I have to agree. I love someone that doesn’t take themselves too seriously. I’m a Jamie fan after the bedazzled condom.

Yes, weird Sexy Ghost Boy hive rise! Maybe this thread can be his social media presence. I found out last night that every scene he's ever done in EastEnders since 2006 is on YouTube and I was sucked into watching until about 2am 😳 he's doing things to me

I have never found him remotely attractive but I do love how he is throwing himself into the experience and giving no shits. That’s very attractive.

It’s presented as a sort of a ‘dance contest’, but realistically it isn’t any such thing, because it can’t be.

It’s a light entertainment show themed around dancing, but when you’re putting people in their 20s with dance training up against people many decades older than them, people with zero performance or dance background, people with varying disabilities, etc., obviously the ‘contest’ element is something of a misnomer.

There’s no point thinking about whether anything was scored fairly or not because nothing about it is objectively ‘fair’, and that includes the contestant trajectories that are manipulated behind the scenes (who gets a decent costume, who gets a sensible song that is appropriate to the dance style, who gets designated as this year’s comedy contestant, etc.)

Let’s be honest, in what parallel universe was Les Dennis ever a viable ‘contestant’ against the likes of Layton or Ellie? 🤷‍♀️

I totally agree with this (and really my only ask would be that the judges are not overly mean to the contestants and give them at least something in the way of useful feedback that they can use - either a moral boost, performance tip or technical feedback, doesn't matter which)

He doesn't appear to have any airs or graces or the merest hint of an ego, despite having been in the public eye for years and stage school trained.

I'm really hoping they will shut up about his bloody Christmas win now and let Jamie live. I'd like to see him have a bloody good dance in the next few weeks as I know he has it in him and it feels like he's warming up to it.
 
Oh Nikita 🤣

Sadly, based on my years of Strictly tabloid-watching, I tend to go by the rule of thumb that the more the papers are pushing it, the less likely it is to be true (and the most accurate Strictly gossip has appeared in the Sun of late)

I'm open to being proved wrong, though!
 
I did have a theory that giving Jamie arguably the hardest ballroom to start (VW), then the "dreaded" rumba next, followed by another tricky ballroom and that outfit was a genius double bluff by thr producers to make it look like my boy was being shafted, thereby a) gathering some sympathy and b) giving him an easy cruise of dances, leading to winning the whole thing after a baptism of fire. However, the realist in me doubts the producers have as big a crush on him as I do. A girl can hope.

and never forget the true CC absolute robbery that i think i brought up literal two days ago because i’m still mad about it:

molly and carlos having to dance to the grange hill theme.

I still cannot believe that happened 😂
Was Grange Hill even Molly's generation?

Perhaps he can take the role of the duffer being danced around to make him look good 😅

This is the man who gave us Sara's showdance. I have absolute faith in whatever he can bring to the table 😇😈
