Strictly Tibb Dancing: Series 2- Winner announced

[Cherie]

screaming @ the ruthless judges this series :skull:

I have been very fair :fist:

[Strictly Jake]

I guess I can't mark until the morning?

Sorry I made a mistake with yours and Mitchell's it's been a bit confusing when I'm selecting which judges comment on which songs so I got a bit mixed up but it will be slicker next week I promise :hee:

[Niamh.]

It's been so long since I sent the first song choice, I can't even remember what I picked :skull:

[Strictly Jake]

Well I just need Barry to send his scores now i have sent him the proper song list. There is LT to score too but I don't think it's going to happen

[Lewismacfarlane]

Whens the show

[Strictly Jake]

Whens the show

I wanted it to be later. But have to wait for Barry(entirely my fault though) and LT (but I doubt I'll get scores off him)

While you wait...Score the x factor game Lewis

[Barry.]

Scored.

[Cherie]

Scored.

Barry scored :dance:

[Cherie]

Sia was one of my faves :clap2: oh and John Farnham, never heard that song before but I loved it and Iggy video was fun

[Liam-]

Sia was one of my faves :clap2: oh and John Farnham, never heard that song before but I loved it and Iggy video was fun

:love:

[Cherie]

Shakey is really building the tension eh

[Morgan.]

The GC stole the show though stop lying to yourselves

[Nicky91]

my choice for the Paso well i love the song and i love a good bit of pop/rock paso

[Nicky91]

don't leave me in tension Jakey, i wanna know my score :sad:

[GiRTh]

When do we get the scores?

[Beso]

Come on brucie...

[Nicky91]

parmnion your waltz song :lovedup:

Liam rumba to that john farnham song :clap2:


great song choices basically everyone

[Lewismacfarlane]

Come on I want to know how low my score is

[Nicky91]

lewis you had a decent (at least workable) song choice for the cha cha

maybe a bit basic but we're only at live show 1 honestly


who knows maybe your score isn't too bad, gotta hope for the best

[Beso]

Nicky for judge.

[Denver]

Cheap Thrills won

[RileyH]

Can I just say I was VERY generous with my scores so consider yourselves lucky

[Nicky91]

Nicky for judge.

:nono: i did that last series, now i'm a contestant and giving all i got


if judges appreciate my song choices i'm happy

if they don't i will respect their decisions too :hee:

[Beso]

I think your song would have the crowd on its feet nicky.

[Nicky91]

I think your song would have the crowd on its feet nicky.

also a fitting song, how i feel about my dance partner AJ :love:

so i had that cheesy bit of detail in mind of course

[Cherie]

the standard was high guys :clap2:

[Liam-]

Are our songs being judged on how much you like the song, or how well they fit the dance/theme?

[RileyH]

Are our songs being judged on how much you like the song, or how well they fit the dance/theme?

A mix!

[RileyH]

like sure parm's song fit the dance but it was 9 mins long and SO fookin boring so next!

[Cherie]

Are our songs being judged on how much you like the song, or how well they fit the dance/theme?

both, though fitting the theme for me is the main thing

I didnt think yours did but then I played a rumba on silent over it and it fitted it perfectly :flutter:

[Cherie]

like sure parm's song fit the dance but it was 9 mins long and SO fookin boring so next!

:omgno:

[Strictly Jake]

Had an absolutely disaster this time guys.

First I sent Barry and Mitchell the same set of songs twice instead of the other songs I should have sent so I sent the other songs to them but the original songs I sent to Barry he forgot to score and only scored the rest of the songs I sent to him which means like 6 people haven't received a score off Barry and now we know who had what dance....

So im not all that sure what to do now....

[Cherie]

fack, maybe not take Barrys scores into account

Sorry Barry :bawling:

[RileyH]

jake next time it'd be easier to just put the names of the judges you want to comment next to the song instead of sending them separately

[Strictly Jake]

Yeah sorry Barry I'll include your comments but I'll have to take away the scores just to make it fair

Yeah it will be a lot smoother next time I promise

[Cherie]

jake next time it'd be easier to just put the names of the judges you want to comment next to the song instead of sending them separately

thats a very good idea, who would have thought it :hehe:

[Cherie]

Maybe not have a vote off so its fair to everyone as well...I don't know what you think of that

[RileyH]

sweetie there are 18 fookin people we NEED an elimination!

