Hi does anybody know if strictly come dancing and x factor are going to clash this year. i really hope not becuase i love watching both shows?

Tv chiefs say they are not going to clash but I think it will be inveitable at some point that there will be an overlap unless BBC pull the show to a very early slot like 5pm.

Can I ask why you say it is inevitable there will be some clash?

I think they managed it last year without a clash didn't they? There may have been one of about 10 minutes but the X Factor seems to take about 20 minutes for anything to actually happen. I did read somewhere that they were trying to make it so they don't clash though which is good

I guess because I have read that x factor will be a whopping three hours at some point, cannot see how the end of strictly wont clash with the start of x factor, although watching x factor without a recording device must be hard work due to the vast amount of padding and ads.

Well, on eof the celebs is friends with Gary Barlow and said that he'd also be watching the show... so....
