No secret that I think Gorka is great. He does have plenty of personality, it’s just not in your face or annoying like certain others. First class choreo.

He’s the male pro I’d like to see win next as he’s had the good and the bad over the years and has managed to excel as a pro with totally different types of celebs.

Agree with every single word

He was so funny on ITT this week! From following him and Gemma on insta, I get the impression his sense of humour is a bit too risqué for Strictly a lot of the time 😆. But it's great when he gets a chance to shine
 
I think the pro roster definitely needs freshening up. they’ve not had a big clear out of the pros since 2010. They tend to wait for them to leave off their back now. But Alijaz, Janette and Karen have definitely had their day, so has Anton as a dancer but I think he’s probably untouchable and will stay on until a judging place comes up.

Johannes and Nadiya need to be given ringer next time.

Diane was runner up with Joe only two years ago!

For me it has to be Johannes and Nadia who need to be given ringers.

When you think that Dianne, Amy and Nadiya all started at the same time Nadiya has been done so dirty compared to the other two.

For the past 3 series Dianne has had the young good looking celeb with potential and managed to make the final once so to me she’s due an older celeb rather than a ringer.

Amy’s also made the final last series and this year managed to get JJ way further than he should have so she could get an older celeb as well tbh.

Obviously this year Nadiya didn’t get a celeb and the previous two years was out 2nd I think.She deserves a ‘good’ celeb more than anyone imo.

If Nadiya comes back, hopefully she can get someone she can have a decent run with, but more importantly, someone who can get her out of her shell a bit more, I've barely heard her speak and know virtually nothing about her compared to the other pros.

Dev was Dianne's only good partner. Amy's had decent ones so would be fine with her getting a duffer but I can't really say that any female pro other than Janette is due an oldie when I look at the celebs she's had.

I really hope Nadiya gets a good partner next year!
Isn’t she pretty tall though? I feel like this has held her back from getting a good partner, as Amy and Dianne would be able to partner the shorter men that Nadiya would tower over, same with Luba.

Nadiya is tall but there have to be some male celebs around 6'0 who are decent? A retired footballer like David James was never going to be good regardless of his height.

They could still give her a medium height partner I suppose. I watched the Swedish version during lockdown (out of sheer boredom) and they gave a 5'7 pro (who reminded me of Nadiya in some ways) to a 5'7 celeb (he represented Sweden in Eurovision one year) and they won so hardly impossible for the same to happen with Nadiya. I don't even think Lee Ryan was the tallest guy in 2018 and she still got him.
