General Chat

I agree AC, he seems stiff and puppetlike from the shoulders up with that plastic smile........reminds me of Archie Andrews!

Looking forward to seeing Peter Andre and whether his pop moves translate into other dancing. I think he will work hard but I'm also thinking he might be a bit of a show off.

Ah Anton, I don't believe he knows his luck. A partner that can put one foot in front of the other without falling over.

Well some very good uns and some not so good.

Only time will tell who will be first out, but my money is on either Jeremy or Carole.

Unfortunately some others will be kept in because of their popularity. I just hope it does not carry on too long to the detriment of others.

But.............that is Strictly!!

Good to see Anton having a great time. :-)

Oh dear, poor old Carole was not very good was she?

Not quite as bad as Mother Murray, but still a bit stilted.

All in all, quite a good opening.

See Craig is still doing his Dowager act. He looks as if he has a bad smell under his nose.

Cant wait for Old Snake Hips Brendan to do his stuff tomorrow.

<3 <3 <3

I will be watching.

Another reminder folk.

First show tonight at 9pm.

The first 6 contestants.


Now where did I put me spangles?

The twinkly ones.................not the sweets.

:-D :-D :-D :-D

already earmarked :-D :-D

Just to remind you all, the first of the live shows is on FRIDAY night. The second is on Saturday night.

The Saturday night one is on early, so it does not clash with the England Rugby match.

Hoping there will be nifty footwork in the dancing and the rugby.

:-D :-D :-D

Anton was gobsmacked to have someone who could actually move properly :-D

I don't see Kristina having a passionate affair with Daniel O'Donnell somehow - he has the personality of a plank

Thanks Ann some interesting pairings there :-)

We were away and unable to see it. Is there a list anywhere of who is with whom?

Well he could not contain himself he got her :-D

I did think it rude what the actress from Call the Midwife
said that she was happy she didn't get Anton.

Bit dark too! So was Craig's. Why not take a leaf out of dear old Len's book?

Seems like Anton has his hands full with the perpetual grinning Katie. Quite the live wire. Got to give it to her though, she was flinging herself around.


:-D :-D :-D

I couldn't take my eyes off Bruno's hair,
has he lost some hair at the front cause
it looks like its brushed over from the back. :-S

well they all seemed pretty good in the group dance but I reckon first out will either be Daniel O'Donnell or Jeremy Vine

No Ann, there is always a list of 'possible' contestants, but the final line up is never the same.

Good pairings so far, but who know who will be any good.

Still a few people I am not too keen on, but time will tell.

And we have a new Italian Stallion!

;-)

so Alan Titchmarsh ain't in it

Getting quite excited now. I will have to powder my nose................again! :-D

I wonder who Anton will get lumbered with?

:-(
