Don't worry, I think that I'm going in this round.:laugh:

Ok this is my least favourite round. :laugh:

Really? I love it, too many choices though. I was torn between 3 songs so i hope I chose wisely :worry:

Finding endless Americans while searching using an American algorithm that connects to an American website while using an American internet connection... Amazingly,

I'm going to have to find one quick, I think. My daughter has been asking me all morning "to take off her nose". So maybe the beginnings of a cold might be brewing. (She seems perfectly fine though and is currently climbing all over me from behind as we speak)

…I have to say that I hadn’t read the Brit icon part first either….good luck, yeah I see that some decades would be more tricky …shouting support from the hot tub area for you all…

Which dances do you think that you would struggle with personally for this round?

And out of interest, who do you think everyone is?

I should've worded it better, which Forum member's identity do you think that you've caught onto?

I did see the british part and i was still looking at songs by American artists.. think i was too focused on my decade haha

Worst round for me. British Icons restricted to a certain decade and a certain dance is so difficult... I've wasted so much time searching I'm just going for something that roughly fits.

I kept finding YT lists with British artists and I'm like I don't know who any of these people are :laugh:... hard to say whether they were iconic or not...if they were famous in the US also, that's a good sign, maybe, I think?

So a musical that started after 2020 or has just played after 2020?

[Strictly Jake]

So a musical that started after 2020 or has just played after 2020?

Doesn't have to have been started after 2020 just been performed in the west end since 2020. Such as Mamma Mia has been on for years and years but as it was being performed in the west end still after 2020 it counts

I’ll try do my rankings tomorrow, got the doctors so probably after that?

[Liam-]

Does it have to a video of the performance or just a version of a song from a musical that was on at that time?

Same here.:laugh:

If I'm lucky enough to reach the top 8, I pray for Halloween night.:fc:

My fave rounds last season were jungle and world music.

[Mystic Mock]

My fave rounds last season were jungle and world music.

Is that Reggae songs?

[Benjamin]

Is that Reggae songs?

No haha (I thought it was jungle genre at first lol). It was songs with jungle related song titles or artists. Was a great open category with loads of options to play with.

For example Katy Perry - Roar would count

[Strictly Jake]

Does it have to be the cast version of the song?

Ideally yes.

[Benjamin]

Ideally yes.

Just realised the one I just sent you isn’t the cast version. Will try find a cast version later this evening.

[Niamh.]

Ideally yes.

So yes? Because the original versions will most likely sound better so if I'm sending a cast version I don't want to be put last because everyone else sent the version by the original artists that don't sound so "stagey"? :laugh:

[AnnieK]

Are people sending now before the results?

:eek: I don't like to tempt fate but worried that someone will take the musical that is perfect for my dance

[Benjamin]

I personally wouldn’t mark down for that. Similar to the celebrity singing show round, some of the older ones were not of greatest quality but it didn’t affect my scoring.

[Niamh.]

Are people sending now before the results?

:eek: I don't like to tempt fate but worried that someone will take the musical that is perfect for my dance

I'm just looking, this round is hard, I hate musicals :laugh:

[Benjamin]

That was the reason I chose so soon.

Currently drinking a chilli and mango martini. :dazzler:

:hehe: I used to love musicals and used to regularly go to the West End but I have gone off them, it would have to be something amazing to tempt me back, that said going to the Rocky Horror Show in August, though I hate Timewarp with a passion and don't know anything about the show, so not sure why I agreed to go :laugh:

Oh actually i don’t mind Rocky Horror. I’ve only ever seen the movie though

[Strictly Jake]

If it's easier, with me wanting cast versions, Broadway cast versions are acceptable to as long as the musical has been on the London West end stage in the last 5 years.

[Niamh.]

I love musicals but making it be actual cast recordings is far harder than necessary imo :joker:

I suppose in Jakes defense he's mixing it up a bit, the game can get a bit samey otherwise (even though I curse him :fist: )

[Strictly Jake]

I don't think it's hard, there's got to be nearly 50 musicals to choose from, YouTube has an abundance of cast recordings. The Cast recordings don't even have to be from the last 5 years, but the musical does.

