    I can’t wait to decide who’s my favourite, not sure yet but a few possibilities 🙂 Absolutely love, love, love this show, my mom would’ve loved it too, she loved dancing, such a shame she passed a couple of years before it started. A far cry from the dreaded Come Dancing I had to endure as a child because my mom enjoyed it 😬

    Oooh I forgot Strictly was starting tonight!  Will have to watch it on catch up!
    Come Dancing!  That's a Rave from the Grave!😂😂😂. My mum used to watch it too and I remember when it was filmed in black and white. The commentator always used to describe the dresses and what colour they were. Had to wait till we got a colour telly before I could see them in all their glory!😂
