I don't know, unless you are really interested in what you're looking at, watching hours & hours of film can be a real chore. With the amount of footage they are shooting, I never really expected any of them including Claudia to trawl thru all the film.
I would think tho that they tell the peons(no offense to anyone intended) that do the trawl what to look for. |

I think how it goes is that a minion from the bbc is told what tapes to get and what they want to look for. The professional is paid to come in and review it and gives the minion the evaluation of the tapes, and where to put the circles etc. Minion writes it down and passes all this to CRW ready for him to deliver "his" evaluation on ITT.
As regards CRH's technical knowledge, well he uses alot of Ballet terms, and is obviously a trained dancer, as he had a career in Musical Theatre in Australia and New Zealand before coming to the UK. I cyberchatted with a fellow cast memeber of his from La Cage Aux Folles back in the 1980s, who said he was a very lively and nice chap (unlike Jason Gardiner, also on the same tour and sacked after calling in sick, and being discovered to have gone to the Sydney Gay Pride Mardi Gras instead!) ![]() But how much Craig, Bruno and Arlene know about the finer points of Ballroom are debateable, however they have been doing it for 5 series now. |

La R, that is exactly right as you have guessed. The professional doing it could not be described as a peon as was said by someone. He was at the Royal Albert Hall on Thursday judging the international comp.
I bet he would be loving being described as a peon! |

BBC know that SCD + Robin Hood decimates ITV - X Factor does Sunday, so they will too.

It's great being there, however last week was very different to my previous experiences of going to see the show. There were a LOT of technical hold ups, resulting in us not getting out until 11.30 and a lot of audience members leaving. (This annoyed me like hell, the tickets obviously can't have meant that much to them, this is why I hate the ballot system)
Bruce & Tess are very professional, it's nothing to do with them, the only reason for stopping and starting were sound issues. And just for the record, to prove I did go: http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f9...58180_8574.jpg http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f9...64041_1250.jpg http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f9...64038_5037.jpg http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f9...10193_1805.jpg x x x You and friend are real glam, I have saved the pics to drool over, maybe place under my pillor or use as my Windows wallpaper.... In my one experience attending a "live" TV show (Eric Morley's Miss World) there were endless start/stops, with "APPLAUSE" placards held up prompting the live audience, treating the audience like props. TV producers really believe a few hundred live customers are of no value compared to the millions of viewers. I believe the only televised coverage you could rely on as "live" would be occasions attended by Her Majesty. Thanks again Vikki, one day for our sensuous rhumba, Mr Mind XXXX |

I see that complaining to BBC POV and asking them to explain why they no longer show the results live was a waste of time, they just glossed over the whole subject this afternoon

I thought the response on POV was flippant and patronising it just showed how much they disregard their audience.

A peon is an unskilled labourer ! A paean is a form of song /poetry ! as in a paean of praise . A Pion has zero spin and is composed of first-generation quarks. In the quark model, an up and an anti-down quark compose a π+, while a down and an anti-up quark compose the π−, its antiparticle. The neutral combinations of up with anti-up and down with anti-down have identical quantum numbers, so they are only found in superpositions. The lowest-energy superposition is the π0, which is its own antiparticle. Together, the pions form a triplet of isospin; each pion has isospin-1 (I = 1) and third-component isospin equal to its charge (Iz = +1, 0 or −1). A Pain is a pain. |

It was indeed very patronising. Two complaints were read out regarding Kennygate, and then Terry, using that strange voice that he uses all the time these days, said "it's recorded, you know". As if he were talking to a 3 year old.

I'm glad I didn't bother emailing POV or tune in now! The BBC never gets the gist of a complaint do they? |
