Likewise - and not just on this topic! Sales come before accuracy any day.

AFAIK John's only directly commented about the whole thing when he was asked to, and only in any detail to the DOI people themselves. They want as much controversy as they can get, it's good for viewing figures. DOI only got a passing mention in 'The Wright Stuff' because 'it's only a TV show'.

The rest of the coments attributed to John last week seemed to be rehash of stuff from other sources, not new interviews.

They were doing it to Kelly to - at least to a degree, some of the 'I want to get Bonnie' quotes were direct copies of stuff I've seen before.

Anyhow that's history now, I hope Sean gets a better run from the press than John did !

We were robbed. I could watch that guy forever, singing, skating, acting... even sitting still. Anyone see him singing "Maria" from West Side Story a few weeks back on the Musicals programme?? Melt.. Yummm.... He is amazing........


I would say "What a waste....." but that's probably not PC is it?

How is that "not PC"? You're right, that is a terrible waste of skating tallent. They really shoulda' kept him in.

100% DITTO on everything else you said! Infact, you sound just like me before I found out Olga Shuratenko reads these and I got all embarressed . Did you see him singin' Sunset Boulevard? Seriously, I cried ! Amazing doesn't even begin to cover it. YAY! I'm glad you said it too. I'm not so embarressed any more

That site has the Defrosted clip where he shows his butt (and they also interview his partner) plus songs from the Sound of Musicals and more clips of something called Boston Pops where he does, I Won't Send Roses, I Am What I Am and It Only Takes A Moment. Oh and a Loose Women interview which is hilarious. If you watch it you'll see what I mean when I say lucky Colleen Nolan!!! You can also see what he DID actually say on GMTV as that's on there too. Great site that. Also regarding Olga she's actually posted a message on his official message forum:

I don't put all that much trust in the tabloids, but The Sunday Mail claims John said in an interview with them that he'd been invited back to the show and declined.

LMAO thanx for that Fluffy. My other half wondered what was wrong because I was in such hysterical laughter after I'd seen that.

Yeah but they also got the name wrong so I don't know about that...it was Kress surely who said about the show and Karen who voted to keep him in

D'oh! You're right - I didn't even notice that bit

I also doubt if John is still furious about it, more likely just gone off the whole thing. That's why I'm inclined to believe we won't see him in DOI Extra, unless they use old footage.

Thanx Selena. Can put it on the same tape that has the Sound of Musicals episodes on it. Speaking of musicals ordered his Swings Cole Porter and Reflections From Broadway cds. Amazon said up to 6 weeks for the Reflections one so I've ordered them from 101CD instead. Says 3 to 5 days from 101CD can cope better with that. Seems they dispatch items individually as a dvd I ordered then has been sent.

Just listening to "Reflections..." now. You're gonna love it! I've got 'Sunset Boulevard' on repeat.

You know what, we need a John Barrowman appreciation thread. I just don't know which forum to start it in! Like I said before, you could start a thread about him in most forums - damn his multi-talented-ness! I just hate posting in this one, the title's retarded! I mean all we do is gush about him anywayz, we need our own place. He's not even in this show anymore. Who's with me?
