It's not 14 couples - it's 14 dancers (7 couples). The people on are all those doing the live tour and they will be showing off the group dance.

Could it be promoting the strictly live tour 2014 on the OS tonight with the group dance? People might be interested in it, I reckon.

I didn't listen to Alex properly ... she did say the cast of strictly come dancing, didn't mention which year though. I was thinking why Matt and Alex wouldn't join them cos they were the cast of 2010 and 2011.

Anyway how could I forget Matt and Aliona's winning the strictly live tour in 2011? The Magical moments of the magical pair in 2011:

Evening.

It's been a good week as it's been the return of Matt And he's looked very fine everyday, including a waistcoat, and leaving off the layers, hurrah!

Thank you SkyBlue for picking out some glorious phawtaws from KK's picspam. What a handsome lad! Hope Team B had a great Christmas and New Year - Matt is very tiggery on his return so I assume they did!

Got to catch up with some of yesterday's TT - the new studios are working out well and seems to have given Matt and Alex extra enthusiasm!

Just clearing rooms ahead of tomorrow (replacement windows )and it's been a job and a half. Looking forward to half-an-hour's relaxation with Matt to revive my spirits

Well that all went wrong!

Wanted to repost some pics but DS didn't want to play ball

Maybe I'll just post one of my favourites...

Isn't that just lovely!

Only half-an-hour to go til the OS. Shame there's no Mattage on CF so thank goodness we've had 2½ hours of him this week

DS didn't let me post the pics from tonight OS!
I can post the link to the album but not to post cos you won't get view on the ad-free site.

Edit: So I post these awesome pics of Matt (and Aliona) instead!

Great blue trews he was wearing outside at the start of the show shame he didn't have a little waltz round with Alex
Matt had found a jacket to wear, still looking fabulous. Had some fun with Craig

Nice to see some of the strictly guys and girls in the studio all dressed up, lovely dance by them a the end of the show.

Good luck with the window replacement star, hope the weather stays dry.

Morning all. The One Show has been doing fabulously in the ratings this week! . Just as a reminder - before Christmas it was getting about 4m viewers and a 20% audience share, and then <4m and about 17-18% share on Wednesday. This is what's happened this week:

Mon - 5.03m (22% share)
Tue - 4.71m (22% share)
Wed - 4.63m (21% share)
Thu - 4.69m (22% share)


The BBC are probably going to be very happy right now - particularly with that Wednesday rating

He certainly had, he could have been beardy within next few days. Wonder how many days he needs to get that amount.

In that week, Matt and Aliona had a photoshoot for Sunday Mirror Celebs magazine cover story and the interview so we have had the actions of the day and training footage in one week.

Matt obviously looking v nervous before the dance

Matt: Even though we were ‘eeeeeeee’ smiling away last week, all I was thinking about was, right, just hit that lift.

Matt: A bit weird to be honest with you… when you have to sort of do the Darcy. (And he broke the fork!! By accident of course but he can be a little bit clumsy sometimes - remember he broke the soundman’s broom mic pole thing when he swung the golf while filming CF Famous Five episode!)

Matt and Aliona on The Sunday Mirror 14 November 2010
http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/...1.jpg~original (This is the similar look when he attended Ben Di Lisi’s fashion show with Zoe and Connie when he was on BP)

Some favourite lines abstracted from the Sunday Mirror interview:
‘Sorry,’ he mumbles bashfully while everyone stares at those bulging arms. ‘I’m certainly developing muscles with all this training,’ he admits later. ‘I’m astonished at how quick my body is changing.’

So what does wife Nicola think of the metamorphosis of farm boy to super hunk? ‘I think she likes it,’ he answers coyly.

In the flesh, Matt is charismatic, if a bit geeky and very good-looking. He’s friendly rather than flirty, competitive without being arrogant and confident – until you get him talking about women. Neither is he comfortable with a Simon Cowell-style plunging neckline (as soon as our stylist releases his top button he fastens it up just as quick).

‘Of all the things I’ve done in my career, this is by far the most nerve-wracking,’ admits the presenter, who grew up on a sheep farm in Durham. ‘Even more so than jumping out of planes.’ It’s been a while since those crazy days of extreme sports in Blue Peter and he admits that having Luke, three, and Molly, one, has calmed him down.

