Agreed.

[Benjamin]

This round is so hard :joker:

[Benjamin]

You may have to wait until I’m back Sunday for my song btw if I can’t find tonight.

[Strictly Jake]

So just to be clear you can find something that traditionally would go with the dance music wise if you wish, or try and be creative and go for like music most people know, popular music or classic hits. Someone mentioned I said about using covers off YouTube but you don't have to do that you can use the songs as they are straight up. Just be creative as you feel. If it works it works..there may be some covers someone has done on YouTube to make it work for your dance more, but you do not have to use covers. Use whatever you fancy and think works

[AnnieK]

Not a fan of this round....:sad:

[Vanessa]

Not a fan of this round....:sad:

It does sound very hard.

Feel free to play the videos alongside each other to see how much they match. Turn the audio off on the examples video and just watch them while listening to the contestants chosen song

I can say that for sure was my favourite week of strictly tibb dancing ever. Absolutely everyone smashed it this week! The rankings are going to be interesting. Remember if you haven't used a killer vote yet you will have to do it this week, those of you who have already used one or two can decide to use one or save them for the next couple of shows

[Strictly Jake]

Joining us in the results show will be Mr Worldwide himself, Pitbull!!

[jones89]

Ohh this should be fun :dance:

[Benjamin]

Some of those fit the beat of the dance perfectly :clap1:

Bloody good effort all. This was hard.

[jones89]

That was a tough week. Hopefully onto something a tad easier this week :joker:

[Benjamin]

That was a tough week. Hopefully onto something a tad easier this week :joker:

Honestly, I want to say so much about mine but will wait until I’m out/the end. But was super hard, much more than I had anticipated it to be. :laugh:

I think everyone did a good job with dances, especially as some of those we’ve never encountered/heard of before.

[Strictly Jake]

Wow it really was close at the bottom 3. Wonder if killer votes altered the bottom.

It's hard to work out if they affected it much to be honest

[Kate!]

That was a tough week. Hopefully onto something a tad easier this week :joker:

It's Girlbands V Boybands. Stay tuned. We have to choose.

[Strictly Jake]

I'll send out dances later I'm off to the cinema to see Wicked

[Kate!]

I'll send out dances later I'm off to the cinema to see Wicked

Wait when do we choose girlbands or boybands?

[jones89]

Honestly, I want to say so much about mine but will wait until I’m out/the end. But was super hard, much more than I had anticipated it to be. :laugh:

I think everyone did a good job with dances, especially as some of those we’ve never encountered/heard of before.

Yeah exactly. Ranking them was quite hard too, i thought they were all decent tbf

[Benjamin]

I'll send out dances later I'm off to the cinema to see Wicked

Oh have fun! Let us know if it’s any good.

[Benjamin]

Yeah exactly. Ranking them was quite hard too, i thought they were all decent tbf

Oh god yeah it was

[jones89]

Wait when do we choose girlbands or boybands?

I think.. if i read it right we get assigned either a boyband or girlband by jake.. probably when we get the dances..

[Kate!]

I think.. if i read it right we get assigned either a boyband or girlband by jake.. probably when we get the dances..

No we get to choose and it's first come first served. That's why I've stayed online....

[Benjamin]

I think.. if i read it right we get assigned either a boyband or girlband by jake.. probably when we get the dances..

Yeah that’s how I understood it too.

[Kate!]

Yeah that’s how I understood it too.

Noooooooo read it again.

[Benjamin]

No we get to choose and it's first come first served. That's why I've stayed online....

No I think he meant any boy or girl band but be quick to choose one so somebody else doesn’t nab them . Like popular/well known ones will likely be opted for first.

[Kate!]

The next theme is Girlbands VS Boybands.

There will be 8 players left. So it's going to be four Girlbands and four Boybands. We are going back to old school strictly dances youll be pleased to know. 4 of you will be told you need to choose from a boyband and 4 will be told you get to choose a girlband. Try and claim your band quick though because if someone has already chosen the band you won't be able to choose them.

Here!!

[Benjamin]

Ahh so he’s pre-determined the boy and girl bands. I’ll stop looking at songs for now then. :laugh:

[Kate!]

