Might have been discussed here but what is this story about Giofanny wanting cameras in the training room from week two because he was concerned about Scabbington's behaviour? It sounds like gaslighting and spin from his dogshit legal firm about why cameras were always there when the inevitable crappy footage surfaces.
It has suddenly been stated even though he never seemed to have a problem before. I suspect as you say it is spin: he probably knows that the truth will never come out publicly as the BBC will surely settle this so why not muddy the waters.. I’ve seen more people discussing this and accepting it as gospel than the video he supposedly sent.

Horrific rumours that Michael Gove is being considered. Surely not that twit. He seems quite tall so Nadiya and Luba currently quaking.

Seeing as Nadiya was happy to go on GB News to promote her tour ( alongside Trump golf loving Kai) she’ll probably be delighted. Save Luba for our next female pairing!
You just know they’d give Gove to Katya though.
 
Boogs: "I hope Nancy is ok."

Did something happen to Nancy? I do try to keep up - apologies if it's posted above and I missed it.

I mostly lurk so thanks to everyone who keeps up and reports. I'm frustrated that we don't have the pro lineup announced yet. I'll be shocked if they keep Giovanni. It's been painful watching his sulking after Amanda left, and all this ugly fallout - and before that, he was horrible with Richie! My heart was broken for the poor guy.

I don't know how anybody could say he's a great pro after those two partnerships - his disgraceful behavior was quite unpleasant to witness.
 
Waking up to a chocolate-bearing Vito is a problem many of us would love to have!

I assume they did the bed thing for the lolz and they're not actually going to eat all that chocolate over those white sheets! :eek: 😂

Oh well, certainly not complaining about the view though! 🥵

That clip of Graz dancing that jive section solo is supposed to be with Nancy. I don't know why she missed that number, or if she missed the whole show or what, hence the speculation that something may have happened to her. Hopefully nothing too serious.

She hurt herself at the beginning of the show coming out of a lift. She seemed to be in the finale though, so presumably was taking care.
 
I see Dominic West has been mentioned as a possible name. I’d have thought he’d be too famous but apparently he’s keen to take part?

Jings I was getting Dominic West missed up with Samuel West (currently in All Creatures Great and Small)

I can't see Dominic West doing a full series of Strictly. Firstly the money ain't that good, even if it is a PR exercise. I can see him doing a Christmas special.

I would love to see Samuel West doing Strictly but again think he's too big a name.

I also saw thr article.(well read the headlines) that said Strictly was struggling to sign female stars because of the Gio situation.

I don't think this is totally accurate. I mean Gemma Collins, Ekin-Su, loads of Geordie Shore, Essex massive, Chelsea residents Love Islanders and youtubers would bite their hands off for a place on Strictly.

And let's face it, the BBC have got loads of Eastenders/Causality/Call the Midwife females that they can strong arm into participating.
 
Vito's vlog of him and Graz eating lunch in Sheffield - bread, pasta (carbonara obv), beer and limoncello, then wandering off to do a matinee! One of those items alone at lunchtime is enough to put me into a semi-coma, not to mention their waistlines - I guess dancing furiously for 2+ hours is enough to get rid of it!Anyway, Jovito seems to have been replaced by Gravito.

I see the Gio fans are dismissing the 'offensive video' story with 'everyone has a different idea of what is offensive'. One comment I saw on Reddit said 'I personally don't like Will Ferrell I find him quite offensive but a lot of people love him.' As if Gio sent Amanda an Anchorman meme! :rolleyes:
 
Not sure whether or not they'd actually go for Gove - there is precedent for taking recently retired MPs like with Widdy & Balls, but the era of government Gove was prominent in really was detested by many.
I would like to think they saw the backlash ITV got for Farage and Hancock, and would stay well away from politicians from government for now.