I have to make it a little bit challenging, if I just said send me a musical, I'd prob be sent nearly the whole greatest showman soundtrack.

[Strictly Jake]

Think of a musical, see if it has been performed in the west end in the last 5 years, then YouTube will very likely have a cast recording off a song from that musical somewhere. I don't think I'm asking that much guys.

[Strictly Jake]

If someone manages to send me a song from my favorite current musical on the west end I shall give them a bonus point...

[Liam-]

That’s a much better explanation tbf, the way you worded it originally was that you wanted a cast recordings from a show during the time restraints, which was what was making it more difficult

[Niamh.]

Oh wait, what? The recording doesn't have to be from the last 5 years? so it could be from the 80's if there was a different version of the play back then? What about if it was a film but also in the West End in the last 5 years? Could you send the films version by the film cast?


***I would never choose The Greatest Showman :hee:

[Ammi]

… because it’s not a dance that has been given, I’m going to try to find a song in the theme for the Paso Doble just for the holy heck of it…

[Strictly Jake]

That’s a much better explanation tbf, the way you worded it originally was that you wanted a cast recordings from a show during the time restraints, which was what was making it more difficult

Oh right, no, it's more likely cast versions will be from further back than 5 years. As I said Broadway cast versions are included in the rules. The basic rule is the musical should have been in the west end within the last 5 years and if it started on the west end a lot longer than 5 years ago but is still on the west end, or had been within the last 5 years that's included. So there is a massive wide range to choose from

[Benjamin]

Oh wait, what? The recording doesn't have to be from the last 5 years? so it could be from the 80's if there was a different version of the play back then? What about if it was a film but also in the West End in the last 5 years? Could you send the films version by the film cast?


***I would never choose The Greatest Showman :hee:

Yeah. As long as it’s been still shown at the west end sometime between 2020-2025.

***I would never choose The Greatest Showman :hee:

Hmm see I should include movie cast versions but it would seem too much like movie week again. Using an actual stage cast version is going to give it that musicals Week feel. But yeah doesn't matter when it was recorded as long as the musical has been on a west end stage in the last 5 years.

[Benjamin]

… because it’s not a dance that has been given, I’m going to try to find a song in the theme for the Paso Doble just for the holy heck of it…

That’s too easy. I want you to find a dance for Belly Dance. :smug:

You can suffer like the rest of us. ;)

[Strictly Jake]

… because it’s not a dance that has been given, I’m going to try to find a song in the theme for the Paso Doble just for the holy heck of it…

Go for it. But it better not be the phantom of the opera ammi that's far too easy :fist:

Ok no movies but any cast version of the song as long as a version of the play has been in the west end (or Broadway?) in the last 5 years? or is just the version can be from broadway but the play has had to have been on the West End?

[Ammi]

That’s too easy. I want you to find a dance for Belly Dance. :smug:

The recording can be from Broadway, but the musical needs to have been on the west end stage in the last 5 years.

[Strictly Jake]

Don't forget an extra point is at stake if someone manages to choose my fave musical

It's my FIL who is technically here for a work trip to visit a few places in TX but they are here to check here also locally so it works out that they can come visit. Mostly just hanging out with little one and we are looking at an early Father's Day kind of thing... :love: Doing last minute prep stuff...

Nice, that’s handy they’re visiting locally. When is Father’s Day in USA?

[Strictly Jake]

so the results are in...

[Benjamin]

Omg the results :worry:

Good luck all.

[Strictly Jake]

In 1st place with 58 points are Anne and Kai with their Jive to the who my generation

[Strictly Jake]

In 2nd Place are Pedro and Nadiya with 49 points with their contemporary to Kate Bush Babooshka

[Strictly Jake]

In 3rd Place are Chris and Karen with their Ameircan Smooth to Ain't That a kick in the head by Robbie Williams and Keira and Gorka with their Quickstep to Spice Girls Wannabe. Both on 45 points.

