Challenge! what iconic themes would you go for?
Don't ask me for my answers I've only thought of this question - will think about whilst roasting the spuds!
ooh great question!
We loved singing along to soap themes in our house when we were kids so I suggest
Emmerdale ( our lyrics to that are … wait for it🤣 🎶Emmerdale farmmmmm , Emmerdale Emmerdale Emmerdale farmmmm🎶 and repeat🤣)
and
Coronation Street ( lyrics…. 🎶Grief, woe and miseryyyt Grief , woe and miseryyy🎶) 🤣
 
And - genuine question - is there going to be a hostess trolley and some spanking with a Woman’s Weekly? Strictly loves a literal interpretation, and I can’t see what other ‘story’ they can force onto this. The lyrics are so specific. 🫤
I watched in on YouTube earlier, it’s about 5 mins long and as previously said, gets faster and faster towards the climax. I’m expecting they use the pace of the first bit (it would kill any of the celebs trying to keep up otherwise!) and are somewhat selective with but if the lyrics they choose but I’ll be very unhappy if they do it instrumental, had forgotten how hilariously batshit it is. Loved Victoria Wood
 
I want to know who will play the Theremine🤣 They will surely have to have that iconic sound on the night.. can Dave Arch conduct a theremine🤣 some poor sod is at home cursing the producers while trying to learn how to play it🤪

Maybe Bill Bailey will pop back for a guest appearance - he’s a virtuoso on a theremine!

Get Bill Bailey back for a cameo. :D

ooops, snap! 😂
 
I know it was discussed on the results show, I know the BBC have released the song list, and I know I’ve already said this at least three times - BUT I STILL DON’T BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING!!!

Has anyone ever danced to ‘Handbags and Gladrags’? I feel sure someone has (foxtrot, maybe), but I’m drawing a blank.

A shame Matt couldn't be there in person, though Zoom saves the day again!

He and Nadiya seemed closer to other 50 miles apart than Gio managed sitting right next to poor Ritchie last week.

He might have waffled a bit, and been rather miserably out of his depth at certain points, but he was very sweet and complimentary to Nadiya, and vice versa, bless.
 
I'd do some kind of ballroom to the theme to Keeping Up Appearances dressed as Hyacinth Bucket :LOL:

Anytime Hyacinth Bucket is mentioned, I'm reminded of one of the best memes ever 😆
