Also it's no surprise that this partnership has caught it as McFly have been touring all over the country and would have come into contact with lots of people.
Really hope both are ok, especially Amy who suffers with Crohns disease.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
I'm guessing because they like them and want them to stay in.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
The protocols are much different this season. Last year everyone was in a bubble away from their family and there were no guests on set. This year family are there and the bubbles can include family etc.
This year they've gone back to the original injury protocols. You can have 1 week off, but no longer and he'll have to leave if his symptoms continue post the 10 days (various examples Janette/Will recently). He can have a replacement partner if she needs longer (see Alex/Neil/Kevin a few years ago).
They also announced the extra precautions before the show started last year and there were no vaccines and we were in lockdown for a lot of the show as well. Things were just much more locked down last year, this is more similar to normal series injuries/illnesses.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Things have gotta start going back to normal, whether people like it or not. Celebs can't just keep getting thrown off things because they tested positive for Covid, as long as there's vaccines now you've gotta treat it like cold or flu. Like others have said it was different last year because the countries rules were stricter and there were no vaccines yet.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Lots of attention on team JoJo (John & Johanass) first male pairing on the show and yes much congratulations to them from me as a gay women. However, I just dont think it is as brave as people are saying cos it's much more acceptable now. Plus they tested the water with the less offensive pairing of 2 females last year.
Tbh I'm just as excited for Rose the actress who is strictly first deaf contestant. I know we have had contestants with disabilities before and I'm full of admiration for them. I admire Rose as it must because major challenge for her and her challenge just doesn't seem to have gained the response she deserved.
The first that I am the most excited about over the weekend was Sara Cox who became the first female rugby referee to take charge of elite men's premiership rugby match. What a beautiful response from the crowd. Let's hope it won't be long before she is the first female rugby referee taking charge of a six nations match.

Could Katie be bisexual? Her love life doesnt quite add up.
Hangs out with gay best friend all the time.
Regardless I like her personality.

If she hangs out with gay, I presume male best friend then she's obviously a --- hag. A term which I really hate.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
I think they are allowed to stay because there hasn’t been a public vote yet. Nicola and Katya had already been in the bottom two prior to getting Covid so it was clear at that point they weren’t going to win. Seeing as Harry from McFly won several years back and Amy is a popular pro they were probably seen to have more potential to allow them through the week when they would probably not be one of the couples in the dance off.Guest wrote: ↑26 Sep 2021, 21:39How come they don't have to leave the competition altogether like Nicola & Katya did?Guest wrote: ↑26 Sep 2021, 20:19Strictly has been hit by covid.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
I'm putting it out there now I don't want John and Johannase (team JoJo) to win. I dont know yet who I want to win but not them. The female pairing ended up in the bottom 2, i know if team JoJo are in the bottom 2 they will be saved by the judges. There will be outrage from everyone on Strictly about how homophobic the country is if they end up in bottom 2.

That seems a pointlessly bitter take on it. The female couple were saved by the judges too come.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
I'm touched by Greg tonight, maybe it's because I've lost a dear loved one too.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Craig is bias. Been harsh and horrible to everyone else so far and nothing but praise fo team JoJo.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
The judges marking is total bullshit tonight. Some got as low as 3 and deserved better. We know that Motsi is always going to over mark all the women who look like her and Craig is going to over mark the gay guys and under mark the best dancer on the show and that is AJ.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Loved Rose. Also chuffed for Sara who went from bottom of leader board last week to top of leader board this week.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Anton doing a great job judging. We don't want Bruno back.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Can't really tell who's gonna be bottom two. I think maybe Nina and Rhys. It should be Greg but it won't be because he had a sob story that'll get people to vote for him.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Oh I'm sorry Nina is in the bottom 2, I love Nina but don't like her partner Neil. Thought it would have been Judy Love or Tilly Ramsey.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Neil isn’t a great partner as he can’t choreograph well for a celeb and that often is the downfall of the celeb. You could see how much better Alex Scott was when she wasn’t partnered with him to prove it. Nina sadly got the worst end of the draw being partnered with him and although I’d say she should’ve been saved over the other two I’m sadly not surprised.Guest wrote: ↑03 Oct 2021, 18:57Didn't think Nina would leave so soon.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Nina was one of my favourites. Cant believe she was first out. Quite a good name too. Done loads of tv and british films and actually half and her dancing was good she was not a stinker first boot on paper! . Just had crap routines and songs.
Neil cant stand him.
She was a good name on strictly. The other females are quite meh. AJ is great for the dancing tho.

I agree with the public not liking Neil. I think it was horrible of him to make Nina do all her training in heels not trainers. She said she had blisters on blisters.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
The public liked him when he was one of the Standby pros. But the moment he got an actual partner of his own he exposed his failure at being able to choreograph for his partner everyone went off him, not helped by Kevin coming in a showing how he was far superior as a partner.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
All the professionals did a dance routine with opposite sex then switched to same sex. Did anyone see who Amy paired up with?
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
I still think there should be some kind of "punishment" for people that have to skip a week. It feels unfair that they've essentially skipped a week when the others haven't. I understand it's only extenuating circumstances, but still.
Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Harsh. They both tested positive for covid, I'm thrilled to see Amy back with a bang and fighting fight. It could have been difficult for her with her condition. If you get a chance watch the documentary she made for the bbc, after watching that I'm amazed with what she has achieved.Guest wrote: ↑09 Oct 2021, 19:13I still think there should be some kind of "punishment" for people that have to skip a week.

That being said, I do think they could come up with a better solution in this situation other than just giving them a free week. Many of the other competitors have talked about how sore they are and how difficult it is to switch from dance to dance, so it seems a little unbalanced to me that people potentially get a week to recover when they don't. Maybe they could ask them to do a longer dance upon their return or something? I don't know. It's a difficult situation, especially as sometimes the week can be used because of injuries so that wouldn't be fair.

- AJ cos she's the best dancer in my humble opinion.

Re: Strictly Come Dancing
Watched the show last night, good line up of contestants but the show is being spoilt by the judges right now. They reek of desperation, they totally want the first male pairing to win the glitterball. If they carry on as they are and they end up winner there will be accusations of a fix.
