[TV] Strictly

[Barnet Seagull]

Watching with the Mrs. Took a disliking to that Nigel bloke, comes across as a bit of a knob.

Said to her, i bet he's a Palace fan. Just googled it and he only bloody is.

I reckon I can spot a stripey from miles off. In fairness, i could have probably picked it from his name.

Strictly what, exactly?

Strictly no trainers and no jeans?

 

[Dave the OAP]

Great to see Amy back though

[Mr Bridger]

Didn’t watch it as just got home from the game, but heard in the week Angela Rippon was doing the Argentine tango and there was gonna be lifts involved. I immediately thought of this….

 

[AmexRuislip]

I thought Strictly was for those people who yearn for a bygone age of Come Dancing, pineapple and cheese on cocktail sticks, vol-au-vents, Babysham and corporate tupperware parties.

 

[Weststander]

Went off the prog years ago and the relentless BBC propaganda promoting it from mid August.

Angela Rippon is quite incredible. 79 years old and one of the best in the competition. I’d take her flexibility at that age! Actually at my age!

Very much this. Been limping along for last few years and needs to be put out of it's misery.

It’ll remain as BBC TV need the viewers. R2, R5 and Breakfast drip feed its hyperbole from August to Xmas.

Thank god in the modern age there are countless other TV options.

And holiday 77 with Judith Chalmers.

Indeed, couldn’t help think when she did that leg above the head in the first dance, her other hand was at the bottom trying to hold in innards in.

In true NSC pedantry style, I think you'll find that Judith Chalmers was a host on the ITV holiday show Wish You Were Here whereas the BBC Holiday (insert year) programme would have been fronted by Cliff Michelmore. Maybe I should join the dullard thread

Pedant alert. Holiday 77 was cliff michelmore. Judith Chalmers was Wish you were here

You guys....

And the Eastbourne Borough connection to Strictly?

 

[Hamilton]

Met Diane on the platform at Hassocks a couple of weeks back. She was charming.

Strictly is great. If I wanted to watch Eastern European girls dancing in skimpy outfits on a Saturday evening anywhere else it’d cost a fortune.
