I love Anton, not ashamed of it and couldn't stand Jay
I hid in here last year from all the Anita/Gleb talk as it was less scary in here. I don't mind the teasing and just refrained from talking about Jay at all, love it here :P

I suspect had Gleb not looked like Gleb (not that he did anything for me on that front either!) there wouldn't have been so much vocalisation. |

I didn't get the Anita/Gleb fandom either. Her feet always irritated me.
And as much as I was (am) a huge Jaliona fan, Jay's dancing was/is overrated too. His Latin is probably the best by a male, but his ballroom was average at best. (But still, they are one of my favourites partnerships ever. if not the top.) I will also admit that I was a Smug Vicar and a Abbey fan. Don't throw me out!

I have to say, I have never ever gone off a celebrity because of their feet. Anita, Ricky Whittle, Harry, anybody else who was supposedly "sickle-footed" or "pigeon toed" or whatever. Never noticed, never cared. Ugly hands on the other hand, drive me ****ing bananas. Such a Craig...
Hands and feet here, 😳 Sticky up thumbs not so much but spatula hands..... Shudders |

Anita rarely pointed her toes which spoilt what might have been great dances. This is different from sickle feet or pigeon toes. Both of those can be corrected in time but they don't have enough time.

Feet drive me bonkers and I think it's mostly to do with years spent doing ballet and tap and then contemporary where, in the first two disciplines, getting the feet right was paramount and then in the last one, no-one cared!
I have such dilemmas about feet but unless someone's hand is really out of place or they're doing the great shovel impersonation, I can ignore them in the main. Heads out of whack also draw my attention but if the cleb is enjoying themselves, that goes a long way for me deciding to not give a stuff.

I admired Anita's athleticism and sheer determination, but thought all the retweeting of fan messages on how she wuz robbed, after she had been eliminated against Katie was a touch ungracious and deluded.
Not quite cricket, old chap. |

Darn, I didn't hide it well enough.
Knew I should have burned the thing. I laughed when he commented on his (former?) wish to be 'The bad boy of ballroom' - perhaps soon he could just add a letter L into that sentence and let nature take its course for his wish to come true

WTF was Karen Hardy wearing on last night's ITT?
It was ![]() Fawn collarless blouse with black & red squiggly bits all over it, with a plastic skirt in a different shade of fawn, black opaque tights and back shoes. Quote:
I thought she had had a freak parcel tape accident wrapping up Christmas pressies for the post.

![]() Why does she lead the clapping for herself and demand more cheers? Why has she started to demand to do a demo before it's even required? Why has she lost the plot?

I have such dilemmas about feet .I hate bad feet and sticky out bums unless you are just not a dancer and no one taught you as a kid. Just don't ask me to dance with you

![]() ![]() ![]() She has no dress sense at all. I was thinking the same. Hideous taste and so unflattering on a short woman with heavy legs and no waist. Why does she lead the clapping for herself and demand more cheers? Why has she started to demand to do a demo before it's even required? Why has she lost the plot?

I do appreciate it when they keep trying to re-ignite a dead storyline arc that last twitched at week 2, or in th case of Rob just keep switching between Komedy Kapers and Never Danced Before

I saw him and Erin on tour this year (my daughter bought tickets while I thought "Great! I suffered the tour and now I've got to put up with Anton".) I really enjoyed it, though. No pockets sticking out, bad wigs or safety pins for them. And Anton genuinely made me laugh - A LOT. He can deliver his spiel as though it's completely fresh and come up with clever and witty ad libs. |

I couldn't stand Gleb and I'm really glad he didn't come back. I went to the tour (and what a tawdry, tacky, tired affair that was), but fortunately we went to the performance where Mel was missing and Anita compered in her place so at least I was spared some idiocy about his supposed irrisistibleness. They did favour us with their paso, though - and the backing dancer on his right had much better pecs than him!

A tightly buttoned shirt neck is a must, as too many deep Vs and the appearance of the chest thatch induces gagging... but, appreciated his run with Lesley and genuine enjoyment of her, almost as much as her exit interview candour on thwarting the old lady stereotype. |

I never got the Gleb love. He always seemed a bit too in love with himself. If I'd thought he was gorgeous that would have induced permanent female brewer's droop, so to speak.... as it was, it was simply mystifying, or perhaps I just missed his incredibly deeply hidden sense of irony (answers on a postcard please).
