FLEUR AND VITO JUST WON AT THE O2 !!!

Everyone on tour after 2 weeks of Neil's hilarious pranks

 

[Elleyunsun]

This is giving ‘first holiday with my dad and the man he left my mum for’…

TBH I’m just glad she’s not in a double breasted shit brown blazer.

Someone on DS called Gio a "a sort of sexed up Italian Daniel O'Donnell".

 

[Fillyjonk]

Reducing it down to the sympathy vote dehumanises people with disabilities. Let's not do that.

Fleur and Vito won again! (Helen second again).

 

[soccergirl]

Hamza won today, yay! And Fleur and Vito were runners-up again..

Gemma posted a lovely video to her story of Gorka dancing with her aunt at her 70th birthday party. What a good egg

 

[Elleyunsun]

I’d rather walk to London than be on a party bus with Janette

 

[PillowsofFluff]

I'm in a 10 year relationship, we have a beautiful daughter, and if Vito knocked on my door I'd probably waltz off into the sunset with him tbh.

(Of course, I am joking.)


(Unless you're reading this Vito )

After last year's your, John almost immediately did a solitary trek across the west highland way with little or no contact with the outside world. I know it was for charity, but also an understandable reaction after spending 3 weeks on Janette's party tour bus

Save Tyler - he’s at the cinema watching Avatar with Neil and his girlfriend.

Ok, I totally read that as ‘Steve Tyler - he’s at the cinema watching Avatar with Neil and his girlfriend’ and for the life of me I could not fathom how that little trio came into existence!

 

[ButtonDownTheHutches]

Did Will go out for a curry on his own? Tyler mentioned on his stories this morning that a few of them were going out for a curry or sushi?

I like to think that Luba and Will went for solo curries and ended up in the same restaurant but sat resolutely at separate tables and didn’t acknowledge each other beyond a polite nod, each luxuriating in the pleasure of a silent balti.

Whoever signed up Vito to strictly, needs thanking he really is a gift.

 

[LowCalCalzoneZone]

From Gemma's stories, this is so sweet. It must be so exciting for her to go backstage and see everyone

 

[Elleyunsun]

Anyone would have won with her because she had the sympathy card. He’s nothing special.

I kind of loathe myself for biting on this, as I’ve ignored several previous posts of yours in a similar vein.

You are very much free to think that, but I find the logic a bit off here. Why didn’t Ellie Simmonds win/make the final or further into the competition then? Why has she won no tour shows if the strictly fans and audience can’t resist voting out of sympathy for a disabled person regardless of how they dance? Why have previous disabled contestants had a mixed bag of results on the show, just like the able-bodied dancers?

I really don’t expect everyone to like her or think she is a great dancer, but I find this endless ‘sympathy vote’ dismissal of anything she achieved on the show really tiresome. Rant over

Nikita’s parents were apparently there yesterday. He celebrated by holding a Ukraine flag at the end and… re-enacting his shirt-whipping-off! Legend.

 

[Elleyunsun]

I have to say, having to spend that much time with Neil, Janette, Dianne and Amy on a regular basis would give me a mild form of PTSD.

 

[Elleyunsun]

Luba just shared this she’ll be counting down the minutes until she can bin her matching pink primark jammies and get some friggin’ peace.
