Just watching ITT and Gorka's little confused face when Helen mentioned "pigeon fanciers" 😂😂

Wonder if we're getting a Pro Challenge this year?? Has it usually started my now...?

'excuse me? Why are you talking about people wanting to have sex with pigeons like it is completely normal. Is this another one of those weird British things'

I think some of pros were recording their challenge stuff last week or the week before

"CONGRATULATIONS, Will, your Couples Choice is Morris Dancing! Go and see Vicky Gill for your bells and handkerchiefs and big stick!

I would love to see this 😂Maybe they should do a folk or country dacing group dance.

The two vibes I'd want to see: genteel and coordinated like they're performing in a Jane Austen period drama; absolute chaos like they're doing the gay gordons at a wedding after a couple of drinks

Because it hosts many of the big dancing competitions and many of the dancers have a lot of memories related to it and it's the celebs chance to dance in a proper ballroom, bouncy floor and all. The Nationals usually take place during Strictly weekend too so the pros will sometimes nip away to watch and meet up with dance friends.

I don't mean with strictly, I get that. I mean why Blackpool in the first place? Like how did it become somewhere that hosted competitions?

I'm still a little mournful that Hamzas' Couples Choice wasn't Scottish-themed. Him, Jowita and a dozen enthusiastic extra dancers in kilts doing Highland Dances over the crossed swords would have been really something.

Hamza would have looked absolutely delightful, both kilt and hair merrily swirling around him:

And the thought of Jowita merrily twirling the swords around afterwards really cheers me up. Just imagine all five foot nothing of Jowita with a broadsword, especially if Craig refused her a "10". There would be no survivors.

KILTS :love:
 
Here’s a treat apparently Anton and Gio are doing a duet for children in need on Friday - a singing duet not a dance one. The thought of it makes me cringe a bit. Those bits in their tour him and me - were a bit cringe. Best parts of their show were the bits they weren’t in - they had some amazing dancers, particularly the one that some people think Gio had a fling with. Shame really as that probably means that he won’t have her for his tour and she has a lot of stage presence in my opinion - really stood out.

I thought Tyler couldn’t get any more cocky. Then I saw the thing where you hear what they say to each other on the dance floor and he literally tells Dianne ‘you did it’ at the end

Not a Tyler fan, but I think this quote is probably more of a reflection of Dianne and how she must be acting in the lead-up to the performance. It's not the contestant's job to big up the pro, and yet Dianne always seems to seek more approval than her partner.
 
Hope this is ok but so far for the Blackpool Dances we have the following:
Ellie & Johannes - Ballroom so either American Smooth, Foxtrot or Waltz
Fleur & Jowita - Couples Choice - Destiny's Child Mash Up including Jumpin Jumpin
Hamza & Jowita: American Smooth - New York, New York
Helen & Gorka - Quickstep - Valerie
Will & Nancy - Samba


So predicting
Molly will get Charleston, Viennese Waltz or Jive
Tyler will get Salsa or Argentine Tango.

Didn't Molly already do a Charleston? I could see her getting a Jive for Blackpool. Tyler probably needs to hope for a Salsa, I don't think he's as comfortable dancing in hold and I really don't think AT will suit him.

c

She did the Italian version the same year he did and got to the final so maybe not a real friendship so much as a Strictly friendship.

How on earth? Her step dad who she she has been vocal about being a domestic abuser (but not bad enough that she didnt want to keep.usimg his name to stay relevant) played in italy about 25 years ago.
Is that how tenuous the link csn be?

Aw. It Takes Two was sweet. I think Tony was baffled and a wee bit battered by the whole Strictly experience at times, but he seems to have had a nice time, and was obviously pleased to have got as far as he did.

Had to laugh at him telling Rylan the best bit each week was sitting on the It Takes Two sofa having a natter though: I think Tony will most definitely be taking it easy for the next few weeks. Can just imagine him lying on sofa, calling all his old Premiership buddies up, telling them "Yeah, do Strictly, great fun, maybe try and aim for some a couple slower ballroom dances though...and if you get that mad Katya one, tell her you're only doing one death-defying lift a week, and get it in your contract that you're not stripping down to yer sparkly boxers."

Just about to catch up on ITT. BIB - I so enjoy Tony and Rylan, they said one evening that they have a bit of a bromance going on 😁

I used to enjoy the fact that some of Tony's former teammates came along to support him, and they arrived at one of his training sessions one day and were full of praise for him. I'm not sure if any of them will be rushing to don the sparkles but who knows!

Thinking back to the first night of the show and Tony looked so uncomfortable - they showed the clip on Gogglebox afterwards and they were all laughing their heads off.

Who would have thought that he would get so far and provide so much genuine entertainment along the way.
Hard work and sheer determination stood to him for sure.

If this is the case then I really feel sorry for her. She seems to me to be quite an anxious person but tries to put on a hyper personality to try to hide it. Its come up a few times too that she struggles quite a bit with self confidence.

This is one of the songs that will be included:
An excellent choice!
I don't know if you caught them on ITT tonight.

Will there be a bum section to Bootylicious? 😅

I think our best hope is for Mia Marquez to go rogue, ask to meet Weeel Melorrr and then nobble him

Will Mellor needed to attend an emergency dentist on Sunday after an incident said to have occurred on the tea cups... 😅.
