Didn’t they do a show at Wembley one year as well? I remember thinking it realllly didn’t work in such a large space, it made the dances seem small and pathetic if I recall

ETA - last year there was a rumour one of the shows was going to be done at Buckingham Palace 😂😂

Twice at Wembley, 2011 & 12.

I'd take the entire series in Wembley over one episode in Buckingham Palace.
 
I continually forget that Oti and Motsi are sisters! The information just will not stay in my brain for some reason! 😂

Also, I never used to think they looked much alike before, (which is probably why I keep forgetting they're sisters) but a little while ago I happened upon an older clip from the German one and actually mixed them up. I literally was like 'wow, I had no idea Oti had ever judged on the German one' and then she started speaking and I realised it was Motsi, and that she looked almost indistinguishable from Oti when she was younger/thinner.
 
Oooh, this week's DO has got me...

🤣

Angela R is a shoo-in, I'm sure. Has there ever been a bounce back from two consecutive DO's? Regardless, she's the inevitable one.

Nigel and Ellie - safe with a strong public vote and should both be high scorers.

Bobby - may get overmarked this week, but I think he's more popular than here and DS make us think. I predict he's safe.

Annabel - seems the obvious one, but she's a proper Beryl favourite. If Ellie T got through BP last year, I think she could, too. I predict she's safe.

My two at risk are Layton (and if he is, I will go postal and kill people) and Angela S. If Layton gets the 40, LB position should be enough. Angela S is my wildcard. She could go either way with this routine, but does have proven public support.

And then factor in ties on the LB, etc.

tit, somebody tell me now!! 🤣

The only good bit about Wembley was the bit where Chelsea shot fireworks out of her arse 🎆🎇🎆🎇



Oh, and the time the Wembley bottom 2 got spoilered on DS before it had even been announced in the arena and all hell broke loose 😱😱😱

It was the year Russell Grant was shot out of a cannon ( or something like that). It didn’t work at all it was far too big.

Yes loads 😁 It’s not that uncommon …just series 19 had 2 different couples on 2 dance offs and then safe, Tilly and Rhys. (Jude had 2, then missed a week and then went.
 
Speaking of Wembley, totes manifesting a recurrence of the Donobot jive for Knobby on Saturday:


I love the Judging for that. Nothing says ‘we were anticipating giving you 10’s because all week this has been promoted as the d ace’ than trying desperately to pretend it wasn’t a hot mess that was ropey long before the random jigging on one leg and still going with 8’s and 9’s … and people complain about the marking now.

Ha I'd forgotten all about Wembley but Blimey that performance was ropey and the place is just too big for it.
