Be careful what you wish for.......

It was so blatantly obvious how she was feeling that I was surprised they kept cutting to her.

As for Greg and Natalie (in particular) - for weeks, more signals than Network Rail.

Their partnership reminded me of Nat and Scott Maslen. They obviously got on really well in the training room and worked really hard to improve each week. Natalie strikes me as someone who appreciates determination and effort and I think Greg had both.

I think Natalie was a bit smitten with him but couldn't see it reciprocated from Greg.

Thought similar with Daisy and Aljaz to be honest

He did that too.

I thought the producers were hinting at that OP ,and taking the piss with the song they played for their Farewell Dance

Rachel Riley also said something similar at the beginning of her series though... Ben also said something similar...I could go on..NOT saying that anything will happen here and I really hope NOT but I am genuinely befuddled as to why some people keep bringing these examples; Haven't we learned anything from the story of this show ?

I don't think there is anything going on between them but that song could be the Strictly Curse Theme Song

She seemed infatuated with him, what didn't help was her saying that "nothing will happen because I'm so in love withe my boyfriend" and then splitting up later the same day Hopefully nothing went on there either.

At first I thought Natalie & Greg were a bit too close the way they talked about each other the way Greg got upset when Natalie was crying after their rumba but then in an interview on this morning Greg was asked about the strictly curse & he said him & Natalie are more like brother & sister. They obviously care about each other & wanted to do well in the show, I think if something more was going on they would have hid their affection but they know they have got nothing to hide so were just open about how much they cared about each other without wanting to rip each others clothes off.

In October 2015, Lowe announced her engagement to company director James Knibbs.

Lowe first met Knibbs when the pair sat across from each other on a train ride to London.”


So? I've definitely noticed something between them the last few weeks and Natalie was very emotional at Greg going, unusually so.

I get the impression that all of Aljaz's partners develop a crush on him.

To be fair I can't blame them for that!

I think that's true. It's funny that people mentioned Rachel and Pasha because they were the Joey principal in motion - their complete lack of chemistry on the dancefloor in retrospect seeming like an indicator of the chemistry off it.

Nor can I. I didn't get what the fuss was about the first series and I still don't think he's that handsome but with Alison Hammond and since then he just comes across the sweetest man in the world. Janette is very lucky.

Natalie gets very emotional and gushy with her partners, she was the same with Ainsley and if anyone has watched Greg jump, he's pretty emotional too. He was so upset because he only got a bronze in Rio and although Strictly is different, ofc, it is still a big emotional investment for the celebs but for athletes in particular.

It's an emotional experience...so tears when you go out is always going to happen. I never got anything beyond friendship with them and I'm surprised people did.

I couldn't agree more Vodka.

Please see Post 100 in this thread - as posted by me last Wednesday...

I think it's because it's her style to be quite gushy and cosy. No one thinks anything of it when she was paired with older married codgers but with a good looking bloke whom she's got eight years on it looks different to people. I think there were a few rumours about her and Ricky Whittle back in the day too probably for similar reasons so it's nothing new I suppose.

He didn't cry, but you can't have an emotional attachment with a sand pit.”

Greg is a professional sportsman and as far as I'm aware professional sportsman hate to lose whatever it is they are taking part in, do you watch this 'silly TV show' or are you just trolling?

I suspect there's a frisson between them, and they were the most likely to be hit by the dreaded Curse, but now he's out and they're not together all day every day I imagine it'll go no further.

I think that there's a lot going on backstage that we don't know about, and that the known relationships to have come from Strictly are far from being all that have occurred. It's just what happens when people are thrown to gether and have to create instant, intense relationships, especially when those people are not professional actors / dancers who do that as their job. I think it must be very difficult for the non-acting celebs, and it must be very easy to form an attachment that's slightly more intimate than it's supposed to be.

It looks like Natalie fancies Greg. She gushes and gushes over him, when he really isn't that good a dancer. I'm not sure that he fancies her though. Greg's wife always looked seriously annoyed when they cut to her. She may have said she's not bothered but her face said otherwise. I would feel very uncomfortable with another woman touching my partner in the intimate way they do in strictly. I don't know how they do it.

I agree.

I think Greg feels he has found a genuine FRIEND in Natalie - nothing more.

From Natalie's end, it is plainly obvious to me - as is the way Greg's wife feels about it. Neither woman seems to be adept at hiding their feelings in this case...

I thought it was more Nat than Greg, but after seeing there final dance together, he was holding on for a long long time.
