I wonder if all the Strictly Pros get on as well as they come across on the show.
Dianne over the past couple of years has vlogged LOADS on her YouTube channel showing so much back stage of the tours, getting ready with the girls, tour bus footage etc
And for any Vito fans there's lots of content of him staying around her mansion doing cooking, going to car boot sales with her and a very drunk Karaoke night where he sings lady gaga brilliantly !!
 
Bobby & Dianne vs Nigel & Katya: A Tale Of Two Boob Honks

They really should have taken that out (Bobby and Dianne). It wasn't even sexy. The dirty dancing underarm brush is sexier or a face/ neck stroke. And the looking like they were necking at the end. Boke 🤢. It was probably a wise move for her to be in a jumpsuit.

Dianne looked tit in that dance too. And the vt of her demonstrating the moves in her Doc Martens clodhopping about, made her look worse.
 
Same. He was positive, had a great attitude, put the work in. That said, if it’s true that he’s having a tough time with his health then I’m glad he went out tonight so he can get a bit of respite.

You never know, Angela R might have salsa, samba or jive.

Are there at ballroom dances she hasn’t done yet? Ange R will def be given another slow number . Producers WILL get her to Blackpool
 
Adam looked exhausted last night, especially noticeable, while receiving the feedback.
I am glad for the sake of his heath that he is out. He gave it his all, and he and Luba seemed to get on great. He can go out with his head held high.
I lold when he said the infamous words.

You know, I think maybe Claudia was the one who first uttered that phrase, last year - when Will was apologising to all those he let down 🤣. As we all imagined tiny kids. Anyway as we know it then took on a life of its own. 🤣

Just catching up (shocker, can’t remember the last time I watched any Strictly live since having kids 😂). Even Lauren looked shocked that she & Krishnan were through to next week 🤣

Can’t say I cared who went this week out of those two but I’d have probably rather Angela R went to be honest..

V excited for a N&L AT 👀 although sometimes, when expectations are so high, it’s hard to actually have it met.. must manage expectations 😂 I chuckled at the comments a few pages back that you can’t look directly at Nikita & his girlfriend 😂 I think she might be hotter than him! They are an incredibly striking couple. It sounds like poor Nikita had a really tough week, props to him & Layton for rolling with a sob story, they didn’t even mention his knee at all..!

She looked like a rough old chav last night - the makeup and hair made her look so hard and much older than she is. The two ATs she's done have really shown up the gaps in her own training imo - her Latin is far, far weaker than her ballroom. If she was a celeb on the show I don't think she would win, if that makes sense?

The AT she did with Joe was one of the worst I have ever seen on the show, there was zero sexual chemistry considering what was going on behind the scenes .
 
There was one dance they did that absolutely confirmed in my mind they were together - I think it was one of the ballroom ones and he looked totally enamoured at the end! Their AT was dreadful but I sometimes I think when things are going on behind the scenes, it almost makes it more awkward! Can’t be too obvious, can’t be so sexy we give the game away. (although I think Joe was just a mediocre dancer!) I always felt John & Johannes held themselves back from their full potential and I remember thinking at the time they almost seemed too close & it was getting too personal. Clearly from John, it was 🙄 Poor Johannes really gets the emotional baggage doesn’t he!

Oof. A lot of unhappy campers online tonight saying it’s a joke Angela was kept in.

It was sad to see Adam go, I'd always thought he comes across a bit full of himself and that he'd take going out badly, but he was so gracious about it. His speech was nice and felt really genuine, especially when it came to Luba- I liked that they didn't do long grovelling speeches about each other but you could tell that they really got on.

I think this is an unpopular opinion on here but I wish Krishnan had been in the DO and gone instead. His dance was utterly shite and to my untrained eye, I thought it was ridiculous that he scored more than Angela S. I get that people like a jolly trier but he's past his sell by date now imo.

I think considering the bloke looked fit to absolutely drop, they might just have to let that one go.
 
Yeah I did wonder how much of this dance off was a mercy killing, so to speak, for Adam

Yes, I think the speculation about it being a graceful way for him to exit was probably spot on. He's been looking on the verge on tears since ITT last week, he was the same Saturday, and he was close to slurring when talking to Claudia. I don't think physically he had anything left in him at all.
 
I don’t know how I will cope this week knowing that AT is on the way 😩

I thought AT meant Adam Thomas at first, and thought "on his way where?!!"

My poor husband sat with me while I watched tonight's show and had to put up with me sharing titbits and rumours from here throughout it - when Adam said "daddy's ok!" I said "woooah, tattle are going to loose their tit!!" and he looked at me like I was insane 😂 Adam and Luba were very sweet and gracious, although the exit song made me chuckle as I wondered if he'd done the double and chosen the final song from his wedding as well as the first dance 🤣
 
Do we know what dance Angela R & Kai are doing next week?

So far they've had:
Cha cha cha
Foxtrot
Quickstep
Rumba
Argentine tango
Charleston
Waltz

I think they'll do an American smooth at Blackpool then they'll hit with her with a samba the week after to get rid. That doesn't leave a lot of ballroom options for next week though, and I can't see them risking something like a jive or salsa the week before Blackpool. Maybe a boring floaty couples choice that they can get away with overmarking because all genuine critique seems to go out of the window on couples choice.
