This has to be my favourite tonight. Gio can throw me over his lap like that any time he wants *puts the wine down*
Brilliant posting Star brilliant dance. The ending, Georgia stops fighting And Giovanni so knows he is going to win. Long stare and smile from Giovanni when he helps her up. Tears later. Don't tell Delly 💃

Oh, he was playing with fire in that particular argument
Yes, Star. Absolutely!


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!
So emotive : Audience reaction to this dance the best of the series? Nines would have been fair Nina.

We have said on the thread that The Tour is so important for many reasons. Taking a look at the celebrities so far for this new season I am unsure that they have the profiles to fill arenas without a Jay. Perhaps someone like Brian McFadden may bring the ladies to the arenas? Or has he been too quiet of late? For the girls I am still hoping for a young celebrity or perhaps an Appleton sister? Have they done strictly before? So Next Week!!

Thank you again Star for the dances. Alicia 💃👠✌️🎈

Great afton thank you - why is Jo on Anton's back ?

They all look like they are having fun in these rehearsals - what sort of dance does ChrisLXD choreograph does anyone know ?

I am watching the Athletics from Rio - The last Olympics for Bolt !!!!

Another group shot of the pros, different angle

Brendan and Natalie missing, perhaps they all get some days off or not used for certain routines with the extra pros now.

Thank you Daisy - there are a lot of other dancers in that group - looks interesting !

Just a reminder the Strictly Prom disappears from BBC iPlayer at 9.30pm tomorrow - luckily most of the individual dances are on YouTube but the lovely Cole Porter medley at the end never made it !
I have really enjoyed watching the whole Prom - I hope they do it again next year.

Cant believe it is only a couple of weeks until Strictly starts again - it doesn't seem like eight months since the last series ended and we were all so cross GG didn't win !

Is that Joanne with her arms around Anton? Don't tell me she's fallen victim to the old foxes' charms! Georgia will be so jealous!!

I can't believe it's a month since I went to see the Strictly Prom! Fortunately I've got it recorded on my YouView box so I can watch it again. I was just sorry that they didn't include the lovely group hug they all had at the end when the prom was shown on telly. It would be lovely if the Strictly Prom became a regular thing - the audience absolutely loved it and it got lots of praise on Twitter and so on.

Brendan tweeted Thursday evening leaving rehearsal room being taken to Heathrow on a m/bike meeting Zoe and going to Dublin for the night, Came back yesterday morning and said he had day off.

Yes, they all get certain days off - not everyone is used in all the dances. They all sit out of one or more of the pro dances. I suspect that this year,, with the extra pros, Anton will be in hardly be in any of the group dances.

Thanks both, that makes sense. They are are a hard enough working bunch as it is, I read somewhere that they work most Sundays on pro numbers when the show is on, while the celebs get a rest. Let's hope Gio's day(s) off can work out with Georgia's schedule.

I just did the 'how well do you know the Strictly pros' quiz on the BBC website and got 19/20 (the one I got wrong was Ola's favourite dance). I think I need to get a life

He was indeed!

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.
Hi Rose we haven't heard from you in a while. Hope you're well!

So undermarked

The audience went wild - they knew !
Well exactly.
I agree with Nina that t should have had at least all 9s - a few 10s wouldn't have gone a miss as I didn't really notice anything wrong with her shoulders. It was an aggressive and tense dance, so I think raising your shoulders up was adding a bit more realism to the routine actually!

Thank you for that reminder Sandy - I shall watch some of them again today! They are all available on YouTube but I'm a bit of a fusspot when it comes to video quality so I'll make the most of it whilst I can still access it on the Iplayer on my TV!

I am very worried they will never see each other this Autumn

I just did that quiz - I got six wrong.
I even got which country Alijaz was from wrong !

I hope they can work something out Sandy. For example the week when BAT is in Brighton it would be tough for Georgia to commute, but Gio might be able to for some of the nights. Of course it all depends on where he has to go to train his celeb. I wonder if they are given any inkling beforehand and it is just confirmed on the launch night (the insider said things can change last minute). I've always doubted that they know anything because they always look so nervous! But then Kevin and Brendan did seem pretty sure that G&G would be paired!!

Thanks, not nearly as much fun as your GG quiz

Yes Sandy - it is a worry but like Daisy I hope it can be managed. Georgia has just instagramed one of her quotes that she likes. It implies that you shouldn't let perceived things get into your mind. Because then those things have power over you. She captions Don't Allow It. It's a good quote Georgia has posted. Alicia👍✊

I see your point but they've had a long time to plan and prep for this autumn and there are a few gaps in Georgia's schedule. A few of the locations have an easy trip back to London. Where there's a will...

I dont think that the pro's routinely rehearse on a Sunday. They seem to occasionally and definitely on a Monday morning. Remember that insider post stating that Brendan has been the instigator of a few changes this year to make the pro's lives easier? This may be one of the changes?

I too hope they can work something out. I thought Georgia might be able to commute from Brighton but the trouble is that although there are fast trains earlier in the day, after 11pm the trains stop everywhere and take forever to get to London. As you say Daisy, Gio may be able to go down for some of the days. I notice that Georgia is not doing a Monday show that week although she is doing an extra matinee to compensate. With the extra pros this year Gio should be able to wangle a few days off.

Commuting from Milton Keynes should be easier - a train to Euston and then a taxi maybe.
Also, after MK Georgia does a week in Bristol and will then have a whole week off.

Anyway, they both know how important these months are for them, especially for Georgia so she can launch her stage career. I think they will work it out somehow and I'm betting that they have booked themselves a lovely holiday somewhere warm after it is all over. I'm sure the idea will sustain Georgia on her lonely nights in a hotel and Gio as he struggles yet again to open a tin of tuna for his dinner!

Edit All this talk about BatT has prompted me to get a ticket for the Saturday matinee performance to see it in Brighton. Easy peasy for me to get there and back - and much better than trekking up to Milton Keynes!

Great afton thank you - why is Jo on Anton's back ?

Watching the Athletics from Rio - The last Olympics for Bolt !!!!
Your welcome. Just glad it worked.

Could it be Antons resemblance to a horse Sandy 😂😂🐴. Apologies to any Anton fans. Couldn't resist 😳

Love Bolt. An exciting athlete. Sad this is his last Olympics

What's going on with the men's relay. A GB athlete put a foot over the line into the next lane ..... ... Right, and which country benefits from GBs disqualification.....yes you guessed right ..... Brazil. Conspiracy ........hmmmm.......... You decide 😂

Christopher Scott is a choreographer who works mainly in stage and film and covers a wide range of stage style dancing (contemporary, hip hop etc) he works a lot on SYTYCD and on the Step UP films below is an example of his work - would imagine he will give a 'modern' slant on a ballroom dance as Anton is involved ??

GG will be fine it really a case of who Gio gets and if he will need to travel outside of London

But they are both really supportive of each others career. I am sure that they will have all of January off, before the Strictly Tour which I am sure that Gio will want to be a part of.

Oh bendy I love that - thank you !

So exciting - I used to see a lot of modern dance troupes at Sadlers Wells years ago and this is more like their work than ballroom in many ways isn't it ?
Looking at the rehearsal photo a lot of extra black dancers are obviously part of this dance so I wondered if it was hip hop or something like that !
What Anton is doing in that company I don't know
