita and Jay - not that either of them need my vote given their popularity on here and the assumption that it's Jay's to loose.

Didn't Harry have a penchant for cardis with leather elbows? I remember so little about that series apart from how tedious Jason was 😱😳

I think the grey one has acted like chloroform on us all. Not to mention we all OD'd on brain bleach and tranquillisers after the hair sniffing, Morris dancing, foot slapping NotAT.

I think I'm the only person in the world that thinks that the AT doesn't translate to Strictly, especially now that Flavia and Vincent are gone.

I don't find them to be showstoppers, I find they annoy the purists and I sit there wondering "was that it?" as the lighting and the camerawork miss all the intricate footwork. Anita's "AT" was the last straw, if even I can see that the pro has the hold all wrong, as Anton did in his too, without all the other errors, what's the point?
I agree - to me the AT will always be associated with Flavia and Vincent. I only ever found the one's they did as pro routines as captivating.

Most of the time I find an AT leaves me a little cold - I don't know if it's because most of the pro's don't dance them generally so they're not so competent at them themselves so they're not as technical or if it's because I prefer sweeping or lively dances. I have the same opinion on the rumba - just doesn't excite me.

Deeply deeply UNappreciating, close to suicidal, unappreciating the fact that the TTF is going to be allowed near the wonderful brilliant voice of Eva Cassidy

Sorry, but I have pulled her up on yt and listening to her atm ............. she brings tears to my eyes every time and I adore Songbird. I can listen to it on repeat.
I shall have a nervous breakdown if he so much as fukks with the arrangement.

If it makes you feel better, technically he'll be dancing to the voice of Emogirl82 on Saturday.

The image of Kevin doing the rumba makes me think of the least popular boy in the class, trying to be sexy! I don't think he can look sexy. But I suppose Karen thinks so!

Completely agree, don't think I'm going to find it very comfortable to watch

BTW, Sorry, big apologies, didn't think and I forgot some people will record, shouldn't have mentioned it away from the Throwdown thread

Did you see the pics of Kevin at Sadlers Wells for Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty? He and Karen were in matching 'sexy' leather 😬 . *shudders*

Isn't Songbird the music when Sarah takes Carl up to her room then chucks him out after they've undressed each other to visit her brother in the middle of the night?

Maybe that will be TTF and Kellie's 'story' this week?

Catching up with iPlayer/downloads ... unappreciating that the subtitles (which I need) on the Results Show nearly always turn up a bit too early so I have to switch them off rather than see who the saved couples are a couple of seconds before they're announced.

BUT hugely appreciating the subtitles on last night's ITT ... while discussing the 6 given to Anita & Gleb by Craig, instead they showed Ian Waite saying "... the sex was very harsh." (approx 19:11).

The question is,

Is this how Karen sees him in her head?

Or

Is this how Kevin sees him in his head and has managed to hypnotise Karen to see him like this?

Or

Is this the real Kevin and he hides behind SCD Kevin as he knows the real Kevin, one dressed like this would be laughed off SCD as an idiot?

Given what we have seen of his goth stage photos I am going towards option 3 and SCD is a carefully contrived persona to hide behind. But really YUK what the hell!

No wonder he doesn't dare bring this persona to work and has to be perennially twee as to do anything else would be too scary

More for the glossary -

Blankley - Christine Bleakley, whose face was even blanker than Jay's

Blankley II - Her off the One Show who is so blank I can't even remember her real name.
