Dancing on Ice - the part where they all fall over and cling to the walls...

[horsesforcourses]

Havent spotted a Dancing on Ice thread yet... have I missed one? The horses house is looking forward to this (having become fans last series ...) Anyone else (or am I harking back to Torvill and Dean int he Olypics and subjecting my kids to it too - its not dh's fave!! Anyone got favourites they are supporting, thoughts etc!?

I'm getting ready for it too. I do love a bit of ice dancing and yes, its probably got something to do with the 1984 winter Oympics!

I will be supporting Steve Backley, he's a local lad. At least his parents still live here and he went to school with my DB!

For the girls, I can't remember who's doing it at all!

dd is beside herself with excitement and has been asking 'is dancing on ice on?' since this morning, last year was brilliant as it was that lovely moment where she was allowed to stay up a little longe r and we would snuggle up on the sofa eating biscuits and drinking hot choc.

can't wait...!

What time is it on?

Can't wait! Can't wait! It's good fun family fodder!

YAY! Here we go!

Dd1 and I are fans too .
Maureen-interesting you say that about Steve Backley,my mum babysat him a couple of times .

Ooh! Are we locals? Steve used to live in a town begining with B! I still live there!

I never knew that Maureen!!! I also found out recently that Lee Ryan (I believe he was in Blue) used to go to my dc's school!!

I was born in a place beginning with B,then we lived in W W.(Moved back to Dorset when I was little) I think my parents knew his parents-Dad used to be in the Met.

Bomper, he went to BETHS! He was in my brothers class. My dad knew his dad too, Norris, he was in the police. Small world eh?

Just noticed the Lee Ryan thing. How exciting! Kbear obviously doesn't know that, her kids go to that school too!

Our town is just a hotbed of talent!!!!!

Scary stuff-he might have known my dad too!

Maybe...

Don't forget Boy George also lived here and Delia Smith went to that rotten secondary modern in town too! I think there was a cricketer who went to E secondary school too.

And of course the lovely Mick Jagger has a centre named after him!

And Kate Bush came from W, and Cheryl Baker!!

Are we getting excited about Lee Ryan? Dear God, standards are slipping. Tell me someone fabulous went to the school and I'll leap about with excitement but Lee sodding Ryan? sheeesh.

Bomper and Maureen, don't make me bang your heads together.

Lee Ryan? pah

ooooh Kate Bush

OK, I give in with claims to fame... that bloke from the Flash commercial went to my school - Jacko from Brush strokes that no one watched!

Kbear-I know who you mean,apparently a lot of Brush Strokes was filmed in Bournemouth. I didn't recognise him though when I served him in Boots . (He was in town doing panto at the time )

How about Kbear then? Oh no, wait a minute that was INfamous!

Quick Hijack!
theslownorris get on msn!

He used to drink in the Pots and Pans, Kbear. That was when you were at your infamous best!

Psst Maureen....

Right, enough of this nonsense, back to the dancing! Is this Christ (from Hollyoaks) gonna be really good or is he a cocky little sh*t?

Christ is in Hollyoaks? - hallelujah!
