And got accused of being a troll for his trouble as I remember. I think those 'in the know' have been burnt once too often to divulge info publicly on this forum.

I don't think Aunty Pat is a troll - or I hope she isn't 'cos she sounds very sweet

That was because he refused to divulge his source despite people asking reasonably. It was only when someone else vouched for him last year could his claims be accepted as legitimate.

Yes, but in that situation she would not be allowed to dance a farewell dance either. I get that the BBC might forbid her to dance and can understand why, but I was responding to someone who said they thought she would not compete, but still dance the Tango as a farewell dance. Surely if she cannot compete, whether it be her decision or the BBC's, she cannot do a farewell dance either.
I would have thought that a farewell dance is not the same as competing and so not governed by the rules?

The only reason the BBC would prevent them dancing is liability for any further damage to her knee. That wouldn't change if it was just a farewell dance.

Whether they're dancing in "farewell" or "competition", they're being permitted to do a harmful activity by the BBC. I can't imagine them being treated differently.

We get your message - although, quite clearly many of us have been surprised by the cynicism and lack of sympathy you have shown toward Jade: particularly as we took on board your support of non dancer Craig K.

Had Jade been able to continue dancing - and had she won, would her victory have been more tainted than that of Craig had he beaten the odds?

I realise of course that your answer will be influenced by the amount of money invested in the betting shop.
