I'm not really bothered by whoever they select for guest judge. It's Musicals Week so the scoring would have been generous anyway, not to mention people have been moaning about scoring with the regular judging panel.

Cynthia was probably picked because she's freshly in the news.

And she’s here at the moment - just did the Remembrance concert - rather than in America where she lives. It’s a pretty good short notice get.

Maybe! but as she was at the dinner presumably he could have checked then? I think he knows how to play the game, with plausible deniability

If I’m out in company, especially for someone’s birthday, I don’t ask then and there if I can post photos, I don’t even post them at the time. It’s obvious this guy wants to stay out of the limelight and if he’s smiling in Giovanni’s company then unless he’s a good actor too, he’s probably happy with Rose and Gio’s relationship.

To be fair though, he maybe goes post things at the time but I think people are reading too much into it imo.

I sound like a Gio Stan but I’m really not. I didn’t have an opinion on him at all before now and this year I’m just marginally impressed with this different side of him. If he is playing a game then it’s probably no different than any other year he’s been on, except this time Rose is confident and secure in her relationship, doesn’t seem to have any interest in him other than as a friend and above all she looks like she’s enjoying her time on the show. I think she would be a very, very worthy winner on the strength of her alone

I'd forgotten Michelle. Poor Giovanni! I can picture Michelle thinking 'don't you know who I am? I am THE celebrity, you want me as your friend, you need me as your friend, you will have me as your friend'

I can’t really say Poor Giovanni on that one - if he didn’t want her to be friends post SCD (maybe he did, maybe not), he had every right to say no or just ghost/unfollow. He’s a 31 year old adult.

I know there were previous posts but Sara’s attachment to Aljaz is a little scary.

Why? She's obviously formed a bond with him as have her husband and family as they all spent a lot of time together as he was staying up near hers. She's bound to miss him as are her kids and family and don't forget they actually get together before Strictly starts, so they'll have been friends for a good few months now. I don't see anything wrong with her missing him or their friendship and I certainly don't thinks she fancies him like some have said but also she may just be playing up to her followers as they have all been very invested in her Strictly journey and she has storied most days about it.

Interesting choice by Gio to wait and post that pic AFTER lots of coverage/speculation about the dinner (and publicity for his pal's restaurant!)

Loads of comments on the Daily Mail article on it said that her boyfriend was sat next to her, so now he's been rumbled he's decided to come clean!
 
Rose’s stories quite funny. She’s done some pictures of Giovanni and was explaining them but missed out a couple. Who is Mark? She drew with heart eyes for Mark so that’s question 1 and also outed that he smokes. Poor Rose having to get up close to an ashtray. (I’m a hypocrite ex smoker and the smell now makes my lungs seize up)

Someone said on another thread Bonnie Langford would have been a good choice.

I'm sure I'm very much alone, but I'd love for Bonnie to do the actual show. Personally, I enjoy the odd ringer and I think people would be absolutely fine with her having loads of dance experience. She reminds me of my aunty, so I've always had a soft spot for her.

That might be another idea for the BBC’s 100-year show - get a lot of people who are legitimate ringers and have a “best of the best”.

Louis Spence would be great for this!!

How great would a 'Best Of' Strictly be... loads of past winners and some not-quite-winners (Danny Mac obv) come back to compete to become the ultimate Strictly champion?!

My dream picks would be... Alexandra Burke, Danny Mac, Faye Tozer, Harry Judd, Debbie McGee, Kelvin Fletcher, Jay McGuinness and Ashley Roberts. Not sure how you'd split the pros up though, and some like Harry, Jay and Ashley would have to get new pros, and Faye/Debbie and Danny/Kelvin would have to fight over Oti and Gio...

And I don’t think Alexandra would want Gorka again 😳

I definitely think a Champion of Champions should happen
