Interesting to see who will be next out. Zara? Jody? Adam?

I'd like Zara to have another week and not be in a the DO. I'd prefer Adam and Jody in the DO with Jody going - just because he seems the least invested and for the sake of his own health.

Speaking of Layton earlier, I wonder if he'll be a shoo-in for the final like everyone assumed he would be when announced?

For example, if he was against Amanda in a QF or SF dance-off, that could go either way. Last Saturday, her rhumba would have probably beat his VW 🤔

There was one article say he didn't get the dance he wanted to do and one interview he did for Hello saying that he was at a friend's wedding which Nigella and Richard Madden also attended (nice little name drop there, Joe).

But he also allegedly had a bit of a thing with Craig, so maybe that?

I forgot all about this; I mean I only dipped in and out of his season because I felt it was a dud because either Alexandra and Debbie should have won.

I’m sure it’s part of the contract that if you win the show you have to come back to the returning season so I wonder how he wriggled out of that one.

I don't know about Debbie as her Latin was a bit ropey but Alexandra absolutely should have won for ability. IMO it was Katya who won that series - she was at her choreography peak and that was what people were voting for rather than Joe himself.

I think that contract of appearing in the launch show probably has loopholes ie important events celebs already agreed to go to. I guess if he really did have to go to a wedding that Nigella and Richard Madden were attending, did you know?

Need photographic proof of him at the wedding, having a drink and a chat, ideally doing the tango with Nigella and Richard (Hell I'd choose that over a Strictly launch too!)

otherwise I'm sticking with possible urban myth of he was being a dance diva Hummmpph!😂

Alexandra was unfairly treated tbh.

Joe was fortunate with the choreography and the fact he was against two female ringers who weren’t going to win and Gemma who didn’t have enough to win.

I guess they can’t sue him because it would be too overboard but it’s very unprofessional on his end; it’s understandable if it’s an emergency but come on that wasn't. I would be miffed if I was Katya as well as it was denying her chance to have her returning winners dance.

So would I. I like her.
Well there's nobody I dislike although I find Bobby quite irritating. And Adam a tad shouty. I sometimes want to say 'shush' to him, when he is in the Clauditorium, especially.

Zara comes across really well - she was a little bit emotional about being through on the night that Les and Nikita were in the dance off. Aww. I also really like Graz, there's something so sweet about him.

Looks pretty genuine to me.

I haven't heard a single person say they don't like Ellie or criticise her dancing. This is pretty rare!

It is .. I don’t watch Coronation Street but by all accounts Ellie is the total opposite of the character she portrays in that show so it’s good to see the difference.
I do watch Eastenders where Bobbie’s character, Freddie, is exactly the same as the Bobbie we’re seeing on the show.
