I met James about 5 years ago - he was lovely, v tall, but there again everyone is tall compared with me He crouched down by my wheelchair so we were on the same level for the pic.

Did any of them let you take photos while you were on set (obviously not during the filming!)??

I don't want photos! I always look terrible in them.

We were told that photos could be taken after filming had finished, but I don't think any of us did. We were wimps.

Arlene when she was my Jazz teacher 20 years ago. Fearsome, demanding but an inspirational teacher

I did not talk to him, but Ian W was at a private members club I was in last night (a drinks club) - he kept his head down, not seeking attention, minded his own business. good on him.

LOL, I've always been mad on Hanna! She's just everything. For the joy she brings to dancing, and for what that has brought to my life - she's a true inspiration. She's everything that I want to be - she keeps the dream alive, you could say! I'm just gutted that I've not heard much of her lately . . . I miss her . . . she should come back to Strictly! I dream of the day I am lucky enough to be taught by her!

So in other words, yep, I do like her a lot!

Craig G H - met him several times in the past 10 years - one of the most charming likeable people in the industry - and the one thing you remember about him is his honesty - he tells it like it is. ......and I had that opinion before SCD started ...... so whilst his waspishness is a bit of showmanship his honesty and integrity is 100% genuine.

I met him once or twice because he teaches at the same studio where I have my medal lessons.
He seems ok, always speaks, and is very nice really.

Oh wow! What medals are you up to?

I'd love to have an actual lesson with Paul but I don't think I'll ever be able to afford that one! It's nice to be able to dream, though!

Watched her and Victor's show dance from S1 last night. It's amazing, totally the highlight of the series. Then I found some fabulous pictures of them doing a demo in china.

They seem to be in the states at the moment, but I'm not sure! Why do neither of them have a website? Or do they and I've not been clever enough to find it?

Only just started with the actual medals. It was Ian's idea i should do them, but Ian doesnt teach medals, just competition standard and couples etc.
so i had to find someone else.
I am told i should find up to silver quite easy because i am almost there already. After that i will have to pull out the stops. My main problem is that i have to learn the jive and it is just not my dance.

You are right about Paul though. lesson with him are an absolute fortune. About 4 times what the other professionals charge. Dont know how people afford to have lessons with him!