[Cherie]

sweetie there are 18 fookin people we NEED an elimination!

I know I feel we need a cull as well :laugh: but one less wont matter and maybe do a double next week

[Liam-]

both, though fitting the theme for me is the main thing

I didnt think yours did but then I played a rumba on silent over it and it fitted it perfectly :flutter:

Queen!

It’s one of my favourite songs and always thought it would be a great rumba song :love:

[RileyH]

liam's song nearly put me to sleep

[Nicky91]

need an elimination, oh well as long as its not me cause i love eurovision and i love it if i make it there

[Nicky91]

sorry for being selfish :laugh:

[Liam-]

liam's song nearly put me to sleep

:oh:

I wish it had

[Nicky91]

now now maybe it just wasn't Riley's cup of tea :joker:

[Alf]

Are our songs being judged on how much you like the song, or how well they fit the dance/theme?I hope it's how well it fits the dance theme, because I really put effort in to mine. When I was given the quickstep, I read up on the history and origin of the dance, and I picked a modern song done in the style of music that quickstep was invented.

[Cherie]

need an elimination, oh well as long as its not me cause i love eurovision and i love it if i make it there

sorry for being selfish :laugh:

:joker:

[Cherie]

Are the judges qualified to judge this competition? :fist:

[brat.]

RileyH calling me basic fook off!

[brat.]

SCREAMING at Qua choosing sally walker :dazzler:

[Tony Montana]

Hmm 5th? Not bad.

[Alf]

Great, we have judges who don't understand the dances.

How was that too slow for a quickstep? It was quickstep music, just look how quick and brilliant the pianist is.

If I get through, I'll just be plain, boring and predictable from now on, I won't even choose songs to fit the style of dance.

It sounds like a perfect Charleston song to me

[Alf]

It sounds like a perfect Charleston song to meQuickstep came out of the Charleston, it's a cross between the Charleston and Foxtrot, I believe.

I actually breathed in before reading this.:shrug:

[Beso]

Sorry for the delay it was a bit messy especially while I was trying to work too haha!

Don't worry...it fitted my time perfectly. :dance:

[Beso]

Nicky.....pm me some tips.

[Tony Montana]

Sorry for the delay it was a bit messy especially while I was trying to work too haha!

No problem. Although don't stress yourself doing both at the same time.

Its a dance off between the bottom 2, chill your boots

The start was quite slow?? yes it speeded up but a quick step is quick from the off. If you go for boring I will score you a 2....

[Morgan.]

CRYING at a 10 :skull:

I'm the early frontrunner?

[Barry.]

No.

If you go for boring I will score you a 2....When you actually put hours of research in trying to get it right, to be told that it was off the mark, then my view is, there's no point putting effort in. I'll just pick the first song that comes into my mind, whether it fits the dance or not. I'm no longer gonna spend time looking for a song that fits the dance.

[Barry.]

My scores were 1 to 7 but I might just do it right next round.

hours? you might be taking this a tad too serious, you are half way of the table be glad :dance:

[Beso]

Security....have we chosen a security guard?

[Liam-]

I hope I get to do the Argentine Tango, I’ve got the perfect song for it :dazzler:

[Alf]

I think you got a 6 from me.The scores I'm not bothered about, it's the comments, trying to tell me that my song doesn't fit the dance, when I know it does, because I put the time and effort in to make sure it does.

[Alf]

hours? you might be taking this a tad too serious, you are half way of the table be glad :dance:Exactly, I was taking it seriously, but now I won't be.

My original aim was to do my best and win, that's my competive nature, but now I'll treat it as a mess around, where my aim won't be to win.

Yes, I put in hours of effort.

I loved your choice Alf. It's up to you if you take it seriously or not but I appreciate when people put in effort which everyone did this week(even Morgan, Gemma Collins?! :shrug:)

[RileyH]

RileyH calling me basic fook off!

Do better :idc:

Great, we have judges who don't understand the dances.

How was that too slow for a quickstep? It was quickstep music, just look how quick and brilliant the pianist is.

