It's that time of year again....Some love it and others hate it.... Dance

However, BBC have announced the first 'celebrity' to join the line up for Strictly Come Dancing 2017.

It's Mollie King from the girl band The Saturdays (Frankie Bridge from the same group appeared in 2014)

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/strictlycomedancing/entries/6525d4c5-3e53-4546-b336-45ebae3cf879?ns_mchan...

Mollie King....

Looking forward to tonight's show in a general way since my favourites Jonnie & Oti went out at Blackpool

 

Particularly will enjoy the professional dancers demonstration, looking to spot my fave = Bad Boy Brendan

As we know it's musicals week @Anonymous and I have just read this re the professional dance tonight

"The stage is set with an opening group performance featuring all the celebrities and the professional dancers performing a spectacular routine to the soundtrack from Oliver!, and then the competition kicks in".

Thank you for this @Cleoriff ... = ... Fantastic ... REALLY looking forward to SCD now Dance

It'll make up for my disappointment (wholly speaking) for the Blackpool show = it was messy / clashing colours for me

I think, on balance, it's Mollie's time to go, I don't know what anyone else thinks?

Wiith Susan gone they all have to up their game this week...We are reaching the point where anyone could go. Looking forward to Davoods Argentine Tango....

Edited to add that you may well be right about Mollie....The Rumba is notoriously difficult to get it absolutely right...(and Ms 'Queen Of Latin' Shirley Ballas will be watching for any little mistake...

By the way this, for me, has been the best group dance this season....(Last week)

Oti looking more and more like Beyonce...and proving to be one of the best pro dancers of the lot..

Ermmmm..if @MI5 is about and knowing his 'feelings' for Oti...he might want to take a second look...Dance

Yes @Cleoriff ... I totally agree ... Fab-U-Lous all round

It's Oti's legs & the way she uses them ... like a very athletic / stylist top gymnast ... not sure if that's the right description

No doubt @MI5 focuses on 2 of Oti's other attributes tongue_winking

Well I've said Oti is my favourite pro dancer and has bèen since she joined Strictly. I think she is a fantastic dancer and choreographer which she showed both with Danny Mac and Jonny. I always find it hard to watch anybody else when she's dancing.

As for @MI5 I think.he's got great taste 😊

I wonder if the taste is reciprocated...... 🤔

I must away and muse about that..... maybe an email to exchange photos... anyone have Oti's contact details?

Oti@SCD.com maybe.....

Not sure how/when/how they changed the scheduled music for Molly and AJ's Rumba?...It went from 'I Dreamed a Dream...to Hopelessly devoted to you...???

Apparently AJ asked for the change of music at the beginning of the week...so that explains that

Not happy to see 'the star of the show (Alex) dancing last again!

 

Gemma and Aljaz ....Quickstep ..it was lovely and they were undermarked in my opinion

Mollie and AJ...even with the change of music, that was the least sensual Rumba I have ever seen. Overmarked

Joe and Katya...Excellent. I never thought that Samba would work to that music...but it did. Well done...

Debbie and Giovanni. American Smooth...I was hugely impressed with that dance. (despite her mentioning her age and bad back....again). Right marks in my opinion..

Davood and Nadiya. Argentine Tango......Oh dear me. I was hoping for so much more but he did stumble a lot and his balance was off at times

Alexandra and Gorka. Charleston. Am I the only one who thought she was overmarked? It was good but not as good as Joes Samba....

 

I think the judges are showing who they want in the final....Another shock exit tonight?
