I think Daisy could be a good fun contestant- if only to see her have a major fringe-off against Claudia!

Loving her low husky voice too.

Pun not intended...

They look beautiful together. They will look stunning on the dancefloor. Fingers crossed she can learn to dance well. She looked pretty stiff in the group dance, but I don't think we should judge too much yet based on that. She's lucky she has Alijaz, he is one of the best pros. I think this year's competition could be tight with a lot of good celebs so it may come down to who has the most experienced and talented pro.

It's looking ok, I think!

Yes i agree - they look ok! I think she has potential in ballroom in particular to be really graceful. Can't wait to see what they come up with! Alijaz is without question who you'd want in your corner as a beginner ballroom dancer!! I am developing a soft spot for daisy, think she'll be a lot of fun, and i think she may have a bit of a wild side which will be good for latin perhaps! Could be an Abbey in waiting.... (eek too early to tell!)

Oooh First Steps VT, thanks for the link.

Having watched it I'm even more excited for their first dance. I like Aljaz's approach, beginning with the basics. Very early days but Daisy is showing plenty of grace and poise. I was hoping they'd start with ballroom, fingers crossed for a beautiful Waltz!

I love the way at the end Aljaz goes for a high five and Daisy dives in for a hug instead, if Aljaz was teaching me to dance I just wouldn't let go

Daisy is looking OK for early days isn't she, but Aljaz has such a warm, kind manner that it must be a real pleasure to be taught by him.

I like Aljaz and I hope they do well. I am really surprised that a few people in the MF are predicting Daisy to exit in the first few weeks. I think Daisy will be the dark horse this year and will surprise a few people.

I had to come and support your thread, Ochre.

Morning Ladies Love that photo of Daisy and Aliasz Ochre, two beautiful people! I agree Sarah, I think Daisy will shine. She is worried about her clumsiness but it didn't do Kimberley Walsh any harm!

What a beautiful photo! I stopped by to post it myself as it came up on my Twitter, but I was beaten to it.

Hello Ochre and others. Just popped in to say that I like the pairing of Aljaz with Daisy and she'll get to have her laugh as she said she would like of her Strictly partner. Let's hope that Aljaz can help translate Daisy's clumsiness into fluidity.

I think Daisy will be this year's Anita, she seems game for anything.

Ditto. I doubt Daisy will be a Helen but I'm hopeful that she and Aljaz will make a nice couple. Aljaz has grown on me as a pro very much in the past two years so I hope it goes well for him too.

I shall lurk and post now and then.

I hope you'll leave some Anna Wintour critiques on Daisy's outfits, probably don't want to know what you thought of the red fishnet but I liked it

I know I can be harsh but I'm never nuclear winter ... well only to one of my colleagues! I thought the red colour was gorgeous and gorgeous on her. Nice shape to the dress as well. Curvy and feminine. But I disliked the top with the brace effect and free floating boobs. It was nice to see Ward Robe trying for different outfits though and not just sequin, dangly affairs as per last year where every female celeb (except Carol) was dressed in one. Daisy is gorgeous looking but there's something about her that is ungainly and this might be the clumsiness she's referred to herself. So hoping Aljaz can translate this as I think she will have a nice personality on the floor.

Long answer but happy to oblige as quasi Vogue editor

Hope you and your family are well Ochre with no more upheavals in 2016.

I've missed your fashion critiques!

BIB I noticed they added a panel to the front of the bodice for the actual launch show. Completely agree about the shape of the dress, it really flattered Daisy's amazing figure and the colour was gorgeous on her. Looking forward to seeing her dress for the first live show.

Obviously very early days in their First Steps VT but I liked Aljaz's approach, beginning with the very basics of dance movement, how to walk and spin. She may call herself clumsy but I can see Daisy has grace and poise and in Aljaz has a teacher who will focus on technique so I hope she'll make lots of progress over the weeks.

We're all well thank you Maggie, Hope you are too

Really nice to hear. As I said I will definitely stop by if nothing more than to say hello. But it will be fun discussing dresses and the progress of this couple.

Great, I can't wait for new dances to discuss, dresses too

Just love Aljaz's ballroom choreo, sure he'll come up with something special for Daisy.

As for progress, as long as it's not another quarter final exit to follow Pixie and Helen I'll cope
