Strictly Come Dancing 2021 – Launch Show Discussion/Poll

Here we go. Strictly season is officially upon us with the next 14 Saturday nights featuring our favourite TV show. Whilst we might already know all the pairings thanks to the pairings spoiler there’s still going to be a lot to talk about during tonight’s launch show.

You can let me know your thoughts about anything to do with tonight’s show right here in the comments or over on Facebook or Twitter. No prizes yet but this years competition kicks off next Saturday and its a huge one as one of you will be winning a massive £500 in Amazon Vouchers. But only if you are brave enough to reject the regular weekly prize. You can find out more details and how to get involved here.

I will also be opening a poll right here once all the couples are announced so watch out for that. As always you’ll be able to pick 3 favourites.

This poll is no longer accepting votes

Class of 2021 - Who are your favourite couples? (Select up to 3)

With Strictly Season kicking off soon my costs are soon going to sky rocket and last year hosting was costing me well over £500 a month. You can help me out with these costs by making a one time donation using THIS LINK or the button below. Please only do so if you can afford to do so and there is no obligation on anyone to help me out this way.

Or join the crew on Patreon. For less than the price of a coffee a month you gain access to the spoiler in an ad free form and also will gain access to the results of the exit poll providing the earliest indication as to how the dance off has gone each week minutes after The BBC vote closes and hours before the spoiler or any other spoiler source.

Or you can support me and earn yourselves £50 in the bargain by checking your energy prices and switching to Octopus Energy. Octopus have cheap green renewable energy, are a Which recommended supplier and are routinely cheaper than the energy price cap that many suppliers set their prices based on. The energy market is in turmoil at the moment with prices sky rocketing and the energy price cap due to rise by about £150 so this is a really good time to check you are on the best deal and lock in cheap pricing before they rise.
