STRICTLY COME DANCING IS BACK

Strictly Come Dancing has finally returned to our screens, but regrettably, without our “American Boy”, Brian Fortuna.  The departure of three well loved favourites and the sidelining of two others to a “dance troupe” in preference of relatively unknown newcomers has been the biggest change, resulting in an inevitable outpouring of vitriol. But although I’m of the “if it ain’t broke, then don’t fix it” school, I was prepared to be open-minded.  So….I liked the new set design, two of the new dancers seemed excellent and I was pleased Brucie and Tess returned.  But the new dance troupe? Oh dear!
