I've said it before but why should we applaud and overweight man or woman dancing as being inclusive . She's large (her choice and she's happy with it) doesn't make it an aspiration nor in her case a disability.

Hamza is good mover and overweight and l don't see the panel or judges going on about his physique. I'm just interested in him dancing and not his size. He's not making it a story.

In real life i see plenty of people of all sizes and shapes and ages dance, moving to music because they want to.

True but Hamza also doesnt receive a barrage of abuse for daring to show himself enjoying dancing on Saturday night TV

Aside from tattle I don't have social media so no idea what goes on in their twitter/insta feeds

Is jayde getting abuse because of her weight or because of her personality (neither warrants abuse)
I don't find her endearing on strictly but I like her on crazy delicious.

I don't know a lot of detail but I did see a post on Instagram where she said she'd got a lot of negative comments about her 'massive thighs' so I assume it's more weight related

I'm sorry if this comes across as mean but I'm getting really fed up of Jadye's whole 'Anyone can dance' schtick. The Friday panel going on about it as well! It's just all she ever talks about. I mean I have seen videos of larger professional dancers, yes it's a thing!
Pretty sure Ellie doesn't go on at every opportunity how it's so inclusive for her to be on the show.

It’s also old news! Alison Hammond was there first and I’m sure there’s more I’ve forgotten about!

Yes to this ...it's like she's made it her 'sob' story and we are all expected to make allowances for her. Whilst I also appreciate the sentiment that dancing should be inclusive, I also think she should be judged on merit and not because she's been 'brave' to dance in a sparkly body suit!

Lisa Riley did it in 2012 and was brilliant! I was hoping Jayde would be able to do something similar to show bigger people can dance but she's not quite doing it for me yet

Matt and James looking a bit dodgy here, but I love how confident Tony looks in hold now compared to a few weeks ago

Fleur looks fab! Molly looks great too. Agree with Matt and James think that could be our bottom too. Jayde not doing it for me either. Gorka looks amazing!!
Also is it weird that I’m starting to fancy Tony?!?

Jayde is getting absolute dogs abuse for her weight. Videos of her dancing are going viral on twitter with over 10k likes saying how disgusting it is and how someone of her size shouldn’t be allowed to be on tv. I understand that not everyone is going to like her which is totally fair, but to make comments like that is just awful 🤮 Looking through her twitter a lot of the tweets have been deleted, shock.

Definitely not weird you are starting to fancy Tony! He just has a certain something about him 😍 (and he knows how to wear a suit)

Lots of them looking really promising - can't wait to see Helen, Fleur and Hamza especially
 
Good god the Rio worshippers really need to get out more

Kai is out of the show and Nadiya will be out this weekend which leaves them both free during the week,they only have to show up Friday and Saturday,I suspect they got him once they seem their show partners and knew they'd be out quick and have time

I don't think Nadiya will be out this weekend! And eliminated dancers also rehearse for the Sunday pro dances. Anyway, it's their choice, obviously, but beyond the cruelty of those dogs, I really hate influencer culture and the fact it's now extended to pets!

ETA: I see Nadiya has said her mum has gone back to Ukraine to try to get her grandmother out. Good luck to them. 😢
