You are absolutely right about the photo... but it is obviously extremely difficult to find a torso picture of Gio - such a modest young man etc etc. Even if he has difficulties with buttons.
I am eternally grateful they did NOT find a Piers Morgan torso shot. ![]() The remarks underneath.. a bit one-sided I agree. It's always going to be a bit one-sided as Gio has kept silent. Which is the right way to go. It will be interesting to see how Gio handles things in future. If I were him I would be keeping my private life private in future. Maybe of course he is already doing that. |

Loved the programme tonight about Len Goodman. It was great to see old clips. I particularly enjoyed bits of Series 1. Added bonus there was the odd glimpse of Gio too.

To be fair Georgia has hardly run to the press either has she? Certainly not bad mouthed him in any way.
That Daily Express poll is a bit weird. For a start Gleb has barely been on British TV in 2016 and Piers Morgan ? Anyway, I love Gio on the show but I don't fancy him so he's not my heartthrob. He did make this years Strictly more interesting than it could have been and it's a shame he and Laura were struck with rather bad luck. I so hope he sticks with the show, has a great tour and has a great year next year as he's my favourite pro. Oh and look >>>>>> |

Not as far as I know. All that was publicly said was that they'd split and were moving on. Some people liked her far more than him, which is fair enough, and they're following her career and life closely on the Georgia thread. TBH I still don't quite understand the criticism he gets for the break up of the relationship with Georgia. I mean if he ended it then surely anyone who likes and admire Georgia would ultimately be happy that she's no longer with someone who doesn't feel as he should do about her and if she ended it then they'd respect her decision. But there you go..

We saw how good a dancer he is in the final. He and Katya were fantastic dancing the cha cha together. He is my favourite pro too. Do not understand why Piers is even included in the poll. Very strange. |

I have to be honest I do think he has an ego and that affected his dance partnership this year, although they did also have some bad luck this year. So if I am going to support him again he is going to need a very likeable partner. |

I loved the chemistry they had on the dance floor. I was really sad when they went out of the competition. |

Gio after two young partners I think is more likely to have a middle of the road contestant. And I tend to agree that sometimes Gio is very, very Italian and it doesn't always translate well in the UK - mostly it is charming but sometimes it can come across as a bit OTT. I remember thinking that Artem, who I really liked, could be a bit too 'Russian' at times. Quote:

Pretzel - I really hope he gets someone likeable next year too - I just enjoy watching the show more when the partherships look like they are enjoying themselves. I think that is why I unexpectedly loved Lesley and Anton, as well as Katya and Ed, so much this year. Quote:

Issfan - it was great - did you see 'the Russians' aka Pasha and Luba Mushtuk dancing the jive at Blackpool? With Gio watching wearing that 'favourite' grey cardigan. I thought actually it was a really nice end to the series, loved all the backstage bits and the sort of one-hour show they should do every year after the final. Len is wise to go at this point - on a high.

Happy Christmas everyone.
![]() Have a lovely Christmas Day with your families. Back to that important question 'Who was the hottest man on television in 2016?' http://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-...unks-2016-poll I am sure you will all be relieved to know Gio is currently on 33%. And in........drumroll........FIRST PLACE. ![]() Piers Morgan is on 10% ![]() (I have no idea when this poll ends.... but it is heading in the right direction)

Morning all
![]() Just caught up with the Christmas Special this morning...what a treat that was! I had expected to see Gio larking about in a Christmas jumper and instead we get tails and a gorgeous, elegant number with Karen. I thought they danced beautifully together. Another unexpected treat...a retweet! I don't tweet all that often. But my highlight of yesterday was watching my dog open her Christmas presents Hope everyone has a lovely Boxing Day ![]()

Just popped in to spread the Giovanni-in-tails love
Him standing there with the cheese tray did get me thinking "What do I have to do to get a Giovanni for Christmas?"

I have not always been Karen Clifton's biggest fan, but my goodness her ballroom has improved leaps and bounds - her arms were simply beautiful in that dance. Tremendous And as for Gio, in tails, holding a plate of cheese - well.... that is just far too many good things in combination (the cheese is the main attraction here, obviously )You had a retweet for Christmas! Congratulations. I hope your dog enjoyed her Christmas presents. Quote:

Hello GoinGaga - if you ever find the answer to that question ..... I hope you share it! The pro dancers look so great in tails... here is hoping for more routines just like that next year. Quote:

Yes... you might be right about her Instagram. It is Angela, her fiance and Gio in a couple of nice, smiley shots. Gio wearing his fave leather jacket and clearly has just had a Christmas haircut. Angela has captioned them 'I love you both' and 'my life'. It's been a while since Gio was back in Sicily - his sister was clearly very happy to see him again ![]() Quote:
Haha! Actually I hadn't seen the smiley santa one before. Some entertaining comments beneath
MissD - the comments were absolutely hilarious. Quite a few ladies would have appreciated Santa Gio appearing under their it seems. Can't think why - it's an absolute mystery to me. Mind you, he is wearing a very nice hat. That is probably the explanation. ![]() Happy Boxing Day everyone. |

I've always fancied learning Italian actually. I think it's a gorgeous language.
