    If James as xenophobic as you say he is, then why did he marry Ola who is Polish ?

    maybe he fancied 'educating' the little peasant girl ? :p

    I don't think James meant anything other than explaining to Gary a term he had used in case Gary didn't understand.

    Not every action, or word spoken by a HM towards Gary needs to be dissected and scrutinised.

    "The shit has hit the fan". I'm pretty sure that's used in other countries too, James!

    How many more times is he going to say this?

    Ola sometimes must want to say adios!

    Agree OP. He is so condescending.

    The things he comes out with — "It's not like I'm gay or anything"; "I wouldn't say a different level, I'd say a different field . . . in the dance world I'm like the Brad Pitt" — are so reminiscent of David Brent that I can no longer take him seriously as villain. He even said "Yeah?" mid-sentence last night.

    In England we say for God's sake come out of the cupboard man, you're clearly in pain and it's not good for you or anyone around you.



    It's such an American turn of vulgarity, the whole shit/fan interface imagery, what an idiot. Perhaps he was confused by the realisation that he doesn't have any fans waiting for him, only shit.

    I know, he is getting very cringey.

    As James' dance partners have mostly not been British and Ola spoke no English when she came here so James taught her the language, he has probably got into the habit of saying, "In England we say...." rather than saying, "You've got that wrong, you have to say...."
    Gary has taken offense when hearing British idioms and seems to hate being he is wrong, I think "In England/Britain we say....." is a kinder option.

    I thought it was an American thing, hopefully Gary was taking the pi$$ out of him when he said Sheep hitting the fan

    Lord. He simply said he saw that on a t-shirt in Australia, illustrated, and thought it was funny.

    Would you care to list these times when you claim that Gary has "taken offense" upon hearing British idioms?

    He also blamed his condescending tone on "the foreigners".

    Has he never seen "Airplane" ? ;)

    The first time I ever heard the expression was in 'Airplane'.
