BBC planning to air Stritcly with couples in isolation and no audience

[Denver]

According to the Sun the BBC are drawing up plans that will see Celebs and their Pro partners put into isolation together and the audience banned if Social distaning is still required by then

[LukeB]

the jugdes and the hosts to self isolate with them?

[Morgan.]

No one will sign up :skull:

[Kate!]

No one will sign up :skull:

This exactly. Nobody will do it. God forbid we are still in quarantine then anyway. Argh!

[Nicky91]

same as lets dance Germany, good of the BBC to take onboard that idea


judges, backstage crew also are isolated from outside world yes


so no contacts with family, friends (only via skype once if ur longer than 3 weeks in competition for example)

or during the liveshow Vicky Swarovski there at lets dance Germany shows live feed from family on skype, to say few words after a performance :)

instead of audience, the couples sit on benches to kinda lighten up the room a bit, and each couple clapping for each other which is also kinda cute

and rest of seats filled with pictures of fans (who can send in pictures of themselves) and Lucky ones each week win tickets for live tour that is how it also goes down at german version currently

[Nicky91]

most focus goes to the actual dancing anyway


can strictly pls ditch bruno, and try to get Jorge Gonzalez too besides Motsi, he's iconic, hilarious, he's genuinely fun, anything what bruno isn't :flutter:



there are/had married celebs in lets dance Germany (oldest of bunch 62 Ulrike in a very happy marriage, also mom of 2 children) so i can see celebrities still signing up

i mean more important audience are the tv viewers anyway, dancing in front of millions of people (and all those people can use a distraction, bit of fun too this year)

Nicky it’s Strictly Come Dancing not a bloody prison

Nicky it’s Strictly Come Dancing not a bloody prison

it is also not a prison :umm2:

if there are problems in the family, you are allowed a bye (and if worse problems sickness due to other illnesses in the family) you are allowed to quit after that one bye

everything still is fun, but under circumstances you need few alternatives in the show

and i also hope craig, Shirley, motsi, bruno do a intro theme tune dance too, for people at home to dance to, and also to share on social media (which is what in germany's lets dance also happens at start of each show)

Who wouldn’t want to be in isolation with Gorka? :drool:

Yes but you don’t catch coronavirus through Skype do you

[Nicky91]

Yes but you don’t catch coronavirus through Skype do you

don't see the point for moaning honestly :idc:

yes i also like it more with audiences, but under circumstances this is a great plan b option anyway


i'm still as hooked as last 3 years with lets dance Germany now, maybe now even more with circus bombshell Lili Paul Roncalli (the girl in my current avi picture) :lovedup:

[Denver]

You’re still not explaining why the contestants aren’t allowed any contact with their families until week 3 when they get just one skype call

[Nicky91]

You’re still not explaining why the contestants aren’t allowed any contact with their families until week 3 when they get just one skype call

because first weeks you aren't away for so long from your families, friends that's why


first weeks also were with family, friends only in audience tbh (oof i forgot to mention that important bit, mess)

[Denver]

we luv a youthful line up :clap1: :clap1: :clap1:

Nobody wants a random youtuber with a 100k views, an extra in a childs show and Karen who was given a spot because she threatened to call the police over social distancing

[Livia]

I'd be happy to isolate myself with Aljaz for a few weeks, test his stamina...

[Saph]

messy.. just postpone it

[Cal.]

[Denver]

Na it's got to be Gorka

[Jigs]

Mess

[Denver]

And pretty much the full Male cast actually

Not you having a thing for Anton

[Glenn.]

Is this necessary though? Like can’t they just cancel the series or delay it :skull:
