I was a bit of a Helen fan myself! Her VW was the best dance of the series for me.”

Of course it isn't, it's a fact her toes turn in, it is a critique, as would be lack of heel leads or you foot was sickled, Katie the other week was told her leg was turned in on the floor sweep.

And what was Anita's reply ?? She said Yes , we are aware of it and trying to correct it . Hardly a strop !!!

Haha, yes me too. Lord knows I was watching something different to the judges.

It wasn't what she said, it was her face.

No I don't, it seems a perfectly fair comment to make as it accurately described her feet.

What I did find offensive was last year when Craig moaned at Steve Backshall for not pointing his toes - when due to a past injury he physically couldn't do it!

There was nothing wrong with her face. She was disappointed.

What's so strange about that?

Well, I simply saw it as disappointment. Also, as mentioned, on ITT she accepted that there was an issue with her feet. Had she been that indignant about it, she probably wouldn't even want to address it, or would say something about Craig being unkind.

It was a "grin and bear it" type of face.

What else would you have liked to have seen? Tears?!

Yeah, his ankle was fused to his neck vertebrae (or something ) after he threw himself backwards down a cliff. The judges had to know that he had an actual disability.

But pigeon toes would also be hard to fix over a three-month period.

It did look like a grin and bear it face to me.

Well... it all goes to show how we can misjudge a face

Just as well it's not Craig's criticism of Jeremy we're talking about. My icon bank definitely doesn't include electrified storks

Or just mischief making by making something out of nothing.

laugh at this topic that was started straight after it takes two ended, where Anita was coming out as a favourite from nearly all of the guests.

Grow up!

What's with all these negative threads. I've seen several about Jay and now this one.

It's a shame to see such unpleasantness, considering how well all the celebs get on and how much they like and respect each other.

Stop flattering yourself. You don't know what Anita Rani presumes or what she does not presume. You're just a viewer just like the rest of us.
