SCD wasn't like that until Claudia took over. The past decade, it has gradually felt more and more overly panto and like a kids show. The Clauditorium area wasn't nearly as crazy when Tess was doing the interviews.

The show is generally decent but I am getting a bit fed up of the fluff bits that feel overly childish. If I never saw another judges entrance again or heard "THE JUDGEZZZ" or "Our Strictleee Starrs" again, it'll be too soon.

Not suggesting that they should bring in another Bruce type, as he was old-fashioned.

This is why I record it and watch it on delay and skip everything but the dances and the judges comments lol.

I just find Bobby a bit annoying- he’s a nice enough lad and a good dancer but I haven’t really warmed to him and Dianne as a partnership much 🤷🏼‍♀️.

I get why others like him a lot though, and he seems relatively harmless, just a bit silly.

I thought he would be a good booking when he was rumoured, and he was quite charming on the launch show, but I'm finding him a wee bit boring now. Scratch the surface and there's not actually that much there really. He's fine, but his whole Strictly journey just feels quite predictable now

I thought I would like him in Strictly - and while I don't dislike him or Dianne - their performance is my cue for a toilet break on Saturday nights. I don't want him to win.
 
I think i said before: I wonder if the show is trying to give him a winners narrative if they suspect he’s miles ahead with the public (I’ve no idea if that’s the case obv). So not much criticism, opening and closing the show, building up presumably to a big CC moment. He’s still the bookies’ fave at 2/1.

the problem really is that Bobby just seems a bit spaced out a lot of the time, and hasn’t really given us a big moment yet. I felt the show tried to make both his samba and VW more than they were (just fine).

I won't lie, I have sometimes wondered if he's a little bit high. Obviously, I don't think he'd go on tv like that but it has crossed my mind once or twice.

I agree. They’d need to bring back some ex-pros in order for a dance to be effective and emotive imo. I think it would be a bit strange to have the newer pros who never worked with Len on the show pay tribute to him.

Sorry I’m miles behind so this has probably been said but yes to old pros from the years Len was there to coming back to dance too - and Darcey too! Maybe she could dance with Anton?

Share the Halloween dances you have loved?

Special mention to Tilly and Nikita's Cha Cha, she's not the best but I live the quirky characterisation and retro vibe of it.

I loved this one, but it always reminds me of that poster who joined here, told people who said this was a good Cha Cha that they were wrong, and then said 'bye, I'm not staying on this forum, the language is terrible'. And this was before the thirst for Nikita had really begun :LOL:

One that I really liked was Daisy Lowe's Paso, I love the song and the styling 💀💃
