Is anyone watching this? I’ve switched on now and then as like the camp chats. There is one guy in, never heard of him, however don't know most of them, who seems of very fragile mental health.

And yes ANNIE I,m a republican it's not a disease just common sense

Paddyann54 why must you turn a thread discussing a tv
programme into hate filled bile ?

And also, as this is a celebrity thread, with a little Strictly input, it should be pointed out that dancers don't have to be "lithe". Ok, maybe if you want to be a graceful ballet dancer, but other genres of dance require you to be strong firstly, and also liberating in your movements. I thought Oti was a great teacher of the rumba!

So much for 'the sisterhood', why are we tearing other women down? sad

Agree there are lots of spouses of well known people who wouldn’t be in the position they are in without the marriage, such as various Princesses, Queens etc. Coleen, met Wayne at school and was only 16 in her school uniform when she was being chased by photographers. The documentary about her showed she is an intelligent kind person who puts her family first. Wayne maybe talented footballer, but she is the brains.

I am curious, why was she photographed aged 16, was Wayne Rooney a top football player aged 17 ?

Yes, Wayne was 17. I think it was Everton he played for??
Footballers can sign professional contracts at 16 years. A lot of top notch clubs will already have an idea of who they want to sign up from Junior Level teams.

Kate1949 Tue 26-Nov-24 17:04:06

Yes Annie. He played his first game for England when he was 17.

Anniebach Tue 26-Nov-24 17:17:29

Thank you, I know nothing of football, went to one match 60 years ago and believed my cousin when he told me - the linesmen were counting the crowd watching!

Kate1949 Tue 26-Nov-24 17:29:50

I'm married to a football fanatic!

NotAGran55 Tue 26-Nov-24 17:30:12

Wayne Rooney is a footballing legend. Youngest scorer in history for England at 17 and the youngest goal scorer in the Euro’s at 18. The pressure on him was immense from such a young age, and he’s a very lucky man to have Colleen by his side.

Aveline Tue 26-Nov-24 17:37:18

So why not have Wayne Rooney on the programme then? Oh wait, he doesn't need the publicity!
Re the 'sisterhood'- I like Jane and GK and Maura I just don't subscribe to the 'Colleen is great' mantra.

Wayne Rooney is the manager of Plymouth Argyll football club, it is mid season and he couldn’t get time off.

Yes, he's often on Devon news. Not doing amazingly, his team I mean! 😔

Kate1949 Tue 26-Nov-24 17:56:32

I can't stand Jane More.

Kate1949 Tue 26-Nov-24 17:58:18

Wayne has saud he'd love to go on but hasnt been asked. No doubt he'll be there if he can get time off from the day job.

Dean is getting better at the trials, mind has had lots of practice!
It's entertaing to watch.
Though I think it would be interesting to let other personalities come through.

Allsorts Tue 26-Nov-24 19:12:26

Paddyann, you seem to look down on a lot of people without knowing them. Kate was not a bad smell hanging around William, as you so eloquently put it, why say a good word when you can use a bad one? They love each other it shows in every gesture, Colleen the same. Neither are pathetic man trapping people, they are intelligent and hardworking people. Behind most men is a good woman and vis versa, what's bad about that?
Otti regardless of her build, is a genuine person and carer.
I would like to know when the Rev actually has time to be a Rev, he's so interested in himself and his achievements and appearing on every tv or radio show he can. Don't believe him.

Aveline Tue 26-Nov-24 19:29:21

I think he said something that implied that he's not currently working as a reverend. He's obviously still religious though which is a nice change these days. His chats with GK are interesting.
Re Wayne Rooney I know he's still playing!! He actually does a recognisable job unlike his wife !! (Runs to hide from outraged grans grin)

GrannyGravy13 Tue 26-Nov-24 19:36:35

Since when has being an author and columnist not a recognisable job?

At the same time as raising four boys 🤷‍♀️
