Heavens! All this fuss over a drunken snog! I wonder what the real Strictly judges would make of it after watching the footage! CRAIG: FAB-UL-OUS darling! DAME DARCEY: Loved the drama. Great story telling. I loved your top line, your head placement was perfect. Can't wait to see what you do next week!! SHIRLEY: I would have liked to have seen more hip action and movement through the lower body, Sean you were a bit stiff at times, but great tongue work - you could go all the way! BRUNO: (Falls off chair with excitement). It was a FULL ON RUSSIAN ROMP! SIZZLINGLY SEXY! A LICENCE TO THRILL! Brilliant! And don't forget Little Ms Tactful. TESS: Aw. So sorry you've been voted out Sean(n) and Katya. Are you two going to see each other again? [cont] ... Oops! I almost forgot to thank Lance and the fabulous Dave Arch orchestra for that sensational rendition of Me And Mrs Jones... Claud’ in the Clauditorium: Now you two... Straight after a Big Mac? I mean... really...

Well, this is a mess isn't it? And (quite frankly) a little weird.
When a friend of mine told me, I didn't believe him. I thought it was fake news to draw publicity for the show.
So, the kiss happens and they get caught. Then there is the fall out.
So Seann's girlfriend (understandably) is upset and leaves with the cat. Neill states that he's okay with it (eh? What sort of marriage is this?) and then I know, I'll post a naked pic pressed up agains a rock!
Then, when they realise that it's simmered to the point of boiling, they release individual statements.
And, if the latest is to believed their future in the competitions is now at jeopardy? This is last years pro winner!
So, holistically , apart from ruining their personal lives, they're stuffed up their professional lives (for a bit-these things blow over), bought the show into disrepute and lets not forget, this is a dancing competition- one of the most watched reality programmes on television- and whilst all this is going on are we focusing on the dancing, or the gossip?
Flip side, is that everyone is talking about it, again drawing attention to the show!
Bet you the BBC spin doctors are working overtimes as we speak!

So, possible scenarios for Saturday.
They dance poorly or averagely and get voted out - leave with reputation in tatters, punished by the public and tails between legs They dance brilliantly and get voted out - leave with a degree of dignity “ there was nothing going on, we didn’t quit because we weren’t guilty” They dance and somehow don’t get voted out - ride it out for one or two weeks then get voted out but let’s face it, it won’t be the same again.
I reckon if he does stay they will be on fire Saturday night.
BBC ratings soar whatever happens.

As Tess has stood by her slimy man, I imagine she doens't think it is much of a deal at all.

Nobody need 'say' anything at all. I bet Bruno has been told not to mention chemistry 😂 and they have all been told to go on 'as you were' as it were. But it is a terrible shame that dancing gets tainted with this poor behaviour and again I do think the contestants should bear in mind that it is a family show. And it is a pity too because he was dancing very well. So if he is voted out excuse he gets no votes how do you explain that to the kids.

This reminds me of the time that footballer John Terry was discovered to have had an affair with teammate Wayne Bridge’s girlfriend. Thousands of women who hate football - me included - were glued to Match of the Day to see how the feud would play out. The same will happen to SCD. I haven’t been watching the show - although I happened to catch Sean and Katya’s dance (and I did wonder if his girlfriend didn’t feel a bit weird seeing her boyfriend so touchy-touchy with such a beautiful young woman). Roll on Saturday night! You won’t be able to drag me away from that TV set.

The thing is, it wouldn't be the Great British Public who would vote him out, it would be the judges. The GBP could only put him in the bottom two. I wonder if they will be given instructions from on high, should this scenario occur ...

Interesting if he is in the bottom two as there is no obvious dud to go up against him. So they can chuck him out.

The whole issue will be ignored on Saturday evening.
Shaun(n) is not the strongest dancer anyway and was totally carried by Katya in that last routine. So it will not be a stretch for him to be in the bottom two with the judges and the public and the judges will vote him off as his opposition will have "more potential" or have "more dance content" etc. etc. Issue resolved!

They are doing a Charleston this week which rarely results in anyone getting the boot, mainly because it tends to be entertaining even if it's awful. And Katya's choreography for Joe's Charleston last year was spectacular, so I expect her to do something equally amazing on Saturday. What will GBpublic do???

They’ve got to be booted off! That kiss looked like far too much fun for a married woman to be having without her husband. When I was young drunken kisses did not look like that. When I was young kisses like that always ended with you-know-what...the BBC will no doubt try to gaslight us, but we know what we saw.

I'd forgotten that. Poor old Norm. (very horrible business happened to her boyfriend but I think that was a later one)

I don’t watch It Takes Two.... what happened? Very brief interview with Seann and Katya. Both apologized again for any hurt they've caused, Katya says her and Neil are fine, Seann says he's not perfect and neither was his relationship with Rebecca but the people that know him know he's not the person he's being portrayed as. They're working on the Charleston for Saturday. I mean plenty of people hide the way they treat their partners from their friends and family but whatever.

They're working on the Charleston for Saturday. I mean plenty of people hide the way they treat their partners from their friends and family but whatever. You're right. Being outwardly charming is an important part of the abuse and control. In my experience outsiders often think that the person being abused is the difficult person in the relationship, ignorant of the fact that they may behave strangely because they are being abused. While the abuser comes off as delightful and sociable.

I just read a report on the It Takes Two interview and I don't think Walsh is being honest. He doesn't address the fact that his "date" with Katya was premeditated. Otherwise, why would he have stayed out with her on his girlfriend's birthday to the extent that it caused an argument with said girlfriend? I haven't been watching this series and had planned to watch on Saturday for fear of missing out on the juicy scandal but I think it's all a bit of a joke now and I won't be watching.

(very horrible business happened to her boyfriend but I think that was a later one) Oh absolutely, that must have been awful for her. I believe she cheated on Norman at least twice. Wasn't there also a snog at (ironically) a Strictly wrap party which she laughed off as "meaningless" blaming drink which sounded the death knell for their marriage? She'd have to have had some brass neck to have really criticised Seann and Katya to be honest.

I once bumped into Zoe outside the Malmaison in Manchester.
Striking.
