Fan Of Bruce Forsyth?
Hi
Are you a big Bruce Forsyth fan? If so we'd like to hear from you. We're producing a documentary and are particularly keen to make contact with fans who've grown up watching Bruce since he first hit our screens at the London Palladium. Please contact: dave.nath@rdftelevision.com thanks. |

How about making a programme on why people think he shouldn't be hosting Strictly any more because he's past it?
Yes I remember him when he started with Sunday Night at the London Palladium (yes I am that old) and he was fun then and the Generation Game was required viewing in our house, but he should have retired gracefully a few years ago. I get very cross at the thought of having to watch him again this season and just hope and pray that the PTB finally see some sense and get a professional presenter in. |

Well done Force Ten... I would like to have said that but couldnt think of a succinct way to put it.
Yes he was good in the 80s and yes I remember the Generation Game... (cant remember too far back before then) and although I admire him for his longevity in the entertainment industry, my admiration is gradually getting chipped away by STILL having to watch him on a Saturday night, the jokes are terrible (what jokes?!) and almost every time he opens his mouth I want to cringe (behind the sofa). And I was a fan....... |

I vaguely remember when he was good (I'm 19 now, so we're talking a decade ago at least) but he should definitely have retired gracefully a few years ago.
Strictly is something he would have been very good at 20 years ago, but the time has come for a fresh face at the helm, one who can actually tell relevant jokes, get the professional dancers' names right and get the audience to laugh without prompting them to do so. |

I'm pretty much with Sara and Force Ten on this subject. I remember Brucie from the Palladium, and The Generation Game was a 'must view' for us as well as a family, but last year, as well as his usual limp gags and struggles with the autocue, I felt that Brucie was somewhat ill-tempered at times and irritatingly inconsistent with his attitude, particularly towards the judges.
Time for a change imo... |

I totally agree with you. |
