I was mistaken earlier - Pasquale has just announced he’s doing Italy DWTS. Not sure why he wasn’t included in the announcement yesterday online.

So two months of lugging a lady round the dancefloor before inevitably being crowned winner!

From Les' moves to Tess' inability to ad lib, Strictly's failings were on show

IF Spanish television ever makes a revenge version of Fawlty Towers, I hope we’re all agreed Les Dennis is playing the bumbling British waiter. He’s Manuel all over. He’s got a bit of the Mr Magoo …

Hard to decide what I agree with the most. Probably the bit about Tess.

I must have missed the part where, and I quote:

"the dancers who were doing the show only to conquer their crippling lack of self-confidence or in honour of their dear old mum".

Flick the flies, hold the handbag!

Walking on Sunshine was Abbey and Alijaz wasn’t it?

Yes, I wonder if they're going to work their way through Abbey and Aljaz's entire back catalogue this season

Who's singing this?

Vito got cream on his face? What a birthday present.

Naughty, naughty boy @StephenTJackson

Was definitely not bad but wasn’t the best

I'm not sure I can use Tattle for rave threads -it would feel wrong. But I'm very much enjoying Nigel & Katya

I’m still waiting for Tattle user Jomon10!!!!!!! to make a rave thread about Carrie Hope Fletcher

It’s interesting as I think Dianne said she liked the fact that Bobby had no dance experience meant clean slate and easier in a way.

I remember in either semi finals or finals night him saying that he wasn’t in a good place when he arrived at Strictly and his friendship with Fleur had saved him? Probably from the mess with Arisa.

I guess it took a toll on him.

How big is DWTS in Italy? Do they have to deal with gutter press over there as well?

thank you! Wondering how the AC/DC track will work?

 

[Ensay]

Roll on Layton/Nikita.

 

[lavendervase]

I had a dream last night I was giving Gorka hair extensions so it could be cut in to a nice wee whiff a la Gorka and Alexandra…

I meant Quiff…not whiff…

I like Nikita too, the footage of her Charleston didn't look as bad as I expected but we'll see...

Where did you see this??
---

He really does look so much better with hair, perhaps your dream will manifest it?

I really hope so!!

 

[lizzolyn]

I was more intrigued by the Botox in the fridge! He probably didn’t look scared.

Oh god yeah I remember hearing that and thinking it was a mistake

 

[Hareandbear]

She didn’t choreograph it.

Oh sorry. I didn’t realise. Thanks everyone for updating me.

 

[Boring Monday]

Who's singing this?

Jesse, I Think.

 

[lizzolyn]

Forgot to put my score - Bobby - 8

Mystery as Strictly star’s fiancée snubs his stunning partner - sparking ‘secret feud’ rumours

STRICTLY star Gorka Márquez’s fiancée Gemma Atkinson has snubbed his dance partner Nikita Kanda by not following her on social media. Radio host Nikita is taking part in this year’…

I’ve noticed this before. I don’t think she has been friendly with any of his dance partners

Only Helen iirc but even then they weren’t *that* friendly from my memory
