Strictly's Back

How can Tess be ignored ?

It cheers me up, too. My DH thinks it's dreadful but gallantly cooks the dinner on Strictly nights and beyond a bit of eye rolling he doesn't complain too much.

Well every year I say I'm not going to get into it but every year I end up getting hooked.
Ballet or not Debbie M was great. I've had the ''celebs'' all explained to me so now , so bring it on. It brightens the colder autumn and winter evenings. (Just ignore Tess)

Grumppa - 'strangely attracted to millionaire Paul Daniels'

Debbie and Paul were married 28 years? There must have been some magic in there somewhere then.

I just looked McGee up on Wiki. She's done a lot of ballet training so it's not a level playing field which seems unfair. The new judge did well but someone should tell her she can't award an extra point just because she 'liked it'. I wonder if Darcey feels overlooked but perhaps it wouldn't be right to have a ballet dancer as head judge of a ballroom dancing competition.

What ever the strange attraction the marriage lasted 28 years

McGee was very good, but she had been a professional ballet dancer before she was strangely atttracted to millionaire Paul Daniels.

Really enjoyed it and so glad it's back!

I thought Debbie McGee did really well.

Merlot, I agree Debbie McGee was a surprize. Susan was better than I expected.

He was brilliant.

I agree about the singing Alima.

If Richard Cole was our vicar I'd go to church!

Well I started to watch it and was bored within 10 minutes.

It is recorded so I can watch it another time as it might just have been the frame of mind I was in.

Like others I only seem to know about 4 of them

This series looks very promising, shame about some of the crap singing.

That new judge is a big improvement on Len. Mind you she looks and sounds like Arlene!

Susan Calman was really good,maybe not technically but it was hilarious

OMG Debbie McGee.

I love listening to Richard Coles, his Saturday morning programme on radio 4 and when he is on HIGNFY

I hardly recognise any of them but expect I'll get to know them over the coming weeks. I always liked Brian Conley. Hope he does well. Time will tell!

Shall watch the dancing and judging. Everything else is fast-forward.

The only person I recognise is Ruth the lady married to Eamon Holmes. Ah well no doubt I will find out who they all are.

I cannot stand Claudia Winkleman's stupid humour and when I read how much she earned I was flabbergasted. I do enjoy the judges and the dancers.

only watch it when my GD is here so we'll watch tonight,I do like Joe McFadden ,have since he was a boy in Take The High Road ,watched him all through his career in The Crow Road and Heartbeat and Holby ,hope he does well

Looking forward to seeing if Kush, Raf and Mo can dance tonight (can't remember their reall names )
I probably won't watch again until Blackpool.
I recognise about 6

Can't wait it beats X Factor hands down
