Can I just point out that whichever of you nabs the back seat needs to be well equipped with cardies? We do have a keeper of the cardi for the Jaybus but I don't have the file to hand so can't confirm who at the moment

I have a plentiful supply of cardies to hand, including a lovely soft cashmere one that I shrank in the wash. It will be excellent for cushioning those springs ...

Another picture from today's interview. (In fact I couldn't recall which had been posted earlier.)

Congratulations danceagogo
Hope you get to have lots of lovely cuddles😍
I became a grandma for the second time a few weeks ago. Another beautiful grandaughter. Lovely 👶

Many many many breaks 😜

But that puts me in mind of a County Cricket Club for some reason.


Congrats Dfer. I can see lovely cuddles in your future😊

Upside down reading, I see that Fitz has a crib sheet in that second photo. "The Wanted. All time Low"

Just about to go and look for the interview.

Yes, and Signpost Magazine with maps and directions for Plymouth!

Well that worked well, didn't it?

Turning up in the wrong place indeed!

But couldn't they have chosen a better titled song?

Glad You Came---more upbeat title

Just in case anyone has yet to hear the interview.

Morning All,

Jay out in Plymouth with fellow cast members:

Congratulations to dfer and danceagogo on the new additions to your families. X

Kmelly has just retweeted this remix of 'Best you Had':

......and Aliona has also been out, to Aldo Zilli's. Giovanni tweeted this picture.

I wonder if they are discussing something dance-y? A new project, maybe?

Hope so! I don't think Aliona's ready to give up dance just yet.

Thanks for posting SR. I knew there was something else interesting to share!

Good morning all.
Rain here today and quite cold.
Congrats to the new babies and their family's .

Also regarding the results show, it just goes to show how contrived and managed the judges comments and marks are.
but J is quite right.Iit is a danceing completion and also a television show,which is as much about the judges as the dancers.what they say does create controversy ,and there are a lot of people watching believe what they say, because they are the experts.
And rightly so.
I hope those people also watch ITT and in particular, Chloe and Neil, in chroe corner, Chloe gave an excellent account ,of faults in technic ,including Ores sloppy feet which makes a mockery of the judges scores.
I hope they were watching.

Congratulations Danceagogo and Dfer on grandson and granddaughter. I am trying to catch up after travelling and family visits but still not there.

Quick pause in packing for posting (how alliterative)

Dfer - congrats to you too!

sammi42 is the keeper of the cardi

Do you think they're giving Anton more prominence in preparation for retirement/judging etc? I actually was pleasantly surprised by his dancing in the pro routine - Lesley must be feeding him whatever it is she takes!

Car boot beckons

I hope they don't pick Karen as a judge, I find her even more annoying than Len. I would like it to be someone not involved with the show at present ,just mo.

Could someone point me in the direction of the interview. I have got bogged down again! Thanks!

Hello Gill, the link is in post 12233 from TsuntsuBird on page 490. It starts at 2.09 into the show.

I think I also read that Gary Wilmot was interviewed earlier in the programme but haven't had time to look for that one yet.

If you haven't done so already, Gill, listen to Gary first because he talks much more about the show. Both interviews are lovely.

A poster on the Beeb blog has said that they're worried about Daisy doing the Charleston as she's so tall!

That's an incredibly commercial production, very slick and very marketable. I really like it even though I'm nowhere near the target market. I don't know where the producer stands on copyright grounds, and I love the original, but this version really has the balance right between Jay's sweet voice and the rapper's rasp.

Go for it, Jay!

Thanks for the links Ahouch and Strictly Red.
Congrats Dfer on the arrival of your grandchild. 🍾👏🍾

Korky/Hannah/ anyone else looking after Jay- surprised you let him out to the pub last night and did not keep him inside in the warm, resting his voice!

I wonder if and when Jay will get his hair cut for Big?

I expect Maureen's sharpening the shears as we speak! I just love that image of all the kids lined up to be sheared and then them tidying it up at school afterwards.

Maybe he's leaving it to the last minute so it's long enough to send to the wig charity.

Congratulations Dfer!
