Please Bruce give up gracefully or disgracefully and please take Deborah Meaden with you
:-| :-| :-|

OMG Lesley doesnt he make you cringed....... :-(

Christina has split from Joe Calzhagi so she's on the lookout for a new squeeze :-D

Tony Jacklin has gone to seed

I love Julien McDonald - he seems a lot of fun - I reckon Natalie Gumade is in with a big chance

Brucie should do one :-D

In the papers this morning it was reported that the show took 5 hours to record, cos they had to keep re-recording Bruce. He get forgetting his lines, and could not read the autocue!

I hope Vernon Kay does not get his job, he is not up to it. Get one of the professional dancers.

James has got his hands full!

Bit of a damp squib start I thought, but it can only get better.

:-) :-)

Would love Anton to take over from Brucie.

Looking forward to Julien as wondering how much input he will have into the design of his costumes.

I'm not surprised it took ages to record,
it took me awhile to make out what he was
trying to say and read, he's long overdue to go.

Emma

Blimey he has tiny eyes already, but when he screws them up to read the autocue, I am squinting along with him!

:-0

Have watched recording this afternoon and I'm soo pleased Rachel and Pasha are dancing together :-D
Looks like most of the couples are well matched imo. quite a lot of new dancers too.

Enjoyed Flavia & Louis in dance from last year. Pity Natalie is injured I liked to watch her.
I love Strictly but it's just a pity we have to have the judges :-(

I thought they'd matched the dancers up well too. Agree that Natalie Gamede looks one of the most promising.......well she looked like one of the professionals in the group dance, so obviously hasn't forgotten the training she had years ago.

Anton would be great to take over from Bruce when he goes. He told him he wanted his job too! :-)

I love the judges and you do need the panto villian :-D

can't wait for the spats between Craig and Vanessa cos there are sure to be some and my money's on Craig!!!

I also like the judges and I think Craig will have his hands full
with Vanessa and also that designer chappie who is very OTT
and sure to get snappy. He seems very hyper, think he will upset
the wardrobe lot.

Emma

Just a quick heads up for Strictly fans.

The first show is on FRIDAY night, at 9pm. Half the dancers will be appearing, and the next show is on Saturday night at the usual time, with the remaining dancers doing their bit.

I dread to think how long that took to record. Presumably it was all recorded on the same day, so................an all day job I reckon!

:-D :-D :-D

Can't wait....so looking forward to it :-D :-D

Quick reminder that Strictly is on TOMORROW night for the first show.

Not that your counting MG :-D :-D

Nah, GG, not at all.....................one hour 7 minutes!

I am sitting on my hands, I am so excited!

Any idea who is dancing tonight ?

On the countdown...a few minutes to go :-D :-D
