Not directly related to strictly but is aljaz getting any kind of rest yet?
He posts near enough everyday with time stamps showing hes up most the night caring for lyra which he seems to love so fair play all whilst janettes always getting a full night's sleep??
And then she keeps emphasising how tired they are but always points out aljaz has busy nights I can see how he must be exhausted sleeping on the floor at first but surely they could be sharing the duties out by now?

Not meant to be hurtful to anyone just curious that's all

Woman carries child for 40 weeks and works throughout much of her pregnancy.

Woman undergoes major surgery to bring child into the world.

Woman needs to be fully recovered from said surgery in a matter of months in order to resume duties as main breadwinner in the relationship.

Doting, non-working father does some night-time baby care and puts it on social media.

Woman is implied to be a piss-taking shirker who isn’t pulling her weight in the relationship.

I’ve heard of 2 which is more than other years for me🫣. Think you can tell Strictly is the only tv I watch apart from a few Irish bits!! I only know of Angela Scanlon and Layton (I’m a musicals gal too)

I'm the same, I never really watch TV so its a given that I usually only know about 2 celebs 🤣
 
I know Nigel, Krishnan, Zara, Bobby, Angela Rippon and of course Les. That's definitely more than year, although I don't think last year's line up was exactly teeming with household names.

Still no idea who Angela Scanlon is, I suspect she'll annoy me and I don't care to find out more about Amanda or Annabel based on their views.

Someone on DS paused the video Adam posted and tried to extrapolate the potential couples from it - could be bollocks obv as they could all have mingled around in the break:
Layton - Graz
Bobby - Nadya
Behind Nigel - Katya
Behind Adam - Michelle (can't see this tbh)
Angela S - Kai
Close to Les - Dianne
Nancy - Krishnan

Please not Nancy with Krishnan! He's the only one I'm invested in at the moment and she's just too much.
 
I knew Amanda because she was in Sherlock and Case Histories (and those maltesers ads) and Krishnan because he did Taskmaster New Years Treat, and wouldn't have known their names but I recognise Layton from Bad Education and Nigel from Downton and an episode of Miss Marple. So that's two more than I recognised last year (Ellie Taylor and Will.)

Most looking forward to the ones who are likely to be good (Layton, Nigel, Angela, Bobby) and hoping there'll be a likable improver or two as well.

I bloody love Ellie. Loved her before the show and loved her even more after which is rare. Her and Johannes were a lovely pairing and it sounds like just what he needed. I remember him buying her huge stunning bouquets of flowers every week 😭

She was fabulous. She managed to carry off some godawful costumes with style and elegance. The judges were tough on her at times.

I loved her and Johannes together, and when she left, she made the most beautiful speech about being proud of what she had achieved. I had tears in my eyes and that does not happen easily.

I will never forgive wardrobe for deciding that Helen was the only pretty woman in her forties who could have nice costumes and giving Ellie those costumes. I’d have cried 🙈

Ellie is so naturally classy and elegant looking, too. They could have dressed her beautifully. She looked gorgeous the first week with the 40's vintage style then it all went downhill.

I think a lot more people know Bobby than they realise once they find out he’s Jade Goody’s son.
Itv must be delighted, as it means they will be subtly advertising Big Brother, that starts beginning of October.
For once I know all of them except Nikita .

My mum is still traumatised by one of Ellie T's looks for the show. We'd just watched Smile at the cinema and they gave her such dramatic make up that when she smiled she looked like she was doing the creepy smile from the film!
She's so pretty, I don't know why they put her in half the costumes they did!
