Although he may not be to everyone's taste, I would like to put in a plea for a companion. I cannot call him a servant as he would sneer at the very idea. However, having seen him live in conversation, he is extremely witty, intelligent and articulate, if not conventionally attractive. He would, I feel, also
be a fully paid up DOT, joining in with the unappreciating and deriding War Drobe for their complete lack of taste ad style.

(Awaiting cries of 'who?') I would like to request the author Patrick Ness.

(If I can't have him, Goran Visjnic is rather easy on the eye...)
I agree, Patrick Ness is lovely. He's someone you would love to go out for dinner or a drink with. And he always favourites you when you tweet him (I'm easily pleased!).

Big Strictly fan too, he has a thing for Pasha if I recall...

If we're looking for a Celt stand-in, can I make a punt for Aidan Turner?

If he doesn't pass the audition, I don't care that much. I think my bedpost might pine if I release him from there for too long anyway.

Just thought I'd mention it. He mixes a mean Sidecar, pours the Champagne just so and is terribly good at pints for those that might want to slum it occasionally. His charming repartee is also rather wonderful and now he's scrubbed up since his vampire days, he's really very presentable. (He was certainly exceptionally presentable when done up in sparkly wrapping and ribbons for Christmas a couple of years back.)

Anyway... just an idea.
Done. Gruffold can do Mon-Weds. I am having to design a new block for the boys. So many of the new batch are on special duty or split shift the bungalow is not big enough any more, although I DO think certain people's booze stash is taking up A LOT OF ROOM THIS YEAR!

And yes, it will be a two-piece onsie for some of you. A contradiction in terms mind... Jeez, the things that I do for you lot.

Alan Rickman has to be shared. I will say this only once. We had far too much argy bargy last year with boys being kidnapped and going walkabout for oddly long periods. The level of service plummets when that happens. And the ironing never gets done.

It's just not good enough.

If we're having Celtic authors I'm having John Connolly, he's lovely, little and twinkly, and I can sit him in a corner and go over/bore him to death with my casting suggestions for any upcoming Charlie Parker movies with him if the dancing gets too bland

I haven't seen Robert since about the 16th November 2013. Come to think of it, I haven't seen Button very much at all since then either. You're right. There definitely needs to be some firm guidelines/rules on this.

May I make my request for the twosie now please?

Tut, do we have to have the scarlet pimpernel now, Sofs will have to project manage a side extension as well as the basement and attic extension on the bungalow!

I have just found out something to REALLY REALLY unappreciate. Gregg is reputed to never wear any underwear. Bleurgh!,

I am sure on the show everything will be tucked away tidily in the leotard things , but I am never ever going to watch any training clip with him in it.

At least this year we have lost Robin and his sweaty vests with the huge arm holes and now we have to know this .

Sometimes once known can never be unknown

Gregg has now been officially been tagged as a pervert after telling a group of the female pros that he couldn't wait for the series to start and stick his salami to one of them...Just chef talk I guess. no wonder Aliona went ballistic after she found out the good news about the pairing.

The moment Gregg called Zoe 'treacle' on the red carpet I knew I hated him. He was so chuffed with himself for doing it. He is going to make me squirm beyond belief.

Which was the dance last year when we were treated to the sight of Anton's trouser-courgette? The thing itself was so mesmerising I have forgotten the actual routine.

Don't worry. So did Anton and Fiona and they were dancing it.

Oh god I can see the jokes coming all of them involving wet celery, sticks of rhubarb and courgettes and marrows.

Stop it , stop it now Len, if you feel the need just remember small children and the elderly watch this show.

Will no one think of the children

What do you mean "he's going to be like a groper at a hotel disco"?

Yuk. *shakes* - do you really have to be so explicit this early in the morning.

I think the baker might make Dom Littlewood appear a saint if the former is going to be as leery as that.

I think we might have found our contender to be first out .....
If he is as bad as that - what's the betting that His pro doesn't try to hard to teach him?

Nope, he won't, I trust in the gods of dancing, they must not let me down

Why couldn't we have the lovely Michel Roux Jnr, Glyn Purnell, Tom Kerridge etc, all charming, lovely chef/food type people, why oh why

In regards to Gregg, it will be hilarious to read this thread tonight

Also, don't read any papers (on-line or otherwise) today, as they have already given away 2 of the pairings (I believe the daily mail??).
