You said you had been called a 'hater' which was totally inaccurate - you certainly need to apologise as you give the casual reader the impression that was true !

As Brian has patiently explained you can hate something (in my case very bad taste in clothes and frogs and toads) without being a 'hater'.
You also seem to be claiming that you are being called names which is not only untrue but absurd !
Why would you do that I wonder ?

Just to be absolutely clear no one has called anyone names - or made any personal insults !

My remark #1609

It's funny you get offended about a passing remark about G&G 'Shame on you', yet you openly offend us, calling us haters.

I still stand by this.

I don't want this thread closed ( Lucky Lou will never get over it ), so I am not going to take this any further.

Yet again - no one called you or anyone else a 'hater' as you yourself have proved !

Oti has posted two more lovely photos from last night.

Oti with Joanne, Kevin, Karen and Luba

Oti and Jo They sang Whitney Houston apparently

BIB That's been the real purpose of a lot of these posts not just today but over the last few months as you know Sarah . . . and it's not what I want either, although we'll be discussing this series across lots of threads regardless I'm sure

Oti has such a beautiful smile.

Can't wait for the new series to start.

I'm sure Giovanni will have joined in on that!




That's a rather strong and from what I'm aware, unsubstantiated, accusation. Which I and I'm sure others would like to distance themselves from.

She does, radiant

Me neither Huph, I'm sat here thinking 'three weeks tonight'

What are you on about now??. #1591 " They will soon find somebody else to hate" sounds really nasty, that we hate someone from each series and you think that is not offensive and doesn't add up to us being 'Haters'???.
For the last time, stop using the word hate.

Completely agree Sarah but they're just on a windup.

Off to watch some of the Olympics and enjoy a bottle of wine with Mr Ochre. As I expect this thread will be locked by the morning I just wanted to say Sarah I'll catch you, Lou (worth saying again what a brilliant thread idea this was Op) and other regular posters elsewhere on the forum to discuss Strictly, I've really enjoyed all our conversations on here xx

Same here, Ochre . I am also watching Olympics and typing away. I don't know whether I can stay up to watch Mo run 10,000. Should this thread get locked, I am sure Lucky Lou will start another thread.

Watching Olympics too.

I have really enjoyed this thread too, apart from the arguments along the way. Well done Lou for starting it

I would be disappointed if this thread were to be locked, as it was where I posted my little reviews of Vincent and Flavia's show, and Breakfast at Tiffany's. I was also going to be posting about "Big" when it opens in November. Oh well, by that time this year's Strictly will be in full swing anyway, so probably only of interest "upstairs".

Hi

This thread has become more and more unconstructive recently with very little discussion about the orginal topic. For this reason we are closing this thread.
