New thread
i just saw it and am@Boogs
Can you re-post your post #1016 from the previous thread please. That thread has now been locked and more people need to see it. Thanks.
When she was on Love Island Tasha said she knew Gio from the world of dancing, and hinted there had been dates …. obviously open to verification.This was mentioned on the last thread but I was too late to quote
I miss Gio!!! He would probably have been benched this year due to the lack of women but honestly he have been brilliant with Tasha. He's got a ringer on the Italian show and their dances have been fabulous.
Probably wouldnt have been great with Sarah as she's cut from the small cloth as AA - prentious and precious!!! Just say you've got a daughter and shut up (although I did wonder if she was so vague in case people asked questions about where she got this 'little one')
Strangely I think he would also have been good for Toyah. I think he would played up the madness.
It's a shame that there's no way back for Gio. He did some brilliant dances over the years.
But hey they all need to leave at some point. Sometimes this year I thought Aljaz would be leaving in an ambulance!!! Aljaz will be on duffer duty for the rest of his time on Strictly.
But yeah - give me a choice between Aljaz, Neil, Vito and probably Carlos, I'll take Gio every day of the week.
Think Chris’s face says it all .. ergo “just duck off Shirley”i just saw it and amthat shirley went with THAT wording - how absolutely patronising.
i can’t find a way to repost boogs’ post but here’s shirley’s insta:
must have had a solid three minutes to reread that before posting and wonder how it came across, well done shirley![]()
I admit I'm a bit confused why people are saying it's insensitive and the wording is bad. I thought it was vomit inducing and very... Shirley, but is it actually offensive?I'm shocked that Shirley would put out such an insensitive caption.
Yes I believe they went on a date but she didn't want to take it further. Hardly surprising.When she was on Love Island Tasha said she knew Gio from the world of dancing, and hinted there had been dates …. obviously open to verification.

Looked like ArduinoI enjoyed the final, the result was inevitable, congrats to Chris and Dianne, I did love Tasha's showdance though. Who was that one male dancer during Raye's song, I didn't recognise him?
i don’t know if i’d go as far as to say it’s offensive i just think it’s really patronising: it’s the “it’s shirley chris! you’re blind! you cannot see me so i have to tell you who i am and that i’m hugging you!” she also doesn’t actually congratulate him, the whole caption is devoted to the fact that he can’t see her. i maybe get what she was going for but it didn’t land at ALL.I admit I'm a bit confused why people are saying it's insensitive and the wording is bad.

Oh I agree the post was all about her! I guess announcing herself is better than just pouncing on him without telling him who it is- she probably didn't need to put it in the caption thoughi don’t know if i’d go as far as to say it’s offensive i just think it’s really patronising: it’s the “it’s shirley chris! you’re blind! you cannot see me so i have to tell you who i am and that i’m hugging you!” she also doesn’t actually congratulate him, the whole caption is devoted to the fact that he can’t see her. i maybe get what she was going for but it didn’t land at ALL.
it’s not surprising from a woman who said “let me be your eyes” or whatever to him last week![]()
That's true. Jeez, she is mad about herself.Oh I agree the post was all about her! I guess announcing herself is better than just pouncing on him without telling him who it is- she probably didn't need to put it in the caption though![]()
that’s exactly it! i don’t doubt that everyone announces themselves to chris when approaching him because, just basic manners, but making your entire caption (without congratulating him) being like “chris! chris! it’s me, SHIRLEY” just has meOh I agree the post was all about her! I guess announcing herself is better than just pouncing on him without telling him who it is- she probably didn't need to put it in the caption though
Oh I'd forgotten the 'let me be your eyes' thing!!![]()
plus that dress must have rustled like tin foil, he would have known it was her from a mile away![]()
To be fair Chris’ fans on social media have spent the whole series infantilising him so it’s not just a Shirley problem.It's more than patronising - it comes across as infantilising. She's making it sound like Chris is a child.
That was one thing Tasha escaped, at least, other than that silly post from her old college talking about how impressive it was that she used to take the train!To be fair Chris’ fans on social media have spent the whole series infantilising him so it’s not just a Shirley problem.
Tasha reportedly said that one date with Giovanni had put her off Italian men for life. So no, that partnership would not have worked. She'd have been great with Vito (or Nikita) on the other hand.When she was on Love Island Tasha said she knew Gio from the world of dancing, and hinted there had been dates …. obviously open to verification.