If I get through, I'll just be plain, boring and predictable from now on, I won't even choose songs to fit the style of dance.

I loved yours!

[Cherie]

Do better :idc:



I loved yours!

Suck up

[RileyH]

Suck up

If I get through, I'll just be plain, boring and predictable from now on, I won't even choose songs to fit the style of dance.Drag em Alf. They did the same with my brilliant song choice. :fist:

[GiRTh]

The scores I'm not bothered about, it's the comments, trying to tell me that my song doesn't fit the dance, when I know it does, because I put the time and effort in to make sure it does.I googled 'Contemporary Tango music' and it was the first that came up. :shrug: These judges dont know what they're on about.

[Cherie]

I googled 'Contemporary Tango music' and it was the first that came up. :shrug: These judges dont know what they're on about.

Thats also a reason to mark you down if you just pick a safe choice :hehe:

[GiRTh]

Thats also a reason to mark you down if you just pick a safe choice :hehe:It wasnt a safe choice, had you heard of that song before? A safe choice would have the been the type of music in the vid I posted of Vincent and Flavia. This proves my point TBH :shrug:

[Strictly Jake]

I googled 'Contemporary Tango music' and it was the first that came up. :shrug: These judges dont know what they're on about.

It may have fitted a tango but your dance was an argentine tango which is pretty different. I'll post an example just for anyone else getting mixed up...

Argentine Tango vCds5_QjRXM

Tango hs5NPVcbPZw

[GiRTh]

It may have fitted a tango but your dance was an argentine tango which is pretty different. I'll post an example just for anyone else getting mixed up...I disagree the accents are the same in both dances.

[GiRTh]

Go thru all the Argentine Tangos over the years. They are almost always classical Tango type music. I'll post a few if you like

[GiRTh]

u3kDOzqZPA8This is the type of music usually used in the Argentine. This music would have been 'a safe choice'.

Quickly losing faith in the judges.

[Strictly Jake]

I liked your song anyway I imagine maybe a slightly different arrangement would have worked but I still liked it

[Beso]

I got a one for the most beautiful waltz tibb has ever seen.

It is tough now a theme has been added, what with it being eurovision and all those people who may have gotten a south American type number.

[Morgan.]

Jake - are we allowed Songs from this years contest that hasn't happened yet?

[GiRTh]

I might do a Will Young if the standard of judging doesnt improve. :smug:

[Strictly Jake]

Make sure it's the extended remix.

[Liam-]

The song I’ve picked is a risk, I think it fits my dance, but a few might not like it

[Beso]

[Denver]

CRYING at a 10 :skull:

I'm the early frontrunner?

A convenience your best mate on her gave you top Mark's

[Tony Montana]

A convenience your best mate on her gave you top Mark's

So I take it Morgan's performance was the one you wished you could give 0?

[Barry.]

A convenience your best mate on her gave you top Mark's

We aren't told who sent what though.

[Denver]

So I take it Morgan's performance was the one you wished you could give 0?

Yes of course

[Denver]

We aren't told who sent what though.

Jake didnt tell them no

[Tony Montana]

Yes of course

I thought it was me for some reason :laugh:

[Alf]

So what do I have to do this time?

As I understand it, I have to pick a song that has been in Eurovision and fits the style of dance you sent me yesterday, do I have that right?

[Liam-]

Exactly

[Denver]

I expect songs to be unique not the most obvious, there has been 1000s of songs so dont pick the likes of Loreen, ABBA, Bucks Fizz and so on because you are to lazy to search

[Alf]

I expect songs to be unique not the most obvious, there has been 1000s of songs so dont pick the likes of Loreen, ABBA, Bucks Fizz and so on because you are to lazy to searchI don't think that you, as a judge, should be telling us what we can choose, and suggesting to us that you're gonna score us poorly for picking a certain artist.

You do understand how that is wrong and influencing the contest, right?

[Nicky91]

thank you for the decent scores for me in week 1 :hee: also nice i was in middle of leaderboard there, so i don't have much pressure on my shoulders now unlike last series when i started off as top of leaderboard and went downhill from there

[Niamh.]

