Didn't really want to comment on the vaccine but all I am going to say it's entirely up to the pros and celebs if they want to have the jab or not and it should not be forced not should it be declared/announced/made into a witchhunt who has or hasn't had the vaccine.
I am looking forward to watching SCD that's all.
I am also looking forward to Judy and Tom being voted out, my least fave. I love Nikita's floppy hair and I can't wait to see the celebs and their personal styles transformed by the scd stylists.

Finally, a sensible post! We know that you can still get Covid/test positive even if you've been fully vaccinated, so the only people they're putting at risk is themselves. Not to mention that some of the black or Asian pros/celebs may feel uncomfortable having the vaccine given historical events (whether this is justified or not is up for debate but it can't be ignored given the much lower vaccination rates for these groups generally).

Walking on Sunshine, Greg makes Pierce Brosnan seem Grammy worthy.

It's such an awful film, but I can't help but watch it every so often. And then get offended on behalf of Leona Lewis. Best singer in the film and barely gets to sing and doesn't have any big solos or anything.

🤣 I just wanted something really cheesy, easy to watch/listen to. You can tell they’ve tried to go the same way as Mamma Mia but failed miserably! Really random movie for Leona Lewis to be in
 
Will superstar swimmer Adam Peaty add the Glitterball trophy to his mantelpiece of Olympic gold medals?
He certainly looks the part, but does he have the moves.

It's definitely one of those so bad it's good cheesy films. And it has a gorgeous Italian man in it, so bonus.
 
The American version started last night, was up until 3am to watch it. The standards are so high - almost half of the cast were ringers. Only one contestant sucked (and he really was terrible, lowest score in 12 years).

It will be interesting to do a side by side comparison between the two shows this year as they move away from the COVID era.

If it's all about personal choice then is it fair to force a celeb to dance with an unvaccinated pro? surely they should have some say? (Given that PHE data says that two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine cut a person's chances of being infected by 65 to 90 percent). If I were a celeb I'd want to know, and possibly demand a different partner.
 
People saying its up to individuals if they get vaxxed. My local hospital has a covud icu ward which is nearly all unvaccinated People, to staff that ward they are taking staff from other depts and non covid icu. I've had an operation postponed until at least Nov because of it and if anyone has an accident etc and needs icu they may be in danger because of bed shortages. This is a direct result of people refusing vaccination. By all means refuse the vaccination, but that should also waive rights to nhs care if you then get covid and need treatment. I think it's appalling these dancers aren't vaccinated.

What's your fave scd theme night or do you hate them?

I do like movie week usually. Blackpool is hit or miss - sometimes it’s overhyped and then the dances are a bit meh and it feels like a waste of time when there’s no 39s and 40s. Always thought Halloween was overrated in real life so not that arsed about ‘spooky’ routines or costumes but my mum looks forward to it😂.

Which channel is DWTS on? I used to tune in to it all the time when it used to be on Watch channel.

Battle to save Strictly as unjabbed dancers send bosses into meltdown

THE BBC was fighting to save Strictly last night as the row over unjabbed dancers sent bosses into meltdown. The furious celeb partner of one of the three dancers refusing to have a Covid vac…

The Sun narrowing it down with every new article. This time one name has a celebrity partner so we know this particular person isn't a show dancer. They also say household name but it depends how much they are stretching that term because who's an household name to some wouldn't be to others.
