Thank you for the invite on the M and F thread Cat!

Hmmmm mulled wine yum.

Am very much looking forward to the Christmas special...all lovely dancers (probably looking forward to Jill and Alesha the most )

Thank you for the invite Cat...................brought Twigglets............Me and BOB love twigglets.............have a happy and peaceful Christmas everyone...........can't wait for the Xmas special

Thanks for the invite Cat.

This mulled wine is just lovely ...and is that mince pies I see

Merry Christmas everybody

Looking forward to the Xmas special, some good celebs there, and its hard to predict a winner.

No change there (unless your name is Tom)

Hi everyone. It's good to see you all.

Yes it is hard to predict a winner for this years Christmas Show. It should be between Jill and Alesha but I guess it all depends who gets the most mates into the studio audience.

I think Kelly and Brian could be good too as his choreography has been fab this series and a great jive would be popular with the audience.

It is a shame Austin and Erin won't be there though.

Back from real-life xmas drinks and nibbles!

<smooch> Buddy - you know I don't need mistletoe as an excuse!

Cheers for the list ladies - it's odd that there's only one male celebrity!

Actually, I've been thinking and I believe Kelly will win. Just a hunch.

I'm glad they've waited for this series to be over before recording the special - the current celebs always look a bit pre-occupied with the main competition and put in forgettable xmas performances.

Just popped in from Bar Cutler to say YUM! mince pies and alcohol! AND twiglets - my life is now complete

I have bought copious amounts of choccies with me, so dig in everyone, and CHEERS!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE!

Yes Kelly & Brian could a very good pairing. Her jive with Brendan was pretty good.

Austin would have added some extra Christmas spice.

I want rachel or alesha to win but good luck to them all.
Kelly has a great shot it too especially with a jive.

Thanks for the invite on the GMR thread. I love mulled wine and Christmas nibbles.

I won't be able to see the Christmas special until Boxing Day and I really don't mind who wins.

It's nice to be able to post on a thread that is happy

Happy Christmas to everyone

It would be fitting for Rachel to win to make up for her loss this weekend - fingers crossed - again!

yep thats why i want her to win. She deserves it more then Lisa.

What a nice crowd in here!

I've got cheddars, a box of Terry's Chocolate Orange sweeties and a bottle of Winter Pimms if anybody would like some?

I honestly don't mind who wins the Christmas special as long as I think everyone is treated the same - bloomin' hard for me to judge though when they are all dancing a different dance!

I'm hoping to be WOWed by every dance so the WOW factor will be my measure of a good dance - the symptoms are goosebumps and teary eyes that require a tissue during the dance!

Hello Thanks for the GMR invite Cat -*blows kisses to everyone*
Help yourselves to some marshmallows - nicely pink and fluffy!
Really looking forward to a chilled out Christmas Special!

I agree Buddy. Wow factor should be a deciding factor for a good Christmas dance.

Well I'm off to bed. I have an early start tomorrow for an 8am meeting.

Hope to see you all later for some more chatter.

Humph

Feeling ignored.

Night Cat - don't work too hard!

They're not Terry's, they're mine!

With the calibre of dancers participating, I think we can expect a very high standard Buddy I don't mind who wins either, really!

But.....if Rachel won, it would be amazing, a dream come true

Sweet dreams Cat x


Come here sexpot! I've kept a seat warm for you

We always said we were going to have a post-Strictly xmas party - well, here we are!

morning everyone!

*stumbles in from Bra Cutler, carrying vats of coccietails for the party*

Thank you for the invite to pop into the party Cat! and it was lovely of you to come into the Bra to wish us all a Happy Christmas!

wishing you very much the same back!

I don't "know" many of you - but I have "met" lovely Allison and Buddy! and have exchanged posts with the ever fabulous Sid on one occasion, I think!

*leaves his gift of sugar-exfoliating lip balm under the Cutlermas Tree for him to come and get when needed*

I got a bit excited with your first post Cat - you were talking about cheesy comments.......I thought it was going to be cheesy straws and got a bit excited because I'm greedy and love party food LOL!

What a lovely idea!

same invitation extends to all of you in our lovely Bra!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS all!

LOL! I love cheesy straws too.

Good morning good morning..feeling refreshed after a lay in,I love time off and the kids actually letting me!Can we have a costume party?

Afternoon

I've brought Brandy Crackers and Baileys for everyone!

How is it that I've only just found this thread?! What a fab-u-lous idea cat!

I can't wait for the Christmas special, will be a brilliant pick-me-up after the final, Jill was my fave until Alesha came along and now I'm a big fan of Lisa too so can't wait to see tham all dancing in the same show!

I don't mind who wins I'm just looking forward to watching lots of superb dances, they are all great dancers so roll on Thursday

Is it being recorded today?
