He's quite relaxed at it, it's definitely something that comes naturally to him.

that's his job, he is a presenter, nothing new for him. good timing though votes falling for Strictly, must have a good agent.

That's what I was thinking too.

It's all part of his "career development."

Someone at the BBC a while back might have decided he had potential, but if he were to attract television viewers, his profile needed to be raised.
That's why he is doing Strictly.

I did say at the beginning of Strictly, that his inclusion, though he be relatively unknown, (I'd never heard of him) that this was likely to happen.

Maybe ITV made him a better offer than the BBC, or maybe he has no contract with them, which seems strange.

They were also trying to make Naga "more viewer friendly," that's why she was in it. Unfortunately, it didn't work. In the earlier stages when popularity is more important than being an improving dancer, she obviously wasn't.

They might have had similar plans for Laura, though there again, it might have been a case of inviting someone from "the opposition," to deflect any criticisms of bias.

Although she has worked for the BBC, she's probably freelance.
If she'd proved popular, they might have offered her a job, this still might happen

Still, "one out of three ain't bad."

You can't beat an appearance on Strictly, as an opportunity for improving your "market value."

Way too late for me to see, but I did enjoy him in Rio at the Olympics.
He seemed 'easy to watch' - assume he was the same today?

Tru dat! Anyway, I can't imagine Ore would have been top of the list as a stand in prior to Strictly. Jay McGuinness went from some guy from a boyband to lead role in Big The Musical, Tom Chambers parlayed his Strictly win into a West End lead and it's increased the profile of a lot of contestants. Strictly is a great shop window.

What I can't understand why he's working for ITV. He may be freelance, or even under contract to the BBC, so they might be "lending him out" for a while, then drag him back for something similar and some ITV viewers with him?

They aren't always daft, the BBC.

I didnt think he was very good with spur of the moment quips, not as good as Phillip, Rylan or Eamon
But it was hs first time
He mentioned his wife quite a few times in different segments maybe he was trying to appeal to the lonley wives

He is so much better following a script

Perhaps Tess has been teaching him?

They cut to Loose Women to find out what the programme was about. Ore immediately asked when he'd be getting an invite onto the show. They replied he could come any time. So he may be making an appearance on that show.

Guess he doesn't need much to time to learn the new dance if he can appear on This Morning! Are these dance routines that easy they don't need much learning?

It took a few hours of his morning up and he said he was straight off to practice

I am @ work so haven't seen it. Even if I was @home wouldn't have watched it. Can't stand HW. I am surprised he is doing this now, when it's so competetive. May be he knows his card is marked, may be he is not doing the tour, who knows??.


Glad the viewers liked him, hope they vote for him.

He is already a presenter???

He is a sports presenter on BBC Breakfast as well as presenting other programmes.

I am somewhat confused as to why this appears to be 'news'??

Am I missing something?

Presenter does job! Not exactly headline stuff, is it? But then we do have a host of people on record on this forum as not knowing who he was despite being on every single night of the Olympics so, well, you know!

His fans may have been interested to know he was appearing on a different show, and may have missed it otherwise - hence the thread.

He's doing his job, like most of the contestants do, when taking part in Strictly. Rob's still filming for Judge Rinder most days, and only really gets to practice of an evening, I understand. Claudia's splitting her time between gymnastics training and Strictly training. Ed's still overseeing things at Norwich City, and as we're in the midst of Football seasons probably has plenty of meetings to go to, as well as promoting his book.


Celebs can't be expected to spend all day locked in the training room for a 13 week competition at the expensive of their careers they've spent their adult lives committed to.

You make very good points.
