Hi Musicangel - i was sure Brendan was going to get Laura - height wise etc (still think they did a last minute switch with Giovanni) but Anastasia didn't look too bad in the group dance. I hope they click and have a great run this year!

After a long absence I am back to show support for Brendan and Anastasia. As old timers on here know I have loved Brendan on SCD since series 1 and Anastasia is a great partner. I hope they do well

Gosh i hope not! Brendan has changed a lot since his younger days on Strictly! He was on our national tv station here in Ireland last weekend. He said that Jo Wood was his favourite partner and that they were still firm friends. Plus he really enjoyed Sophie and he mentioned lots of others. He said it was also well documented that himself and Lulu didn't get on and that she didn't want to be partnered with him. He has mellowed hugely as he has gotten older and is very family orientated.

I don't understand.
Giovanni recently split from last year's partner, Georgia & there is a definite opinion that they have purposely put him with Laura, a friend of Georgia's purely to make tabloid headlines, given that all other celebs were partnered by height & Anastacia & Giovanni had built a good rapport with each other when the celebs were first announced!!

Felt sorry for both Laura and Giovanni as neither looked comfortable with the situation!!

Georgia has since tweeted messages of support to them so hopefully the tabloid crap will be a storm in a teacup & they can get on with being a good partnership purely for their dancing!!

Anastacia is amazing! I just like her. All my instincts are on her side, Tough cookie with a lot of heart. I hope she stays in a long time because her performance was compelling. Shame about the errors of course but she was thrillingly committed.

Sadly this injury will hamper what she can & dare do for the rest of Strictly, it's not something you mess around with!!
Such a shame as the poor lady has been through enough without being unable to give her best on her Strictly journey!!
One thing is certain though she will give everything she can give!!
Love & luck for the rest of her time on the show!!

Just read the daily mail article posted on the main forum. I had no idea the reconstructive surgery would be so radical. But it makes sense of what she said about why she wanted to do the show. It's an absolutely terrible situation for Anastacia and Brendan. No idea how well she can train and perform now but I wish them well.

So sorry a happy experience has come to this

Cant believe they are embroiled in controversy already and we are only a week in! I think her injury could really limit her time on Strictly, it sounds horrendous! Also with the 'no dance off' this weekend people might take a turn against her - that blasted James Jordan is on a mission to get the public to turn against her, all under the guise of fairness!

Some people really need to pace themselves with their outrage- the 2nd worst dancer of the competition, with the fewest public votes, got sent home over a couple who danced better twice. I'm finding it impossible to be bothered.

If in some bizarre scenario the producers had made Anastacia dance, she'd either have been better and thus saved, or she'd have collapsed and Melvin would have felt sh** winning in those circumstances.

And full marks to Anastacia for having a can-do attitude towards taking part- doctors always err on the side of caution: even when everyone knows that they're being over-cautious. No wonder Anastacia probably thought it was a case of the boy who cried wolf once too often and decided to take a risk. Most risks pay off- she was just unlucky that hers didn't.

Melvin was doomed the minute he got given Moving on Up as a tango song! he has been consistently bad for 2 weeks now and tbh I wasnt at all surprised to see him in the dance off

with hindsight - yes, Anastasia shouldnt have danced on saturday night BUT hindsight is a wonderful thing - as we all know

Anastasia is a strong, feisty woman who knows her own body and thought she would be ok - sadly something went wrong and she injured herself, not on purpose, it was an accident - people on the MF would do well to remember that - it was an accident and accidents happen

I cannot believe some of the vile comments down there! and absolutely - full marks and respect to Anastasia
