Yeah, I'd have to think Bobby would be wanted back at Eastenders by then. It's one thing to give him time off to do the show but if he does the tour as well he'll have had 7 months off? Have any of the Eastenders cast that have been on the show done the tour while their character is still in EE?

I'm surprised he was given time off to do Strictly. Poor old James Bye had to do both. As did others.
His part is fairly minor, I suppose. Easy to write him out from time to time.

Love that analogy. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

I can never make him out at all, think he puts on this 'cannot understand English' as a bit of an act along with his whole performance in front of the camera. Just let his dancing do the talking, less chatter and shock value stunts.

I definitely think he's hamming it up this year. There's been a couple of occasions we're it's definitely been over-egged.

Vito has only publicly dated women, but who knows, he may be bi (yes, bisexuals exist! and from what we can gather, dancers are at it all the time with each other anyway..). TBH I find it hard to believe Nikita is straight too, but there ya go..

I think he might be finding it a bit hard to believe at the moment, too 😄

🤣Yes poor Erin. It is also used for any pro that has checked out of the Strictly process during the series, due to bad celebs, not getting on with their partner, over it. i.e”they have booked their ticket to Erin island” probably Gio and Karen this series.

And then her last dance on Strictly with Richard Arnold was themed by being set on actual island with TheLovelyShem in budgie smugglers.

it was the perfect moment.

It's from Monkseal's blog, it's Erin's happy place to cope with her being given increasingly awful partners. I'm still not over her purple outfit with Ricky from Eastenders.

I think it was the Charleston outfit with Peter Shiton that really broke her.
(Although she was never the same after AustinWuzRobbed).

I always have to watch this on catch up and sometimes I don’t get to watch it all until Friday. But I do read along while I watch, so thank you for all being hilarious and insightful.

Whilst it’s quiet I would like to confess some weird and unpopular things… (and also just need to acknowledge that I am the weird since I loved Dan Walker and I don’t know why)

1) Anton’s inner bicep in the series opener did a weird thing to me that I can’t quite get over. Literally nothing has lived up to the same eroticism since.
2) I love Bobby and I find him mesmerising
3) strictly has turned me into some kind of bicep pervert (as per above) no one’s arms are safe
4) Zara’s dancing makes me think of Baby in Dirty Dancing when she’s kind of going the wrong way but trying her best all the time.
5) (I may get banned for this) I find Krishnan an absolute snooze fest. 🤐

Yet I'm the one being judged for saying Neil is hot. 😆😆

My boyfriend and I are both bi yet we feel puzzled by Nikita, but I must say it is lovely to see people enjoying the same gender partnerships regardless of their own orientation. Nikita is a different generation to Gio. Bet he’s fuming now.

Gio's hardly some stuffy old boomer, though, is he? He's what, late 30s?

And he's bound to have met absolutely loads of gay dancers in his career, and probably even danced with some of them.

I didn't watch last year, but Richie Edwards is really very annoying, so I wouldn't immediately assume he was unhappy with a same sex partnership just because he seemed irritated with him.

Unless, of course, there were other things that I didn't see.
