Wasn't sure where to post this, but it's an interesting article about Russian dancers on Strictly.

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

Is that the plot of a film or something you've decided to share with us from your life

Unappreciating that that's a Daily Mail link and one of the very few principles I do stick to is never to click on them...I (sort of ) want to see Leather Kevin.

How about option 4...that's Karen's natural style and she's dragging Kevin along into it, like an older sugar daddy hooked up with a bright young thing squeezing himself into too-tight jeans to please her?

Thanks for that - I'd read the shorter version in RT but there was some interesting extra stuff, like Kristina's view that modern Russian dancers aren't as driven because their lives are easier generally.

Also, Gleb started as a model. That explains a lot...

Trust me you don't, you really, really don't. Just imagine your local accountant who's decided to dress up as a camp, bad boy for the night, in leather, in black and you'll be most of the way there.

Not exactly the clothes I thought one would wear to Sadlers Wells .......... or am I just being an old fart?

Karen looks lovely actually.

Kevin, not so much...

Do you think they are trying to be the new Posh and Becks?

I have always said Kevin's geek persona is for the show...look back at vids of him before SCD his hair was longer and his clothes much more grungy.

Karen looks great, but I don't get the matchy, matchy thing. Or Kevin.

Poor Kevin, he still somehow comes across as quite gauche to me.

Does that mean the same as looking a prat, Mona?

I remember kids at school about ten years ago going through a similar phase as it was the latest 'thing'. It's probably still a hangover from that.

And yet it still didn't work, he just looked like someone trying to adopt that persona to look more interesting, someone playing dress up.

After seeing Kevin on SCD, I kinda assumed that his emo phase had been something to try and differentiate him from the other dancers on BTF. His SCD persona seems to sit on him more naturally.

This definition fits how I think of the adjective gauche.

It's like Adrian Mole trying to be cool for Pandora.

You just know he'd rather be wearing his reindeer jumper with the Pom-Pom red nose.

Shimmy Jimmy Jordan - James Jordan
Chelseepet - was not the first pet but she was the one thought of with the most affection until Jaypet

I'm sure I've forgotten a lot of them.

Eta: I forgot TTF and his wife the goat wrangler

Kevin is tiny tree frog after the dance where he was Indiana Jones and looked like a frog jumping from lily to lily and Karen dances like she's wrangling goats with her legs”

Alex Jones

We also had:

Afghan - Camilla Dallerup - so called for the breed of dog being willowy, tall and long blonde hair.

Wiggy - Darren Bennett - his hair looked suspiciously syrup-like.

Ourleona - Aliona. I think Brucie mispronounced her name.

Ricky Nipple - Ricky Whittle

Alibot- Ali Bastian.

Bobby -Robin Windsor.

No you are not in the wrong thread. You can like whoever you want. I totally admire Kellie's work ethic. Combining job, family, and SCD must be so tiring. She is what we call a trooper.

So do I! But then I am fond of Grimsby. I can appreciate others unappreciating them though I voted for them last week, extra votes cos all my votes go to Katie but once/if she goes this week my votes will move to K&K. I know they won't win but I prefer them to Jay, Georgia and Anita. I like all of them above Anita.

Nope, not the wrong thread, exactly the right thread, hold your views with pride, just don't tell someone else they're wrong for feeling differently. I still like Chris and Ola, which disagrees with a lot on here, and I'm still standing (Fews bruises and scars and they all gang up and point and laugh at me sometimes, but still here )

She's growing on me slightly. The VW last week was the first dance of hers I've truly liked. I still don't rate Kev though.

Each to their own

I don't dislike them. Kellie is a pure, old fashioned trouper.
Do the job, don't complain and that work ethic is impressive.

I'm staring to find Kev hilarious
Three years, possibly 3 finals and he is starting to get the slightly crazy, twitchy look of someone who's thrown everything in the ring and still knows he's going to finish equal second/third. He's basically running on show fumes at the minute.
