Strictly Come Dancing 2018

[Pickman's model]

We are watching the football

Shit result

 

[spanglechick]

Joe Sugg is good, but I can’t care.

Joe Sugg is good, but I can’t care.

He has the legs of a tall person which seemed semi-detached from his top half

 

[spanglechick]

He has the legs of a tall person which seemed semi-detached from his top half

Yes. He’s altogether slightly oddly put together.

 

[Ms T]

Spider - swanny! Totally nailed it.

 

[Ms T]

I love Pasha so I can forgive Ashley the ringer.

 

[spanglechick]

Loved graham and oti- buttery cross that wardrobe didn’t get a better match for oti’s shoes. Red / black / gold would’ve been better than teal.

 

[spanglechick]

She won’t win anyway. The ringer rarely (never?) does.

And she’s quite fun.

 

[spanglechick]

That was very watchable, but totally contrary to the spirit of the film. Ashley is the total opposite of Baby. Glamorous, talented entertainer does something everyone knew she could do, doesn’t pack the same emotional punch.

 

[Ms T]

She came second in “I’m a Celebrity” so is obviously pretty down to earth. If it was later in the series that would have been 10s.

Yeah, leave Ashley alone. She might be a professional dancer, but she was lovely on I’m A Celeb. I like her.

 

[trashpony]

Buttery cross is my fave autocorrect
Ashley. Meh

Katie is sadly rubbish out of hold

I loved Kev and Stace

 

[Sprocket.]

And the minions jive? First dance of the season I really want to watch again.

A sheer joy.

 

[Ms T]

I didn’t see it. What was lovely about her?

 

[danny la rouge]

I didn’t see it. What was lovely about her?

She was just a genuine person with a nice personality.

 

[Ms T]

Amazing choreography from Katya.

 

[Ms T]

He is terribly flat-footed though.

I didn’t notice that!

Hmm. Katie just doesn’t seem to enjoy performing much.

I’m teaching La La Land in film studies at the moment. I’m therefore cross that the costumes and set are from an altogether different (and much more fabulous) song and dance number.

City of stars is a much less dancey song.

 

[spanglechick]

Sean Walsh as Neo!

 

[spanglechick]

Bless him. I rather love Seann Walsh.

 

[Ms T]

Faye was a-ma-zing.

 

[danny la rouge]

Three words. Fabulous.


(Subtitles on fire tonight).

 

[Ms T]

Should have been 10s.

 

[danny la rouge]

They’re showing us the film because nobody’s heard of the Greatest Showman, right?

 

[spanglechick]

I’m a bit behind, but yes, Faye was fantastic!

She falls into the “not a ringer because age” exception for me.

It was huge. Last Xmas. Nominated for at least one Oscar.

 

[blairsh]

Only watching this for Danny John Jules tbh

 

[RubyToogood]

It was huge. Last Xmas. Nominated for at least one Oscar.

I'm with danny.

 

[danny la rouge]

It was huge. Last Xmas. Nominated for at least one Oscar.

Completely passed me by.

But that’s not unusual.

 

[Ms T]

The standard is so high! I have no idea who will be in the dance-off. Lauren and Lee maybe? Should be Katie but I suspect she will survive another week.
