Hello lovely readers,
After a great deal of consideration, Rad and I have decided that we won't be blogging Strictly Come Dancing this year. We've been writing these blogs for over a decade now and while we've had a great time doing it (and hopefully entertained some of you in the process), we've reached a point where we're not sure how much we have left to say about celebrities attempting to perform ballroom and latin dances. Plus, writing this blog is a fairly significant time commitment for both of us, and we're just finding it increasingly hard to fit it into our lives.
We'd like to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for reading these blogs and giving us a reason to carry on for as long as we did. We'll still be watching the show and tweeting along, so those of you who still care what we think about the show are always welcome to follow us and interact with us on Twitter (and I can't speak for Rad, but most of my recaps over the last few years have just ended up being slightly longer versions of my tweets from during the live show anyway). [I'm rubbish on Twitter since I fucked up my arms but I'll do my best - Rad]
Thanks for being an incredibly loyal and supportive bunch - it really does mean a lot to us that people bothered to read our entirely unqualified thoughts on dancing every week for all this time.
Everything that Steve said is true from me, too. Plus I might be having a mild tantrum at Anton replacing Bruno. It's been a lot of fun doing these recaps and you guys have always been insightful and entertaining in the comments. Although I'm a bit sad not to be recapping this year, I won't miss Dragon mangling the names of all the new pro dancers, or trying to think of things to say about a boring Wednesday It Takes Two episode six weeks in.
*Brucie comes on to sweep us off the stage a la McFly*
Right, that's us then.
And remember.... Keeeep [snarking at] Dancing!
