Strictly Come Dancing 2022 #18 Shirley, go home!

[calmyourritas]

Keep dancing!

Recap - tonight’s show was a fever dream and I’m not sure how I feel

 

[Spanor511]

Just for the new thread. Kym really can’t be arsed and it shows.

 

[Lostcat]

Absolutely effing UNHINGED evening, and I think that in light of the utter madness and dreadful music all couples should be given a bye to next week and we can pretend this never happened.

BBC Theme Week never happened.
BBC Theme Week never happened.
BBC Theme Week never happened.

(If we all say that enough, it might come true!)

I did not enjoy that very much. Voting for Fleur and Vito - worried they might fall into the DO again with an early slot and Vito's hotness criminally disguised. Would love to see James v Jayde DO but somehow doubt it..

 

[Boring Monday]

Well, that was a thing that happened.
still not quite over Vito And his amazing dancing wig or Geoffrey from Rainbow subbing in and dancing with Karen.

Molly and Carlos should have been given the Tracy Beaker theme instead. It ticks off the children's programming box, but is actually still relevant to young people today (the 10-year-olds I teach have seen it and I watched it when I was their age!) and is more of a proper song rather than... what they ended up with.

Excellent thread title

 

[HairyWeeTerrier]

I wanted to use one word for tonight, but am being forced to use more words. Can say it now. Shite.

 

[Sprezza]

What a load of self indulgent tosh

 

[Gym&Tonic]

It will go down as a low point in Strictly history. Whoever thought that one up needs sacking asap.

 

[kachoochoo]

literally don't know what people have against jayde. she's funny, she's a better dancer than we all thought she would be, she sang tonight. she's cool

 

[glasgow27]

I so wish the film I want to see was out yesterday rather than next Friday so I could have skipped that sh*tfest tonight and went to the cinema.

She's definitely a worse dancer than I thought she would be

I thought she’d be a lot better than she is - she barely moves!

 

[petitspois]

Tonight was odd. Some songs were better than expected (eastenders and casualty) but that intro was shocking. Too slow a start and the instrumental was appalling.

 

[ButtonDownTheHutches]

I don’t have much of an opinion on Kym one way or the other, but I threw her a protest vote as I’m speechless that she was scored lower than Jayde

 

[BubbleDuck]

Can’t remember who said Jayde was being kept in because she was gay towards the end of the last thread, but she’s straight , not that it should matter what anyones sexual preference is on an entertainment show .
.Personally I think she’s being kept in partly because of entertainment value but also because she so polarising - you either seem to like her or despise her . Tony is getting marked low because he’s so popular with the public and it keeps him in as people vote for him as the underdog .

I’d rather watch Tony and Jayde dancing badly but being entertaining than Will or Kym dancing well but having a mard on . It would be boring if we all had the same opinions and/or there was a clear winner from week 2

Unbelievable

Which is a shame, because there was nothing wrong with the actual premise … it was the execution that stuffed it up.

I think a big part of the problem is that I keep expecting her to, you know... dance.
