Leila was a real contender but Anton danced some sod awful Latin with her, and made a racist comment to her, so frankly he's not due another good dancer until hell freezes over. Can you really picture him dancing the Salsa with Kimberley or Denise?

CalaveraCatrina · 21/10/2012 20:40

I think Tess took the whole 'Hollywood' thing too literally and came dressed as C3PO.....

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 21/10/2012 20:43

He's brilliant at ballroom but Latin is a problem, he might be step perfect but he just hasn't got the sizzle, no matter who he dances with lets face it even the best Latin dancer would struggle to sizzle with Ann Wiidecombe

Chubfuddler · 21/10/2012 20:54

Anton doesn't sizzle because he hasn't met me yet.

LetUsPrey · 21/10/2012 20:55

Arf at C3PO! That was a particularly awful dress.

Agree that Anton's ballroom is wonderful but his Latin is Not Good, particularly by the standards of the other male pros.

I'd like to see Graham Norton hosting the show.

Get rid of Bruce, give Anton the compere job. Can't take my eyes off Robin when he dances anything!

TheAngelsHaveTheOod · 21/10/2012 21:48

I keep thinking that they give him people who are likely to go out soon so that he can fill in for Brucie if he decides to stop mid-series.

I said this to dh last night. Though I didn't say stop...

MaryZed · 21/10/2012 22:03

I was being polite TheAngels, and diplomatic Grin.

You all know what I really meant ...

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 21/10/2012 22:07

Maybe Claudia could step up in that scenario.

TheAngelsHaveTheOod · 21/10/2012 22:12

If Anton ever gets given Bruce's job I'll stop watching.

Sparklingbrook · 21/10/2012 23:08

Bruce's bit isn't even bloody necessary. They can stand in front of the judges without him. And voiceover man can do the intro. Plus we don't want to see them 'in training'. Angry

I like seeing them in training (can't always watch ITT this year) if it is^ actually 'in training'.

If it's them mucking about visiting haunted houses I completely agree with you.

ScatterChasse · 22/10/2012 00:04

I didn't know you could italicise and bold something! That was a complete accident.

iklboo · 22/10/2012 00:11

I had an enormously naughty dream about Robin & dancing a paso to Muse's 'Muscle Museum'. Utter, utter filth Blush.

ppeatfruit · 22/10/2012 09:54

I don't vote but if I could vote for the world's worse effin old presenter it would be for sexist dinosaur Bruce Forsyth IT'S TIME TO HANG UP YR PRESENTER COSTUME Angry

Sparklingbrook · 22/10/2012 09:56

I caught a bit of the newspaper headlines on BBC1 today. One of them said Bruce is taking a break from presenting SCD. Turns out he's going on hols and will miss just the Novermber 10th show. Grrrrr. And Tess will present on her own. Angry

ppeatfruit · 22/10/2012 10:00

Oh that's interesting sparkling though shame it's not a PERMANENT break Grin

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 22/10/2012 10:04

Wish Claudia was presenting solo instead of Mess Daly co-presenting! It was great fun when Brucie was ill before and they presented together.

Not that I wish him ill or anything, I'd just like more Claudia.

Sparklingbrook · 22/10/2012 10:05

Found the 'news'

OP posts:
TheOneWithTheHair · 22/10/2012 10:31

Hmm I know it's children in need but Bruce only does one day a week and only a few weeks a year. He should be able to rehearse any day but Saturday. I think it's a bit odd.

ppeatfruit · 22/10/2012 11:03

Theone but he's VERY old and IMO it's showing more and more he used to be quite amusing but NOW he's lacking in sensitivity to an enormous degree (either that or i'm more aware of it esp. since the despicable J.S. thing). He is properly married but very just behind the times.

TheOneWithTheHair · 22/10/2012 11:06

I just wonder if they want to see how it goes without him. I know he's old and physically he's remarkable but he is just not up to it now. For many reasons.

suburbandream · 22/10/2012 11:08

Grin at Tess as C3PO, that was a very weird outfit. I'm getting a bit fed up with Victoria's tears every week, but I do feel that she has an unreasonable amount of expectation to live up to. FGS why should a cyclist be able to dance??? As for Brucie, I wish he would stop calling Tess "darling" when she hands over to him.
