Not sure what Nigel is doing in his and Katya's latest stories but he's a growler, not a very loud one.

Katya is having a blast this year.

Nigel doesn't often play to the daft games Strictly puts on, but he has done today. Too much caffeine Nige?
 
I think it’s a great AT song for Strictly. Probably not for your more traditional AT but as some kindly explained to me yesterday, Strictly’s AT are a different ball game. They’ve always gone for filth in the AT. Tattoo starts quietly & builds to a crescendo that works perfectly in my head. That song had one heck of a vocal though, they murdered Vampire.. I don’t hold out much hope for this one 😭
 
I can't be the only one who can't see how the duck that song could fit an Argentine Tango, right?

And it seems my hopes for Nigel to have a Theatre/Jazz Couple's Choice have been dashed too, seems like a contempowaft song.

I don't think True Colours seems right for a Rumba either. *stamps foot* I want a sexy Vito rumba!

Or do I just not understand music?

Anyway, hoping for Krishnan's Samba to be a Judi Love style iconic moment.
Krishnan's best hope is to try to make it iconic I think, as Annabel will probably be more competent at hers.

Vito has already said theirs won't be sexy, which means sadly we won't be treated to a repeat of this marvelous routine (nb display of granny pants, and the moment at 2:25 when she charges after him as if he's stolen her handbag :ROFLMAO:)

What a strange set up. These two dance around a room while everyone else is sitting at dining tables watching them?!
 
oh god, some samba hell is incoming this weekend 😫 (or saaarrmbaaarr) if you're Anton.

Annabelle doing a samba to Shakira and Krishnan to Bamboleo 😣



It's a bit like they have called a taxi for Annabelle.
The producers sure aren't subtle, they want Angela R in Blackpool. I bet the weekend afterwards they will then give her a fast Latin for a mercy kill, there is no way she could manage a two dance week.
 
I don’t think it will be anything like Krishnans luckily, but I was hoping for something a bit more upbeat. I think it will be contemporary with some little jazzy movements at times which could be really good.

Contemporary seems likely, doesn't it? I'd rather that than some form of lyrical hip hop that I can't quite see suiting him.

I wonder what the story behind his CC is going to be. The song choice makes it seem like it could be dedicated to his wife but he's quite private so I'm interested in how much he's willing to share. Or I suppose it could go down the route of his own anxieties. It's definitely got the potential for barefoot, wafty dancing which wasn't my hope for his CC but it's Nigel and Katya so I'll enjoy it no matter what. I suppose all will be revealed when they're on ITT tonight.

(I should probably go and do my actual job rather than trying to guess the meaning behind Nigel's CC and rewatching that IG story of him growling in a pink fuzzy jacket.)
 
Don't know that Loreen song (I hate, HATE Eurovision) will have to look it up.

None of the others sound particularly promising tbh

I'm sure Nigel will be great but he's been saddled with some crappy songs/themes tbh. I'm not suggesting it's deliberate, there's usually one or two celebs who get the short end of the stick in that regard. Layton hasn't had a great pick either tbf. Lucky that Katya and Nikita can make it work for the most part.

I actually love Bruno Mars - except that song 😂

You need to come to Sweden with me. Eurovision is their Super Bowl and it’s infectious 😂

I agree re-Bruno Mars. I quite like him but I hate this song 🙈
 
Loreen is playing in London on Friday and I’ve sold my tickets… now I wish I came of there was a chance of seeing the boys there!
 
Aww I’m gutted that’s the song for Nigel’s CC! I wanted something with a cane and a top hat and gold to “there’s no business like show business” or similar!
I think they're saving a show stopper like that for his American Smooth hopefully at Blackpool 🤞

If this CC is dedicated to his little girl then I can I live with it tbh
she loves her Dad and Kat so it would be a nice treat for her to have her own dance created by her favs that she can look back on .
We'll soon know on ITT tonight.

Holy hell. Vito is sexy in that dance 🥵 I’ve never really got that vibe from him on Strictly, he’s all over excited puppy. But oof! Also, his ass in those trousers!

Yes, I hope so. I can't see an earnest, serious effort going well for him, so I hope Lauren gives him a really fun routine.

Ah, yes, I've just seen the ITT interview. Disappointed there won't be sexy, passionate Vito Rumba this year, shall just have to rewatch Fleur's.

Vito looks so different hairless! Still hot, but not as much. Died laughing at him saying he wanted to rip the tailsuit open and free his 'hair chest' last week 😂
