Unless I am missing something and he's changed his hair or something? Has he been sacked? Not seen him in any professional dances for ages!! Does anyone know what has happened?

Haha! Sorry. He said something on the bbc2 show but I think I was caught up with making bedtime hot chocolates at the time so didn't get full story.

MiracleOntheM4 · 10/12/2013 18:19

I thought maybe he was being kept away to prevent him launching for Ashley what'shisname who spends the whole of judges' comments running his hand up and down Ola's hip and thigh...

ems1910 · 10/12/2013 20:13

Well Miracle, I had wondered about that!

Weknowwhoyouare · 10/12/2013 20:26

Robin is injured too isn't he?

owlbegoingmerrily · 10/12/2013 21:26

Apparently the Jordans aren't doing the tour again next year. Wouldn't surprise me if they get dropped for the 2014 series!

Clayhead · 10/12/2013 21:37

Bad back, spending his time whinging on Twitter...

Robin has a bad back too Sad

Weknowwhoyouare · 11/12/2013 08:46

I'd be surprised of they are back, though how Gobby they've been this year I'd be surprised if they plan to be back

GoodKingWencesLACK · 11/12/2013 08:53

They're getting on a bit though aren't they? Time to make way for younger, fresher talent I think.

And while we are making the changes, Brucie can retire gracefully before he is carted off set, Tess can just bloody do one and Anton and Claudia can take over as hosts...

Weknowwhoyouare · 11/12/2013 09:20

FX Karen isn't back though otherwise she'll be saying she saw Ola off. Kevin can stay though.

Weknowwhoyouare · 11/12/2013 09:22

Oh and more dancing less VT unless its properly training related, 2 dances a week (not random) so its easier to compare, better music and move pork-pie-hat-man back where he belongs.

Lovelybitofsquirrel · 11/12/2013 09:35

weknow I've been saying the same thing! Training VTs used to be just that, now they're awkward cheesy pointlessness!!
goodking my mum suggested Claudia and Ian Waite!
I had grown to like James despite fat-gate from his first series, but he's been really whingy on twitter and I think given the calibre of partners he's been given of late he can't have long to reign!
I love Kevin!!!!

birdbrain21 · 11/12/2013 10:29

hmm well over on the scd thread people have been wondering if ola is pregnant as for such a tiny skinny thing she's looking a bit bigger then usual so if she's pregnant would make sense that they drop out the tour. I hope they are happy and do have a family before it gets to late but I'll miss them compared to some of the other pros karen being especially annoying I actually quite like them

Weknowwhoyouare · 11/12/2013 10:57

I was avoiding that one birdbrain Wink

birdbrain21 · 11/12/2013 11:37

well you can't have a nice gossipy rumour spreading thread without some rumours Grin!

givemeaclue · 11/12/2013 11:50

He is nn the Christmas one so training for that

RudolphLovesoftplay · 11/12/2013 13:09

This is more like it!!! I think Brendan can do one as well, god he's annoying!! Bring back Ian Whaite and Matthew Cutler.

On another point, why does Ola wear soooo much make up when she's not actually performing? For example, at the holly oaks set VT she was caked in foundation.

OP posts:
SonorousBip · 11/12/2013 13:16

Aapparently Ashley was never going to be in the tour because of his Hollyoaks commitments, so Ola knew she would not be in the tour.

Hmmm... wonder if the judges voted him out as they do not want high performers in the series not being in the Tour. (I like a good conspiracy theory!)

Listmaker · 11/12/2013 13:50

I think Ola has bad skin - perhaps why so much makeup? When you see some of the training footage on ITT you can see her acne poor thing.

I too wonder if the Jordans will be in it much longer - James has been doing some presenting for ITT - think he fancies that career path.

Please let this be Bruce's last year...I say that every year though and it never is. Love Claudia and Tess is OK when just sticking to reading the autocue!

TinselBankWadger · 11/12/2013 13:55

James easy blatantly given a partner he wasn't going to shag this year.

TinselBankWadger · 11/12/2013 13:56

Was not easy

OodKingWenceslas · 11/12/2013 20:02

Maybe he's challenging Anton for Bruce's job?

OodKingWenceslas · 11/12/2013 20:02

Brendan can have Lens

GoodKingWencesLACK · 12/12/2013 01:14

lol Ood, I thought I had posted without realising it till I took a second look at your name Grin

Brendan would be even nastier than Stingy's birth twin Couldn't deal with two of them on the panel!

Darcy needs a slap too...yeah! She is just tooo wordy and trying too hard.

I though Ola had a bit of a bump thing going on too.

And Ashley...he is very camp. Maybe he just likes the feel of satin under his hand? Grin
