Smart Flavia.”

I've always thought that was the male AT that looked closest to the real thing on Strictly (and I know that's not saying much!). As I recall, both Alesha and Gethin scored higher that week for their ATs, both of which had me wearing my wtf face.

I noticed Flavia avoided the AT with Louis.

I loved it.”

Fair enough, but maybe you haven't seen too many ATs that were actually decent? 39 was an extraordinary score for that performance.

Should have said it earlier: lovely satirical Opening Post and thread subject by dancing Dave.

Absolutely brilliant!

More please!

He probably deserves more credit for commanding the arena while a ditzy Kylie Minogue song was playing than for his specialized AT performance.

Love your humour, Dave. Don't let the Humourless deter you.

Have you got a sense of humour? Make that a rhetorical question

Claudia: Now onto Ore. Bruno, was Ore, you know, just standing around doing nothing?

Bruno: Oh no Claudia. You cannot just do that amount of nothing and that amount of standing around and get away with it unless you are masterful and Ore was masterful.

Claudia: So that was brilliant choreography, you know, standing around and looking like he had taken root?

Bruno: Oh yes, brilliant stagnation-ology and immobile-ology.

Claudia: That is a lot of ologies there, so it must have been good?

Bruno: Masterful sedentary perfection ... ology.

Claudia: We need to say again, just in case the viewers have forgotten since we last said five minutes ago, that Ore has not had any dance training.

Bruno: That is right Claudia. Professional dancers usually take years of training to achieve this level of rigor mortis when standing around on the dance floor, but Ore, wow, he has perfected it in just a week. Motionless excellence.

Claudia: Was it like A* grade GCSE standing around, or just A grade?

Bruno: Neither Claudia, it was much better than that, it was empyrean. His face commanded respect as he stood there doing nothing. It oozed confidence of a man knowing his standing about was a work of genius. You could see this was a man who exuded the firm belief the viewers would never see this level of inanimation ever again in their lives. Never again to be seen by human eyes. Easily worthy of a 10.

Claudia: Super. Do you often flash your 10-paddle to people standing about in a bus queue?

Bruno: Only 9s Claudia, only 9s. Ore's stagnation was a 10 because it was so amazing it was as if the King of the Gods, Zeus himself, was waiting for the 5.39pm bus to Olympus after a hard day godding at the office.

Claudia: We are so lucky to have you here Bruno to explain this motionless masterclass to us because us mere mortals would have just wondered, why is that bloke just standing around? Thanks again. Tess, back to you.”

Too funny.

I really like Ore. I just thought that was a particularly amusing post.

Aw give the FM credit. He/she joined specifically to post his bile. He/she will be all the nicer person for getting that off his/her chest.

Really? I didn't notice that....

Anyway, its very funny. But as Darcey would say; 'I WOULD ONLY SAY, Dave that Ore did do FOUR flicks in between watching Joanne audition for next year's show'.

I dont think you'll find many Ore gushers, like you on this humorous thread

what is it as well with you and another person trying to dictate what new FMs posts should look like, when they don't conform to your opinions?

Oh, go on. I agreed that the OP's post was funny. Anyone who can do a Bruno voice in print is fine by me.

Clearly thought she was doing ballroom tango with the usual teeth baring gurning so beloved of competitive ballroom people. Why smile when you can, with the right weird head position, make sure the potentially blinding arc lights bounce off your crowns?”

I don't know jack about the Argentine Tango but i do know that your 'harpy with rabies' description has made my evening.

It's a perpetrator choosing a target, or targets and playing to an audience. Basic psychology tells us those who insult others see something in that person that they hate in themselves. So self-esteem issues really. Very sad.
