Looking forward to seeing Debbie again too. She needs to keep her head up and drop her shoulders a bit though, but what fantastic shape she is in and such supple legs and high kicks she can do. It's good to see her, and her hubby Paul would be proud of her.

Shirley Ballas, Mers pay attention darlink ;-) ;-)

I am looking forward to it!! :-D

Simon Rimmer is the chef :-D

I didn't think Ruth should have been at the bottom of the points board a few others where worse although can't see her lasting that long....hark at me thinking I'm Arlene Phillips because I can't remember the new judges name :-D :-D ;-)

Second show tonight, and the first when someone is voted off.

Not withstanding I think it may be either Brian or that Chef. (name escapes me) the others are too keen.

Cant wait to see Debbie again. <3

Ah that makes sense. She is very supple. Good for her!

Couple of plodders in the mix this year, wonder how long they will last?

Debbie used to be a ballet dancer and she kept herself in trim working with Paul.

Watched it Maddie but my excitement has faded,
hope it picks up.

Please somebody cool Bruno down...more OTT than usual.

Also found the voting not consistent with their opinions.

I think I might have to do some strategic voting next week ;-) ;-) ;-)

Well.........................did yer watch it?

Quite a mixed bag this year, always surprising when someone you think will be good turns out to be rubbish, and then there is the one that amazes you!

I was willing Susan Calman on, because she was so pleased to be on Strictly and dancing with Kevin! <3

I was amazed at Debbie McGee. What a trouper, she is the Lesley Joseph of this year. Fabulous legs too. Good on you girl.

I loved Brendan in his tails. He looked so elegant.

Anton did what Anton does best. Self depreciation. :-)

Roll on next week when the eliminations begin and the contest starts hotting up.

:-) <3

Synchronize your watches, the next show of the series is tomorrow, Saturday, 23rd September at 6.25.

Puff up your tulle girls, straighten your ties boys. We are ready to Keep Dancing!!

<3 <3 <3 <3

I liked the tribute - poor Tess was very upset again. I think they need to get the singers microphone working if they are going to place them on the dance floor. The sound was very poor

I thought Anton was going to get the one with the poison again this year - but no he got Ruth. Dont think he will be in as long as last year.

Felt very sorry for Kevin - he is going nowhere fast .

Rooting for Richard this year - trouble is you only get 3 votes and i have too many I like this time. Its going to have be a a bit of pick and mix until it all gets started & people drop out.

Anton - not his partner
Richard - Lovely Joe - Mo (hope she does well)

I think you know he is my less fave! I do rather like Old Snakehips Brendan though.

;-) ;-) ;-)

:-D :-D :-D Brenda I think you may be right

Sorry folks...senior moment ...I meant Kevin !
I am rather ancient! lol.

Now I get who you mean Twiddley :-D :-D :-D

Ask me again in two weeks, they may have calmed down
with a bit of luck ;-)

#simpers# who is getting on your nerves Emma? ;-)

I know my least fave dancer has not a hope this year, but it still wont stop him projecting himself all the time.

Who is Robin, Brenda? Have I missed a trick?

:-) <3

Lovely tribute to Brucie as expected.

Early days for me to find a favourite but a couple
are getting on my nerves already :-D :-D

Roll on two weeks time :-)

I agree Shirley.,id never heard of her and she does look like Arlene.

We will have to see how it goes.

Don't have much hope for Robin this year! :-D

I have never heard of the new judge
I thought though she looks familiar and then oh it's Arlene Phillps !!!!


Apparently I,m not the only one who has thought this
