ITT - that time of the series when less than 73 couples remain and they fill segments with some bloke and his bore off statistics, or Luba will do random meet the local fishmonger who demonstrate how to debone a mackerel because she always wanted to learn that, and Aliaz "pilots" around the world strictly.

Adam - I warmed to him and he was robbed over Angela R, he was so likeable on ITT yesterday, burst out laughing with The Curse. And sticking with my spidey senses - Luba has fallen for him.
Ellie and Vito matching again, both looked great in the black polo necks. Ellie looked gorgeous (also she looked like Megan Markle!) But Ellie is great.
I do think Luba fell for Adam too 💔 I don't think anything happened with them but he's obviously a kind man

He is, i was vocal about him annoying me but there's a vulnerability and kindness about him which is endearing.

Ellie & Vito - no romance, they're like Fleur and he was, just a fun, platonic couple.
(and on a side I always thought he was gay)

Also feel Katya has a crush Nigel for his looks and his dancing ability, which I also get from Nikita to Layton. Both pros are dancing with attractive celebs who are fun company and have shown talent in their field- the admiration can become fancying (doesn't mean they'd cross the line though).

After my expert analysis, I'm launching today the new dating app "Strictly Come Dating!"🥳

"brother and sister vibes"

From the Booby and Dianne school of brother-sister interactions... 😂

No seriously how have we not yet discussed that she grabbed his arse twice in the dress-up game? 😂

I lean towards thinking they're showmancing as a Glitterball winning strategy, but I wouldn't be shocked if there really was something going on. The matching outfits on ITT are certainly an interesting choice either way.
 
Watched Celebrity Gogglebox from last Friday night. Bobby featured with his dad.

He is really doing well for himself, with a part in one of the biggest UK soaps, Strictly and the rest.

Who is pulling his strings? Is it the dad?
Jeff Brazier has always been desperate for fame but is lacking the ability to be the star he wants to be. I always maintain that he was only with Jade to raise his profile so it makes sense that he would try to live vicariously through Bobby.

I mean, there was nothing to be attracted to with Jade, was there? Horrible personality and no oil painting to boot.

Jeff was in shipwrecked before Jade was in BB but nobody really knew who he was until he got with Jade who, love her or loathe her, was extremely well known after BB.
His ‘career’ has been built on being the heroic single father following Jades death. Nobody would have a clue who he was if that hadn’t happened. I don’t see that Bobby has any drive and ambition (other than touching Dianne’s boobs which he can now tick off his bucket list) so think that Jeff is definitely the one driving his career.

As I was watching them, I thought someone has to be pushing Bobby to get the work that he has managed to get, so far. I don't think he could have managed it by himself. He really seems so gormless.

I think that Bobby would be quite happy just sitting around getting stoned with his mates.
What happened to the guy Jade married?
I seem to remember him getting with Chanelle from BB at one stage. He was a fake hungry little chav but was only 21 when Jade died which, looking back, must have been tough to deal with for someone so young. Just looked him up and he’s apparently an electrician now.
He was modelling first before any tv work wasn’t he?
I think Bobby would probably be quite a good model. He’s tall, slim and quite striking looking. It would also mean that he doesn’t have to worry about talking and could just walk or pose for photos which would be much easier for him.

Yeah, plus he wouldn't have to worry about sentences. Sorry but I still can't get over that.

From what I saw he seemed to make a good model.

My reading of this is that there is nothing going on, but that Ellie is a 22-year-old girl who's been in a crappy relationship and has by her own words always had body image issues, and she is having a ball flirting with a hot Italian. I don't think they will be getting together but they are cute together so whatever happens I am not mad about it.

I think if they were really leaning into the showmance they wouldn't have a rumba all about Ellie's professional confidence growing, but perhaps it will end with Ellie snogging 'new, confident Elllie' (played by Vito!)

Anyway, the DM is running with it: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowb...each-cosy-Vito-Coppola-romance-confirmed.html

He's really not a dancer I get any enjoyment from watching if I'm honest and while I don't wish Bobby any ill will i do think this is all a case of way to much to soon and to young.

Fast Fame did Jade no good and I get a feeling Bobby has a lot of his mum in him tbh.

Apparently the barely out of his teens Bobby thinks nothing of going around backstage giving out his 'life lessons' to fellow older contestants who have to listen to this lad pontificating about the meaning of life, religion and inner peace etc as though they were born yesterday and Bobby is this guru.

Much like Jade you can tell Bobby is very strong willed and i don't think Geoff and his wishy washy pseudo babble coaching has done him much good at all tbh if anything it's rubbed off in a very unbecoming way 🤔
