Strictly Come Dancing 2012: Thread 6 - all sequins and tafeta and NOOO gossipy stuff getting in the way.

There.

They must be at least 6 ins. Digerd !! As you say Sparkling she's 5 ft. 8 or 9ish IMO Zoe Ball CAN"T bleedin' walk in those heels! She's worn them ALL the time as if they're her trade mark or something; shame 'cos I reckon she 's got the best dress sense of all the female presenters by a mile (apart from the killer stils.)!!

Did you see Rod Stewart with Penny Lancaster on ITT? He made this remark
"I'm with 2 lovely tall long legged blonds, I'm in my element" 0r words to that effect. Penny looked graciously taken aback, and thought he had been a bit unthinking. I think Penny is a lovely person. Tess was also a taken aback
Rod had to recognise Penny's legs from 3 others in 3 photos and he got them ALL WRONG . He picked the skinniest every time. I felt so sorry for Penny.

Hurrah. Can be in for final! Drummer of band I was seeing is projectile vomiting < tmi> and gig is postponed. ( for drummer)
and the office secret santa today got me Len's "Better Late Than Never" autobiog.
and Zoe's heels are marvelously ridiculous. Marvel at how she walks.

Digerd - ah it was all in jest. He got the second one even though she was wearing the same dress as in the first one. I liked penny when she was on she needs to wear the next dress size up though

Yes, I thought so too. But she did have a baby after her Strictly , and I was pleased she had not done a Victoria Beckham. She looked so happy and hope Rod is now old enough to not want to wander down the choosing a younger /streamlined model < dirty old man> route ever again ???

I am voting for Danni and Vincent

Kimberley and Danni on radio 2 after 8 A.M. today!! YYYY forehead!!!!!

Yes digerd I DID see dirty little Rod stewart between his "2 tall blondes" I don't reckon he lives in this world actually what TF is Penny L doing with him? Unless it's the money I said to DH she's his minder! (sorry folks for being mean can you tell I don't like R.S.!)

Pan TMI there thanks But Zoe hardly ever straightens up in the those shoes she must take them off as soon as she's off camera. (if she doesn't she'll be crippled for life!) Len has a programme on R.2. next week, I think, that sounds as if it's going to be great!!

I would vote for Danni if I could. I think Kimberley might have the edge, grace wise, but Danni has worked so hard and come so far. I wouldn't vote for DvO as I simply don't enjoy watching her and James, they almost seem too desperate to win, whereas the other three are genuinely having fun (as well as working hard).

Of course, I love Louis most especially to look at but I think Danni is a better dancer, overall.

YYY marychristmasz and your name to you and everyone!!!! DANNI TO WIN!!

Barring a complete disaster I can't see Louis not winning - he gets so many more phone votes than all of the others.

Zoe took her shoes off the other week when she was going to the studio to do the Friday interview - so I guess she actually can't walk in them for more than a couple of steps.

I must say I think Rod has aged well - he always looked like that- but the Rolling Stones - yuck. Amazed they are still alive with all their rocknroll, drink and drugs lifestyle. Penny did look very fond of Rod, I thought. Was never my type though.
Now Pasha, mmmmm. I like nice, cute and hunky.

I watched the leg thing on ITT - penny's legs are amazing! Each time I looked for who had the best legs (and it was tough competition - they're all famed for their gorgeous legs!) and hers were the ones I picked out as the best each time .

Of course they asked to use my legs but I couldn't allow them the copyright on them....

RS is so not my type (well RS could be Rodders or the Stones but applies equally to both). Pascha on the other hand.....

I am a bit worried for Louis. Think he is gonna be topless for his show dance (they mentioned it on ITT). Am I the only one that thinks it's a bad idea?

I mean, he's absolutely gorgeous but I think he'll look a bit...well...tawdry TBH. And his back tattoos may cost him a few votes. Am hoping he'll go for a open shirt instead.

Noticed Louis's big played hands practising his Salsa last night - I think it looks proper masculine myself, and won't agree with Craig if he critises them .

oops "splayed hands"

Agree Vulgar - the totally toplessness will prob lose a few votes - and maybe rightly? Topless does not a better dancer make. But... you could say Ola often sails close to the wind, for instance, but outside of the paso I'm not seeing the demand for chestyness.

showing off his chest will be good for votes - it's mostly menopausal housewives and randy old ladies who vote

Hmmm...

lol Nancy - that'll be me then!

Subtle.

Men with bare chests remind me of strippers- no not keen myself. Open shirt much more tasty and provocative. Gives a better line too.

Harry Judd always had his pecs out....had me dribbling into my PG Tips

Gawd. I'm too young for this.

Yes Digerd. Strippers. Yuk!
