Better to be safe no doubt and follow medical advice.
I'd imagine the pressure of Strictly can be intense.

Definitely Mock.

Adam dipped last week although I haven't been greatly impressed with him up to now anyway.
The routines haven't been all they could have, for me anyhow.

From my own family and those I discuss Strictly with.
I've never come across such massive enthusiasm after a dance, like I've heard re John and Johannes Paso Doble.

It was really brilliant in my view, a continuous and packed routine.

It will be interesting to see how things go this weekend again too.

I had some hopes for Tilly but she does good though not with that sparkle needed.

Somehow I think Judy and Dan may struggle again.

However, this series is really one of the strongest ever for me as to Strictly.

The faults are few really and seem to not affect the routines at all.
My gripe is when what the dance is and when it's NOT done at least in a major part how it ought to be.

Yes, if they must have segments of a variation, fine, however stick to the disciplines of the dance too mostly too.

But Judy has ballroom, so she should be fine.
The people who have Latin will likely score less.
Apart from Rhys, who I expect will dance a great salsa.
Rose will also do great, but won't be a high score.

Rose I agree does and will do great probably.

How in the week 10s were being dished out, then she didn't get one for that hauntingly beautiful routine she did last weekend, is beyond me.

I agree with you on Adam, I like the guy but he just can't dance from what I've seen so far.

I liked Tilly's Charleston, but that's been about it so far for her.

And John & Johannes so far for me have been so incredibly consistent, I can definitely understand why people are starting to hype them up, especially after the Paso performance (which I can understand why your friends & Family have rated that dance highly) it'll be a shame to see that consistency ruined on Saturday if the American Smooth goes wrong.

And I agree with you that the dances by and large should always have basic steps that need to always be followed, I never understand it when people do a dance and then don't recreate the dance at all.

Unfortunately I’m not going to be able to dance this weekend on the show. I have a history of back problems which has always been managed under the guidance of medical professionals. Unfortunately this has been causing me some unwanted problems this week! I have been advised by medical professionals and with huge support from Strictly to get some treatment & rest to ensure that I can get myself back to full capacity & fighting fit for next week. Gutted Oti & I won’t be dancing this weekend but wishing all the other contestants the best of luck & will be cheering them on from home!

from Ugo's insta

Vanessa · 14-10-2021, 04:19 PM

They're not having much luck this year with the show.

Nicky91 · 14-10-2021, 04:34 PM

at least both aren't COVID related (and one of which might be just temporary) so it means the protocols are working fine, better than DOI

maybe better for Ugo to have a waltz, foxtrot back to back up next if he is able to continue to give him more rest

Nicky91 · 15-10-2021, 01:58 PM

guest performers for next few weeks

week 4 this sunday: Westlife

week 5 next sunday: Craig David, MNEK

week 6 is halloween week

Nicky91 · 16-10-2021, 03:39 PM

the show of tonight starts at 7:10 PM UK Time

if all goes to plan, we should have two weeks of 11 couples then

and if Ugo yesterday already said he's going to return, i don't think his back problem is that severe but indeed just a standard procedure i believe him since he knows best of course (good on production having these standard procedures then anyway)

Wow Tilly that was a strong Paso.

hijaxers · 16-10-2021, 06:44 PM

Craig being a tit again ~ not hard ~ when you're Craig.

joeysteele · 16-10-2021, 06:47 PM

It seemed tame from Tilly and Nikita after last week and the powerful Paso doble from John and Johannes.

However I thought Tilly would struggle with it, how wrong was I, it was a strong performance definitely.
