i was in trafalgar square bout 7pm and i saw him.
im so stupid coz i was too scared to say anything, he looked really nice just like on tv
i didnt realise he is quite short only a couple of inches taller than me and im 5ft 4".
just had to tell everyone, im so excited!!!!

Oh, that's nice, but I thought he and Lilia were going to Blackpool for the competition tomorrow?

The competition isnt until tomorrow evening, quite late, so I expect they would go up maybe early afternoon tomorrow, after rehearsing at the BBC.

Gosh! Thanks. They'll have a hectic time of it over the next couple of days.

GOOD LUCK FOR BLACKPOOL DARREN & LILIA!!!!!!!

Haha, that's so random!! But cool, I love Darren!

I second that! Is it just Darren and Lilia going to Blackpool then, none of the others going?

Probably james and ola, although they have been knocked out of SCD. And Andrew and Hanna from Series 2

Aww how exciting for you

ooo i wish i saw him ur soo lucky

It's great when you see someone for the first time that you like and know off the tele (be it sport,film,dance or whatever)......they all look different in some aspect.....ie.taller,smaller,thinner etc.

You'll always remember the night you saw DB

Are Ian & Camilla not competing anymore? I remember they went up in series 2 aswell.

Darren joined Emma when she performed at the Covent Garden lights switch-on last night. He must have been on his way back from that.

Aww wow that is cool. I am leaving for Blackpool in about 2 hours ready to show Darren and Lilia our support tonight. I think James and Ola will be there, dont think Andrew and Hanna will as they don't compete for England. This is the British Nationals.

Dont think they are this year as SCD prevents them from practising enough. When they would have had to enter they wouldnt know whether they would be free or not. Amazed that Darren and Lilia are doing it for the same reason

Is there anywhere on the net we can get info about the Blackpool comp, ie where the results might be listed after the event?

thanx for all the replies
its true i will always remember last night as the time when i saw darren and never said hello

i didnt about emma doing the covent garden lights i was only 10 minutes away, i so would have been there.

What a shame you didn't let on to him.

Darren's & Lilia are both extremely pleasant, down to earth people who are always willing to make time for their fans.

Try & catch them at one of their live events (the link to the current listing of where they will be appearing is: http://www.darrenandlilia.com/events.htm) & they usually spend anything up to a couple of hours sgning autographs & chatting - not to mention doing a wonderful series of demonstration dances.
