Ciao GG land


Hope you are feeling a little better today Star and anyone else affected by Corrie.
I had to drink a hell of a lot of water to rehydrate myself after all of the blubbing yesterday night





Jammy Not so sunny here but we are supposed to get some sun tomorrow yippee!

I too agree Steven the model is not a patch on Gio although he does look good in a couple of his pics that I looked at ( purely for research purposes of course)
The burning question I have is why wasn't Gio used as the model???!!!
Somebody missed a trick there I think.

Same as me Jenster I was researching his pics for my fellow forum members to save you all the hassle 😉

I wonder if the reason they don't do more GG promo's is because they are with different agents sadly ☹️

Evening everyone 😀. Hope ye all had a great day😀

I forgot to say earlier in the Irish star yesterday it said Jamie redknapp didn't want Louise partnered with Aljiaz as he is afraid of the strictly curse, he hopes she's partnered with Anton. So 3 points I'm gonna make:

1- I don't believe everything I read in the papers so maybe it was never said.
2- It was said as a joke.
3- Their relationship mustn't me that strong if he's thinking that way🙀

If anyone is interested going to see Gio and Joanne 😀

Yes Jammy, the things we put ourselves through just for the sake of this thread eh?! It's tough but someone's got to do it I suppose........
BIB Yes that could be the reason or Gio was busy with other work.



Talking of which I have just found this new pic ?? of Gio which looks like he has been dancing for a private function. I don't remember this pic.
Has anyone here seen it before? Sorry if it's already been posted.

Who is that he is dancing with ?

Corina/ Katrina Travis? Sorry I just can't remember her name for some reason!

Have you seen this pic before? Sorry if it's already been posted!

It looks like Korina Travis again?

Never seen it - well spotted !

He was obviously busy while Georgia was in Bristol !

Yes it is Korina :

Here she is:

Haven't seen it before and I don't like it Look at the way she's smiling at him Get lost Korina find someone else to dance with

Poor Korina.
Anyone dancing with Gio who isn't Georgia just will not do I'm afraid
Maybe we could just photoshop Georgia's head onto the pics???
Just kidding

Sounds like a good idea to me !

Oh yes good idea now who's good at photoshopping Or maybe star can lend her Alfonso to dance with

Ah, good for him - glad he's getting lots of bookings

I don't know what the bloody hells the matter with me! It's a bleeding soap! She's a fictional character and we were told this was coming months ago fgs! But Dear God, was that awful. I feel emotionally drained today. Utterly heartbroken 💔

Good evening

James has never won but, as you said he should have won with Denise, have always liked James as a dancer and choreographer and would like to have danced with him



yes, very upsetting news from Nice and I believe the man had mental health problems ! I think we're lucky to have this thread in our lives as an escape from all the sadness, we can have a laugh and joke but talk about serious subjects too

in the past four days there's been two local accidents, a woman was killed by a train and a man drowned in the Thames, both young people, so we should make the most of each day


do you live in the Philippines ?


I got emotional when my son got married, can't believe it was nearly a year ago and it was one of the best days of my life


I think Colin Jackson was the best dancer never to have won Strictly, did you ever watch any of his and Erin's dances? he looked like a professional to me, let down by the Show dance

Fancy getting Claire, Loz, Jen, Delly & any others affected by last night & giving our Kyles a bit of a send off at Giovanni's??
I'm sure Ruby will allow it, after all even an Eastenders watcher must appreciate soap class when they see it (even if it's in shorter supply down there)

Maybe Lewiscan raise a glass too from up there in Scotland!!

Also our Georgia!! If you're reading, your former cast mates did us proud last night & we will all miss Kylie/Paula!!

Giovanni seems to have been busy since the end of Strictly and much in demand of course, I wonder if the other pro dancers have been so busy ?

Oh that show dance was so misjudged - it seemed like a good idea but it just rather ugly, perhaps if the actual dummies had been more attractive it wouldn't have been so bad.
Such a shame because Colin and Erin should have won !

Awh sending hugs Star xxx


I'm with you on this Ndd. To kylie🍻. And jack and Paula for amazing acting 👏. Slainte everyone ( that's good health in Irish)

Oh dear - would ice cream, chocolate or prosecco help ?
usually works for me !

Get your #chillifiesta tickets for Sun 7 Aug for dance moves with @joanneclifton & @pernicegiovann1. http://buff.ly/29S7nbo #strictly

Someone said they were going to this - I can't remember who now !
Was it you Ruby ?

Hope we get a full report

can't agree with that

of course, all welcome in Giovanni's Bar and, did you know, we have a cafe here too for those who don't drink, just a shame the Head Waiter is too busy to serve us

I used to watch Corrie then moved to East Enders about 20 years ago and there was a moving episode a few weeks ago at Peggy's funeral when her coffin was carried in a glass hearse pulled by four black, plumed, horses, round the Square and onto the church .... very dramatic, and, apparently, someone's will die on Monday but will it be Paul or Ben

btw, my dance teacher thinks that Matthew wouldn't be interested in taking over from Len as he's too busy with his dance school, which is a shame, as I'd love to see him back on Strictly