As he walks away from the set we can’t resist asking whether a handsome country boy like him has ever rolled around in the hay for real? With a glint in his eye, he gives us a cheeky grin, shrugs and keeps walking. And as his cheeks turns a paler shade of crimson, we want to know how much of a Mr Darcy he is in real life…

They had an interview with Hello! Magazine (Buckinghamshire November issue), photo were shot by the snotty fox professionals. Can’t remember which week they had it though. I don’t have the magazine and this is the one I am talking about:

Now on to the 11th of December on The One Show and this hour long show had Cilla Black & Micky Flanagan as guests. Bit of a nightmare choice so far as I’m concerned as I find both very irritating! At least Matt seemed to be enjoying himself

Hello

I have watched back some old clips of Matt on ITT 2010 including his crib. And now I spotted some books in his bookshelf downstairs that caught on the camera.

Here is the screencap of that bit:
http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/...-Bookshelf.jpg
Those books are thought to be that of Matt cos it seemed to be his work-related references as such – as you can see ‘Countryfile – Perfect Day Out, British Countryside, Britain…something else…and among them I spotted ‘Overcoming Dyslexia’. So my question is who needed to read it? Matt or Nicola, I am intrigued! I have no clue but we know Matt is a kind of guy who would keep this kind of thing from public as it is unnecessary to let others know. Only years later we would know what injuries he got, where and when, etc., by chance of course. Sport Relief Only Fools on Horses and Country File (racehorse episode) are the perfect examples to this.

Anyway in the absence of Matt on CF this evening I am taking this opportunity and watch DOI instead tonight. I can’t afford to miss out next week CF Winter Special though. We will get to see Matt and the London Vegetable Orchestra in a brand new edition! How would people play those veg as the musical instruments? The most interesting thing is how Matt gonna plays a mean tune of a carrot?? Himmmm…can’t wait! Really miss him on CF!

I hardly of noticed the guests cos my attrition was on Matt only...honestly...hee...hee...hee…A counterfeit headphone looking good on him.

I like the velvet jacket … he looks lovely…thanks KK.

Emma - I wasn't aware that you didn't know - Matt's dyslexic. He mentioned it on twitter after someone criticised him misusing a word. He also sort-of referred to it at Gardener's World as he mentioned autocue generally being a nightmare for him and he tended to write his own notes in bulletpoint form.

I think from comments his dyslexia may be quite bad (at least sometimes) but evidence is he copes well and doesn't make any sort of deal out of it. Probably explains why he likes writing scripts though - easier to memorise...

Hi,
I check in here now and again as Matt and Aliona were my favourite couple ever on the show.

I never would have guessed Matt was dyslexic. He is a very fast learner of almost everything he tries, so it may be mostly with words that it affects him.

Chelsee seemed to be similar, as she was a very fast learner at dancing but struggles with words.

Tara seemed to be affected a bit in regard to learning to dance because she seemed to need breaks because her brain got overloaded and couldn't take the information in at that speed.
Matt did say in the first training video (I think) that there was so much information to take in and it was almost like having to learn to walk again and said he felt like his brain was fried. But in the time available and with all the other things he had to work at too he showed amazing stamina and an ability to cope with a huge workload, which must have impressed the BBC bosses, that here was a man you could rely on to cope with almost anything.
Aliona tried to find his limit 'where he would crack' in week 3 but even at his limit, he didn't 'crack', kept his cool and politely pointed out that he was at the limit of what was possible.

Hi Fatskia - nice to see you here

Kara is severely dyslexic so I think it affected her in other ways - like memorising things. Matt I think learnt to work around his dyslexia by being very good at memorising things. So whilst Kara is open about her condition I guess Matt never felt like it needed to be discussed because he can cope better.

From comments other people who've met him have made I think Matt can struggle with some things. I've often wondered if it might have played into him giving up on twitter - I suspect keeping up with tweets on a tiny screen when you're writing and reading scripts pretty much every day could be a burden...

Hi KK and Fatskia

I am not on the twitter so I didn’t know Matt’s dyslexic even I did surf his twitter occasionally when he was on strictly cos people could google it. I watched Matt’s Strictly Cribs on BBC2 and I didn’t spot on it either. Like Fatskia said, I would never, ever guess about it. I always found Matt is v flexible and adaptable and has clever ways of doing things. It must be post strictly when he had to become mentioned about it.

He might have had some really good tips from the book - Overcoming Dyslexia. So I reckon he has overcome it despite he might still have some difficulties…he seems he copes well and manages to work around it. He did say in their quickstep strictly training clip that his brain doesn’t work that fast or something like that. Also when talking about the background knowledge and information collected by doing the One Show and Countryfile, he did mention that old the short-term memories have to be replaced with the new ones cos it is difficult to absorb, retain and recall all the information forever.
