Especially on ITT. Don't think I can take any more of Chris going on about Mrs Jordan and Yea Baby, nor Craig moaning about his marks, nor even Natalie's 'I'm loving it' . She must have made a deliberate decision to be extra positive but even when its repeated for the umpteen time can get annoying and boring.

As much as I love Ricky Whittle, every dance seems to be "quick".

Yes and whilst I love her to bits, Claudia needs to stop telling us how every dance is difficult.

Cant agree with you about Chris and Ola I love them but want to see it reflected on the dance floor too now. However I can conceed that it might get boring if you dont like them.

Yes if I hear Craig tell us how much he's enjoying it and how much he wants to get to Blackpool one more time, with that morose face and that monotone voice.....

And thats before I even have to start thinking about his dreadful dancing, his stunned mullet face, and his truly bizarre belief that he's doing quite well....

You forgot about the birthday.

I'm probably thick but it just dawned on me that the poor lad has been saddled with a birthday on Halloween of all days

I wonder if all this talk of it is leading up to something (God knows what) a bit different in honour of the event.
I don't know of any other celeb or pro who has made such a fuss about theirs.
(Although it might just be the equivalent of Tom's wedding last year)

Scarily for all the Astrologers, it also makes him the same Star Sign as Matthew Cutler

"Yeah, baby!" wiil NEVER get old. I love them!!!

Craig went up in my opinion on ITT this week when he said the Waltz was one of the easier dances and Natalie said she was fed up with talking about nerves she was going to stop! It was like a breath of fresh air!

I think they spend so much time in each other company learning to dance there isn't much else to say to be honest.

I'm just hoping Jade doesn't have the Jive next week.

I don't think I'm ready for a whole week of "The Jive's not for tall people y'know?"

As I've said elsewhere and the problem will get worse next year if nothing changes, is the so called "celebrities" aren't as interesting this year.
Of those who participated, I knew of Martina Hingis, Richard Dunwoody, Jade Johnson, Joe Calzahgi and Phil Tufnell, because of their sporting association. Of the rest I only knew Linda Bellingham, probabably because I don't watch any kind of soap, morning magazine type programmes or programmes like Crimewatch.

Anyone with a real "high profile" won't be interested in tying themselves up for sixteen weeks on the money the BBC offer them and more importantly won't be too keen on putting in the level of training required to be successful.
So stopping short of saying they're all boring (though some are), with a series as long as it is now there's bound to be a lot of repetition and with so many people in it everything each of them say is likely to be repeated by themselves and someone else at some time.

Agreed!

Personally I think 'Yeh Baby' is getting old, but I LOL'd when Ola said 'Oh dear baby' the other week

But 'not in a bad way!'

I know its ridiculous isn't it

I mean Matthew Cutler is so bad at the jive they should just ban tall people from doing it

Matthew Cutler's birthday was yesterday the 30th.




They are all coming up with the same soundbytes week in week out ..... sometimes I want to throw my shoe at the telly.

Erm, I know - that's why I said they had the same starsign?
