I hate pranks, especially ones where someone might get hurt (mustard is an emetic, you will throw up like you have never thrown up before if you eat a teaspoon of mustard in water, it can be used in an emergency for cases where people have eaten something poisonous and no hospital is close to hand)

I bet Neil filmed himself doing it too, and if Kai or Joe Sugg dared to complain he would go all huffy and keep saying "It was just a joke, mate, just a joke, can't you take a joke?", in that tiresome way people do when they know they've gone too far, but won't back down.

Though Amy looked well up for murdering him over the car prank, I have never felt such kinship and sympathy with her as that moment she leaned in and glared at the camera with cold blue steel in her eyes. I'll bet he only tried to prank her once, and never again.

Just caught up, how disgusting is he! I even hate the word prank. 😡 I would say he didn't 'prank' Nancy more than once either. I hope he noticed that none of them thought he was one bit funny. 🤢

Apart from that, loved all three interviews.

Well done to Ellie and Johannes for overcoming the glitch with their music. Especially Ellie, as the non pro! Hard to imagine how off putting it must be. As she said, she was looking at Johannes and all the others thinking she must be the one who was wrong. Poor Ellie!

Rylan has a great way with whoever is eliminated of reminding them of really positive things, even before showing the best bits. I thought Tyler was very genuine in everything he said. And he and Dianne obviously did get on really well.

Rylan was funny about asking Fleur's mum if she was okay 😁. I could look at and listen to Vito forever 😁. They have a great partnership.

Yes, totally see that. Weird coincidence then that Max was in Glee aswell ot maybe that was one of the reasons he was cast (not sure it was for his singing or acting 😁).

I don't think it was for his acting, his American accent was terrible. He's said before as well that they used a body double for his dancing, God knows how he got that job.

I wonder if he ever pranked Nina? She seemed really tired of him right from the off.

I doubt it, everyone who said they were pranked by Neil was 8+ years younger than him. Could be a byproduct of being the oldest pro but it seems like he pranks younger folk who are easy targets as they are less likely to stand up to his BS (I've seen that type of thing before). I can imagine that if he pranked someone his age or older, he'd get put in his place.

Though from the body language, I reckon Amy had a go at him for the car stuff and perfectly right to do so if she did.
 
I think sometimes people who grow up being very focused on one thing from a very young age ( 3 in Neil’s case) to the exclusion of everything else , whose friends and later, relationships are also from people in that world , don’t have the normal maturation in their personality that comes from having a range of interests, meeting people with different lives that most people get . Especially in the dance world where it’s still relatively normal to move to a different area or even country to your family in order to train and compete, and to marry your dancer partner all at a young age . Which is why we end up with people like Neil and Diane who seem stuck in their early teens .
 
I felt so sad for Tyler!

Neil needs to grow up - pranks (especially the ones he did) aren't funny. What's enjoyable about upsetting someone? Seeing someone cross or stressed is not something laughable.

Very impressed with Ellie keeping up with the dance although the technical malfunction. Can't see her surviving a jive, her Latins and hips are poor.

I can see Fleur nailing the rumba, just needs to extend those arms dahling

I wonder when the results show will be if the main show is a Friday? Surely they won’t wait until Sunday?

Unless they slot it in before the match on the Saturday night, I think they’ll have to? And the SF is on a Sunday so I assume they’ll show those results on the same night 🤷🏻‍♀️

Agree. I think Rebecca Adlington and lot of athletes/ footballers have the same issue

No, the final is still set for Saturday 17th according to articles.

Strictly on a Sunday tho - I can't! Will they do the results show on the same day? No spoiler?!

I managed to confuse myself again, I should have said it’s the World Cup final on Sunday 18th!

That’s a good point, no spoiler on a Sunday show! I think they’d have to do it all on the Sunday unless they bumped the results onto a Monday. That would be weird!