[Strictly Jake]

In 4th place are Tom and Michelle on 43 points with their street dance to Gorillaz feel good inc

[Strictly Jake]

The couples in 5th Place are Cheryl and Giovanni with their Rumba to Take That How deep is your love and Shania and Johannes with their Tango to David Bowie Golden years. Both on 42 points.

[Benjamin]

Gosh, other than 1st these points are close :worry:

[Benjamin]

Just realised I've missed someone off!!

Actually in 2nd Place is Britney and Nikita with 48 points with their Waltz to Peter Gabriel Don't give up.

They’d be 3rd :tongue:

[Strictly Jake]

OK let me try again...

[Benjamin]

OK let me try again...

Shall I get you a coffee? :laugh:

[Strictly Jake]

It was Anne and Kai 1st
Pedro and Nadiya 2nd
Britney and Nikita 3rd
Chris and Karen 4th
Keira and Gorka 4th
Tom and Michelle 5th
Cheryl 6th
Shania 6th

[Strictly Jake]

Shall I get you a coffee? :laugh:

Yes please :joker:

[Strictly Jake]

So 2 couples are still in danger!

Rihanna and Carlos and Eva and Neil

[Strictly Jake]

And it's a draw...which hasn't happened before...on this series anyway...

Rihanna and Carlos viennese Waltz to The Beatles Penny Lane

Eva and Neil Foxtrot to Rod Stewart Do ya think I'm sexy

Both scored 39 points

[Strictly Jake]

Which now means apart from the players playing as those 2 celebs need to send me a pm as to who you want to SAVE out of Rihanna and Eva!

[Benjamin]

Oh. What happens in a draw? Is it like Eurovision where whoever got most 10 points, 9 points, 8 points etc goes through?

Oh just seen the above.

[Benjamin]

Not going to say if I’ve sent a PM or not. Otherwise would reveal if I was/wasn’t one of those celebs.

[Strictly Jake]

Yeah noone say on here if you sent a pm or not just send me it

[Benjamin]

I can’t believe only 10 points between 2nd and 10th though. That was close this round.

[Strictly Jake]

Told you it was a close one! And to have a draw as to who might get Eliminated!

[Benjamin]

The extra suspense on the round most of us thought we’d be going too. :joker:

[Niamh.]

ohhhhh tense

[Strictly Jake]

Had half of the people send in so far...and it's still a draw

[Niamh.]

Had half of the people send in so far...and it's still a draw

:laugh2:

[Benjamin]

lol. What happens if it’s a draw again? Who got most 10, 9, 8 points etc?

[Niamh.]

lol. What happens if it’s a draw again? Who got most 10, 9, 8 points etc?

Pity it isn't an uneven number. Maybe Jake should get the past contestants to vote in the tie breaker if that happens?

[Benjamin]

Pity it isn't an uneven number. Maybe Jake should get the past contestants to vote in the tie breaker if that happens?

True.

[Kate!]

Have any more tie break votes been sent?

[Ammi]

….oh nail biting…!!!!!….I do have a preferred one so it’ll be interesting to see what the tie breaker brings…

[Maru]

[Ammi]

[Maru]

As long as it doesnt look as gross as the carpet in the BB house after 6-7 weeks. Wigs and hair extensions and crisps floating everywhere..

[Ammi]

…oh you have actually popped in for a visit, then…:fan:…

[Strictly Jake]

Waiting on one person but going off their rankings it's gonna be equal again.

Therefore I ask if past contestants could also pm me to say who they wish to save between Rihanna and Eva Longoria. Lines close in one hour!! Be quick

[Ammi]

…voted if it’s needed…do we exes say who in the thread as neither can be us…?…

[Strictly Jake]

Maru!!!

Maru will be joining Oti for an elimination interview shortly

[Benjamin]

Awww Maru :(

[Kate!]

Argh aww Maru. You did fantastically well.

