Strictly Almost Upon Us

[ethandron]

Let the dancing begin :)

[gingejbee]

Of course, there are those who hate it...and, boy, will they let you know!

[ethandron]

I care not one jot ;)

[237SJ]

I always used to go round to my friend`s house and watch it over a bottle of Cava but she has moved away. If she was not around at the weekend, I would watch it at my Mum`s but she has died so it`s a bit sad for me. It`ll be another "first"

[ethandron]

You can watch with us 237 :)

[Baldric]

Time to reinstate the door between the Dining Room and the Lounge methinks!

;o)

[New Judge]

Pro-celebrity ballroom dancing?

Now, if it was underwater extreme ironing you'd be talking!

Time to go down the pub,methinks.

[ethandron]

Well, that was great.
Poor old Carole didn't seem entirely happy but the rest of them were really good considering it was their first dance.
Bring on tomorrow evenings dances!

[Georgiesmum]

I have never watched this programme before.I watched it tonight for the first time. only because I wanted to see Jeremy Vine, but i was disappointed , he didnt come on.

[silliemillie]

He will be on tomorrow night, too many of them at the mo for them to all be on together.

[Caran]

Really enjoyed it. Seems an awfully long time since the last series.

[Ouzel]

Good to have it back and, apart from the boxer, recognised everyone - not too sure the same will be said about tomorrow's show !

237SJ - the "firsts" are horrible but, after that, it does begin to get a little bit easier. Take care x.

[DaisyNonna]

Underwater ironing could lead to shocks
Let us enjoy the sparks elsewhere

[Georgiesmum]

Im looking forward to seeing "Cider with Rosie" tonight.

[New Judge]

Is Victor Sylvester still on this "Come Dancing" programme?

I think his catch phrase went something like:

"Slow -- slow -- quick -- quick -- slow"

[gingejbee]

Cider with Rosie....SUNDAY night....

[viv41]

237SJ - I know what you mean. My Mum and Dad always watched it and Dad always wanted to know who was out (as I could find out on here the night before), but Mum never wanted to know! My beloved Dad died earlier this summer, so it will be a 'first' for me and Mum now. Hard isn't it ?

[MargoTester]

Wow that takes me back a bit New Judge! Thought is was a good star to the series with a couple of the ladies emerging as real contenders already.

[237SJ]

I hate to say it but Peter Andre is good.

[scorpiojo]

Agreed :)

[Eve]

He was fantastic! Some really promising dancers this year, quite a high standard set for the first episodes!
