In my defence, the Babycham was a suggestion for Louise. It seemed her sort of bland, oversweet tipple. Is it even alcoholic?

Babycham is up there with Frosty Jack's for me as "things you'd only drink if you're desperate".
I miss the days of drinking a 3L bottle of £2 cider from iceland on a park! |

I used to like the Babycham ads - with the little fawn and then the brawny chap saying in his deep brown voice "Hey! I'D lurve a Babycham"
^ quite disappointed that despite the promised new features following the upgrade, the clip isn't visible in this box. |

Louise's mum looks more glam and up for a laugh than Louise does. Just saying.

The most mental thing there is that they've sold 27 of them! 27 people somewhere have said "You know what I really need? A tacky Babycham glass - that will really make my life complete!"

Deeply impressed that you managed to sit through that. My God! The stamina and backbone you have!
I had to switch off. Louise acting scared of attention? Have you seen her early pop videos? Que? ) and I see that in a radio interview TTF was complaining that Louise daydreams in the training room. Help, I've got something in common with Louise. 'Cause, try as I might to concentrate, when she starts dancing my mind wanders. I swear, I've sorted out next week's shopping list, redesigned the back garden and resolved the situation in Aleppo during her dances.Quote:
Am also amazed that everyone is falling for the Ore Aura. I thought he was very cute when he first appeared. I'm a sucker for long legs and great hands, but as soon as he began to burble burble burble my interest waned. I was delighted my favourite bit of Breakfast sofa totty was doing Strictly. You could see he had rhythm, and he's obviously one of those people whose instinct is to start moving when the music strikes up, and in the first group dance I couldn't take my eyes off him. Now I cringe every time he opens his mouth. And now he is just barf inducing. Last night on ITT we had one 'Can I say' and one 'Can I just say' and I realised that you just have to scratch that buff and sexy exterior and you find Peter Andre!

![]() Actually, I did once drink one on its own. My late, and incredibly stingy, in laws once asked me if I'd like one at Christmas. As soon as I'd finished it, my glass was taken away and washed up so I knew I wasn't getting another.

Excellent - now we can bitch as we go along on Sat. Quote:
*pokes back*
Not too hasty. I joked about bifurcation before the final and they shut down on us for two days. *wibbles* Don't even joke about that, not now when we've only just got the place back *loves it dearly, even the smelly bits* Quote:
And in my totally unscientific poll today, I was wrong to say anyone over 60 would vote for Louise, as many of them are voting for Danny (he's a lovely boy, apparently) and a few for Ore (if he stops crying).
Deeply unappreciating TTF on ITT the other day and Louise saying how scared she was she wouldn't get in the final. I'm also deeply unappreciating the total Ore love that every single panel has displayed. Quote:

Perhaps she represents all the stay at home Mums with the luxury of a well paid spouse. Cos she is nothing like most of the mothers I know, who work blummin hard doing 2 or more jobs just to pay childcare.

I shan't be watching, but will definitely be here! the NAT is the best bit for me now.
I think I might do the same. I am genuinely torn between watching Oti swoop to victory, scattering Cliftons in her wake, or trying to endure the horror of Kevin's most triumphant sex face from behind a cushion. Quote:

Both Anita and Ore were touted as never EVER having moved about to music ever before, and some of Joanne's gusset wafting choreography has more than a smidge of a Gleb special about it. I am going to use this thing to buggery until the mods confiscate it.

I was quite fond of pre-Strictly Ore, but the dancing, sobbing, fake humble Ore is just a massive pain in the arse. I think that he and Joanne have been given the same script as Anita and Gleb had last year. Both Anita and Ore were touted as never EVER having moved about to music ever before, and some of Joanne's gusset wafting choreography has more than a smidge of a Gleb special about it. I am going to use this thing to buggery until the mods confiscate it. ![]() ![]() Also <waves> just in case Ore reads here - because his Thursday ITT interview had him saying that there is a point in every dance where he and Jwann look at each other and smile. Nope, Wet Ore - think you'll find it's Danny and Oti that have first dibs on that one ![]() Highly unappreciate that yesterday's ITT was one big shout out ... and DS was not accepting incoming calls ![]()

How about Stone's ginger wine???
A bit too hot and spicy for Louise. Perhaps she might be allowed a very small glass of Wincarnis on special occasions |
