I've seen the spoiler, I was worried about Laura and gio this week I must admit, but only as they have been bottom 2 already and I didn't know who else would be there!

I feel for them both I hope they get to do their jive, assuming she's better for next week of course! Fingers crossed for them!!

I think they should have to the jive next week anyway to be honest! We'll wait and see x

Can't see them doing the jive next week as that would give them another week to rehearse and that wouldn't be fair to the others.

Anne I think you're right. When Natalie and Artem missed a week due to illness they had to do a new dance. They finally did their jive on tour.

Tweet from Georgia, I wonder if she's on the way back to London?

so pleased for you both


I hope Star and Lozzer told Georgia the donuts were my idea, then I'd be nearly famous


I think we should now curtsy to them when we reply to their posts


I've always liked Kevin and wouldn't mind if he and Louise won as he's got so close with his previous partners, maybe it would have better for Gio if he's been partnered with Louise

was so disappointed not to see Giovanni dance yesterday, especially as the jive is his favourite and I'm sure Laura was upset because she couldn't dance, I have fingers and toes crossed that she's OK for next week

I now have a new game, it's called "Spot The Giovanni in the Clauditorium" and I did very well last night, he did look a bit lost though and if I'd been there I'd have given him a hug

as for the show, my favourite dance was Danny and Oti's rumba and I wouldn't mind if they won either ....

Anastasia did well with her new partner who looked very nice incidentally ... my favourites are still Laura (because of Gio), Danny, Louise, Daisy and Robert and I enjoyed all of their dances .... but I really missed Gio

Your new game made me laugh out loud! I do exactly the same. Ha ha ha. I do believe that he should have been paired with Louise rather than Kevin. I think he would have brought out the best in her like he did with Georgia. But what's done is done & he seems to be (apart from last night obviously) enjoying his time with Laura. Referring to her as a nice lady made me laugh like she's older than 31! If the statement last night is correct and Laura has torn ligaments, I doubt she'll be back next week. That can take weeks to recover from as my husband experienced. It took about a month and he didn't have dance rehearsals involved in his recovery. I will be devastated for Giovanni if that happens as he had such an amazing time last series and this series he just seems to be having a rough ride for various reasons!

I am glad there's someone else who has Louise as one of their favourites! I haven't watched last nights show yet but I was really gutted for gio and Laura! And I bet their absence was felt! I do believe the jive would have been a good dance for her!

I think Louise will be in the final - if the final is three people now !

A Danny, Ore and Louise final would be fantastic, the only person who could make it instead of her would be Claudia I suppose or at a long shot Daisy.

I like Louise every week but she is getting through some of the difficult dances early - I think the cha cha and the Rumba are just too difficult for nearly everyone and don't lend themselves to exciting choreography - except if you are GG

In case you hadn't seen this .... Gio's old coach Carolyn Smith in the 'new Len' frame for Strictly. There is a bit of discussion on the main forum.

She is very experienced and would be fab.

Some of Gio's earliest tweets when we started following him were to this lady.

Oh goodness you can just imagine the comments on the main forum if she gave Gio anything higher than an 8 !
The number of times people down there say that Kevin is favoured by Len are legion.

Georgia wasn't kidding when she said she had the family in last night - they must have packed the house out !

What a gorgeous looking group they are - great genes in that family.

Back to London I hope for two days off before the show moves to Brighton.
I do hope she has some fun times planned.
Did you see all the BAT posters of Georgia all over Brighton in pics on Twitter ?
Simply masses !

I live in Brighton Sandy, so can testify that we are indeed awash with pictures of Georgia....along the seafront, in several places in the city centre and along The Lanes, and you saw yourself what the train station is like. I also saw a few people stop to have a little look as they passed by the other day, so I'm expecting a lot of seats to be filled when I go

I love Brighton humpty great place to live

The BEST Sandy, I love it here.

Shes so good with them. I bet you Star and Loz got a similar hug too

I'm think Gio said in his interview in the clauditorium that they will be doing a new dance !

They'd have to do a new dance strictlyawesome - otherwise it means they'd be doing a dance with 2 weeks of training for it, competing against the others who've only had one week to learn the dance. They wouldn't allow that and I can see why.

Georgia's back home. Do we think London?

Helloio


I don't know Jammy but I would have thought Georgia would want to stay in London. She seems to love the London life and has friends there now and surely it is better to be there for work opportunities?

Well we have not heard from Star and Lozzer yet today.
I take it Star is still running around screaming with happiness!!
Georgia certainly made a lot of people very happy yesterday.


In other news, I have seen a tweet from Natalie Lowe saying that the pros and celebs are at elstree rehearsing for Halloween week today so we know where Gio is

I wonder if Laura has recovered enough to join in? I would have thought not if she was unable to dance yesterday but maybe she can be a spectator.
The reports of her not being able to stand up are clearly untrue as she was stood up in the interview with Gio yesterday where she told everyone that she was unable to dance, so I think there is a little exaggeration by the media as usual.

Afternoon everyone

I still can't believe yesterday happened, it's still a bit of a bit of a blur and i'm still buzzing about it to be honest.

Georgia really is even more lovely than you think she is - She's so easy to talk to and there was no reason to be as nervous as i felt. She spent a good few minutes chatting to us and is just generally bloody fabulous.

Plus she really is even MORE beautiful in 'real life'..😍😍

And yes we got a hug!! ☺️

I know we already knew it but she really, really does read the thread!!

I really enjoyed BAT and again Georgia was fabulous, you cannot take your eyes off her when she's on the stage, she makes you really care about Holly especially during the sad parts and there's quite a few comedy moments that she really shines in too. She has a brilliant singing voice and has so much dialogue during the show, she really does pull it off.

The costumes are stunning and the wig really does look good. Matt Barber was also fantastic and him and Georgia had great chemistry and made a great pairing with Holly and Fred.

I want to go and see it again.

Ah that's amazing!!!!! So pleased for you both & glad you enjoyed BAT. Still can't believe she reads the thread. Wonder if she thinks we are mental? Well some of us maybe!

Glad you enjoyed the show and what a bonus meeting Georgia.

Should we be embarrassed that she reads the thread 😂😳 *hey georgia*

Really pleased for you both though, and so pleased you loved BaT and that Georgia really shines in it I'm glad she has a great singing voice too- I really want to hear it!

Lozzer I'm so glad you and Star met Georgia! I know we keep saying it but she's so beautiful yet so down to earth as well! The doughnuts were a stroke of genius yay!

I might have to start re-tweeting ITT/Zoe/BBC Strictly to get Georgia on as I'm desperate to hear her sing!

I'm not embarrassed (furiously trying to convince myself) that she reads the thread. At least she knows our thought processes are coming out of love/concern/protectiveness for both her and Gio with none of the hate/vitriol/nastiness you can get on social media. We just want them to be happy 😊

Yes very true jammy! Hopefully we make her laugh as well as smile!

Reckon it's about time she posted on here 😂
