Furthermore, the bit that you've construed as a windup was presumably the fact I included a video of Pixie in response to Lou saying Periscopes were 'awful' and used to drum up publicity. I concede that I put that there deliberately in response to her saying that but it wasn't part of a windup, merely as evidence for my point of view that celebs don't generally use it for publicity. I can see why you would argue that the Jordans sought publicity (especially considering half their Twitter/ Instagram posts are half naked pictures of one of them) but I'm sure you and Lou would agree with me that celebs like Pixie Lott, Jeremy Vine, Aljaz and Janette and Georgia and Giovanni do not purposefully seek publicity in general and therefore wouldn't use Periscope as a means of drumming up publicity. So Pixie was used as evidence because I'm certain that celebs like her would use Periscope for genuine and honest reasons as it's an excellent way of interacting with fans.
Edit: Apologies for taking this OT.”
BIB That point and this . . .

Indeed so! See this post for example!

A straightforward post on my part relating to a discussion between other posters I wasn't really involved in but read with interest.
Regarding periscope I think different celebs have different motives for using it. I like how Janette gives Strictly fans some backstage insight.
Anyway it's all cool, with the pro lineup confirmed and celeb announcements now having started the new series is here. And back on topic for this thread lets see who the new romances/showmances involve.
