I guess it's all about perception I could say the same thing about Jowita when I went to see the tour this year; I felt she was the least engaged with the audience compared to the other pro's, didn't really interact with audience compared to the others and remember seeing her brush past and not wave.

I also feel that doesn’t mean I think she is a nasty person or dislike her but it means that could be perceived as arrogance as well. However as there is literal video and photo evidence of both Jowita and Dianne smiling and interacting with fans on tours I think its safe to say that a one person glance or stare at a person for a moment in time does not define that person as a whole.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Surely Anton should be happy people are still watching and engaging with the show after all these years?

Besides the majority of the strictly viewing audience wont have even read or even know about the spoilers in the first place.
Which is funny because when I went to tour I thought Jowita was great with the crowd and very interactive. It really does just depend on how each individual perceives it.

I guess thats how perspective works especially when its just in the moment or for certain periods of time; I deal with the general public at my work and i'm sure if someone was to stare at me they wouldn't see me looking so chipper at certain parts of the day.

Poor Mrs Dave.

Is Mrs Dave involved in the spoilers at all?
 
The last time Nadiya was benched was covid and the pros basically couldn't be at home so it may have meant she wouldn't get to see her daughter so I completely understand why she would have been benched then. Don't get me wrong, I'm delighted for Luba but there was actually space for both of them this year.
Yeah I’m not getting why it has to be one or the other either. I would bench Karen or Dianne before Nadiya - I appreciate it’s down to personal preference but Karen and Dianne have been there for a long time with little success.

Although Karen had a tough gig last year 😬
 
Also in the audience was this guy, he strutted in wearing flip up sunglasses a white vest top layered with gold chains and a jacket on top and propped on his head was a wide brimmed hat. He wasn't a family member but all the younger pros seemed to know him as they exchanged words with him. What a total cock. He thought he was some sort of superstar, he sat in the seat and spread himself out so much so that the poor woman who was sat next to him couldn't sit down. In the end she got so pissed off she practically sat on his lap, he soon moved then.The people behind him couldn't see because he refused to remove his hat. The only good thing was as soon as the warm up guy saw him he got the piss ripped right out of him for pretty much the entire evening. I'm desperate to find put who he is.

Is this him?

As Nadiya was benched before then maybe it was an easier choice to bench her again or maybe she was happy to be; she might want more time to do things with her daughter. I can't imagine Nadiya dancing with Bobby as beautiful as she is she does have an older than her years look to her which I think would make them a mismatch; maybe why her and Kai suit as a couple as he looks older than his years as well :LOL:

I honestly think at this rate Karen is going to be there until she drops. :unsure:


Inside leak, they need to drum up people talking about the show as it's lost its way and has two bit 'star's now days

I think its an ''all publicity is good publicity'' tactic.
 
God I haven't had this much of a lecture on perspective since I studied Psychology at uni 🥴 Everyone has a different perspective, that has been established many, many times since yesterday, can we move on now please?
In a desperate attempt to change the subject, I was looking through Hello or OK (I swear I only read these mags because Readly keep giving me free trials 😁), and there was an interview with Johannes where he was talking about how he'd like to meet someone, but monogamy is a big thing for him and not everyone shares those values 👀 I did wonder if that was a bit of shade at John after everything he's been saying recently. Or is that just my perspective? 😜

Also I am loling at Lenny posting as she catches up with the thread 😆
 
Just ordered this lot for my party! Has anyone else seen anything else Strictly themed or is this too much about as much as my loved ones will let me get away with?

And Etsy or Not on the Street have loads of Strictly stuff.
 
I still find that so funny, it’s in my top three Strictly Unintentionally Funny Moments of all time:

3. Craig thinking Anton’s Austin Power teeth were part of his costume.

2. Weel Mellorrrr (as pronounced by Gorka) reassuring his (almost) adult children that he was ok - not marking himself safe from a terrible disaster, just butthurt that the Judges didn’t rate his moves.

1. Tom Fletcher’s face when he slowly realised his barefoot wafting had not gone down well with the Judges. Bonus laughs at dedicating said dance to his sister who is alive and well and sees him fairly regularly (Uncle Tom 😳).

If there isn’t a Will or Tom this year, I really don’t think I can watch it. But there will be, and that’s one thing Adam is definitely in the running for 😬

Yes, I am laughing all over again at all of these 🤣

I was just half listening at the time but I actually thought Tom was talking about someone who was ill or had passed away when he mentioned dedicating the dance to her. 'Oh she is performing at such and such...' 🤣

Craig talking about Anton's teeth 🤣 and Will being 'fine'🤣.
And Tom's face - priceless!
 
For someone who is <to me> so vanilla Dianne definitely brings out the protective. Someone on DS was merrily telling anyone who had even the slightest criticism they didn’t like her etc, etc, etc.
Baffling - I mean, she’s no Aliona, is she.

anyway, a personal plea … if we’re to have another year where even the mildest criticism is met with cries of h8tah, I will say that I fully expect I will be criticising each and every pro at some stage and a fair number of the celebs (and judges and Tess and possibly even Claude in extreme circumstance) but I haven’t got the inclination to actively h8 any of them. (This obviously depends on how early Les Dennis brings out the ‘don’t really nnnooooowwww’)

Again, I‘m not keen on either Janette’s presenting style or historically her choice of wardrobe so comments will be made. Again, no h8. She seems a perfectly amenable person. Just don’t like the way she presents.

consider these banked.
Amen to that. Last year felt a bit different tbh and it felt like a lot of pouncing on people for their likes or dislikes. (I do appreciate that I might see things differently because I’m not on Tattle because of Strictly, so I’m used to being on threads with a general consensus)

I don’t have strong opinions on any of the pros, good or bad. I do have quite strong opinions on wheeling out a sob story. So I too will be commenting on likes or dislikes and that will be how as they come across not because of race, gender, any sort of bias. And I’m going to try not to be out off someone based on their “meet your pro!” moment - you just know Jody’s partner is going to be waiting for them at a velodrome…

May we be united in our annoyance of Adam someone 🫶🏻

Can we give an honorable mention to the pure farce of the last -athon. Drunk auntie Shirl trying to navigate the ipad, announcing the results in the wrong order - it was absolute chaos.
 
Knowing Anton hates spoilers makes me love them even more.

I don't know why but "Don't spoil it for other people" juxtaposed with that pic is HILARIOUS to me.
I don’t know how many times the warm up guy made us boo the ‘Strictly Spoiler’. @Libbub did you get any of that?

That Spoiler FB group really shocked me last year, some of the comments in response to the finalists/Helen not winning were truly awful

We must be the same person as these are my top three too 😂 😂 Special mention to the weird throuple that developed between Amy, Tom and Gi.

One of my favourite Tattle posts of all time was a poster who said something about the three of them "with Sara Davies doing origami in the kitchen" I'm laughing now just remembering it
 
So it was filmed in reverse order. The dance the coupled up slebs and pros did was filmed first. So we already knew before they revealed it so to speak. Then they did the interviews , then they did the reveals. What was interesting was once the slebs had done their showdance and interviews who stayed and watched the rest of the show who came out and who took their family's and buggered off. I mean the friend and family section was so sparse at one point they moved the audience around to full the seats.

No he never mentioned it. In fact no one did. My husband even said he was surprised that they didn't say anything about keeping mum.
 
If he’s nice to her it will make people forget about Richie

I think that’s exactly why he’s doing the social media ‘excitement’: he knows he lost a lot of goodwill after his half-arsedness with Richie, so he’s trying to look like less of a twit this time round.

I like Amanda a lot, and I’d rather she was with Kai, but oddly the prospect of her & Gio doesn’t perturb me too much. I’m hoping for a few Stephanie Beacham/Vincent vibes from them 😎

When I discovered the Strictly Tattle threads, I read through the 'Most liked' posts one night, and cried laughing.

I highly recommend it to everyone 🤣
