December has arrived so quickly! We hope you're keeping up with opening your advent calendars as well as you're keeping up with Strictly Come Dancing It Takes Two!
On Monday 26th November we started week 9 of It Takes Two and said goodbye to Victoria and Brendan
You found it sad to see them go. StrictlyProFans wrote that "the best bits are so lovely. I'm all teary" while Mart H wrote "love Victoria Pendleton!!!" We'll certainly miss team KiwiGB.
Ian tried out the Louis leg lift (although he might need a few more training sessions... what do you think?)
Who else agrees with Aimee Kerr's comment that "Waite's Wednesday Warm up AKA the best part of the week." It's very much up there on the list of weekly highlights.
Just before our midweek dose of Ian, we revealed the Strictly Christmas Special for 2012. You can read all the celebs and pro dancers involved by clicking here.
We had so many messages about the reveal of the Christmas celebs! Hannah McGahan and ezz LOVE the fact that JB from JLS is dancing with pro dancer Ola Jordan. Alan Dorey is already backing Fabrice Muamba and Helen Skelton while Jamie Scott just sent in "HANCOCK!" so we think he might be happy at Sheila joining the Christmas Strictly family.
In week 9 we also had a Friday Panel to rival all others
Lottie Tomlin loved Miranda and Alfie Boe being on the It Takes Two sofa while Susie Sharples thought the panel was "fab-u-lous darrlings."
Molly, aged 8, sent in some dress designs that Julian MacDonald and Zoe Ball thought were amazing! They particularly liked the matching shoes. Thank you very much for these.
Ada sent in a brilliant picture for Team Pasherley. A huge thanks from Kimberley and Pasha for this great drawing.
And finally, you've already started getting ready for scoring the nation as it gets even more dancing crazy in time for the final. We had this paddle design sent in from riotweddinghair
We love reading through all your comments, sent in to the official BBC blog, Strictly Facebook and Twitter feeds. We've lost count the amount of times we've had to refrain from LOL-ing in studio while the live show is taking place just metres away.
Keep them coming and remember to look out for our question requests for the It Takes Two guests.
See you during the week for more It Takes Two action! BBC Two, 6.30pm
