By some stroke of luck, I have managed to get tickets for Strictly for Saturday 24th September.

What ridiculous time would people advise me to queue up, please?

I'm so excited. I can't believe that I got tickets!

Does anyone know where the Maxwell Road entrance is? I kinda know Elstree because I did a placement at Elstree Studios, but I don't know where the Maxwell Road entrance is. Is it the other side of the studios? Is it pass the bus stop right outside the studios? I looked on a map but it still didn't make sense to me.

From what people have said in the past I think Tesco might be the landmark.

Lol, a bit.

Thanks! I can't believe that I got tickets. I was expecting to get loads of unsuccessful emails. I'm so looking forward to it.

Just so people know, if you are successful in getting tickets, they text you to let you know and that you should check your emails for the tickets.

That's a start because I know exactly where it is.

Don't think there is an elimination on Sept 24th / Week 1

I think the queue for entry last year was the housing estate on the other side to Tescos - so if you are at the island in front of Elstree looking straight at it - queue is somewhere on the left.

As regards queue time - unless you can get yourself in the first 20 then it's very random where you might get to sit.

I think to be in the first 20 ish - you will need to queue by 4 am .....!!!

Last time I went (1st year at Elstree) I got there at 8am and got 15/16 stickers. And when I previously went to TVC I got there just before 9 am and got 10.

I am really happy for you ............ NOT!!! Just kidding , have a lovely time. Please let us know the gossip we don't get to see.

This is the first time I have applied and I have ticked all the shows, will have to wait and see.

BIB - Will they let us know that we were not successful??. I am yet to receive any emails from them.

For the launch show the year people started queuing at around 3.15am.

I met a couple who had numbers 97 and 98 and they got there are 6.50am.

For the launch show there were only 475 guaranteed seats and when we went on site at 4.30pm people were still arriving with tickets and being given reserve seats in the 300s!
