It hasn't spoilt SCD for me, so long as he doesn't win.
He is a no mark for me cos I don't watch the trash tv he inhabits.

Ricky Whittle and his 7 months training has ruined this years SCD

I hadn't heard of Natalie before the show started (where was she being talked about?). I also don't find her infectious at all - just annoying. There are plenty of quieter celebs (think Flavia, Matt) who have done very well with their partners, so I don't think Hayley lost out in that respect.”

My point I was making was in reply to someone saying that Natalie would be Rickys downfall as she is too ambitious ect was .....that I felt this would only help him rather than do him harm.I think it works both ways also,a quieter pro like Matt.C or Flavia who are amazing dancers need a celeb with a big personality or, a great dancer someone with natural rhythm. As they are not big personalities themselves if the celebs dancing is a bit weak first week they need to work out their strengths and play on them....and as we have seen when they get middle of the road celebs they go by unoticied.We have Matt.C gone and Flavia in the bottom 2 first week the past two years.Unfortunately this is as much a personality contest as it is a dancing contest and i think if one half of the couple has drive and a big personality it helps.I think Natalie does well to shine alongside Ricky it seems she has made it all about both of them and not just all about one half......all i know is she has made an amzing impact and everyone is talking about her and Ricky and that cant be bad.