:skull:

Aye, no wonder there's no pressure on your shoulders, you are getting tossed about by a fit young bloke...have you seen the size of katyas thighs fgs...

[Niamh.]

Tbf I did just Google jive songs :hehe:

[Morgan.]

A convenience your best mate on her gave you top Mark's

'Best mate' lmao as if

[Denver]

I don't think that you, as a judge, should be telling us what we can choose, and suggesting to us that you're gonna score us poorly for picking a certain artist.

You do understand how that is wrong and influencing the contest, right?

Im telling you that people who pick the obvious boring songs will be deducted points for lack of creativity :hee:

[GiRTh]

You do understand how that is wrong and influencing the contest, right?Drag him Alf. Still not happy with the standard of judging. If they are bringing their personal tastes into it without acknowledging how the song fits with the music then we've got no chance.

[GiRTh]

Im telling you that people who pick the obvious boring songs will be deducted points for lack of creativity :hee:Too much power. :bored:

[Beso]

Adam is a fantastic judge..

[GiRTh]

Tbf I did just Google jive songs :hehe:Why not? These judges need to understand their role in the competition and stay in their lane.

So that means you got the jive this week :joker:

[Denver]

Adam is a fantastic judge..

Parmy knows where his bread is buttered :clap1:

[Denver]

Why not? These judges need to understand their role in the competition and stay in their lane.

So that means you got the jive this week :joker:

Its more then just finding a song that fits the theme, you gotta take risks and not copy a performance that has already been done

[Denver]

Taking advice will make you better so i dont get why y'all are fighting against advice

[GiRTh]

Its more then just finding a song that fits the theme, you gotta take risks and not copy a performance that has already been doneYet you gave me a two for my song when it was one of the riskiest of all last week. :conf:

[Denver]

Yet you gave me a two for my song when it was one of the riskiest of all last week. :conf:

Because i didnt feel the song at all, its not really something you should take to heart but use it to spur you on

[Denver]

Like last season all the finalists were almost eliminated at one point

[GiRTh]

Because i didnt feel the song at all, its not really something you should take to heart but use it to spur you onFeel the song? :conf:

Too much power

Anyway, thanks for the words of encouragement :thumbs:

[Morgan.]

Im telling you that people who pick the obvious boring songs will be deducted points for lack of creativity :hee:

And I picked the best and most creative song and you still gave me a 1 :oh:

[Denver]

And I picked the best and most creative song and you still gave me a 1 :oh:

It was out of tune

[Denver]

Feel the song? :conf:

Too much power

Anyway, thanks for the words of encouragement :thumbs:

It was more suited to a Tango not an Argentinian Tango

[Morgan.]

It was out of tune

It's about the dancing not the singing?

[Denver]

It's about the dancing not the singing?

You cant dance to a song that is a mess dear

[GiRTh]

It was more suited to a Tango not an Argentinian TangoI disagree and frankly you are proving my point for me.:shrug:

[Morgan.]

You cant dance to a song that is a mess dear

The strictly band butcher everything and people still get 40's :shrug:

[Denver]

I disagree and frankly you are proving my point for me.:shrug:

why are you so upset

[LukeB]

I didn't know this was a singing competition.

[Morgan.]

I didn't know this was a singing competition.

Neither did I :laugh: Looks like I'm heading into vocal training for next week

[GiRTh]

why are you so upsetUpset? Not at all. I just want a certain standard of judging. You've got us confused. Thats all.

[Morgan.]

anyway Gemma Collins deserved a Grammy for that performance so dont know what the confusion is all about

[GiRTh]

anyway Gemma Collins deserved a Grammy for that performance so dont know what the confusion is all about:thumbs:

[Liam-]

What did you think of my song Adam?

[Denver]

there are a couple of songs/dances id like to see this week and i hope at least one is chosen

[Denver]

What did you think of my song Adam?

It was a great original choice that fitted really well you took a massive risk with it in week 1 but you pulled it off.

