Ooooohhhh, I do like Ian. For his personality though, not as a swoon object.

I agree with less music people plugging their stuff. If I wanted that sort of thing I'd watch X-factor.

If she likes the forum and actually comes on here herself then she has more power than us to be able to say to the production staff, fans would like (fill gap), hence the reason for starting the thread - anything else on here is people's opinions - no one as far as I can see has been needlessly offensive.

Yes me too. (Although am beginning to see what others see in him ...
I really enjoyed him on ITT tonight, hope they make it a regular thing.
Am I the only one that gets the hump when they take up most of Mon's programme showing the highlights of Sat night?
I would have thought peeps that watch ITT have already seen Sat nights programme, recorded/Sky+ it, watched it again & may even have watched Sun's too! (like me
). I just FF that bit now but it makes the programme very short & a real anti-climax.
Also PLEEEEEASE producers, stop showing Fiona Phillips dancing again & again & again. It makes me sick to the stomach.

I second that.
Pretty please.
Copyright permitting, is there any chance of seeing some proper highlights of the current American and Australian shows? If that's not possible on BBC2, how about showing them on BBC3?
In common with most other people, can we please have fewer pluggers on ITT and more stuff that is relevant to the actual show such as chatting to the judges, contestants and pros. It would also be good to see Ian W (or any other competent pro) do the Thursday training slot instead of Craig RH. I suspect that Ian, Nicole, Anton etc. might bring rather more insight to how the training sessions are going than Craig.
........ and I know this one is ultimately about network priorities, but a 60 minute slot on Fridays would be fantastic. Another 30 minutes of ITT would be far preferable to Eggheads or whatever else gets dished up in the early evening slots.
That's enough for now.
Cheers,
G.

Oh yes, anything that booted Eggheads would be welcome
Another request - would really love to see a sister show on Saturday nights too. Perhaps on BBC3 straight after the main show or at some point in between the main show and results show. Featuring more interviews with the couples and back stage footage.
SCD is such a wonderful show but I really feel the BBC could treat it better. The official website needs some work too.

A Saturday show is a great idea! have they ever done this before for SCD? I didn't really watch the first 2 series.
That worked really well for pop idol you really got to see their personalities emerge

Yep they did it with SCD1 with Justin Lee Collins doing a BBC3 show. But for some reason they've dropped it ever since.
ITA - Eggheads is one of the worst programmes I have ever seen... talk about S-L-O-W. Though I love the 2 female eggheads, especially the really posh one. She'd eat Craig for breakfast innit!!!
A follow-up show on BBC3 would be GREAT on saturdays b/w live shows on BBC1. Am wondering though how this would work with the pro dances and other bits which are shown in the 2nd saturday BBC1 show but are not live.
Oh and also my red button is very unpredictable *insert rude comment here*
and I couldn't listen to Ian's commentary on BBCi on saturday, what was it like?

Was great to see more training footage tonight...keep it up and drop the pop performances and ITT will be brilliant!!!
Dear Claudia, please give your live guests more time. No sooner do you welcome them onto the show, but then go into a long VT and when that's over, barely have time to say good luck for Saturday's show! It's annoying, why have them in live if you hardly talk to them?
Also pleeeeeeeease ditch the groups and pop singers. We're not interested. We love the dancing, that's why we tune in, not to watch lame acts miming.
Len is brilliant and hysterical, keep him in the show forever.
I admire you for wanting to be nice to everybody, even when it's clear they can't dance, but it would be good to get a tough question in now and then.
When you run the Panel VT on Monday's show, at the end, tell us what they voted first, as often it's not clear just from their comments.

......... but I bet you'd still prefer an extra 30 minutes of ITT.
Anyway, it was excellent to see Philip Jackson taking a look at the training footage rather than Craig. A very welcome development.
Dear Claudia, please stop inviting Anton to go on the show on Wednesdays. We, his students, all miss him terribly... Thanks
By the way, loving your work! Congrads!

I LOVE it when there's a singer on the second part of SCD but only because we usually get to see a couple of professional dancers doing the more unusual routines. Its one of he highlights for me, please don't cut it out - the singers if you have to - but not the dancers.

When we say no singers, we are talking about when they have pop singers on ITT with no dancing and no relevance to ITT! I agree, the dancers performing to singers on the main show is great...although I wish they would dance for the whole song, but maybe I'm just being greedy!!

Couldn't agree more. I also hope (but probably in vain) that the judges are made to explain some of their extraordinary scores. It would be a great shame if the antics, petulance, gross favouritism and grandstanding of the judges wreck one of the best light entertainment shows of the past 30 years.
On a lighter note, it'll be good to see Patrick Swayze again this week. I thought he was a rather good guest last year.

His bruno impression was rather amusing!!
Totally agree - the judges DO need to be accountable for their bizarre scoring on Saturday.
Furthermore how very very unprofessional of both Len and Arlene to say Brendan should go just because he argued back at the judges! That is making the competition and scoring personal rather than professional. Especially Arlene and her LI comments sooooo uncalled for.
CLAUDIA PLEASE PLEASE FIND OUT JUST WHAT IS GOING ON
