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 😳).

Greatest thing that ever happened on Strictly.

This man had a wife he had known since he was what 13, 3 kids, a band … all of which could have been great couples choice options but instead he dedicated it to his sister being a west end star. It was bizarre.

To a song that’s from the woman’s point of view that is not easy to dance to In costumes that have been rubbed in soot.
he must ponder daily what went wrong.

'The series 21 partnerships are as follows:

15: Amanda Abbington & Giovanni Pernice
14: Angela Rippon & Kai Widdrington
13: Layton Williams & Nikita Kuzmin.
12: Krishnan Guru Murphy & Lauren Oakley.
11: Eddie Kadi & Karen Hauer.
10: Angela Scanlon & Carlos Gu.
9: Zara McDermott & Grazio Di Prima
8: Adam Thomas & Luba Mushtuk.
7: Nikita Kanda & Gorka Marquez.
6: Jody Cundy & Jowita Przytal
5: Ellie Leach & Vito Coppola.
4: Bobby Brazier & Dianne Buswell.
3: Nigel Harman & Katya Jones.
2: Annabel Croft & Johannes Radebe.
1: Les Dennis & Nancy Xu.

I’m pretty certain these are all correct, the ones I’m slightly doubting from memory are Adam and Bobby’s partners (especially taking height into account) but even so I think they’re right as listed.

Meaning Neil Jones, Michelle Tsiakkas and, new to the bench, Nadiya Bychkova are without partners this year!'

Bang goes Bobby’s chances of lifting the glitter ball. Surprised at Nadiya being benched but delighted Neil is once again

Me too. Can you get some video messages from the Strictly bunch wishing you a happy birthday @shugabug23?

I also get Charles Venn vibes from Eddie which pleases me immensely. I hope his socks are perfectly adjusted.

Honestly, I think Zara and Nikita could do the ‘twins swap’ thing and no one would notice.

Nigel is working his best The Hoff look.

And it’s true, Les Dennis is Keith Chegwin <points>.
 
I think there’s a lot of unknowns with this cast and a lot of people seem to have been written off prematurely, especially the women.

I agree on paper that Bobby, Nigel, Layton and Adam seem like obvious front runners imo but I think there will be a few dark horses and surprises to come.

I agree, plus those we think will be good might not be. The person on DS and our Libbub both said Bobby didn't look that great and made mistakes - however, he might be a really good learner. Nigel and Layton are dance trained but not in ballroom or Latin, who knows, they may really struggle?

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 😬

I love all of these but have to add the absolute shitshow of the Lindyhopathon

Tom going out was immaculate- it made every couples choice worth it for that moment of sheer agony and ecstasy 😆
 
Ok this is beyond random but help me out. Was there a dance once by someone wearing a gold shiny suit a clock on a chain around their neck??? A man??
 
I was going to wait until the launch show but curiosity got the better of me :ROFLMAO:

I’m looking forward to Nigel and Katya I think they’re a really good pairing.

I was expecting Bobby to be paired with one of the taller female pros and it seems weird to pair Diane with someone tall after her struggling with Tyler’s height last year :confused:

I also expected Layton to be paired with one of the taller male pros since he said when he was revealed to be taking part that he wanted to be thrown about. Although as someone mentioned before, Nikita did lifts with Carlos last year so maybe he’ll still be able to throw Layton around.

I can’t wait for the series to start now.

*apologies for any name misspellings