Ahh so he’s pre-determined the boy and girl bands. I’ll stop looking at songs for now then. :laugh:

Next time just listen to me :smug:

[Benjamin]

Next time just listen to me :smug:

No, I shan’t. :pipe:

[jones89]

Yeah just need to wait and see if we get a boyband or girlband.. should be fun :dance:

[Benjamin]

Watch Jake pick some obscure Peruvian girl and boy bands from the 60’s. :laugh:

[jones89]

Watch Jake pick some obscure Peruvian girl and boy bands from the 60’s. :laugh:

:joker:
Nah i’m sure we get to choose the band, we just get told if we have a boyband or girlband.. here’s hoping.. i’m confusing myself here :conf: :joker:

[Benjamin]

:joker:
Nah i’m sure we get to choose the band, we just get told if we have a boyband or girlband.. here’s hoping.. i’m confusing myself here :conf: :joker:

Nah I think Kate’s right. I think he’s picked 4 of each and once told if we’re boy or girl band we have to choose from one of them, first come first serve.

[jones89]

Nah I think Kate’s right. I think he’s picked 4 of each and once told if we’re boy or girl band we have to choose from one of them, first come first serve.

Ah well.. you might still end up with a peruvian band from the 60s then :joker:

[Cherie]

Aw Kaz, loved that song

[Cherie]

Nah I think Kate’s right. I think he’s picked 4 of each and once told if we’re boy or girl band we have to choose from one of them, first come first serve.


so whoever is last gets no choice :worry:

[Benjamin]

so whoever is last gets no choice :worry:

I guess so. :laugh:

[Kate!]

so whoever is last gets no choice :worry:

We'll all have to camp out online lol till Jake comes back and then get hammering the pm button. Lol.

[Kate!]

It'll obviously be Boy and Girlbands with extensive back catalogues so we have plenty of choice.

[AnnieK]

Ahh so he’s pre-determined the boy and girl bands. I’ll stop looking at songs for now then. :laugh:

I don't think jake has determined the bands but what he means is if you get girl bands and two people pick say Little Mix, the person who sends second won't be able to use Little Mix

[Benjamin]

I don't think hake has determined the bands but what he means is if you get girl bands and two people pick say Little Mix, the person who sends second won't be able to use Little Mix

That’s what I thought too but Kate said it’s not that :laugh:

[Kate!]

I don't think jake has determined the bands but what he means is if you get girl bands and two people pick say Little Mix, the person who sends second won't be able to use Little Mix

But that's what he said Annie? We choose from either 4 boybands or 4 girlbands.

[Benjamin]

See I didn’t think he had because he didn’t say he’d already picked the bands. Guess we’ll see when he’s back.

[AnnieK]

He just said 4 will have to choose a girl band and 4 will have to choose a boy band, he didn't say he'd picked the bands already.

It will depend on the dance you get what fits anyway....plus it makes it very unfair if people are not online and it's not feasible for people to camp out on here.

[Kate!]

See I didn’t think he had because he didn’t say he’d already picked the bands. Guess we’ll see when he’s back.

I know it must be right because if I'm wrong why would he specify we choose from 4 bands then hmmm. It makes complete sense.

[Benjamin]

I know it must be right because if I'm wrong why would he specify we choose from 4 bands then hmmm. It makes complete sense.

I took it as 4 of us are picking from girl bands and 4 of us are picking from boy bands.

[AnnieK]

I know it must be right because if I'm wrong why would he specify we choose from 4 bands then hmmm. It makes complete sense.

Where has he specified we have to choose from 4 bands? He said there will be 4 girl bands and 4 boys bands.. but that's just the number of us left surely.

Ah well, guess Jake will clarify but I hope it's not what you think as it seems unfair unless he waits for everyone to be online at the same time and sends the dances beforehand

[Cherie]

We'll all have to camp out online lol till Jake comes back and then get hammering the pm button. Lol.

we will all have different dances so it wont be so bad

[Kate!]

Where has he specified we have to choose from 4 bands? He said there will be 4 girl bands and 4 boys bands.. but that's just the number of us left surely.

Ah well, guess Jake will clarify but I hope it's not what you think as it seems unfair unless he waits for everyone to be online at the same time and sends the dances beforehand

Well we will see. Either way he's doing it, it's still gonna be first come first served.

[Benjamin]

Well we will see. Either way he's doing it, it's still gonna be first come first served.

Hopefully though it’s any as there defo more range.

[AnnieK]

Hopefully though it’s any as there defo more range.

Yeah bit easier if there's more than 4 bands to choose from

[Kate!]

Hopefully though it’s any as there defo more range.

