Having a right GG fest on YT tonight All this new line up talk has got me all Strictlyfied again

I have a new favourite thing about the Jive. Georgia's gorgeous smile at 1.13 after she turns

I still absolutely adore the way Gio corrects her in the Samba and keeps a big grin on his face whenever he's looking at her afterwards so she knows its all ok and to just keep going <3

Dear Lord, that American Smooth - I absolutely adore it. There are just no words for how much I love it. I can quite honestly sit here and watch it a million times over without getting bored.

Same goes for the VW and the Foxtrot tbf

Paso is fantastic and still makes me angry they scored her so low

And what can you say that hasn't already been said about that Show dance <3 <3
You know what, I haven't watched GGs dances nearly enough recently!

And by the sounds of it you've watched literally all my favourites tonight!

I think even that Jive was undermarked, certainly by Craig - perhaps a 7 is reasonable but a 6 is too low! To come out on week 1 and perform with such confidence and energy whilst maintaining that level of technique is fantastic. Love the theming of the dance, the song, Gio's massive kicks and flicks and his series of spins - basically everything about it!

Aw the Samba moment is sweet. Not surprising that there was a bit of a mishap considering how fast they were moving but quite remarkable that Gio managed to correct is so quickly! You can read what she's thinking with her face, and the little swallow she does - but she remains totally composed and wham, straight into a series of spins. Aww, and the way she says sorry to him at the end of the dance!

American Smooth was just exquisite! Such progress from the week 2 Waltz to this!

Paso Doble was criminally undermarked and underappreciated, and we have professional agreement in Karen Hardy on that! Passionate, aggressive, sharp, that jump Gio does in the air - I love it!

Show dance - completely brilliant, so brave of Georgia to attempt the blindfolded section. Judges were being pathetically fussy - should hate been four 10s.

there's a character on EE who has a cat called Craig Revel Horwood and, talking of EE, there's usually someone from that soap on Strictly but no-one has been announced yet .... am still hoping for Himesh ..... very dramatic scenes tonight


and where was the thud warning for that ......... very nice, I do like a good bachacada
!
Ruby is Rita Simons not announced she's leaving EE so maybe she's the Eastender this year.

BIB. Is bachacada and new word for oogling Gios arse 😂😂

Just been catching up on the interesting debate on Gio's dance credentials elsewhere, each to their own but case closed as far as I'm concerned
yes, I think almost everyone would agree with you


Ruby. If we're Gios 'tanners' we could slip a couple of suppositories in Star and Alphonsos biggest rivals tea. 😂😂☕️
I don't think we'll have to resort to such desperate measures, afton, as Team SA won't have any rivals

If he gets Anastacia as a partner, he will constantly be doing that in the rehearsal room!
I wouldn't be surprised if Gio can really sing well, bet he'd be great to spend an evening with

some time ago you posted two clips of Patrick and Anya and James and Denise which I seem to have lost, could you possibly repost them please, if it's not too much trouble

I've not looked at the link but I can confirm that he def was playing the drums in the paso. Someone who attended that show mentioned it in the comments section on Monkseal's blog. They said that he was checking it was all set up properly for him during the VT and that he definitely played them but not the first few bars, in case he messed up the introduction (the band's drummer would have been playing anyway too), and if you rewatch it with that in mind you can see when he stops fake playing and starts properly playing
I've seen a clip of Gio playing the drums in a band and very good he was too, is there no end to this man's talents

pops in to say hi and to whisper the threads out there are driving me nuts!!
I know - there is a biblical expression which goes something like :

Never cast your pearls before swine !

Which sort of applies in this case

Oh I am going to miss this pair on strictly!! Must admit to not watching any of the old videos for a while I might have to give some a watch

The paso was undermarked, undermarked, undermarked (as Karen hardy said) and it still makes me mad how the showdance, foxtrot and final rumba didn't get a 10 at least!!
I hadn't either. That's why I decided too. Watched them all about 5 or 6 times each (AS at least 20 )

You know what, I haven't watched GGs dances nearly enough recently!

And by the sounds of it you've watched literally all my favourites tonight!
I watched them all Brian In order that they were danced, obviously, otherwise my OCD would have kicked off lol.

I think even that Jive was undermarked, certainly by Craig - perhaps a 7 is reasonable but a 6 is too low! To come out on week 1 and perform with such confidence and energy whilst maintaining that level of technique is fantastic. Love the theming of the dance, the song, Gio's massive kicks and flicks and his series of spins - basically everything about it!
It's just fabulous. I watch it over and over and then think I need to push it further up my favourites list but there's no room and I can't possibly put it above the AS, VW or Foxtrot!

Aw the Samba moment is sweet. Not surprising that there was a bit of a mishap considering how fast they were moving but quite remarkable that Gio managed to correct is so quickly! You can read what she's thinking with her face, and the little swallow she does - but she remains totally composed and wham, straight into a series of spins. Aww, and the way she says sorry to him at the end of the dance!
Aww you're making me well up

Funny isn't it? How Gio went into Strictly, probably, only caring about making a good impression and winning and I'd wager a good bet that, before even halfway through, all he cared about was her

Show dance - completely brilliant, so brave of Georgia to attempt the blindfolded section. Judges were being pathetically fussy - should hate been four 10s.
Agreed!!

Hehe, ah well I guess my statement still stands as all their dances are my favourites!

Yep, I know exactly what you mean! I couldn't put it above their Samba either, or their Rumba really so the Jive ends up being a kind of 'mid table' dance which it so wasn't! You know what it is, GG were just too good!

Funny isn't it? How Gio went into Strictly, probably, only caring about making a good impression and winning and I'd wager a good bet that, before even halfway through, all he cared about was her
Aww, I know! How his life has changed in the past year! And I'd join you with that bet!

yes, "Ronnie" and "Roxy" are both leaving and I wouldn't mind seeing either of them on Strictly

of course it is, it's not really a dance move

He certainly would be'

And I certainly can here you go:
Denise and James' Jive
Patrick and Anya's Charleston
oh thank you you may know that James was one of my favourites and I've watched Patrick and Anya's Charleston many times as I love the routine and the music

also, nina the Richard Rogers concert sounded great, I do like a musical

There doesn't seem to be Ruby - I seem to remember reading that he can speak several different languages too...

btw did you get my pm , I have a habit of accidentally sending them to myself!

I love both those dances!
I seem to remember Craig being particularly harsh in his marking of Patrick and Anya's Charleston (nothing new there I suppose )

I just adore that dance - thank you for posting. And now I'm on YouTube with all of GGs dances being 'recommended' to me this seems like the ideal opportunity to watch them all again ... and again ... and again ... and again...

Ah yes, the start Georgia's 'little sausage' move - Giovanni the master of amazing endings, so dramatic!

I also love the VT they did for that week
"I don't care" , "I do"

Before the video was even posted, Neil Jones tweeted that Gio is always listening to Anastacia 😂
I just followed her on Twitter and funnily enough she played some tour dates in Sicily a few weeks ago. The venues are listed in her banner photo.
funny enough it's all linked so that's why I have a good feeling giovanni will be a perfect partner for anastacia this year Teampernastacia to win this year.

Yes, it's a bit like an itch you can't scratch. Still, I get the feeling certain people will never change!

Oh I love that dance. Great drumming from Gio and then I love the way he stalks down the stage with that fierce expression on his face before he takes Georgia in his arms. Ooh, sends shivers down my spine! As Craig said they give a very dynamic performance and it's great the way the audience goes nuts at the end! It definitely deserved 9s all round! I've been watching some of the group dances as well and I notice that Gio sings along to some of them. In the musicals week group dance you can see him singing along in Aliona's ear as they dance together!

It's funny how I decide to watch one GG dance and end up watching at least 6!

I have been watching Sergio's Part One video this week, several times - I guess because with all the celeb announcements I liked to remember how it all went down last year !
It is nice to see GG the first day they met - absolutely destined to be together.
