What the fk has happened to Claudias face?

[SPR2]

I think her hair is much darker and off her face, doesn't really suit her.

God I love Craig.

She has bowed to corporate pressure. Less fringe, less war paint. More generic.

Hopefully her wit will not be diminished.

[Japveesix]

Well Caroline nailed the first dance, can't see anyone else matching that easily.

Scott and Bargain Hunt man both crap but Scotts partner Joanne the new girl is lovely. ...

[JonRB]

Scott is fun and cute (sorry, but he is) but he can't dance for toffee.

Tim makes my flesh crawl. Eugggh.

[Daz68]

Pixie looking good for the rest of the series. Scott was a joke.

Agreed. Even the girly pink dress. Mrs S was not impressed at her enforced BBCing either.

[Fishtigua]

Why did the BBC let a great big fat guntter in a silver spangly top sit behind Tess for the whole program?

[strummerville]

Because you're not allowed to offend anyone these days. It is the ultimate, absolute no no in the world of the trendy leftie.

Ola's dress

Indeed. You just know the mental is huge in her though.

[Daz68]

Gregg or Scott. Don't know which was the most embarrassing.

[SPR2]

Frankie waltz was lovely and so graceful.
Great number for the jive.

He made me cringe and hide behind the cushion, like watching a good episode of The Office

By jaysus, you get paired with the fittest pro dancer and then complain? I'd happily take her stern tellings off..

The look on Aliona's face when she was standing next to him after they got paired in the first episode was pretty sour. She wasn't happy.

[Granville]

Really don't like Tess's hosting skills. All seemed a bit.........false.........put on..........strained? Certainly didn't come across as naturally funny or amusing, but trying to do something that maybe should be left to Claudia?

Seems to be some talent and promising dancing to come if week 1 is anything to go by. And Greg Wallace (feel for him being paired with Aliona) is looking very trim these days.

[Granville]

She is / has been coming across as very unprofessional. I've never warmed to her, but she should remember that she is (supposedly) a Professional dancer and being paid to do a job, regardless of how good or poor her partner is.

If she doesn't like the idea of who she could potentially be paired with and that they may not be very talented, then I'm afraid it's time for her to step away from this programme and just stick to the show dances.

[Nom de ploom]

I didn;t think there was a massive no. of dance steps made over the weekend.

Jake probably the best as for week 1 a tango is proer tough.

might not be as bad as I first thought.....but more thatn a few wooden stomps from the blokes!!!!

[james_tigerwoods]

I rather like that boob-cam has been retained...
