SCD!!

[TheOstrich]

The talk of same sex dancing, was a something and nothing and why is a gay vicar worth a mention Ossie? We have had gay people on SCD since the beginning, including Craig and Bruno

Yes, I know we have, and I've absolutely no issues with the knowledgeable Craig and Bruno, or contestants like Judge Rinder last year. With regard to your friend's cousin, I am sure he is a lovely man, but I did read a feature article in the Times about him a number of weeks back and if I recall it correctly, he came across as very much pro same sex dancing. It's not the first time this issue has been raised with the BBC, apparently, and I suspect that we will be going down that route before too long, as has happened with some of the overseas SCD format shows. My personal choice is to give it a miss, I'm afraid.

Well luckily people are allowed to love who they want these days, as long as they are consenting adults!!

Shell I've seen the Rev on a few comedy game shows, seems like a nice man

So far, Strictly has not grabbed me this year - too many couples, too much padding (those ridiculous videos ) and a lot of poor dancing. Too many of the pros are not bothering to even teach basic steps, concentrating on gimmicks and props.

Aggers, to me Bruce was well past his sell-by and should have retired long before he did. As for Len, in the end he was just a caracature of himself with that Cockney geezer persona. I wish people would give Shirley Ballas a chance, she is way more qualified than Len ever was, but she did herself no favours last Saturday with very dodgy marking.

I agree with all of your post Osc - I will still watch as I think it's ideal Saturday night entertainment, but it has certainly lost 'some'thing.

And why they can't put the results show on later, say after Casualty, when everyone knows they don't do it 'live' on Sunday night, is beyond me!

Yes, Osc., that is true.

That applies to a lot of people I know, But it's no reason for getting rid of them, is it?
