Now I want seats on the balcony.
Problem is get in the 200's and you'll be right at the back of downstairs but go too late and you won't get in. V tricky!

Plus it will really depend on production guests as well.

Like I said I was number 50 and we were 7 rows back between the judges and the band. The other side (famous guests and F&Fs) also filled up from 7 rows back.

I'm sure it was because of Halloween though I can't believe they would normally have that many production guests on an ordinary week.

Thanks.

I'm planning on going early so that I definitely get in.

I've got tickets for Friday's show - went 2 years ago when my friend got tickets and we were 3 and 4 at 5am . Sounds like people are queuing much earlier now though! As someone said the 1st 20 odd people sit right opposite the band at the other end of the dance floor and the view is amazing!!!

What pact with the devil have you made then- or are you just covered head to toe in rabbits' feet and four-leafed clovers?

I'm planning to get there for 2am so hopefully I get good seats. It's only because its Strictly that am doing the this silliness for.

If you arrive at 2am then there'd be no doubt of you getting good seats. You'd more than likely be the first one there.

See you there . Nope,I live in north London so I've booked a cab.

Which Ibis have you booked? I did consider booking a hotel to make it easier. What time are you going to queue up?

I hope that you are right.
I'm sure you'll be fine. At least you'll be lucky enough to be inside, unlike most of us.😢

I'll be looking out for the one with a placard saying:

Denise and Kush 4eva 💕 😊

Take a fold-up chair. It's a very long day of standing about. You can leave the chair in the cloak-room.

That's true! My cab is coming at 2am.

Lol, yes! I want Denise and Kush to hurry up and start again. I suppose that she has to deal with her pregnancy first.

Isn't it ridiculous that people have to queue up very early in the morning to get seats.

It is. I wouldn't do this for any other show but Strictly. I think that they need to find a way to avoid people having to do this. Maybe introducing a small refundable fee for tickets to confirm that you will attend. I know that they need to make sure that the studio is filled.

That wouldn't make a difference - people would still queue early for the good seats!
