Strictly come dancing!

Hello all!
So this year I'm actually going to watch strictly! Any long term fans here or newbie?

 This thread is to discuss strictly! The dances, the partnering, who you think will win, sad someone you liked left (use spoilers so those on catch up don't have it ruined) ;)

    3 years ago the Telletubbies were on Strictly doing the theme tune dance. It shows that even Cbeebies characters can dance. It inspired me to learn the dance too. So hard but great to do. 
    I am so sad that Darcey stopped being a judge on Strictly. She was my favourite one and my inspiration to dance. Except for my various dance teachers in the past. I am proud of her for the wise decision she made though. 

    The pair where the man only got 2 weeks notice about having to train was amazing. I cannot believe that they did so well. 32 out of 40 is so good for their first week. I can't remember their names but they blew me away.

    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Hopefully. Accidents definitely do happen. I accidentally overstretched my back in dance so now I feel sore.

    Its upsetting that saffron is treading on twitter because shes "not got a proper job" No need to hate on her for that, must feel horrible

    I know that I would feel horrible if I was in her situation. Why does hate even have to exist?

    I hope that James and Luba get eliminated. They were not even that good.
