Strictly - shall you?

This last little exchange has brought a to my face! I love gn.

Here you are Lona.

Did I say it was a male love child?

shysal after looking at your profile pics, I want to know why we haven't been offered any ?

You may see me in the audience

Great - now we'll all be scanning the audience for a female looking adoringly at one of the male contestants instead of paying attention to the dancing

Nor me ruby!

sal we are on to you!

ruby not really, self-adoring is all I see when (and if) I watch him, which I try to avoid. Of course it takes all sorts.

Shysal beware Kitty and I are the Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson of Gransnet.

From your fab photos on your profile we will be looking for someone in the audience who is covered in cat hairs, maybe a badger hair or two, plus a pair of secateurs on their lap having done a quick bit of pruning of that gorgeous garden of yours before leaving.

We will be there with our magnifying glasses and funny hats.

For all you Greg Wallace lovers, he is with a woman 21 years his junior. He is 49 years old and she then is 28. Love him a bit more now?

I have loved Bruce over the years in his Generation Game, Play your cards right, etc., but I do think it is time he hung up his dancing shoes. He missed a couple of episodes last year from being ill and didn't do the Sunday show, obviously feeling it now. He is, however, doing a Christmas special of Strictly so he has not gone down yet without a fight.

Kate and Kitty, I am sworn to secrecy. You may see me in the audience - oh no, you don't know what I look like!

So our suspicions may have been confirmed Kitty

I`m with you Nvella can`t stand Bruce Forsyth never could, Claudia and Tess work well together I shall be watching - and I like Judy Murray

I said that ^^ and sal didn't deny it Kate

Shysal yesterday at 15.21 you mentioned your SCD love child, now I hope it isn't Tim Wonacott but of course you are far too young to be his mum.

My guess for Anton would be Judy Murray, or possibly Alison Hammond.
I am watching James Jordan on Celebrity Big Brother ( ), he is not coming across at all well!

Any bets on which no-hoper will be assigned to poor old Anton this year?

That does irritate me, I would like to see more of Anton (how can you not smile at that grin of his!) but he does seem to be given the no-hopers. Mind you, with the awful James Jordan out of the picture, maybe Anton will be promoted!

With regard to the presenters, I would replace Tess Daly (she always seems ill-at-ease to me and not funny at all (even though she laughs at her own unfunny comments)) but am happy with Claudia presenting the show; does it need two presenters?

What is it that Greg Wallace has that makes the BBC think him an ideal candidate for anything? Bald, fat, self-adoring, fronts a cookery show, - not sure if he can cook, and now he is going to be prancing around on our screens (if we watch) Ugh!

I couldn't agree with that more.

Actually Printmiss Greg Wallace, who I don't like either, has lost a bit of weight and isn't as porky looking as he was.

I wouldn't want him getting his sticky mits on me on the dance floor.

I do that with lots of programmes kitty. I fast forward the ads and the boring bits.

I would have had Greg W down as a Millwall supporter

Since DD came to live here we have to watch XFactor but we only watch after it has started so we can fast forward through the ads!

I don't really watch Strictly. I sometimes have a look on the iplayer. My DH won't tolerate 'celebrities' in any way, shape or form.

I cannot bear Greg Wallace- DH says he's a Milwall supporter apparently that speaks volumes! Like Tim W though - he should be fun and very gentlemanly. Looking forward to Mrs Murray berating the judges. Saturday evening TV is dire - I wouldn't watch X Factor or anything like it at gunpoint! We usually find a film that is after DH has had his weekly dose of Dad's Army which makes him laugh like a drain.

What is it that Greg Wallace has that makes the BBC think him an ideal candidate for anything? Bald, fat, self-adoring, fronts a cookery show, - not sure if he can cook, and now he is going to be prancing around on our screens (if we watch) Ugh! Quite looking forward to Tim, though, I think he always seems good for a laugh, and knowledgeable about the show he fronts.

I loathed Bruce Forsyth and thought the shows Claudia and Tess did were really good but then I love Claudia Winkelman - fringe and all.

Who are these people?

I will miss Bruce something awful, and cannot ABIDE Claudia Winkelman, can just about put up with Tess Daly, but I`ll still be watching, I love the music, the judges (apart from Darcy!), and the gorgeous clothes. Now Jake Wood, no way is he gorgeous, he can`t help his looks, bless him, but they`re not exactly heart stopping!
