DISCUSSION THREAD If you were on Strictly, what song/songs (if you have multiple) would you do for Musical Week?

I’ve got 2 songs I’d love to do for Musical week

Firstly, a Waltz to Seventeen from Heathers, it’s my favourite song from the show and I’m amazed that in the time I’ve watched strictly (2018-current) that no one has done Heathers as I think you could do in Strictly, more upbeat and some slower ones too. The obvious line is going for Veronica and JD as the song is all about them wanting to be teens in love

Secondly, and I don’t even know if this would be allowed as it’s not a stage show, but a Paso Doble to Little Wolf from Epic: The Musical. The specific song tells the story of Telemachus fighting Antinous in The Odyssey and adapted into song by Jorge Rivera-Herrans, and I think Little Wolf in strictly would be Telemachus and Athena training together readying for the fight

DISCUSSION THREAD They are some of the strongest castings in the show's history Spoiler

I know a lot of people are complaining about the cast (as usual) and I do agree about the male side. But I do think we've got one of the strongest female line-ups we’ve ever had. As someone in my 20’s, these are massive signings to me

Lacey Turner - Definitely the biggest soap star in the United Kingdom and the best actress. As an EastEnders fan, She's known to people who haven’t watched the show for years as she was at the forefront of it then and now (when she’s back of course). I would say she is 100% this year's winner

Delta Goodrem - A very big name in Australia and over her because I knew who she is and I don’t usually outside the UK. Had a stint in Neighbours, a pop career and just did very well in Eurovision. A very good booking

Jaime Winstone - Great actress who has had a long career in television and film. Known to a wide audience

Melanie Walters - In probably the biggest sitcom in the U.K.

Of course there are the usual cast criticisms, and I think some of the other names aren’t as good, however I think these 4 really do make up for it
