Do you know for sure that they don't get any money from the calls Jan. I think they get a percentage.

Do you think there is a Kristina backlash?

What did she do? I turned over before then.

Some observations.

"See you in the dance of Claudia"
Tess going through the motions, just reading the auto-cue.

Claudia to Judy, "oarography" if that was her own, Brilliant!

Sorry but with that chin, Judy staring at the camera whilst waiting to find out if she were still in, or out, reminded me of the vintage cowboy actor, Randolf Scott.

A different slant on the stupid question interviewers are asked to pose; "How did you feel?"
Claudia to Jamie, "How sad will you be if your mum goes out?"
"Not as sad as she will be!" Priceless!

Boy George, needed back-up singers to cover the fact that his voice has gone. Why do the BBC bother?

Claudia, so at ease interviewing the contestants.

Kevin and Karen, a "match made in heaven?" how much they appear to enjoy dancing together.

Good programme. A classic example with this one that "popularity always beats ability."

It's down to what the producers want her to talk about and they wanted a couple of people to talk about next week. Not her fault.

At least Pixie is a better dancer than singer. Which is a pity as I presume she is doing it to promote her failing career.

He kept looking for the red light to see which camera to cry on cue.

I usually do it every week but I didnt yesterday...actually I didnt vote for anyone last night......I didn't watch the show until later...........

Instead of making any comment about Thom or Simon she said in a girly, smirky voice 'I can't wait for halloween, I just wanna get scarreeeeeee' and then made a little screwed up look at me face.

No they don't make any money. We pay only the cost the service provider charges when we phone BBC telephone lines, which is why it is only 15p per call and not the 35p+ that commercial stations charge..

Joe Calzaghe, Vincent Simone and Ben Cohen, allegedly

So was Scott....

You know it isn't shown live right?

They don't get anything from the calls. This changed quite a few years ago.

Exactly. We've no idea if they spoke about Thom's exist before that but had it edited out. Steve was banging on about next week too so why not have a go at him?

How do they "fix" the leaderboard positions?

I find it hard to believe the BBC, or the SCD producers, or the judges would take the chance of doing something that could kill the show and would certainly damage their reputation and careers if it were found out. It wouldn't be a one-off mini-scandal either; it would be a cheat and deception going back years.

He was holding her hand in a photo snapped by paparazzi and he was walking ahead of her, leading her.


As I said before the BBC is not allowed to make money like that. It's in the BBC charter.

Yes I know. Live or not, she is very annoying

Unbelievable there was at least three couples that tat talked about next week, Brendan, Scott and another one to Pick on Pixie is not on.

They had a few people talking about how sad they were about Thom and then Pixie and Steve talking about next week. Again as I said before not her fault the producers cut and show the bits they want to.

Maybe she just doesn't look interested this series.

As I'm sure you realise, it's an EDITED sequence of clips. She probably DID say something about Thom or Simon as did the others who weren't show mentioning them.

Yes it is, I can make whatever comment I want and she was deeply irritating IMO.

But his shelflife is limited because the public are going to keep putting him and Kristina in the bottom two.

Yes, I voted for Sunetra, Caroline and Thom