Until i was sent the song i had never heard of it before but felt it suited very well

[RileyH]

you took a massive risk with it

Girth triggered? :hehe:

[Liam-]

Bitterness is a horrible trait

[RileyH]

[GiRTh]

Bitterness is a horrible traitBitter? I got thru quite easily in the end. Just pointing out that the judges short comings. :thumbs:

[GiRTh]

[Nicky91]

LOL :joker: :joker:

i would never say nasty things about our judges

[Alf]

Its more then just finding a song that fits the theme, you gotta take risks and not copy a performance that has already been doneI did that in the first round, you gave me a 3

[Cherie]

LOL :joker: :joker:

[Alf]

LOL :joker: :joker:

[Denver]

I did that in the first round, you gave me a 3

And you should be grateful you scored so high

That's because kissing butt is the only chance you have of winning.

[Nicky91]

:oh: i'm not doin that


i just appreciate the scores i got in week 1, 5's 6's is good for early weeks

i was nervously thinking i would've gotten lesser scores

[GiRTh]

That was me last time out

bad week, the judges know nothing about music :oh:

good week, what an array of talented judges we have right here...:douf:I've got a hard dance for a Eurovision song. Fingers crossed for this week.:fc:

[GiRTh]

That's because kissing butt is the only chance you have of winning.:thumbs:

[Alf]

You can count the number of Eurovision songs I know on one hand, and Adam has told me that some of them aren't welcome.

I did want to pick a song that I know that Adam didn't mention, but it doesn't fit the style of dance.

Everything about this round is against me. It'll be a miracle if I get through.

So many themes with a greater range of songs to choose from, and we end up having to do the joke music of Eurovision.

[Liam-]

Eurovision has produced some absolute bangers tyvm Alf!

Adam is just one judge, pick the song you want

its a hard theme to fit to some dances for sure

[Liam-]

And don’t listen to Adam, he’s only one judge, there are 4(?) others

[Cherie]

Can I also say the week Adam give you a 9 or 10 you will be walking on cloud 9 as he is so harsh :laugh:

[Alf]

Can I also say the week Adam give you a 9 or 10 you will be walking on cloud 9 as he is so harsh :laugh:It'll be easy to get a 10 from him, It's just a case of finding a Tulisa song to fit a dance.

[Morgan.]

I hope not every week is themed, sometimes it's nice just have a bit of creative freedom every now and then just to keep it interesting

[GiRTh]

It'll be easy to get a 10 from him, It's just a case of finding a Tulisa song to fit a dance.I was gonna post something similar. :thumbs::laugh:

[Denver]

It'll be easy to get a 10 from him, It's just a case of finding a Tulisa song to fit a dance.

I would love to give you 10 for performing to Sweet Like Chocolate in Eurovision week but because it isnt a Eurovision song I can only score you a 9

[Liam-]

As someone that didn’t keep up with the version, how do I know if something had been used before?

[Alf]

I'm thinking, if I choose a Dutch song, the Judges might think it's Nicky and score it high. On the other hand, they might think it's Nicky and score it low.

[Denver]

As someone that didn’t keep up with the version, how do I know if something had been used before?

The only Eurovision song I believe that was used last year was If Love Was A Crime

[Liam-]

I’ve already sent my Eurovision song, I meant in general :laugh:

[Denver]

Oh I guess just search the previous thread

[GiRTh]

I'm thinking, if I choose a Dutch song, the Judges might think it's Nicky and score it high. On the other hand, they might think it's Nicky and score it low.:laugh::laugh::laugh:

[Strictly Jake]

Nicky your Eurovision knowledge astounds me. Remember everyone to send in your songs if you haven't already.

[Alf]

My first choice had already been taken. This is really testing my Eurovision knowledge.

Was that you GiRTh nicking my song?

[Strictly Jake]

Brat make sure your not late

[Barry.]

I don't mind the song being non English too. This will be a tough round.

[GiRTh]

My first choice had already been taken. This is really testing my Eurovision knowledge.

Was that you GiRTh nicking my song?Not me. I havent decided yet. I've got a really hard dance to find a Eurovision song for. :fist:

[Alf]

Not me. I havent decided yet. I've got a really hard dance to find a Eurovision song for. :fist:Me too

I've found a couple of songs that might suit my dance, but they're rubbish songs, and I'm not happy with any of them.

The one I chose first was perfect for me, but some thieving sod has nicked it.

I'm struggling with this.

[Alf]

I think Eurovision was a terrible mistake as a theme. There's no good songs to choose from. Especially when you have to choose one for a style of dance.

