Bearing in mind I'm time-delayed here, I just have to say that whenever I hear "Putting on the Ritz" I think of the seminal version in the film Young Frankenstein.

"Ooootenoneriiiiiizzzz!!!" (stomp stomp)

Trent Whiddon will not be missed.
I would have liked to have seen Yvetta back though.

What a pretentious acensorede Gregory Porter is. And what was with the winter headgear? silly

He can't sing either. He just talks over the music smile

Anyone else notice a very prominent lateral "seam" in Bruno's hair? What's that then?

Would you indulge me by taking 4 minutes to listen to 'No love dying'?

Well, it didn't take the Telegraph long to post their review of the show. In fact, given it was posted at 8.35pm, wasn't that during it? Or, at least, moments after.

Wouldn't surprise me if Ainsley Harriot was porking his dancing partner by the end of this series. There is flirting and then theres basically gagging for it and both of them are tickling each others tastebuds.

That Helen George is going to prove just plain annoying.

Sadly the young lasses seem to be all a bit gushy/luuvie. Hopefully Anita will rise above that.

I'm sure I saw scary-eyed Joanne "Kevin's sister" Clifton amongst the professional dancers during the show last night, but she's not paired with any of the celebs. Does that mean she's been demoted to the more general "dance troupe" or were my eyes simply deceiving me?

Duly indulged. 30 seconds was enough for me, but hey, it's only my opinion. Which is what forums are about.

I like him, but the hat's starting to look a bit daft, esp in the context of last night, so he does need to learn how to sing without it.

Hang on. I quite fancy her.

There are always the odd Pro in the troupe that can cover in case of a nasty to one of the others. I think she's just now one of the family.

Joanne joins the professional dancers on 'It Takes Two' on Friday evenings and also in the group dances.

I don't think Natalie would stoop that Lowe.

Anyway that new dancer Ori has a cracking figure, she should be good to watch.

Betting now that Peter Andre is in the final and an absolute firm fan favourite too.

Jeremy Vine seemed pretty nice too and I weirdly love listening to his voice!

Yep. I think RS4s are an overweight piece of Audi crap...I drove one once on an airfield autotest. It was totally useless, understeered, brakes faded. No amount of pumped up body, big alloys and oversized exhaust could make up for that fact. But but hey, it's only my opinion. Which is what forums are about.

You seem to have taken his comment pretty personally. Are you actually Gregory Porter?