Tough decision for ex players to have to make.

[Barry.]

[Cherie]

as a matter of interest which ex contestents voted

[Maru]

I'm sad to announce the player leaving us and who was amazing is...

Maru!!!

Maru will be joining Oti for an elimination interview shortly

I knew it!!!!

(I didn't know sh*t but going to run around screaming pretending that I did)

Awww Maru :(

Argh aww Maru. You did fantastically well.

Tough decision for ex players to have to make.

Aww Maru :(, you will be missed

It's been really great and I really enjoyed it :love: I'm very happy to have made it as far as I did :laugh: Good luck literally to whoever wins and please buy a lottery ticket

[Strictly Jake]

aw Maru I would have saved you, I literally hate the Beatles but didnt get a chance to vote

as a matter of interest which ex contestents voted

Only ammi did, however I did say I was closing them at 4.20pm and your vote would have made it tie once again anyway

[Maru]

aw Maru I would have saved you, I literally hate the Beatles but didnt get a chance to vote

as a matter of interest which ex contestents voted

I had them at 7 points even though I also really dislike the 60s, but ranked them high for the creativities

[Cherie]

I had them at 7 points even though I also really dislike the 60s, but ranked them high for the creativities

Same I really dislike 60s music :laugh: gutted you are out :bawling::fist:

[Livia]

Sorry Maru, you played a great game x

[Ammi]

…oh noooo, Maru…I’m so, so sorry…I feel so awful if it was my vote and I you’ve been completely superb…:love:…I knew from when it was a tiebreaker, which one I would have saved and it wasn’t for which one I liked more as a song…?…I’d just listened to them both a few times with their dances and felt that the other one went a little better with the dance it was matched with…it was obviously a very tough call for everyone as it was so, so close to the nail-biting end….I’m so sorry but welcome to the hot tub party area, though…:love:…

[Ammi]

Yes dancing to my favorite Roomba :love:

[AnnieK]

Aw Maru...gutted you're gone :sad:

[Niamh.]

Aw no, sorry to see you go Maru 😢

[Benjamin]

Maru going in the most suspenseful and dramatic fashion though. Strictly icon. :clap1:

[Dogeatdog]

Aww sorry to see you go Maru �� at least you can join me, Cherie and Ammi backstage for some champagne and terrorising the remaining contestants :laugh:

[Mystic Mock]

You did really well Maru.

Especially on Eurovision night, because I did tbh wonder if you would struggle with that particular theme due to it obviously being a European centric contest.

And in this round you did take it to a tie breaker, which is mad impressive imo given that I would not have a clue what to pick for a 70's Foxtrot to British Icons.:laugh:

You'll be missed in the competition.

[Strictly Jake]

Join us for our musical matinee Today at 2.30pm.

[Niamh.]

Bit apprehensive about this one, not a fan of the musicals

[Liam-]

I tried to change my song twice but both were from musicals that were already being used, I’m not confident again :joker:

[Niamh.]

I tried to change my song twice but both were from musicals that were already being used, I’m not confident again :joker:Ah I didn't realise that was a rule, same song obviously yeah but same Musical isn't allowed either?

[Benjamin]

Bit apprehensive about this one, not a fan of the musicals

Same. I think so far Eurovision has been the only round I felt somewhat confident in as I know it. But then everyone smashed it. :laugh:

[Strictly Jake]

Ah I didn't realise that was a rule, same song obviously yeah but same Musical isn't allowed either?

Yeah I said it was first come first served I didn't want a musical used more than once. I like everyone's choices it's gonna be a good one

As Benjamin has said a couple of times he liked how jungle was a theme last time so next week, I'm going to do something similar. We will have a theme of Weather.

[Niamh.]

[Benjamin]

Ohhh yeees great theme next round. Watch me not make it now. :joker:

[Kate!]

Ooooh I hope I get to do the weather theme but anything can happen. I like my musicals choice but as everyone is bringing their A game every week I'm not confident. You're all really deserving.

[Strictly Jake]