I don't know what to do.

[Denver]

I think Eurovision was a terrible mistake as a theme. There's no good songs to choose from. Especially when you have to choose one for a style of dance.

I don't know what to do.

There are over a thousand songs to choice from, I'm sure you can find at least 10 per dance

[Strictly Jake]

I don't know what to do.

Well Eurovision isn't really my sort of thing either but a couple of people wanted it so I accommodated

[GiRTh]

I dont think there has ever been Eurovision week on Strictly in over a decade. Strange theme IMO.:idc:

[sleleen]

dwts ireland had a eurovision week a few months ago but the songs were the generic ones that everyone knows and it was awful

[GiRTh]

dwts ireland had a eurovision week a few months ago but the songs were the generic ones that everyone knows and it was awful
I bet it was.

[Strictly Jake]

To give me songs

Alf
Tony
Brat
SherzyK
Hijaxers

Anyone who hasn't given me a song by the end of tomorrow night will be disqualified or maybe just have points deducted we shall see...but Hijaxers is certain to be a goner which is a shame

[Denver]

dwts ireland had a eurovision week a few months ago but the songs were the generic ones that everyone knows and it was awful

Legit all the songs bar one were popular winning songs which I hate when they do that

[brat.]

Slay send me a good song option I don't watch eurovision

[Alf]

Well I expect to be in the bottom 2 with my song, so I'm relying on my huge fan base to keep me in.


I don't want to go yet, I've got so much more to give.

[Strictly Jake]

Here are the results

But to kick things off here are our professionals dancers with a sensational routine

zHAYWMbvFvc

QZ5GzGYgWJw

[Nicky91]

Bad luck Lewis :sad:

[Niamh.]

Aw sorry Lewis [emoji53] thanks for the votes

[Tony Montana]

Congrats Niamh :clap1:

Commiserations Lewis

[Niamh.]

Why not? These judges need to understand their role in the competition and stay in their lane.

So that means you got the jive this week :joker:I got the Jive for the 1st round, one of the judges comments was that it seemed like I just googled Jive songs when picking mine, I was just saying, yeah that's what I did [emoji847]

[Strictly Jake]

SherzyK you need to submit your song

[Strictly Jake]

Doesn't look like Hijaxers is coming back but I have a replacement...

SlayBB is joining the cast and will dance with Gleb taking over from Jax

SherzyK you need your song!

[Cherie]

Doesn't look like Hijaxers is coming back but I have a replacement...

SlayBB is joining the cast and will dance with Gleb taking over from Jax

SherzyK you need your song!

welcome Slay, I hope you are less troublesome than Alf and Girth :oh:

[Nicky91]

top of leaderboard for eurovision week confirmed then Slay :idc:

[Strictly Jake]

Well SherzyK hasn't given me a song so I'll choose it for him like I did for Jax last week. If I don't get a song off him next week then like Jax he will be out. But whatever points he gets I will be deducting 2 points for not delivering on time. Hopefully this will motivate you all to get songs in on time. As the weeks go on the points deducted for missing the deadline will increase. So week 3 you will have 3 points deducted week 4 you will have 4 points deducted and so on
.. I will give you all enough notice to be able to get your songs in on time so there shouldn't be complaints about this

[Nicky91]

they need to be online, how difficult can that be :rant:

[Kazanne]

they need to be online, how difficult can that be :rant:

Well if you have a family crisis , or your router /laptop/phone is broken it can be very difficult.

[Nicky91]

Well if you have a family crisis , or your router /laptop/phone is broken it can be very difficult.

well you get kicked out of the game for inactivity its that simple :D

[Strictly Jake]

Well if you have a family crisis , or your router /laptop/phone is broken it can be very difficult.

Yeah I'm reasonable I'll give people one chance. If they miss the deadline I'll choose the song and they will miss out on some points but will still be part of the show. But it happens 2 weeks in a row then I'm left with no choice but to disqualify them. Otherwise this can take a long time waiting for people to give in songs

[Kazanne]

I understand that Jake:wavey:

I'm sure most people would understand.

[Nicky91]

why take part in a game when you're unable to play :laugh2:
