He looks like he’s doing the Tory stance 😅

No it’s not, but 3 new tours from pros who have never done their own tours before just seems strange to me? Gorka and Karen touring together again makes sense but Nikita having an individual tour with a lot of dates and large venues seems a bit premature and Vito and Dianne is a very random paring. Dianne and Vito’s tour starts on the 11th June, so assuming they want more than 10 days to rehearse, their rehearsal time will overlap with the end of pro tour and their final few dates will overlap with when Strictly rehearsals usually start. Amy and Carlos should be ok, they seem to have picked the slot right between Strictly Live tour ending and Pro tour rehearsals starting. I just think they’d struggle for numbers if pro tour is going ahead with Nikita, Graziano, Dianne and Vito all out of the line up.

There might not be a pro tour next year

Ian Waite and Vince Simone are now saying there’s a 4th pro but are refusing to say who. That’s pretty hard on the decent pros.

I think Ian and Vincent need to grow up tbh
If they have information then instead of chatting gossip around they should take it to whoever is senior in the backstage investigation.

Theres a forth current abuser on the show, there's a fourth victim of abuse that Vincent witnessed they're spreading the rumours while doing nothing to protect future contestants .
Morons.

Strictly's pros reveal FOURTH celebrity has clashed with partner

Former Strictly professionals Ian Waite and Vincent Simone have become the latest alumni to wade into the BBC show's scandal.
www.dailymail.co.uk www.dailymail.co.uk

Vincent saying it was a couple he choreographed for who had a chaperone and Ian saying women pro’s can be just as tough as males🤔

Yes, I watched this this morning, Vincent said he was choreographing an Argentine Tango, and there was a fella sitting in the corner, with a laptop, for two days, I think he said, who was a chaperone because the couple did not get on, and he wouldn't name names.
 
I like Vincent, always found him faintly ridiculous as a supposed "Italian continental lover type" ( We have plenty of them now;))
but to come out with his tuppence worth and not name names is ridiculous and dangerous. Ian needs a kick up the ar*e too for speculating too.

Add to say: Wasn't there speculation that the lovely Mr. Simone badgered a celeb partner for a bit of extra curricular shenanigans. I think silence is the best policy right now.

I bloody love Ian. I can imagine he's completely right and some of the female pros have been shocking - wonder if any will come to light?

Whatever happened with Ola and Steve Backshall? Did they really have a chaperone because he complained of bullying?
I think it was Erin Boag who was known as Miss Whiplash?
And what really happened with Robert Webb? I know he had heart problems and that's why he pulled out but did he ever appear on It Takes Two or at the Final? Because I feel that if it had been just medical reasons, he would have appeared again but I don't think he ever did?
 
It certainly wouldn't surprise me to hear that about Ola, I mean she is married to James after all :sick: I really liked Erin at the time but it was such a long time ago now and I was alot younger so it's likely I didn't notice stuff you would now if you rewatched it, I mean I guess she must have got that name from somewhere :')

Still fucking beggars belief someone with heart problems got ON the show, shows how fucking lacking their entire production system is.

Imagine if the sweet and innocent dianne buswell was also accused.

I really liked Erin!
It's so interesting because in the past, as has been said, and Ian Waite also said, they showed the clashes in the training rooms.
I've been watching Strictly since the beginning, barring a couple of years I was overseas, and the Best Friends Forever nonsense of the past few years, where the celebrity seems to have to say that it's been the best experience of their life and they love their Pro, is really annoying!
It has become so false, the whole thing.
The other thing that annoys me is the big fuss over Blackpool (the holy pilgrimage to Blackpool 🙄), more phoney baloney, because don't they only go to Blackpool because Children in Need need that studio that particular weekend?!

That's true actually I've never thought of that before. Like it's human to clash, just because you've been given a partner doesn't mean it will work out, it's more human to show that than force these fake showmances. Obviously not to the extent of Graz but I think it would be refreshing to not have the 'best friends forever' line shoved down our throats for every single partner
 
Amanda is appearing on Lorraine next week. Not sure Lorraine is the right place to speak. Lorraine has been downplaying the Graz incidents. Plus Lorraine is big on trans rights (I am not sure she is really, but she loves being a LBQT icon) and Amanda has been hounded on X because of her views on the subject. So Lorraine is unlikely to give her sympathy.

Pasha is appearing on Loose Women next week too.

It's not going to be Lorraine, it's Christine Lampard. I imagine it's more of a general chat about SCD and that Amanda won't be able to say anything about FR.

Dan Stalker 😂

Never understood how he got so far in strictly. There was just nothing interesting there at all.

Shirley absolutely loved him didn't she? I think it was on one show she berated a contestant (can't remember who she hated at the time) with her usual stern 'it's week 5 now and you really should be able to do that step' then when it came to Dan came out with her 'what people have to remember is it's only week 5 and so to even attempt that step at all is amazing. Bravo' type stuff.
Quite why the public kept him in is baffling though.
