These?

Thanks, Ochre. Pixie looks stunning in this picture. She is a natural beauty. Other than the bottle hair colour, everything is natural, no nose or boob job.

Yes that's them
Thank you

I think Strictly has done really well - it has had a lot of genetically blessed (TM: side bar of shame ) people across the threshold.

I would pay and buy a magazine to see Miss Trendy ( thief) in those red boots.

Completely agree Sarah

Beautiful as Holly, gorgeous hair in this pic.

Love this old photo of Pixie, Oliver, Gordana and Trent

Been watching Pixie and Trent's Foxtrot, Quickstep, Samba, Tango and Viennese Waltz tonight.

Pixie goes bananas

Pixie and Trent's best bits Nostalgia

Cough. Arm placement

I don't know if Pixie's "people" manage her press exposure or she does it herself but so far so good, it all seems to be positive about her career. Good on her.

Morning Lou, at the beginning of their best bits when they were paired together the first thing Pixie does is throw her arm round Trent's shoulders

Love that she's having fun with her fashion when being papped on leaving the BAT shows, she has such a carefree attitude. Seems to get on really well with Matt and the rest of the cast and to be genuinely enjoying the role. Looking forward to seeing what she does after BAT too.

I am learning forgiveness

Do you know if the rest of the cast change when Pixie leaves? They will miss her if that's not the case. Probably best to have a completely fresh start.

Yes, she exudes joie de vivre and general happiness with her Lott (ba doom tish).

The same cast I believe Lou, Matt starred with Emily Atack as well as Pixie on the tour prior to the current West End run.

The Jordans in the SOS, oh dear. Is this staged shoot intended to secure the Ann Summers gig?

I know, it's hideous isn't it? I have always thought they genuinely do love each other so why cheapen their relationship by flogging it like a dead horse?

Being 'surprised' by paps on holiday seems to be their main source of income these days - I thought the recent one of them doing yoga together was particularly . Each one seems to have a few more graphic close ups though, you wonder what they'll be surprised doing next. It's quite sad really - I guess they have to support their lifestyle somehow, but I thought they were in talks with Arlene again about a project - unless that was just James talking it up on Twitter.

I've never been able to understand why James (in particular, seemingly) seemed so keen to sever the Strictly ties so completely. Strictly seems very obliging with regard to ex-pro's working under the Strictly umbrella - Robin, Vincent and Flavia, Camilla and Ian all seem to keep the association with no problem. It might not be the megabucks he was hoping for from being the next Eamonn and Ruth or Richard and Judy but its steady work an allows for the cost of dance lessons to be priced accordingly.

I just think its sad that people with an actual talent and skill are reduced to touting themselves about like an X-Factor reject or Big Brother first evictee.

I agree with all of this. I wonder if it was in a pique of rage that James tweeted "why sack me then?" after the pros were announced two years ago with a message that he would be missed. I suppose after that he thought there was no going back so he continued to complain via his Twitter account. Horribly awkward for Ola whilst she was still a pro dancer.

And yes, the touting is horrible. Their main jobs at the moment seem to be going out on "date nights" or going on holiday. Nice work if you can get it I suppose but I suspect the Instagram and Twitter photos are a ploy to make it into the SOS more than anything else. I don't know of any actual work that they have?

I wonder if it's for a callendar shoot? Although the DM does seem to have a go-to set of holiday destinations. Portugal for a quick frolic in the surf in a too small swimming cossie and a hot dog before the diet and fitness DVD, Dubai for the 'after' shots, Maldives for the TOWIE/MIC cast/wannabe cast. I wonder if when the celebs book in they have to negotiate sun lounger time with That One from The Batchelor?

Strange how zelebs can go happily about their business in private for months but then wham - they take a holiday and they can't move for photos in the SoS <DS really needs a tongue in cheek smilie>

BIB The yoga shots were hilarious

I knew I hadn't dreamt up James doing an Ann Summers campaign by myself Took me a minute to remember where I'd read it though The spokeswoman doesn't seem to think it's as definite as Ola does.

That story had passed me by . I guess that explains all the public groping - showing Ann Summers' 'core customer audience' what a sexy couple they are. It also opens up a whole host of (slightly nauseating) possibilities for their next staged shoot with the paps

checks stocks of mind bleach just to be on the safe side

Well, I do know that Georgia May Foote - who appeared on last year's Strictly - will take over from Pixie to do the last part of the tour when the London residency finishes at the Theatre Royal Haymarket on 17th September.

They will certainly miss her bubbly personality, that's for sure especially her co-star, Matt & there is no doubt there will be a big party for Pixie when she does leave.

Love the red boots she is wearing in the Instagram picture, the stars on the side remind me of Bowie. I have read she bought a pair of boots that Bowie wore on the album cover of Ziggy Stardust as a little tribute to him, I have wondered if they are them.

That's a nice anecdote Thom. Yes, Pixie will surely be missed. The DM are following her everywhere at the moment ... four articles yesterday?! It doesn't seem to faze her though and she takes it all in her stride.

Good morning Ochre Thanks. She is always smiling, looks really genuine.
I have said this before, I think she is really enjoying her work and is very grounded.

I loved their VW. I better not talk about the weakest link there, can't afford to beg for forgiveness again.

The more and more I watch Pixie goes bananas, her smile ( laugh) is so infectious.
She did come out of her shell that week, if I remember correctly.

For some images even bleach is not strong enough, straight to the couch.

Good morning Lou.After a long time, I haven't seen them, I bet those are not staged
photos for the paps. I really believe that she just loves her work. Not in it for fame or money, I guess it's a bonus, not the primary reason.

Morning Sarah Totally agree. Too soon for my happy with her lott joke again?
