Tumble BBC 1

Will anyone be watching this when it's starts in just over a week??

 

[coach1234]

Will be watching it but don't know for how long, the idea is great but it's not gymnastics it the circus! When I heard there was going to be a gymnastics version of strictly I was thinking that surly they wouldn't be able to get a celebrity who has never done gymnastics to do what our girls do and have taken years to achieve it,


hmmm just not sure about this one......

 

[homer]

Yes we will be watching, my son is very excited! I have reservations though!!!

 

[Gymbee06]

I do thin it might be more circus based than actual gymnastics

 

[Rapunzel]

I'm looking forward to it to be honest. I don't think the celebs will achieve high level skills.
I really enjoyed Splash. I think it will highlight the mental strength that goes into gymnastics.

Well ? What did we think ? Can't believe Peter Duncan is 60 ! P&F's fave was H, cause he did "real gym" - loved the boys playtime at the end.

 

[Faith]

Not enough leotards for DD2 , therefore they're not proper gymnasts...

 

[floppycat]

Terrible presenter, we were not impressed.

 

[Iwannabemargo]

I'm not a fan of Alex Jones

 

[Faith]

It's basically strictly with cartwheels ...

 

[stillgotmyleotard]

Ridicule and tosh. Cringe-fodder. Yuk.

 

[Jenny]

Terrible presenter, we were not impressed.

I can't stand the presenter either.

 

[stillgotmyleotard]

The gymnastics community groaned when she called her Beth Tweedle. In fact, so did most of the country. Cluelessness personified.

I think I am going to have some parental expectations to manage when we take in a new batch of beginner rec kids in September if they think they are going to be able to do back tucks in 6 weeks!

And they are going to be very disappointed when they find out the gym doesn't have a hoop!

 

[Gymbee06]

We had someone ask last week if we had a hoop!!

 

[Iwannabemargo]

how wide is that beam ? Really makes our girls look good

My DD was laughing....saying it was not full height (for Sarah at least). I cringed the whole way through her routine. On the plus side, the winning vault was pretty good for a beginner.

 

[Jenny]

That beam was stupid. Whole program is just silly.

 

[Iwannabemargo]

Say what you feel now @Jenny let it out