Yeah bit easier if there's more than 4 bands to choose from

Yes I do actually agree I'd prefer that too. There's so many to choose from. I hope you're correct after all.

[AnnieK]

Yes I do actually agree I'd prefer that too. There's so many to choose from. I hope you're correct after all.

I guess we'll find out soon enough.... :worry:

[Benjamin]

What I’d love for is a Christmas themed week next round (whilst there’s still loads of us) where we have to pick a Christmas themed song and choose our own dance from the usual strictly dances) to match it.

Get us in the mood for Christmas.

[jones89]

It’s such a good theme, love it. Anyone else feeling like they know what the twist is gonna be? I’m sensing a double elimination :worry:

[Benjamin]

I’m putting decorations up tomorrow and just fetched them from the attic, hence why I’m thinking Christmas :laugh:

[Benjamin]

It’s such a good theme, love it. Anyone else feeling like they know what the twist is gonna be? I’m sensing a double elimination :worry:

I don’t want to guess and ruin it, but I suspect what it could be based on what he’s said so far.

[Kate!]

Hi fellow contestants...Jake has briefly let me know that he had to leave the cinema halfway through the film due to a sudden sickness bug and therefore doesn't feel up to sending out dances etc tonight. He's not clarified whether he'll send dances before we choose our bands or whether he's choosing the 4 bands of each gender or we have free reign. I assume he just wanted to get offline as quickly as possible but I have asked him to clarify when he can.

Watch this space.

[Benjamin]

All good, there’s no rush. Hopefully he feels better soon.

[jones89]

Aw that’s all good.. could do with a day to recover from the last round :joker:

Feel better Jake x

[Kate!]

Jake has quickly clarified that he's not choosing the bands .... it's entirely down to us. He's signed off for the night now.

Hope Jake is ok. There is a bug going round. I've had it myself recently.

[Benjamin]

Hope Jake is ok. There is a bug going round. I've had it myself recently.

Yeah I had it last week, was bloody awful.

[AnnieK]

Oh no....hope everyone feels better soon :love:

[Strictly Jake]

Thanks everyone. I'm feeling a little bit better this morning. I was so annoyed I missed half the film! I had to go sit in the car while the rest of my family watched it as I was seconds from passing out it was hideous. So I'll be going back and watching it as the bits I saw were really good. I've been up all night with this bug but yeah not feeling too bad now so all the dances have been sent out.

Sorry for any confusion what I meant is I've selected which four are getting Boybands and which four are getting Girlbands. But I've not selected the bands themselves that's up to you. But if a boyband or Girlband has already been chosen they won't be able to be chosen again

[Benjamin]

Aww, that’s so annoying with the film. Hopefully you shake it soon and go back and watch it.

Will you say which ones have been chosen in here, save people hunting for a song to find the band has been taken?

[Strictly Jake]

If people want to pm me with their choice of band to claim them and then have time to think about which song that's acceptable

[AnnieK]

Thanks Jake.....hope you feel better soon

Now please can I have your rankings. It's important this week to use your killer votes trust me

[Kate!]

7 points down to 1 point?

[Strictly Jake]

7 points down to 1 point?

That's right

[Kate!]

That's right

Doing it right now!

[Strictly Jake]

Just realised I didn't do my ranking for around the world week...

I'll do it now

9 My favourite of the night was Alan Carr with his Enya Ribbon Dance. Simply beautiful!

8 My next favourite was Kylie Minogue with her Taylor Swift Tinkiling. This person was super brave for choosing this as their dance as its quite tricky to find a song to match. I matched this along with the dance example video and it went along so well!

7 My next favourite was Michelle Keegan with her ACDC cover for her polka. Again pretty hard to find a song to match but this was so fun to listen to

6 Next would be Emma Watson with her bwitched Riverdance. Iconic!

5 going into my bottom 5 is Mutya. Her Leigh Anne pinnock Shaku Shaku. I feel this was a bit of a safe choice. I thought something a little bit more special could have been done with it

4 next is Holly Willoughby. What is love funnily enough matched the dance well I wouldnt have thought it worked but actually it was a clever choice. I just preferred the other dances above

3 Going into my bottom three now. It's Jennifer Aniston. Happy did match the dance but it's one of my least favourite songs of all time

2 Leona Lewis just misses out with her shape of you Indian routine, at being the bottom. I felt this was a bit of a safe decision. It wasn't bad at all but just safe

1 Dwayne was at the bottom for me simply because the song had literally just been used on strictly. I'm not keen when songs have been used on strictly before in general, but only just used yeah that's not scoring high for me!

