OK, was at LCD Soundsystem last week, so this is ep 1 of the new series for me. Thoughts;
I’d love to nut that vicar, hate him, not nearly as I hate Anton tho - the Nigel Farage of Strictly.
Craig and Bruno are still my two favourite people on TV <3 <3 <3
Darcy’s talked the producers into letting her be really nice to people this series, but she still winds me up for being posh.
No strong feelings on the new judge, but I miss the absolute boy Len.
I’ve come around to feeling benevolent towards Claudia “car crash” Winkleman’s presenting, it’s ropey af but at least it’s preferable to when we sat there worrying that Brucie might expire before he reaches the punchline of his racist joke.
Simon Rimmer is hysterical, what a dick, love watching him.
Susan Calman is sort of funny and endearing I suppose.
I reckon Aston’s puppy persona is going to go across v well with middle England, and I’m warm towards him atm, but I don’t think he’s got the personality to sustain my interest up to Blackpool. Could be wrong tho.
Does Mollie King have as good banter as I think she does or am I just willing myself to think that because of how much I loved The Saturdays?
And I say this every year but the Beeb never pay attention for some reason; cut the dances out, they’re boring and unnecessarily protract the show, just get straight the the critiques, that’s what we’re here for. Nobody gives a fuck about ballroom dancing, it’s rubbish.
