isn't the bonniest, that I could really get those hips working in my favour?

Yes, provided he didn't speak and wore a paper bag over his head I think he could be a goer.

SausageRocket · 22/11/2009 11:17

he makes me gag

yuck

my mate really fancies him. she is clearly mental. mind you, she does have fairly warped taste in manfriends.

His hips leave me cold. Now James Jordan I could (hips again not bothered about his personality or face), he moves beautifully and still manages to avoid looking to effeminate (unlike Brian imo)

fartmeistergeneral · 22/11/2009 11:17

I don't mind the voice, but the paper bag may be necessary. Lol!

I think he looks like a rat!

fartmeistergeneral · 22/11/2009 11:18

But the hips are so......versatile! How could they leave you cold? I reckon they could keep going all night.

I think I am just transfixed by those eyebrows which are so bizarrely HUGE but also curiously groomed to within an inch of their lives to concentrate on his hips properly.

He and Ali are good dancers but they have zero sex appeal.

bran · 22/11/2009 11:23

I was watching the professional rumba (rhumba?) last night and thinking how they were all doing the same moves but some of them looked macho like Brendan, Brian and James, while others looked elegant but wet like Matthew (I can't remember whether Anton was dancing, but he always looks drippy). I couldn't put my finger on the difference, I don't know whether it was posture or muscle tone or something else.

fartmeistergeneral · 22/11/2009 11:24

Yes, I agree about the eyebrows! They are out of control (in a very controlled way). I'm amazed you haven't noticed his hip movement, though. I am transfixed!

I don't think I've ever seen anyone in my entire life with so little sex appeal as Anton. The idea of him having sex is too awful.

OP posts:
SausageRocket · 22/11/2009 11:27

anton is unsexy I agree but at least he doesn;t seem to think he's god's gift to womenkind

Bunnysoprano · 22/11/2009 11:27

Apparently, Anton didn't have a girlfriend until he was in his 40's.

This was in the Daily Mail and therefore must be true .

Brendan, on the other hand........

Bucharest · 22/11/2009 11:28

Brian looks like Sandra Bullock and Michael Jackson's lovechild.

James has got one of those dreadful mouths that look like he has too many teeth attached to each jaw. And the receding hairline thing.....euwwww.

On reflection I think I'd have to do Anton.

(or stand Darren on Vincent's shoulder and see if that way one of the wee lovies would reach high enough)

fartmeistergeneral · 22/11/2009 12:02

Can't think which one James is?

On no account should anyone do Anton. And I can well believe he didn't have a girlfriend til his 40s (I think the same of the 'celeb' who is Ola's partner).

OP posts:
fartmeistergeneral · 22/11/2009 12:12

And although Anton doesn't think he's god's gift, I think he has the capacity to be sleezy with women due to lack of social skills with members of the opposite sex. (I'm basing my character assassination purely on the fact that he wears a shirt, tie and v necked jumper to practice sessions)

OP posts:
Bucharest · 22/11/2009 12:35

Anton, I feel, would very much like to be TheBigStar of the whole shebang....but Brendan's presence frustrates that....

I always think I like Anton when I see him being funny, and then I remember some awful things he has said, so yes, I reckon he can be quite sleazy/offensive....

I can't imagine him and Erin being partners either. (my Mum thought they were married, which had us for a bit till I googled)

gizmo · 22/11/2009 12:40

A wise man once said that Brian has the air of a man who has multiple bodies buried under the floor of his condomium...

The men on Strictly are a strangely sexless bunch tbh. I find Anton most attractive (note, not necessarily sexy) because he has a personality. On the whole, though, I'd rather do Ola

forehead · 22/11/2009 12:51

You lot are cruel. I think Brian is quite sexy tbh, my dsis thinks he is repulsive, but he can move. Now Matt is a different story, absolutely divine.....

SausageRocket · 22/11/2009 12:52

I heart Matthew but alas I suspect he is more Arthur than Martha.

Bucharest · 22/11/2009 12:54

And anyone who goes on holday with Christine Shriekly needs a slap.

Roffling at Arthur and Martha....

cornflakemum · 22/11/2009 12:57

oh yes - Bendy Brian (as we call him here) is definitely 'unnaturally' bendy...

I think Brendan is the only make dancer who manages to combine staying macho/sexy with dancing... I just wish they would give him a decent dancer and a chance to win one day...

SausageRocket · 22/11/2009 13:12

Brendan did win with that hideous lollipop newsreader

forehead · 22/11/2009 13:19

SausageRocket You are probably right about Matt,anyoune who can dance with the beautiful Alesha Dixon and not date her must be more Arthur than Martha. lol.

dickiethepunchlinedonkey · 22/11/2009 13:20

Brendan looks like Keith Harris (of orville fame) circa 1980. The Crackerjack years.

SausageRocket · 22/11/2009 13:22

I know, Alesha is unfeasibly gorgeous...... until she opens her gob. Bless her

ThatVikRinA22 · 22/11/2009 13:57

i thought brian and ali were ...ahem...getting down and dirty in RL?
