Strictly Come Dancing 2023 #11

I honestly wouldn't have taken any notice of Bobby's shorts. I just thought they were... well... shorts

Yeah me too! I was like whats the problem?? But I guess some people will try to make any dig at him for whatever reason; I don't see what the poor lad has done but to each their own. I mean there is a literal TERF in the lineup and someone who had to have a police caution over her antics in the car but whatever

In other news; I hope Amy kicks butt at this next round of chemo treatment!

It definitely is a thing with dancers. My daughter is a professional dancer and they have to do costume changes in the wings and just strip off in front of each other. I think the difference is there’s no reason for him to be dancing around in his underwear. Also she’s on her own with him not with other cast members.

You have a very valid point. I guess Bobby is still very much a kid on the cusp of adulthood having been raised without a mother’s influence, didn’t he just turn 20? Hopefully he will begin to learn what is appropriate and inappropriate behavior as he matures.

He’s also done runway shows and modelling. I imagine that having to completely change outfits in 30 seconds and having numerous people see you at best partially clothed as they are stuffing you into the next creation gives a certain nonchalance about these things.

Who’s had a police caution? I missed that!

 

[diamondthunder]

I never would have noticed if someone else hadn't pointed it out, so eh. I find him irritating, but I don't necessarily think it's all that inappropriate - plenty of gym wear looks a lot like underwear.

But on the other hand it does seem a little weird for a TV actor to decide to do in a rehearsal room. A dancer or theatre actor backstage makes sense, this is a bit confusing lol

 

[Fillyjonk]

I don't think Angela S actually got a caution from the police. The articles just said she was reported to the police. A police caution is a different thing to talking to the police and making a statement.

She was an absolute reckless div for doing it but as far as I know, she got nothing more than a telling off.

 

[diamondthunder]

Oops, forgot he was a model. Yeah, I can see where the attitude comes from then. Meh. I doubt Dianne has a problem, so long as the pants manage to stay up this time!
---
She wasn't driving though was she? I didn't see the video, but I got the impression she was only endangering herself?

Anyway, in car related stupidity news, I'm pleased Janette seems to have finally figured out what a seatbelt is for in the last few weeks. Hoping it catches on with the rest of the non-seatbelt wearers.

 

[Boring Monday]

When you think what some of the female pro dancers used to have as show day costumes (Aliona, Matt, samba) it’s a wonder the male celebs put their hands anywhere

Well I guess he's dancing now so I think it makes sense.

There you go:

Strictly's Angela Scanlon reported to the police over car stunt

Strictly star Angela Scanlon has been reported to the police after she was filmed dancing out of a window of a moving car.

www.dailymail.co.uk

She was reported to the police and came out with a statement; the police also came out with a statement to say how dangerous what she did was.

 

[Bol85]

Bit OTT the reaction to leaning out a car.. I’ve seen far more reckless stuff. I thought she was driving and being an idiot but she’s just a passenger. If she’d have fallen out, be her own stupid fault really. I mean sure, a telling off is appropriate & she got one. Next story..

 

[soccergirl]

Oh gosh, next people will be saying that Vito making Ellie push the broom round the training room floor to warm up is modern slavery!

Layton should have had this number and slayed. As it is, it will be twiddly twee ropy disco vaguely masquerading as a samba with him dressed as Romeo and Dianne as Juliet.

I'm quoting myself here because I just realised it's also another missed opportunity for Nikita to be a young Leo. He would make a perfect Romeo.

Well, I did think he was being a bit callous (heh) about her blisters!

I'm such a wimp, I'd pack it all in at the first one!

I'm trying not to think of Bobby doing the Samba bounce in those tiny shorts

I was watching that again recently and thinking where is the rest of her outfit?

I dread to think what the wardrobe department are going to do for the knight costume for Bobby (unless they're going to go with the Hawaiian shirt?) Given the padded fursuit monstrosities several others have been forced to dance in, it seems only fair to make him Samba in an actual suit of armour, right?

Neil Jones takes a swipe at his Strictly co-stars

Neil Jones has taken a swipe at his Strictly co-stars by claiming he and snubbed Nadiya Bychkova don't need celebrity partners because they're world champions - unlike the majority of the pros.

[Eugenie]

I do ln

I haven't seen any hate against Angela on here. I think she's alright, although I can imagine the "I'm so wacky, me" antics start to grate after a while. That being said, I did laugh at this one

I do know what you mean! You don’t have to be crazy to work here…

At the moment she’s my fave female. I really want to like Zara but I can’t forgive her for being a young Tory Brexiteer! I know that’s narrow and pathetic of me! She also has vocal fry (there - I said it).
Even her politics aren’t as dodgy as Annabelle’s though. I wish I didn’t know these things! I’d still find Annabel a bit false but not Zara. Plus I love Graz. Zara is STUNNING.

If that mindset makes Neil sleep at night, then good for him. But being a world champion doesn’t always equal a good SCD pro.

I didn't know she was?!?!?!

Well thats off-putting especially after the most recent Tory press conference

To be fair to Neil <deep breath> the story doesn’t match the headline.
