    At least there was no whooping and hollering from the crowd during it. That made a pleasant change.

    They were one of the best bands around, once upon a time.

    They had a whole Darko Rundek/CARGO Orkestar, mid-European, Parisian, mariachi -- ahhh, throw everything in -- vibe going on. I loved 'em. But then I love Darko Rundek. Good direction for them to take. Suits the irony they always carried.

    What is it thirty years and never sung a note? They are to music what Ben is to dancing.

    Never really got them, but Suggs seems alright.
    Plus Chris Eubank as a guest presenter on Top of the Pops introducing Suggs and Cecilia, the thought of it still makes me laugh.

    I've always liked ska and two tone so I did like the song once I'd picked it up. It's no surprise to anyone that Suggs can no long sing, surely?

    Can they not get some decent singers/bands on Strictly?

    Who's on next week? Bob the Builder?

    I love Madness, they're fantastic. It's not about being a 'great' singer - it's about the act, which is dark and mysterious, like watching a mafia family from Islington, you dare not look away!! You either get them, or you don't. I do.

    Yes, I think that was contrived by the producers.

    BIB - that was classic! I believe it was also at number 6, which was even better :D

    Love Madness :D
