Strictly - shall you?

Still trying to work out what all the blue stuff at the start was all about. Its all getting increasingly boring. Len appeared to have a bit of a spat. Lighten up, people, its only telly not the holy grail!

Well, I am shocked Pixie and Trent have gone.

I think they were so good they made every performance look easy but it was always filled with moves on the female part, meaning the celebrity had to show their capabilities.

The judges had commented on Simon using 'clicks of the fingers' to hide his sometimes poor hand shape. Len you were wrong on this one!

I think it is fair to say that every dancer left would/could have been in the finals in past contests but Pixie was consistently good and the two of them even won the Waltz Off.

I wonder if the newspaper report swayed some voters too.

Got to the stage of recording it now and then skipping all the nonsense like the judges prancing in and silly chit chat and just watching the dances and points. Do the same on Sunday. It has got very same-y and boring.

What newspaper report?

I agree Whitewave I too try to miss all the dross, especially Tess who says mostly the same things every week such as

'Come on over my darlings'
'they put everything they had into that dance'

I say bring back Katie Boyle, not literally if she is dead.
I remember the time when presenters could actually present, or am I just imagining better days ?

I long to see presenters who have any knowledge of the subject they are presenting.

You are so right Deedaa

To name but a few......

Claire Balding.

Brucie - before he threw in the towel.

Adam Henson.

Gary Lineker and most sports presenters sports presenters.

Ruth Goodman

Dan Snow

Sara Beeny, Kirstie Allsopp, Phil Spencer

The Top Gear Trio

David Dimbleby

Jeremy Paxman

Andrew Marr

Oh and not forgetting David Attenborough.

Sandi Toksvig
Nicholas Parsons
John Bercow
Jo Brand
Dennis Skinner
Andrew Mitchell
Fiona Bruce
Boris Johnson
Sue Barker
Angela Rippon

Well, that's the formation dancing team sorted out!

Angela Rippon could host Strictly and she looks good for her age.

Boris Johnson, now that would be fun, can you imagine him with Olas' costumes,,,,,,,,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Am trying to imagine Jeremy Clarkson in a Strictly scenario!

Perhaps they could have a weekly guest presenter the way they do with Have I Got News for You, could really brighten up the show.

I'd say that Tess has got stale now. She's been doing Strictly for too long. Why not make Darcy the presenter and take on Karen Hardy as a judge - she would carry more authority than most.

I con't suppose Beethoven knew he was writing music for an Argentine tango! However, the 5th symphony worked very well for those dance moves. What an original idea!

4 x 10 = wow

Caroline to win...Please!!!

I think that after this week`s showing, Jake could be leaving.

I loved Frankie's rumba. Kevin is a very clever choreographer.

My prediction. Jake to go tonight. Caroline to win.

I'm hoping that Mark Wright is shysals son as I think he might win!

Why can't my hair ever look lovely like Frankie's. Her hairdresser should get an award. I would like her to win.

Can I have a rant here? O.K. so I know I am getting old, and perhaps a bit crotchety, but do they have to SCREAM at the beginning of Strictly, and then almost continuously? I sometimes wonder if it is the audience or 'canned' Whatever it is, it really spoils the programme for me, which I quite enjoy otherwise.

I hate it when the audience scream and clap when the 'pro dancers' do quite basic dance steps during the sunday evening guest acts, I wish they would just shut up, i think it is quite insulting to the guests.
