Even if people do get together via Strictly, I don't think they would while it's actually running. They would just vibe off the sexual tension and excitement of it all.

I'm starting to hate couple's choice. It used to be a way of introducing something different but now it's either a floaty, bare-footed and overly emotional tribute to a dead family member or some sort of pseudo aerobics routine. I like Rhys but I thought I was watching a different routine to the judges.

I wish they'd dial back the reality-TV style emotional manipulation, just a tiny bit. I agree with you about Couple's Choice, and it's a shame because they really good have used the slot to showcase different dance styles. However, so many of the CC routines seem to blur together.

It's also tricky because I'm often not sure what the dance styles are supposed to look like. I wih they would tell the audience a bit about contemporary and street commercial so we know how to evaluate it a bit better.

I feel like someone’s probably said it before but there should be a couples choice week as quite often the dance they choose plays to the strengths of the celeb (just look at Rhys) and it would put that week at more of a level playing field then judging it the same time people are doing a notoriously hard dance e.g. rumba.
I feel like when the show started each week would only consist of them doing the same two or three dances making it easier to actually judge fairly.

It did but I can see how the audience said watching 6 waltzes and 6 cha chas got boring. I enjoyed it and seeing the differences and really learning what the dance should be like but others might not. Also it could highlight the differences between the couples even more.

Tbh couples choice seems to be quite vast in the styles couples can chose. When it started it was just theatre, contemporary and street commercial, but since last year it seems they’ve just let couples do whatever they like, pretty much. Therefore, if every couple got to do this one week all their routines would look quite different and so it wouldn’t be all the same like it was when they used to do a waltz or a cha cha for week one.

Amy definitely had him practicing this via zoom during their isolation period. Bet he had no rest.
I say she is a right control freak

I wondered if they (unfairly) had two weeks to get to know and practise this dance. If he knew he was missing a week. Presumably Amy knew what was coming up. I just hate how she flirts with everyone all innocently like, and totally exaggerates her Welsh accent- so fake
