First show proper tonight, with all 15 contestants! And it is gonna be a long 'un. :-0 :-0 :-0

7 to 9.25 :-0 :-0 :-D

Pack your thermos, sandwiches and wheel out the commode. :-D :-D

Keeeeeeep dancing! :-)

Not home this evening so I will be whizzing through the recording Ibexpect.

Good idea Ann, probably the best way to watch it. :-D :-D

I thought it was entertaining tonight and there are some with good potential

I was quite impressed with the blind comedian Chris as wasnt sure how it would work but he did do better than some!

There are some with good potential and some who wont last long!

I think they all did well, it must be nerve wracking dancing in front of a live audience and knowing that millions are watching at home :-0

I too think Chris did very well and Dianne has to be congratulated on her teaching abilities. To be able to dance when fully sighted is one thing but to dance like that being blind is nothing short of brilliant :-0

I thought the girls outshone the boys though :-0. With Tasha, Sarah, Sam & Montell leading the way.

JB and Amy with their Waltz were the best for the boys and yes it was great to see Amy back :-) <3

I also thought for the boys Wynne surprised and I can see him being a contender moving forward :-)

There are some that have a bit of catching up to do even though it is only Week 1 :-0

It will be interesting to see how the Class of 24 all get on when the competition starts proper next week :-0

Well done to them all for a cracking first show :-D

Well that was a saga! I got a numb bum from sitting through it ;-)

I made notes all the way through, but agree that most of the girls did slightly better than the boys. Although Craig disagreed I though Shane did very well :-(

Not sure I like a hirsute Craig, but it may be cos he is in Panto this year? Still doing his maiden aunt act of disgust, but hopefully he will thaw out a bit as the series progresses ;-) See Anton has adopted Len's Seveeeeern. :-)

I though Chris's dance was nothing short of remarkable. Such a quick witted fella, he offered to drive Craig home. :-D :-D

I see Dave Arch got a mention in passing, but still not naming the singers. :-| They are an integral part of the show, and without them it would not be the same. Come on girls give them a proper mention.

The screeching upstairs with Claudia was reaching fever pitch again. Show your appreciation, but the constant chanting does get a bit wearing.

A good show nevertheless, we will see what we will see over the coming weeks. :-D

I thought it was good too although I must confess to a bit of channel hopping during

the chat.
Chris was fantastic and loved his comments afterwards :-D :-D

Chris has definitely got Craig summed up

'I'm too k******** to care what your score is'! :-D :-D :-D

:-D :-D :-D @maggie

First show proper tonight, again a flask and blanket effort :-0

I wonder if Nick will be taking part as he has hurt his arm. Looking forward to seeing Chris again :-)

Looking forward to the show tonight, haven't found a favourite yet.
Happy that Nick is dancing tonight think he is dancing an American Smooth.

Toyah definitely has to up her game last week was not good.
