Thanks for the heads up - I won't bother reading it.

Quoting 'a source' can be taken as 'I'm making this bit up'.

All this carp really is an exercise in not rising to the bait isn't it. It's difficult but it really shows how worried they are by the success of Strictly. Now they are reduced to individual character assassination - seriously!

I doubt Anton is a saint, in fact my sources tell me he can't possible be because he dosn't walk on water! I also seem to recall many of his past partners give glowing accounts of him - many years later - so it would seem he is also not the devil incarnate. Probably therefor a perfectly normal human being who has his good and off days like the rest of us.

I cant imagine Anita is grateful for any of this nastiness - supposedly by her indignant 'fans'.

I am surprised the OP has chosen to believe this article - based on what - anonymous, unproven (and quite probably fictitious ) grumblings. I would put money on it (and I never bet) that if you asked the other pros and his past partners etc the vast majority would put their name to him being a perfectly decent man.

Man if you're gonna release poison pen nonsense at least go the whole hog. "He's a bit rude and he asked someone to peel a satsuma" is some weaksauce nonsense.

I have it on good authority, from an unnamed source, that Anton Du Beke sacrifices puppies to Satan every Sunday, and has the body of Jimmy Hoffa in his cellar. He is instrumental in the escape of Lord Lucan, was a regular dinner guest of the Kray twins and learned to dance so he could tap out secret Morse code spy signals to the Nazis. He insists that sexual partners call him "Tone the Bone" and cannot successfully urinate without a terrified animal (dog for preference) making direct eye contact with him - afterwards he will not wash his hands, but will wipe off on said animal. One time for fun he set fire to a tramp, and wouldn't put the tramp out until they'd done a, as he put it, "marvellous fleckerl". His teeth are carved elephant ivory, and it's a part of his BBC Strictly contract that, at all times, two runners must actually run - on a big treadmill, which generates the electricity he uses to kill white lab mice for fun.

You can tell by the way the other pro's and celebs interact with Anton that they like him and can have a laugh with him, for example Claudia going up to him after the semi-final show and getting a big hug or them all in the Clauditorium.

I seriously doubt they would do that if he was an especially horrible person, especially as they seem nice themselves and are unlikely to tolerate anyone being excessively unpleasant - there haven't even been any digs on ITT or anything. Thats what tells me that this is a load of old rubbish.

I think this comes under the heading of 'If that's the worst they could find about you, you must be doing OK.' None of us could survive unscathed if they really went for us. But this is someone being judged for asking for fruit by people who would delete messages from the phone of a murder victim so... They're just internet trolls who are paid, basically.

Rotten for Anton just before the final though. I doubt it will be the only hatchet job before Saturday either. The press have their knives into Strictly this year more viciously than I can remember before (though maybe I just wasn't paying attention).

Murdoch Empire knocking the BBC. No agenda there, then.
Its utter drivel "written" for people with sh1t for brains.

As most know I am no Anton fan, and that is from experience - but it was years ago while he was still competing, whilst I have no time for him on the show, I do believe like Jennifer posted earlier in the thread that since Strictly he has changed - from seeing how much the likes of Jo Clifton like him really think that must be true. As for The Sun would not even click on the link for that rag

Sod that chip paper for a game of soldiers.
Just makes me want to multi vote on the internet so own goal OP, well done.
Same as the hatchet job on Katie in the daily Fail.
I no longer care who wins on Saturday as they all have pros and cons...but in the same way I think abusive tweets to Kevin are out of order, I also believe character assassination without named sources is utterly irresponsible.
So my favourites to win now are Katie or Kellie.

Last week on ITT both Oti and Janette (independently but simultaneously) named Anton as the "Santa" of the group - I hardly think they would do that if he was as despicable as this article suggest.

But Jay's has loads and loads of 'sources' making up rubbish about him, way more than anyone else, and Georgia's had the Strictly curse and fighting with Helen stories. I mean, you vote for Kate and Kellie if you want to, obviously, but they aren't the only people who have had to deal with crap this year.

Most of what isn't officially revealed is made-up crap, or brain-rot about affairs etc.
That's why I avoid it all.

Agree.

The problem is there are a gullible few, who actually believe this made up rubbish.

Agree.

The thing is, it must be terrible for those like Anton who wake up and read or are told about this made up rubbish, even if they know its made up, it hurts, their people as well. These papers do not care who they hurt, whose reputation is taken through the mud, on their agenda against the BBC. Poor Anton is ribbed apart, on something far bigger than him, just for a campaign.

Constant chipping away is bullying, and can damage people health.

Not that these papers care, who they haul through the mud.

Newspapers are prepared for this to happen, but is an individual? Emily Fairbairn, the writer of this defamation has the Sun behind her to cover any legal costs, but I suspect Anton will ignore it rather than lower himself to her level.

There are many who have experienced the the opposite of what this article suggests such as the one whose mother is in her 80s and blind and wrote on the BBC board that she has wanted to dance with him but never thought she'd get the chance. She approached him when he was at a store opening and he willingly danced with her mother in the street. That's a nasty person?”

It was the north circular though

"This is a man who once allegedly sent an underling to search for a satsuma before imperiously making her peel it in front of him." Worse than Hitler

Serious hard news story from The Sun, Satsumagate.

Global warming, Chelsea sacking there manager, in/ out if Europe, floods, migrants, terrorism, but according to The Sun, Satsumagate a made up story is more important.

I hadn't realised Chelsea had sacked Mourinho. Cheers **Goes of to look at the sports headlines**

How can this vile man be in with a chance of winning. I feel sorry for Katie who is lovely. Yes, I know its The Sun, but this has been said by multiple other sources and people who "really" know him over the years. If he takes over from Len, his grinning gurning mug will kill the show instantly.”

Franchement je pensais que j'avais tout lu des conneries concernant les pros, mais voilà encore une conversation sans but et sans intérêt.

I guess pete137 repeatedly writes to David Walliams with the message "For Gawd's sake learn to spell your name correctly!"

Right, coffee finished, regulation burb made and this vile poster consigned to the shithouse.

And no need to rush to a dictionary to translate the French - it just says "Dear God, not another idiot post!"

Without trying to hijack the thread, can you give some examples of sources making up rubbish about Jay?

I am aware of tabloid trash talk about all the other celebs, but apart from making a mountain out of a molehill about the ITT baby comments. I've missed anything about Jay.
