Re: Strictly Come Dancing Launch Show

I am not a big Strictly fan but after reading this thread, l downloaded it.
I must say, it seems more glitzy this year! I can't stick the two presenters so l was able to fast forward them!
I liked the new judge Shirley Ballas, although when l first saw her, l thought it was Arlene Phillips, a previous judge.
I liked most of the contestants, they all seemed very enthusiastic and up for it!
Even, Ruth Langsford made me laugh out loud with Anton Du Beke.
I think l will enjoy this series!
I have a feeling, that the vicar will go out first!

It's not worth the hundred and odd quid for the TV licence then

I supposed they get paid well though and have the compensation of not having to struggle with them for too many weeks.
I can understand some being really pleased with their allotted partner but I do think they overdo it a bit when they get the plodders.

Yet another example of the tail trying to wag the dog by the loud-mouthed minority.

ETA. I didn't watch it BTW, I'd sooner watch paint dry.
Which channel is that on and can we vote?

Re: Strictly Come Dancing Launch Show

Thoroughly enjoyed the show, lovely tribute to Bruce Forsyth, and the contestants matched with their partners very well
