![]() [b]Laura was dropping a hint in this Insta pic earlier ![]() That's what you call hiding a clue in plain sight! ![]() Reminds me of the time Jay posted a pic of himself standing next to the Zoltar machine, a month or two before he was announced as appearing in Big the Musical!..... |

I can't believe this but I am going to miss tomorrow night's show Mr Black and I are going to a gig .... something we do about every seven years or so. I booked the tickets so only have myself to blame I won't be able to watch until Saturday afternoon but, on the plus side, I will have about three hours of Strictly on Saturday ![]() Absolutely LOVE the music choice for Laura and Giovanni

http://www.independent.ie/entertainm...-35069712.html Oh excellent, that looks good. Love this bit at the end of the article: "The best part is that all the contestants share a WhatsApp group so we can confide and compare aches and pains and worries. The camaraderie is so important and I feel so lucky to be sharing this experience with such lovely folk," Laura said. |

Thanks for the links. Your first live Strictly show, on this forum. I am surprised you had stayed away this long. I might not be on this forum tonight, so I will toast now "May this be first of many more ..... Cheers"

Thanks for that little glimpse of Cha Cha. ![]() Not enough footage to tell how it will turn out, but as I said before Laura's movements look very easy and relaxed. She is quite tall in those heels, probably the same height or maybe a tad taller than Giovanni. However, good pros will know exactly how to deal with that and they should look great together on the dancefloor, as they seem to be developing a lovely fun partnership. Not long to go now until we find out! |

Must be so nerve wracking going first but maybe good to get it over and done with

Laura gave a fabulous performance! Really enjoyed them. She has lots of potential, beautiful arms. No she didn't quite have the leg technique but on that point Cha Cha's a good dance to get out of the way in Week One.
Laura and Giovanni make a stunning couple on the dancefloor. And a sev-ern from Len 25, good start

Thought she showed great promise! Bored of the main discussion thread already - expecting Italia Conti standard from a presenter. I think she'll keep improving!

Very good first effort from Laura. Hopefully she will go far.
![]() Not sure what Giovanni had in his hair, though.

Loved it! Had more proper cha cha than judge Rinder Imho! She did look nervous and it showed a bit but for first on in the first week it's understandable

Just catching up, thought she was really dazzly and promising and, if she felt nerves, she hid them beautifully.
God I've missed Giovanni. I've missed this show! I liked the golden laurels in Gio's hair for Venus and for Laura. It's almost like wardrobe thought about it |
