Incidentally why claim it’s made up ?

Because it doesn’t fit in with your ideals ?


It all sounds like she was a pretty serious dancer if we’re being honest here and the proof is in the pudding .. so she has all the basics down plus she obviously had a feel for dancing and natural timing ..

As regards the made up slow dancing
.::

Ai overview

Slow dancing is a simple, intimate partner dance focusing on swaying to slow music, often called the "hug and sway," involving basic steps like forward-and-back movement with weight transfer, commonly using a "fox trot" or "foxy" style for beginners, incorporating a gentle sway and rotation, and is popular at social events like weddings for its relaxed, romantic feel poo

Slow dancing is something you do at a school disco. It is not a genre, it's not something you take classes in. You know that though, right? You're not even making it up, you're getting AI to do that for you.

I am aware of your history with Karen Carney. I've read some of the things you've said about her. Try to let your hatred go, this is not football. Your misogyny will not wash here.

Also, FFS.... The proof is NOT in the pudding. The proof of the pudding IS IN THE EATING.

Ai overview



The proof is in the pudding is an expression that means the value, quality, or truth of something must be judged based on direct experience with it—or on its results.

The expression is an alteration of an older saying that makes the meaning a bit clearer: the proof of the pudding is in the eating.

You seem to have conveniently forgotten that she also trained in other genres, including street, hip-hop, disco, rock 'n' roll etc


Ai overview

What "Slow Dancing" Refers To:
A Dance Style: A simple, romantic, "hug-and-sway" partner dance where minimal footwork allows for conversation

Apologies

I’m not particularly good with words so I find the Ai overview to be a rather useful tool

A few interesting snippets .



------

Ginge quickly covered up by saying there were 13 sweets, and Kelly ate the first of the extra three, suggesting that he and Aitch only ate one extra sweet each (the trio split 10 sweets between them and it was Aitch’s idea).

------
Vogue exclaimed, ‘Snakes in the camp!’ before she added, ‘I’m kind of surprised at Kelly. Oh my god! That’s desperate… I’d never do that.’
----


Kelly said: ‘It was a joint idea.
‘People weren’t sharing the contraband so that butter should have gone into a nice bowl of rice and shared out between everybody, and it didn’t.
‘Shona ate the lot, so the minute she ate the lot, I was like, right? Every man took every man for himself, and when we saw those milk bottles, you know, it’s very hard to divide 19 milk bottles between people.

—-/

Jack Osbourne said : "The thievery in this camp! When they got the milk bottles, they ate three of them before bringing them back."

[Zizu]

Interesting

:::

When Ginge tries to argue that it was "only fair" as they won the challenge to win the treats, Aitch jumps in.

"It didn't go down like that. We thought, 'How are we going to split 14 between 10 people.' And then Kelly went, 'Right - go on then.'

"She put one in her mouth and so we had three and there were ten left which we brought back to camp."


Ginge then adds: "But Kelly is the blame for it, I will say that. You'll see when you get out!" to which Martin says: "If you eat something, you're to blame ! “

There's nothing wrong with the way you communicate. I've never struggled to understand what you're saying but I can't deal with AI nonsense.

Thats true about all the search engines we use … they are quite often simply out of date as the streaming services are always adding and deleting movies / tv series

Poor Karen.

Seriously she always comes across really well imo, I genuinely don't understand your issue with her.

Is it just solely because she has a job as a Pundit?

Or how about if people weren't giving out sympathy votes to Balvinder, we might have got rid of the person that's been in the bottom two five times, and soon to be her sixth this week coming.

Why would you suggest everyone who gives votes to those you're not keen on is a sympathy vote? I voted for Karen and Bal this week because I genuinely thought Balvinder has improved from her beginner status and is now quite impressive. I read in the paper yesterday a quote from a Strictly fan who posted while the show was on, "Oh look! There's Amber doing her day job". The article said producers were now clearly aware that the audience will not let professional dancers win. I get that. And yet the suggestion is that if the two professionals end up in the dance off, people must be showering sympathy on someone else. I said from the start the professionals will not be allowed to win and I really don't mind which of the non-dancers take the glitter ball. . No sympathy involved.

Actually, looking at the poison coming from Zizu and Nicky, I hope Karen wins.

Hopefully she does .. then it leads to some other programs for her. … maybe a Strictly World Tour would be great .


Anything that keeps her away from our football programs

Of course.. what else could it be ??

She’s a bonny wee lass .. but she’s totally out of her depth talking about elite level football

What makes it worse is she’s so arrogant and she goes on like she played at the same level as the players she regularly criticises and talks like one of the boys in the pub.
She rarely even comes up with anything she simply recycles what someone else just said or says “ yes I agree with Geoff “

Sadly she’s typical of all the female pundits apart from Sue Smith on Sky Saturdays who is fabulous in comparison

i know you told me not to reply at your posts, but idk what you're talking about poison from me


Kaz has had good routines with all honesty, but last saturday her samba was not good and deservedly bottom of the leaderboard, Carlos should've studied Joe & Katya's cabaret money samba a lot better, in terms of combining fosse style with basic samba content


i hope she reprises her charleston in the final as that was the first dance i actually liked from her and Carlos, and no i don't worry about her chances, pretty sure she'll top the public votes, with a small gap to George


and i think the queen of dance offs Balvinder will meet her match in Amber in the last dance off of the series, also i'd wish Balvinder would no longer cry, nothing to cry about, i mean 5 dance offs and now she is a semi finalist, no reason for any tears lol

It's funny... You say 'our' football programs... My brother and my Dad are footie fans, season ticket holders, avid followers of the game and neither has a problem with women playing nor commentating.

[joeysteele]

As long as he does the routines really well in the semi finals and final if he gets through to the final..
Then I'd be happy to see George win the series.
He'll likely be getting my votes.

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

He has my vote if Bal doesn't make the final

People were openly admitting on DS and Social Media that they were giving spare votes to Balvinder this week because she cried, and they felt sorry for her because of it.

But some of these people that did that particular vote are moaning about Karen and George beating Lewis, when most of their fans didn't go around giving spare votes to Balvinder.

Basically anybody that voted for Balvinder to stay but then moaning about Lewis leaving need to take accountability for their vote, rather than moaning about Karen being more popular with the public on the night.
