Pictures of the week
We’re a week away from Strictly’s quarter-finals.
There are just seven couples left.
And the standards are so high even Craig Revel Horwood has brought out his 10-point paddle...
Yet one Strictly couple is certainly not pulling their hair out with the stress.
Well, as far as we can see anyway.
For Ellie Taylor and pro Johannes Radebe were having plenty of laughs in rehearsals this week – especially as they larked around in headscarves.
Comedian Ellie cooed: “Thelma & Louise are jiving into @bbcstrictly live show rehearsals. See y’all on the dance floor…”
Their Thelma and Louise theme is definitely more glam than the Hilda Ogden look I actually thought they were going for.
But if Ellie’s Geena Davis and Johannes is Susan Sarandon, who gets to be the Brad Pitt in this scenario? I guess it’s Craig or Anton Du Beke. Although if you’re looking for someone who’s really got the whole rugged, blue jeans, bare torso look
down, look no
further than Will Mellor.
The fellow Strictly star has been flashing the chest flesh since the days of those oh-so-noughties Hollyoaks Hunks calendars.
So, toss Will a cowboy hat and .... job done. They’ll be no blue Thunderbird driving off a cliff. But he will drive fans’ heartrates through the roof.
