this year for me is the first year i am finding out about myself i am more like Len Goodman, also preferring traditional dancing than the new and inventive dancing

:amazed:

all of them

Len is a twat

yeah ok fair if that's your opinion


with the craig vs Shirley thing last week, i did side with Shirley, she knows a lot more than Craig about all of the dances, her son Mark has won or finished runner up at DWTS USA many times


she is right about those with dancing experience to be giving them harsher criticism than those without dancing experience


regarding Lauren this week, if she can have the basic cha cha technique combined with the fab performing skills she had last week in the charleston well i will be happy, but i'm not being too confident now, that's where i made the mistake last week being a bit too confident for her


Katie can prove to us this week with the foxtrot that she can glide across the dancefloor, the training clip of her looked way better than i was expecting

update on what we can expect in the opening group dance, a tribute to Harry Potter :flutter:

:douf: oh wow Matthew nice to see you in here

i think potential show openers for tonight could be: Danny, Ashley, Vick, Faye they have real good show opener worthy song/dance choices

one of those to open the show, and another of those 4 to close the show i think

what i would choose for Faye & Giovanni next week

Samba to Echame La Culpa by Luis Fonsi & Demi Lovato

that could make me like them more, rather than what they now do with cringey, childish dancing, i need sexy performances from Faye :fist:

but anyway, i am excited for tonight's show

wonder who will go this week, hard to call now that Susannah is out

just watched a few of them so ik who’s decent and who’s not for if i do watch tonight

i see they still find the crappest music to play during dances
aj still can’t be much older than 14 surely?
and i like ashley and dr ranj

he was much more immature in his first year though ;)

and his fanbase has grown a lot now, over 220k followers, Lauren went from 10k followers before strictly to 24k followers now

Dr Ranj is good fun yes, i love that he will play Aladdin this week for the quickstep to Prince Ali

AJ is fit

Lauren is hot as well, i prefer long hair for her though, unlike the charleston wig she had, i personally didn't like that for her

hope he enjoyed his 14th birthday party

she isnt hot

stop telling lies

she is not ugly, LT, stop telling lies

AJ is fit, but all male dancers (apart from anton) are tbh

thank you TS2 :love:


anyhow who i can see struggling tonight

Graeme, he's quite tall and i agree with Tom Allen who said on ITT last night he might struggle with the quick energetic charleston techniques, i do hope it's a fun performance though

Seann, tbh i can see his Paso coming over as wooden technically, but the special effects what they have in store for us could be phenomenal i think

Vick, i cannot see a salsa to that Mamma Mia song :shrug:

group picture Movies week :love:

No she’s not

ok ok, she's not hot, but more naturally beautiful like a princess


btw some facts about the song what Lauren is dancing to

it was #1 in Belgium, Ireland, Netherlands, New Zealand, UK, US Dance Songs chart, and also top 10 in Australia, France, South Africa, Sweden and US Cash Box Top 100 between 1980 and 1983

remember my name fame :dance2:

btw Stacey yellow minion :flutter: Lauren looking perfectly like Irene Cara, and the longer hair YASS :love:

but yeah nice outfits again, Dr Ranj and Janette only needed a costume, they already had the correct hair to play Aladdin and Jasmine :hee:

noone said she was ugly except you :nono:

she is not hot however that would be lies

she is fairly plain looking

Stacey has amazing hair colour
