Claudia seems to have become close friends with Chloe too so perhaps Claudia could dance with AJ at one of Chloe and AJ's events. Well you never know.


ETA better the dance event than AJ try a gymnastic event 😂😂

This is one of her beam routines...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LorNcQdfX18
People questioned whether she could of handled the pressure of the final, I showed them this...which helped Team GB win the bronze medal at the World Championships in 2015...

She will have The British Championships in March, she is the current British All Around Champion and The European Championships in April, where she has very good medal prospect, especially on floor... Those tumbles show that she seems very happy to be back into gymnastics. The biggest advantage she had in Strictly is her fitness and the fact that she knows how to stretch and warm up in ways the others can not. She has stamina too.

Good picks Hannah. I'd also add their AS to that list as well, with an Xmas theme rather than a Halloween one of course

Absolutely!! I loved how Pasha said that there was an amazing surprise at the end of the show when Zoe quizzed him about the group dance on ITT. See, even the pros are in awe of her!!

Wow imagine how good that would be! Her American smooth was amazing and I think if she'd done one a bit later on it would have got 10s!

Nice to see Claudia in the audience with the rest of the gang on the Christmas Special tonight.
Although I don't think they were all there were they?

PS I actually had Frankie and Gorka as my winners


Anyhoo have a Happy New Year everyone🍷🎉

Yes it was great to see her! I didn't see Ore or Rinder in the audience. I agree, I think Melvin's win is, shall I say, a tad fishy

Hi soap_lover. Someone asked the same question on the link you provided and it appears they are doing a couple of shows at the Waterfront Hall.

Thank you both I would love it if Claudia could be at one of these events with them in the future - it is a shame she can't do the tour, but obviously she needs to train for competitions next year

I hope everyone enjoyed Christmas.

Thanks again for these Stuart. I am continuing to watch them especially the charleston salsa QS AT.... and well all of them.
Still ponder on how good their showdance would have been.
But I am sure the judges would have chosen the samba as their finals dance just as they picked harder dances for two finalists last year.
