Strictly

[naomi24]

I've not watched this for a long time.  Samey, noisy, and rife with people prone to screaching hysteria.  But .... I might give it another try tonight.  

 

Anyone else watching?

[campbellking]

Of course, wouldn't miss the sparkles and sequins for the world...(although the launch show is not normally the best)

[MargoTester]

I'll be watching,Naomi but it's just the programme where the 'celebs' are introduced to their partners (pre-recorded) so it will be v noisy. I'd advise you hold off for a week and watch the actual dancing live, I think you would enjoy it more

[mallyh]

i'll tape it and zip through it later as i find the introductions boring

[choux]

A "no" from me, naomi but I hope the fans enjoy it.

[naomi24]

I'm recording it too, Mally.  I record everything not only because it's more convenient to watch when I want to watch but also so that, like you, I can skip through the toshy bits.

[Hazlinny]

I don't watch it now  ....  would rather listen to music.

[naomi24]

Just looked at my 'op'.  'Screaching'?  Where on earth did that come from?  Oh well ... never mind.  😂

[Cloverjo]

Husband watches it, so I will catch bits of it. I recognise about half of the contestants. I hope Annabel Croft does well

[roopower]

I watched it though it's not my favourite show in the series. A few I'd like to do well this year. 

[Zacs-Master]

Yep love it. And it looks like a good line up this year, except Les Dennis. 

[dave50]

Who are these people?

[naomi24]

Well, that wasn't very successful.  I watched the first eight (I think) babbling on .... and I struggled.  Having finally lost the will to live, off it went.  I'll try again next week when they're dancing.

I watched it when it first began but was appalled by the way the judges were so unkind to the contestants. I've never watched it since. I know many of my friends think it's wonderful but I don't like it at all.
