I think it is unfair for Sid to have to learn to dance with a new partner

ITT said Ola would be dancing on Saturday .Sid and Ola will only have today (Friday) to run through the routine together,it is so unfair.

They should have let him have the week off, I know they have let people miss one week before for illness, if he doesn't go through this week I can see some complaints

True that it's unfair but it's not Ola's fault, she had to see that her mum was ok.

I don't think Killer Queen is the right music for an AS.

Double, double, toil and trouble, our Strictly celebrities have been transformed into a motley crew of ghoulish, grizzly and fiendish characters for our Halloween special. We've got an exclusive ringside seat in this afternoon's dress rehearsal.

Take a look if you dare!

Hello everyone.

Evening everyone 

evening peeps

Colin's got me in stitches already 

Evening all 

Hello   I'm eating a kebab so one finger typing.

First time this series - I like Tess's dress.

I thought Bruce had the night off

I think that's in November - a mid way break so to speak 

sticking to my diet, I've just polished off a plate of chips 

Evening everyone

'ello 

I wish you'd stop coming on here with your kebab temptations!    glad to be home?  

Dunno about the rest of the show but the presenting so far is terrifyingly scarey!

With salt 'n vinegar, Pengles? 

I can't be doing with all the inbetween nonsense.

Oooooooooooh those orange socks do nothing for her legs

Snap Baz!   

what is vincent like in that wig 

It's not the most flattering outfit is it?   I wee skirt would have helped.
