Strictly Come Dancing 2022 #23

Nikita's post to Ellie is so heartfelt and speaks volumes about what a lovely guy he is. He's become one of my favourite pros on the show and hopefully he'll be on the show for a long time yet and get his shot at the glitterball.

 

[Claymorekick]

So, my takeaway from this is that Italy produces VERY hot dancers whereas we produce Anton, Kevin and Neil

New thread for Gorka's arse appretion

Credit to @Diagnosis123 for the fabulous gif!!

Recap -
Some dancing happened, not all of it good

Spoiler: In case some haven't seen results yet

Ellie S went after being in the dance off with Molly

We established Vito's parents are hot
The unshaven chest is really doing it for some people
And Gorka will likely kill off half us next week by dancing to Despacito

I think if nothing else Strictly 2022 will be known as The Year The Charleston Murdered Everyone

So far, in a 6 week period, it has taken out an impressive 4 celebs:
Kaye Adams
Jayde Adams
James Bye
Ellie Simmonds

Who shall be eliminated by this most deadly dance next? What unsuspecting minor celebrity will it devour without mercy?

 

[Elleyunsun]

Jayde is back on her bullshit

 

[ButtonDownTheHutches]

Lol, Shirley is not here for people insulting her son! Which, like fair enough, but had to chuckle at 'keep your opinions to dance and not a person's looks.' Many people would ask you to take your own advice there Shirls!

Shirley is to grammar what Tom Fletcher is to Couple’s Choice.

I have been applying for tickets for the live shows for at least 6/7 years, and I am going to Australia on Friday and all i’m going to say this ARE YOU JOKING ME !!!!!!!!!

I am actually gutted loooool why whilst i’m away

I think people are forgetting that Nikita would have had a massively different experience dancing and teaching Ellie - having to adapt choreography and learn her way of doing things does take empathy and compassion. I don't think it's a bad thing to acknowledge that and personally didn't see it as him being like "awww, you gave me the sads because you're disabled".

 

[Fillyjonk]

Decorating the thread with Hamza Yasplease- I mean Yassin.

 

[Elleyunsun]

As Seann Walsh continues his cheap attempt at redemption in the jungle, it’s very telling that Katya and Neil are out as good friends still, whereas Sean’s ex Rebecca is tweeting Women’s Aid links about gaslighting and abuse.

New thread decs

I can’t explain it but I just know he smells nice

 

[Fillyjonk]

Hamza is so lovely, give me an adorable cuddly man over a 'beefcake' () you'd have to share the mirror with everyday (this isn't shade against Gorka btw, I can understand his appeal )

I don't want to bring the smut over here but I genuinely think Hamza would be both AMAZING at sex and deliver incredible cuddling afterwards. It's all we want!

 

[Fillyjonk]

I reckon next week Shirley will have full on posable dancer dummies and they will be TERRIFYING and she will make them talk.

Shirley: And what did you think, Mr Twinkleton?
Shirley as Mr Twinkleton out of side of mouth: You were shite! Close your sodding feet!
Shirley: Now that's not very nice, Mr Twinkleton. Under the desk you go.

 

[nicalibres]

Ellie’s only crime was waffling. I thought she did really well - she had natural rhythm and a lovely partnership with Nikita. She also never used her condition as an excuse or grab for votes (I don’t even remember her mentioning being a paralympian?). She threw herself into the Strictly experience and clearly loved every minute.

 

[Elleyunsun]

After being a bit fuming at Craig for giving Ellie T that 3, his comments to Molly before the dance off when she was upset have redeemed him. She needed that caring but firm little speech.

 

[soccergirl]

I love Aljaz but if he is hoping for a presenting career, based on this segment, he shouldn't give up the day job (babysitting Sara's kids)

 

[GiftedNotFree]

Sorry guys, I’m not over that video of Vito in the tanning salon yet.

I don’t think I’ll ever be over this. Dear god!

 

[Elleyunsun]

This will get downvoted but lets not forget its not a one person competition there are others in the competition. Just sometimes it feels like Hamza is the only one that matters and that only him deserves recognition.

That seems jolly unfair- we constantly recognise what a mardyarse Will is

 

[zeroess]

Read the spoiler and couldn't watch tonight because I felt awful for poor Molly. Must be upsetting to dance wonderfully and receive no criticism, yet be marked lower than people who did receive pointers, then end up in the dance-off and know it's because you aren't connecting with voters despite being nothing but positive and lovely. Hope it doesn't knock her confidence too much.

Of course, it must comfort her to know that the love of her life, Nikita, is now out of the competition and will be able to commit fully to their awe-inspiring relationship.
