When on TV threads I’m always petrified of saying the wrong thing so shove everything behind a spoiler 😂🤣
Catching up with the thread and this slightly off topic, but I was on another thread here last year for a popular TV show (based on a book, which I have read) and I spoilered a post about a potential ending...someone then read the spoilered tag and was annoyed at me!!!
Like, wtf...it clearly says "spoiler" don't get mad at me if you click on it!! 😂
 
Hahahaha I too thought Kevin had snuck into the group photo and wasn’t at all shocked 🤣🤣🤣

I think we’ve got some really good pairings this year, it has the potential to be a line up that excites all the way to the end. Last year I was bored by about half way and only kept going because I’ve never not watched a series and wanted to see moody Will finally get booted off
 
Agreed, I would like to see the contestants start off with basic ballroom and Latin dances - no CC, Charlestons or other speciality dances until much further into the competition.

I live in hope that we won't have to endure squeaky lady's caterwauling. I can't think of a song she hasn't ruined.

I really hope they showcase the dancing and don't lean excessively into this stuff outside of couples choice routines. Always the hop lol
 
It’s funny how different perspectives are because I read on the DS that Dianne was lovely and was chatting away to the audience more so than other pro’s.
Absolutely not. I was by where she was dancing and she didn't once chat to ANY audience member. She was all over the male crew members, in fact at one point she was whispering in ones ear. Johannes ,gorka, Karen , Anton, katya all made the effort. She absolutely did not.
 
Hamza and Jowita as reigning champions do their week 4 dance. It was good. One of the crew said he'd been there since early morning. And hadn't stopped rehearsing. Also surprisingly Amy was there. She had her photo taken with the judges and pros before they did their dance routine. Some shouted out we love you Amy and she waved and then hurried off. I think she was a bit overcome.

Giovanni made a huge effort with a group of downs syndrome audience members. He came out before we'd even seen any pros or judges and was chatting to them and signing stuff for them. He seemed a decent guy.

I’m sorry but your post has me in stitches “all over the male crew”. Did you forget to mention Joe was there? There was pictures of him in the background of some of the pro’s instagram stories. I take your post with a pinch of salt especially on this thread. The poster on the DS was someone who confirmed the couples straight away, posted they had tickets a while back, and has not posted any sort of pro Dianne posts so it’s not like they’re a “fan”. So I’m going to choose to believe them I’m afraid.

OK Dianne! Struck a nerve have i? Look back, I posted ages ago I had tickets. I see you Dianne👀
 
So you're saying the person on the DS was wrong about her being nice and friendly? Someone with no invested interest in her compared to here on this thread where people have an active dislike for her seemingly including yourself?



Gosh, go and take a cold shower. It's quite possible for one poster on DS and Libbub to have seen different things. Do you really think she's going to pretend to have been to the launch and make up some story just to appease us Big Meanie Tattwers Who Don't Wike Dianne? Do you hear how silly that sounds?

Have you ever wondered why so many people don't rate Dianne? Are we all wrong?

I think being a bit flirtatious is part and parcel of being a dancer and what might seem too flirtatious to one person won't seem that way to someone else. I think we also have to remember that these are people that she's worked with for 6 years now so she's going to be comfortable with them. Unless someone sat there and just looked at Dianne the entire night it's possible that they saw something someone else didn't and vice versa.

I think its weird when the two opinions are so varying. Like I said in my previous post I find it hard to believe anyone posting something negative in a forum about a person when people in that forum have an active dislike for her? Can that be wrong? Do you not even think how far fetched it sounds even with your hatred for her?

Especially there are people out there who have met her in person at the launch shows (who have picture evidence) of her saying how nice she was and at tours and other events.

I would choose to believe someone who has no invested interest than someone who seems to have an active dislike which actually now seems very creepy that she was being watched that intently.

repost a post where I've said anything negative about her aside from what I saw last night. She was not friendly. She did not speak to the audience.
On the contrary I think your super fandom for Dianne seems to have you in a right old tizz. You can always ignore me.

I just said I saw a post contradict what you said about her; you seemed to be in a tizz over that. Like what @louseylou said maybe its different perspectives but because they are wildly different I choose to believe one over the other; sorry if that upsets you. You can always ignore me.

I really think you're twisting it and getting a bit carried away. She's hardly said Dianne was going around punching kittens in the face.

In fact I've never noticed Libbub so much as posting about Dianne before so not sure where this active dislike is coming from. And Libbub has given lots of info about other couples and dances as well as Michelle's creepy boyfriend, so I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark and say she wasn't staring at Dianne all night.

Just a case of seeing different things. Louseylou is right in that dancers are touchy, it was probably just that.
 
I don't see how his attitude would effect Michelle's longevity on the show. He obviously didn't make a good enough impression on the producers when he was on the show before as an extra dancer so he's not going to be asked to be a pro, unlike Neil and Katya.

Connections and affiliations matter, the UK Strictly brand is the most important, anyone tainting that brand will be out. He obviously was there to make an impact appearance and get noticed, obviously he did.

It sounds like it was a very long filming session for everyone there. It probably just boils down to 2 people without an axe to grind saw different things at different times.