[Benjamin]

Sent and I wish to not listen to any more boy/girl band songs for a while now :laugh:

[Strictly Jake]

For those who havent played this before week 6 is always when drama starts on the game. So let's see if it happens again

[Benjamin]

As in tactical voting stronger players?

[Livia]

Sent my results. Let the drama begin...

[Benjamin]

Sent my results. Let the drama begin...

What drama? :laugh:

I’ve not played this before. What happens at week 6?

[Livia]

As in tactical voting stronger players?

Tactical voting? I've been playing with a straight bat... You're like some kind of duplicitous spy, Ben...

[Livia]

What drama? :laugh:

I’ve not played this before. What happens at week 6?

LOL... I have no idea, Jake said it's when the drama begins. I was relying on you for the drama...

[Strictly Jake]

What drama? :laugh:

I’ve not played this before. What happens at week 6?

People start kicking off at others. But might not happen this time as noone knows who's playing as who. Sometimes arguments go over two pages...let's see if it happens this time

[Benjamin]

Tactical voting? I've been playing with a straight bat... You're like some kind of duplicitous spy, Ben...

I was asking if that is what drama was in week 6. I’ve been voting my faves in order and that won’t be changing. :tongue:

I know I’m known for tactics in games haha, but I see this more as a competition so I’m ranking fairly. :laugh:

[Benjamin]

Ahhh, I see so usually you all know who is who! Yeah I can imagine there would have been tactical voting that way :laugh:

You're a bit of a let down. Who's bringing the drama if not you? All the clever money was on you...

[Benjamin]

LOL... I have no idea, Jake said it's when the drama begins. I was relying on you for the drama...

I always bring drama. ;)

I’ll kick off when I’m booted out.

[Livia]

I always bring drama. ;)

I respectfully refer you to my previous post x

[Benjamin]

It’s impressive Kate and I have played a game together for this long without arguing :clap1:

[Strictly Jake]

Ahhh, I see so usually you all know who is who! Yeah I can imagine there would have been tactical voting that way :laugh:

Well usually it's not rankings. We usually have judges. The judges don't know who sent what song before they score. The two with the lowest score entered a forum poll to send one home. However people would always kick off this stage about the judges decisions

[Benjamin]

Oh hahahaha. I’m here for drama tbf :devil:

[Cherie]

I cant see any drama as it is usually the contestents kicking off at the judges for marking their song too low, but given no one knows what scores have been given by an individual it would be like kicking at air

[Strictly Jake]

Yeah I've preferred the rankings thing this series, credit to Kate for that idea! This has been my favourite series yet. Definitely prefer it with the celebrities. It will be returning next year with the same format, different celebs and I hope to have you all on board once again

But we have the rest of this series yet

[Benjamin]

Yeah, I really like this format you’ve gone with.

Do you remember the Monty Python sketch, where they depicted a Townswomen's Guild re-enacting the Battle of Pearl Harbour? That's how I imagine the drama would have gone...

[jones89]

Ah alright. It’s definitely cool with the celebs.. it’s like a mash up of Strictly and The Masked Singer.. or Dancer.. not knowing who anyone is :joker:

[Kate!]

[Nicky91]

i deffo would've used Backstreet Boys, but then something from their more recent album DNA (which is Mega GEIL :love:)

[Benjamin]

It would have depended which dance you got though too lol

[Strictly Jake]

I can now reveal the twist, and I'll be transparent with you the twist changed twice in the time that I initially announced it.

I brought Vanessa AKA Mcfly member Danny Jones back as a secret judge and I sent her the song list I didn't state which celebrity had sent which song. Initially I was going to tell her to choose who performed better the boybands or the girlbands. Whatever she chose they would all be safe from the vote. So it would only be the four players who had Boybands that were up for elimination or vise versa. I realised this was wayyy too harsh so I changed it to whatever she chose those players would all get four extra points added to their rankings. Again I felt this was a bit unfair. So in the end I went for quite a nice twist, whatever she preferred out of the boybands and Girlbands she could then choose one of the songs as her favourite and that player would get

The Gift of the Glitterball. This is a free pass through to next week.

I had to still do something as I did announce a twist

But I felt it was a nice twist.

So you'll find out soon who got the Gift of the Glitterball.
