Just had a look back - 31st of March last year. Aljaz announcement was 28th March and Oti's was 22nd Feb

If no one's leaving, hopefully they might announce it fairly soon
Yeah it was definitely later than normal then, I feel like if someone was going we would probably have heard by now? I like this current group tbh so hopefully no one goes. I wonder if Aljaz was undecided last year and that’s why it came so late?
 
If nobody is leaving of their own accord, they need to axe a few. It really is baffling that they've kept so many of the pre COVID era pros who haven't done much exciting stuff on the show. But I guess they have the right dancers for their 'happy family' cult hence the lack of changes year after year. I think we'll be on the sixth consecutive year that I'm bored with the same old. At least most of the recent newbies have something about them.

Surely we should be hearing about the pros soon? Usually by now any departures have started to be announced, although last year the new pros weren’t announced until a lot later than usual. I’m pretty sure it’s usually March but I definitely remember it being later last year, I originally had a feeling Karen and maybe Gio would go but I don’t think we will see any departures this year.
Karen was on bbc with gorka this week, and both said they want to return
 
I imagine this wouldn't go down well here though probably too soon for her to follow Tom. Giovanna Fletcher wants to do it with Johannes as her partner. Who's bringing the spare trousers??


Oh christ, she might be even more irritating than her husband 😆

If she does do it, I doubt the pairing elves would be able to resist the prospect of endless Giovanna/Giovanni puns and VTs

She’s so dull, just blah and known for being a ‘nice lady’. I think she has a stage school background, although so did Tom and he was shite and had the emotional acting range of a spoon so 🤷🏼‍♀️
 
I've been thinking watching Dancing with Stars in Ireland/America and Dancing on Ice doing doing dedication weeks wouldn't it be worth Strictly doing it as well so every week we don't get a sob story for example from the likes of Will mardy arse who seemed to dedicate each dance to his wife and kids each week. If the producers were to introduce dedication week they could let all contestants know at the start of the series they can only do dedications this specific week only??

I wouldn't be opposed to that at all. The problem is Couples Choice (do they have that on DWTS?) - they'd have to do away with that, which probably isn't happening (again, I wouldn't be opposed..)

It is really quiet, pro-wise at the moment. Jowita is in Poland, Vito has disappeared, I haven't seen much of the others (bar Gorka and Karen). I guess they are having a rest before the pro tour starts, most of them..

Yeah it means you would have to get rid of Couples Choice but I think it would be worth it.
 
Hi all, Mother Lilu and I are seeing Gio’s tour soon. I assume it finishes around 10ish but she’s worried we won’t be able to get a taxi back🙈 Can anyone confirm timings please?☺️
