Strictly Come Dancing 2023 #22

I do think the "woman waiting for her lover at war" theme for remembrance dances is getting stale.

Women were so much more when the world was at war.

At this stage I'd even appreciate them representing the messenger pigeons more than this boring sentimentality that erases the crucial role of women.

Where did how’s Trish come from?

The finest 18 seconds of acting you've ever seen

 

[Geetbo]

Motsi looks incredible tonight.

 

[Geetbo]

The judges are going to drop her like a hot turd after next week.

 

[Geetbo]

Ah Vito time.

 

[Diagnosis123]

"Big spatula energy"

 

[iLoveNectarines]

Ok so how has it taken me 20 years to realise that the order they come out in is the order they dance in

 

[Millais]

Burst out laughing when Dianne sprinted away from the The Consciousness of Bobby faster than Usain Bolt.

I just went on Twitter to see what James Jordan had to say. He’s in Dubai so no comments on the show but posted to remind us all what a delight he is.

The fact he thinks what we’re doing tomorrow is “celebrating” proves what a dunce he is.

Krishnan's video this morning about how much he's enjoying strictly got me! I love it when people fall in love with the show.

Krishnan has been such a joy on this show and the perfect first partner for Lauren. It reminds me of Ed Balls with Katya - both partnerships were ones on paper that shouldn't have worked and should have been early exits and instead they were both joyful.

I do get the impression from him on ITT this week and that video that he's mentally prepared himself to go home tonight but I would love for him to make it to Blackpool. I would much rather watch him there next week over three or four other contestants.

Holidaying in Dubai is a red flag in itself.

Vito knows what the people want and I respect it. Somewhere Brendan Cole is yelling, “won’t somebody think of the children” at his TV - even though the female pros danced in little more than a bikini in his day.

 

[shugabug23]

THAT is why Claudia is a master at live telly!

(Haha imagine Jeanette’s reaction!)

 

[JCMSadie]

That was incredible. One of those Strictly moments we'll be talking about for years. No wonder Layton looked like he was going to cry at the end.

 

[KeriRhys]

Oh for fucks fucking sake.
Husband came in wanted to talk about fucking Christmas Dinner and what he wants so I missed 90% of that.
Fuming.

Have you considered divorce?

 

[Geetbo]

Not to be too emosh, but I have to say thanks to you lovely lot. I really needed a laugh tonight, and I'm so glad for this thread saving me from watching Strictly alone every week

I go round my mums and watch it with her most weeks. We get pissed and slag Shirley off.

 

[Boogs]

I’m late to the thread tonight & missed most of the dances. I’ve had a difficult week so Layton & Nikita made me cry. I think it was because of the song as I went to Eurovision & it was perfect. Such a moment.

They made me cry too. So much emotion and I think what they are doing is so incredibly important for the LGBT community.
I almost stopped breathing at this part

 

[soccergirl]

I feel a bit weirdly emotional about that (hormones + wine + Vito's chest)

Love Ellie. Take that her ugly ex!

 

[jfletcher]

Usually, I love that Craig is the only thing standing between the judges panel and insane scores for everyone but that absolutely should have been a 40! He’s given a perfect 10 in week six before so there’s no excuse.

 

[hellokittymermaid]

Vito normalising natural body hair. We love that in this house.
