No wonder my knees are aching :joker:

Have 3 choices in already

I can rub them for a your vote in this week's play off...I've been given such a hard dance choice for my age.

Sherzyk, AnnieK, Tony and Shaun I still need your songs

Done.

Tony I need your song in the next 3 hours!!

I'm not submitting costume pics this week I have decided its too tricky

Where is Tony????? He only has half an hour left

Whoops I have just sent my sent items and didn't send Tony his dance

Therefore I'll extend the deadline to tomorrow

I'm getting so unprofessional

I did receive your message when you first sent it. I have just sent my song now.

Oh so it was your fault after all. Hahaha!

Guilty as charged! :fan:

Is this happening today?

is this cancelled?

yes Niamh threw a strop because Smudgies songs choices were too good

and Adam gave everyone nil points

so Jake called it a day

Jake must be busy.

Sorry guys I had all the info ready and then my phone dropped and smashed. So im now using my old one which wouldn't let me log in to the forum for ages which was a nightmare so the show has been postponed until tomorrow sorry

Tony and Flavia Foxtrot

Barry: A classic Disney song and a good fit to a dance for the waltz, a foxtrot? Hmm

Niamh: A decent effort but a bit safe

Barry: you tried, but it felt very predictable and wasn’t very ‘musical’ to me (I know beauty and the beast had a musical, but should’ve used that, rather than the film version

Cherie: Perfection

Morgan: Beautiful! Really well done!

Adam: That was the worst of the night
