Morning Vicsmum

As others have said this thread is bound to continue but if another is opened specifically for his new partner the more the merrier

However, I think the height difference between her and Gio will probably be too much though. I'm still hoping he'll get Anastacia.

Incidentally, I see the Jordans are now the face of Anne Summers according to an article in the DM today!! If anyone was worried about there being one or two negative comments under the DM article yesterday about Georgia, the one on the Jordans has attracted overwhelmingly negative comments. I won't give the link since I'm not sure whether anyone wants to see an article with a picture of James showing his sex face! ”

Hoping for Anastacia too, with Louise as second choice. If only it was up to us eh?

Oh dear re. the Jordans I'm guessing those pics are NSFW...?

Tristan was a right cheeky chappy, and very laid back! ”

afternoon ..... hot again

yes, he was about 50 ... and I see that dance has been mentioned in the "Forgotten Great Dances" thread .... the choreography was perfect for that music

I liked Tristan and wish he hadn't left ..... quite nice looking too !

does this mean you have a Geordie accent ? it's my third favourite accent

many thanks for typing that interview which must have taken you some time, also, the results for the latest quiz were very close weren't they, we obviously have some GG experts in here

It's Mark Ramprakash's birthday on the 5th and what a lovely day for a wedding anniversary... the first week in September will be a busy one for me, I know nine people who have birthdays in that week, it's the Strictly launch show, the auction of the decorated cows and, I believe, the start of Poldark !

I bet she is getting excited now, especially if she is meeting the cast of BAT this week
I wonder if she will meet Bob the cat!! He seems to be star of the show
He may also be in Georgia's shows as he seems to travel around.

that cat is gorgeous, I wonder which rescue centre he came from

Wonder what the Dutch guy who couldn't vote who started the thread is doing now & if he has kept up with GG's story? Would be lovely if some of the early members cold be enticed back for the occasion, Humpty is one who rings to mind & whatever happened to Everlong girl & Lily123 who were everywhere then nowhere on the thread.....
”

I knew that

the Dutch man started the thread because of Georgia I think as he quite liked her ! if he hadn't started the thread I wonder who else would have done it I always liked Humpty's posts, and we both had a mild crush on Giovanni

thank you for starting the "Forgotten great dances" thread, I've spent more time in there that I should have done and it's great to see some of the dances from years ago, have also listed a few of my own .... great dances but not forgotten, by me

I was so hoping for Himesh to take part, never mind, I like Tameka, she's quite a "comedy" character on EE, most of the time, but I think she'll be fairly anxious about doing Strictly and not so much of an extrovert so won't become annoying

last year there were only two contestants that I'd never heard of, namely Antony and Georgia, but this year there are seven never, mind, I shall enjoy getting to know them and am especially looking forward to seeing Will

btw NDD just because a lady is "rotund" doesn't mean she hasn't got natural rhythm

Ooh, NSFW - 'not safe for work', that's a new abbreviation for me! I think the Jordan's pictures generally fall into the category!

Afternoon!
It certainly was. Was Anya only in for that series?

Well my accent always seems to be mentioned whenever I leave the area! I suppose it's kind of inevitable when you've lived there your whole life!
And it's only your third favourite?!!!! Which two beat it?!

I wonder if some of the people who posted here during the last series might pop in again now the new series has started?

No, I know Lisa Riley proved that, but I don't know? I feel awful saying it but Tameka kind of looks top heavy to me, purely from a dancing aspect!! It's ok having rhythm for the latin dances but she also has to dance in hold to the ballroom ones and...and...... I'm going to shut up before I dig myself into a deeper hole!!

Hi Vic'sMum

On a personal level I will be unlikely to post on any other 'dedicated' thread for Gio & his new partner!!
GG are such an item now I would find it disloyal to her as this is the G & G thread, therefore it's for discusding what both are doing, Strictly included!!
Just my opinion!!

Mine too - whoever Gio's new celeb partner is will be neither here or there in the scheme of things as far as I am concerned !
I hope he wins the glitter ball trophy so he can take it home to Georgia, who should have won it last year, as I think GG were the most lovely couple ever to be on Strictly - and I have watched every episode of every season right from the vey start.

Whatever success GG get this Autumn in their different fields will be celebrated by both of them so I will go on posting in this thread.

I'm with you,I'm staying here,can we not discuss Gio and his new partner here or is that not appropriate.

Yes we could certainly discuss Gio and his new partner here - it's perfectly on topic. It's more than likely that someone will set up a new thread for him and his partner but it wouldn't stop us talking about it in here.

Afternoonio everyone

Just about to catch up on the thread but in the meantime I have just spotted a pic that Neil has posted. I am quite liking Neil for giving us info - he can stay!!
It features our Gio in the background dancing with Katya (I think) and looking rather handsome

I'm sure Katya will be flattered by that compliment Jen!

Certainly is! Olly Murs and someone else whose name escapes me at the moment will be singing at the launch... it ought to be spectacular, and I should imagine the judges will have their cameo roles as usual - I remember Bruno's being particularly ridiculous last year (quelle surprise!)

I see there's a picture of Claudia Fragapane standing alongside Ed Balls - safe to say there's a bit of a height difference!

Be careful NDD!!!
You are definitely showing signs of morphing into Collaw!!!
But there can only be one Collaw and his sometimes outrageous comments on here!!
I can't cope with two of you!!!!

Well of course I meant Katya is looking handsome!!
You don't for one minute think I meant Gio is handsome did you????!!!!!
Seriously I am sure he is getting even more lovely as time goes on if that's even possible.
It must be the love of a good woman!!!!

There's no doubt that Georgia's improved Gio's looks (and wardrobe!) - I mean when's the last time we saw him in that Puffa jacket?!!

Well I think we do need an explanation, Jen. Think of the whole 'Star for Strictly' campaign we had!

Saying that I think Mrs Glitterball deserves an explanation the most, as she's bet her house and pension pot on Star and Alfonso winning it!

I know I know What's happening Star? There could be a small black cat looking for a new home soon if I have to sell up. I will have to live in a ditch and eat blackberries and ask complete strangers for a go on their mobile so I can keep up with this thread. It would be no life for a lady of (ahem) more mature years. Have pity, Star and get that goat and your good self to rehearsals pronto.

Oh no Mrs Glitterball we can not have you living in a ditch for pity's sake

I love that even if you have to live in a ditch, you will still try to read this thread!!

By the way I don't automatically home in on Georgia's ring but my brain soon registers if I can't see it haha!! I always have to know it's still safely on her finger or if Giovanni has bought her another one and I need to call on our resident "not an engagement ring" expert hehe You know who you are!!

Just seen your post Star.
How very dare they say you are not famous enough for Strictly
You are a famous legend on here!!!

Star you are definitely famous enough. You are beyond famous enough. You are a legend.
I think it's because you are too famous (much loved Twitter chum of Georgia and all that) and too loved. The producers of Strictly are worried that it's going to be flippin' Jay all over again as millions of people vote for you each week.
What they haven't thought of though, is the risk of Alfonso throwing a goaty strop because he's not in it. It could be very very unpleasant and smelly.

Thank you Jen. It's very kind of you to be concerned. And thank you Brian for your original concern. I will ask NDD if I can have his hat rather than him eating it. It may help keep the rain off a bit
I would definitely make every effort to keep reading the thread!!! Life would just be so dull without you all. No fun at all!

Please see comments above re Star's starriness!

Another thing, when I first saw Claudia Fragapane's name I read it as "frangipane" and so whenever I see her mentioned, I always think of delicious frangipane tarts. I think this partly explains why I like her so much already.
