I would prefer it if they brought back the live results show on a Saturday together with a dance off. I think the group/ professional dances and celebrity guest part were recorded whilst it is off air during Casualty (it must have been done like this before as one year Robbie Williams was on the SCD Saturday results show and X Factor on the same evening!!)

The dance off should be brought back as the public vote is becoming a popularity contest whereby the judges could bring a bit of dance ability if they judge after the dance off!

With regard to other programmes being recorded where they were supposed to be live ... you only have to watch the local news on ITV and ITV 1 HD. Our local news (Meridian) is split over more than one geographical area so the presenter is reading out the local news for the Kent/Sussex area (on HD) at the same time as reading the Hampshire/Dorset news (non HD)! Same for the weather!!

Except that people would then be back to complaining that the judges are saving their favourites rather than what the viewer perceives to be the better dancer, or that the wishes of the voting public are being ignored.

To be fair to this series, there has been more accord between the judges and the voting public than for years - maybe all the way back to series 2?

The only difference between the top 7 on the judges leaderboard in week one and the top 7 we actually had on Saturday was that Robbie (week one 8th place) was exchanged for Rory (week one, 7th place) and that was the only difference.

Yes, Holly has been in the bottom 2 twice - but she has been kept by the combined votes - if she had been kept twice in a dance off I think she would be at the beginning of a backlash There have been no big shocks (however much they try to whip up the Lulu leaving shokka) and the 4 couples who have been variously top of the leaderboard have never had a sniff of the bottom 2.

Be interesting to see if it continues at the pointy end of things.

Call me naive but i never knew this, is it true? All along i thought the sunday results show was live??
Yes, and you can find out the result of who went out (on a Saturday night before the aired Sunday show) right here on this Digital Spy SCD forum.
I thought everyone knew that it wasn't live, you can tell when you look at the same dressed audience members from a Sat to a Sun (which obv them means it's just a Sat show split into two segments).

I guess the people that think the show is recorded on a sunday are the same people that get excited about winning the Nigerian Lottery .

What surprised me is people claiming Robbie got sympathy votes If they do not realise voting closes no later than the end of Merlin what hope is there

Let's just hope people realise that the footage they saw tonight of happy Robbie was filmed before his friend died. For the first time, in a way I was glad it wasn't live for Robbie's sake.
My Hubby said to me just before the results show " I hope the BBC say something about it being reccorded ".... as ( we now know ) there are those who don't realise it isn't live and will see Robbie laughing and joking, when in fact I'm sure he was at home devastated

The whole results programe has seemed pretty pointless since they did away with the dance off. It is about 27 minutes of padding the programe out and 3 minutes of results

So the BBC would have to book the studio, camera lighting and sound crews, production team etc for an additional day, plus rehearsals, plus site services, plus audience, all for 30 mins or so. I wonder how much extra that would cost?
They did the dance off before.....

I hardly take any notice of the audience members, i watch the dancers.....

Didnt anyone else think the sunday results show was recorded then too??

I can see why they have the results show on Sunday. My 10 yr old prefers it as he can see the show, he hates it on DOI when he has to go to bed before the skate off and we often have 'words'

However I hate the pretence that it is held on a Sunday. The 'on last night's show' bit I can just about cope with without too much :yawn: as from the viewer's persepctive it is technically true but when Claudia actually acts like she was at home the night before watching it on TV I can't suspend disbelief anymore as that is a downright lie It's amusing how the presenters and judges changes outfits yet the pros in the set pieces and audience clearly are in the same place in the same outfits. Beeb can't seem to decide how far to take the charade.

The whole Robbie Savage thing though made me wonder if it will really come unstuck one day if an unforeseen tragedy/event/illness took place to one of the major players or significant audience member between filming on Saturday and showing on Sunday
I hadn't considered it from the youngsters' pov and so can see a Sunday show is a good idea. But I agree with you in hating the pretence.

As for Gary Speed's death, that thought crossed my mind too. The whole show would have to be dropped (unthinkable) or the family of the deceased bulldozed into agreeing with transmission (unforgivable).

Forgot to add that I thought the classic this weekend was making Erin and Anton turn up a day early in their Sunday night dance clothes and hang around behind Tess being ignored.

All because they didn't have enough bodies because of the changing for the Swingathon!

I think that you'll find that the problem (if indeed there is one or if it can be described as such) arose when the late Saturday live results show was not being watched by anywhere near the numbers as watched the main programme, and that some had complained that it was on too late for their younger children (and others who were going out) to watch. Any padding has nothing to do with Bruce not being there (after all, he would be doing precisely what Tess is doing now, and indeed has done so a few years ago).

And now, the Sunday show is as popular, if not more so, as the main programme. Hence, more people watching means more people go away satisfied.


And of course, I recall back in the 60's and 70's programmes such as Christmas Night With The Stars where the presenters pretended that they were sat in their lounge complete with log fire on Christmas Night (when in fact the programme had been recorded weeks if not months earlier).

Such is the make-believe world of television.


As for some of the costume changes, perhaps after a two-hour live programme underneath the studio lights, they might need a change of clothing, and maybe others around them might appreciate it as well
Exactly! Your entire post is spot on as far as I'm concerned. There was a huge fuss made the first time they did the Sunday night show, with many people saying the BBC were 'cheating' them in some way. It's just TV.

On a similar note, Jools Holland's Hootananny (spelling?) isn't live on New Year's Eve. About ten years ago, David Grey was on it, but I know for a fact he was in Dorset at the time because he and some friends had rented a holiday cottage owned by someone I know. So the big countdown to midnight and the new year is all bull.

Now that completey befuddled my friend who was convinced all these slebs and music stars from far and wide flocked to TV centre for their New Year jollies until one act was simultaneously on ITV as well

Me, my bubble burst much earlier in life when I heard that Slade recorded their Christmas hit in an August heat wave

Excellent post - have been meaning to post something along these lines whenever yet another post bleating about the evil invention that is the sunday show appears on the forum.

Exactly! Your entire post is spot on as far as I'm concerned. There was a huge fuss made the first time they did the Sunday night show, with many people saying the BBC were 'cheating' them in some way. It's just TV.
Never ceases to make me laugh...

My mother once asked me why VIPs gave up their new year's eve to perform on Jools. Breaking the news to her felt like telling a child santa isn't real...

Absolutely right. I far preferred it later on a Saturday night, and with a dance off. I wouldn't mind quite so much if the padding was a nice warm 15 tog but I think it's generally about 4.

Why do you think it's a swizz?
I love the word swizz. When I was a little girl my Mum always used to say the presents in Father Christmas's grotto were a 'swizz' ! Ever since then, and it's many years ago, anything we thought would be good but turned out to be disappointing has always been a swizz, in our family.

Awwwww bless . I wouldn't be surprised if the Hootananny was recorded in the summer too, but I think it's about October time. (I could be completely wrong)
