I was about to post this when the thread closed, re who gets to be a novice and the show's storylines.

Dianne has pushed the NDB line with Bobby quite a bit (fairly) but the show has preferred his motherless boy storyline. As you say, they seem to have space for only one characteristic. Annabel = dead husband. It does seem that Vito was so appalled by Ellie's fitness when they met that he has imagined her as a 'blank slate' which I guess is a better description of her than a novice.

The Bury thing is mad - again, I think they've only room for one 'plucky northerner' while Ellie is 'girl-to-woman' and you can't be both. Reminds me of Layton's mum on Juliet's group saying that everyone in Bury would be voting for him and I thought 'even Ellie's mum and dad??' Maybe she forgot too!

Bit like AJ and John being from Blackburn and Wigan, AJ got the Lancashire Lass story that time.
 
To be fair I did the classic “ballet, modern, tap” combo as a youngster that most girls in my era did if you “did dance” which I’m guessing is also what Ellie did and I can safely say it would provide me with practically nothing that I could use in strictly. Unless it was done at a very high level on a proper scheme, but I’m guessing it was more the local village hall in Bury on a Tuesday night vibe, especially given that she joined Corrie at 9 and I doubt had much time for dance as well as Corrie and school.
 
Jeez if Bobby gets through tonight Dianne will screech, collapse on the floor, jump up, run around the stage punching the air then go back to Bobby while everyone stand there open mouthed! Then when Claudia interviews them she will be like 'well I knew we'd get through as we had the best dances of the night, no other contestant could drag their partner across floor like Bobby did' 🤭 🤭
