that is so funny.

I think you will find that Bendy is the Blue Room.

God forbid anyone be normal outside of the world of Strictly!

*rolls eyes*

EVERYONE has a nasty side to them, I can be a right cow if I want to be, no-one is immune and I don't pretend that Anton is otherwise.

However, whenever I have met him at events, he has been absolutely lovely. And everyone else who I know who has also met him have also all had fantastic times meeting him and until i experience otherwise, I am going to remain a fan.

Both he and Erin are wonderful to their fans and are UNBELIEVABLY generous with both their time and affection, no matter what the situation. If he is as unpleasant as some try to say he is, surely he wouldn't bother.

Also, surely his past partners and others who have encountered him would also have said something if he was horrible, but none of them have-they have all been very complimentary. Erin surely wouldn't be as fond of him as she is either!

As for the 'not being able to do Latin' argument, YAWN, change the bl**dy record!

Deleted. two can play at that game:yawn:

I watched that too and don't remember anything like that?

There is no doubt that he takes teaching seriously, but that's not surprising imho. He can't be 'in character' all the time, but from what I've seen and heard he's a genuinely nice guy. A bit Marmite though I guess.

Erm, ej, I wasn't aiming at you in the first place. At which point did I quote your post?

Every time I've met Anton he's been a genuinely nice and easy to get along with guy. I think he just takes it seriously, and doesn't like it if people just mess about and don't try. He did get mad at one point with a girl who was being a sulky brat and just putting no effort in, but I think its frustration of her just wasting everyone's time.

I think Anton's great and I am very pleased to see him with Laila as they have tended to give him the older ladies in the past. Nothing wrong with that, but I reckon that if she dances as good as she looks he may be in with a chance!

Explains it. The vitriol that is spouted there about Anton is laced with pure venom! Pretty much the reason I left it.

You don't remember him shouting at a girl telling her to get on with it in a real nasty way and the poor girl was in tears.
