Christmas Special? (was it?)
SCD Christmas Special
Happy Christmas
No doubt Suzanne will be doing a full run down on the excitement that was the Strictly Come Dancing final some time soon but in the mean time on behalf of both of us I’d like to wish everyone a very merry christmas!
Paul & Suzanne

Javine backs Alesha
This is from another website - I don’t suppose they will mind! The cheek of her! The least she could do would be to keep her head down! (or keep out of Alesha’s life at least)
Singer Javine Hylton is backing Alesha Dixon to win this year’s Strictly Come Dancing.
Dixon lost her husband, MC Harvey, to Hylton last November, after the pair were revealed to be having an affair.
Hylton is now pregnant with Harvey’s child, but has said that she would like Dixon to be happy as well, and wants her to win the dance contest final at the weekend.
She told the Mirror: “Alesha is doing brilliantly and good on her.
“It might sound strange for me to say this but I genuinely want her to be happy and I really hope she wins.”
Talking about her affair, she said: “I’d do it all again. The only regret I have is the hurt I caused. But Harvey and I wouldn’t be together without hurting people.”
Hope Javine remembers the old saying “what goes around, comes around”

Pluckin’ farce - SCD Results Show 16 Dec
Sorry readers, but my ramblings are not going to be uplifting tonight! Tonights result was as expected, but I still feel saddened by what has happened.
It was always to be this way though. Firstly, think back to last night and Aleshas AT, what can you remember? I bet whatever it is is dressed in red? - but what about Matt and Gethin?? Did you look at them at all - or did your eyes keep drawing back to the ladies - I know mine did. In that dance particularly, Alesha was competing against Flavia and Camilla- not Matt and Gethin!! Secondly, Gethin’s Paso - the tune was just too fast and did not lend itself to any of the halts, poses and attitude that is needed in this dance. Gethin did nothing wrong, but was let down by the routine which the speed of the music dictated! Finally, Matt’s waltz. Yes, it was very nice - but it was no better or no worse than a lot of waltzes we have seen over the years and I personally feel it did not warrant 4 tens! I was very disappointed in Len and his one man standing ovation - Judges are meant to be impartial, Len. Sorry but that was anything but!!!! HOWEVER - a thought came to me last night when thinking about these 4 tens. I don’t normally believe in conspiracy theories but heres what I reckon…
The Judges want Alesha to win. It is quite plain that Gethin is getting the vast majority of the public vote (he must have, or he would have been in a dance off by now) Craig and the gang do NOT want to take the chance of having Alesha in a final with Gethin, in case everyone votes for Gethin to win?! They needed Gethin out of the way, and the best way to achieve this was to keep Matt out of the dance off this week - SIMPLE AS!
As for the rest of the show. Well, what can I say!
1) I really cannot abide baby ballroom kids - and this is speaking as a mother of a dancing child! This lot would put people off dancing. Bruce said “everyone’s started dancing” - not this lot! they are from dancing dynasties I reckon - why can’t the BBC go to a normal dance school and see how kids learn to dance.
2) Victor and Hannah - YUK - I like my dancers to dance - I thought I was watching Cirque Du Celeb on Sky, only for the fact it finished last week!! BUT I will forgive Hannah a lot, remember she had to put up with Chris Parker.
3) Lilia’s and Ola’s trousers. They looked like something a person might buy from the back pages of the News of the World!
AND THE WORST THING - To add some weight to the debate as to whether singers mime on SCD, the look on James Blunt’s face when he looked down at his guitar to see the plectrum stuck behind the strings, which would of course “mute” any noise coming out… yet there was noise?!? Miming on SCD, surely not?!
Thats all folks!

Leticia’s Impossible Dream - SCD Results 9 December
Last night, we saw some super dancing, some lacklustre but lucky ad-libbing, and a couple of car crash moments! But, don’t these four read my posts! Stamping, necks, kicks and flicks - ring any bells??? And as for Matt - well, what can I say? I really felt for him, it is horrible when you go blank - I think it is all too much for him! (Wonder what he is going to be like if the sympathy vote gets him as far as the final?) Best get himself some “Rescue Remedy” sharpish!
This evening watching the results show, I can’t say I was totally surprised at who went out, and I think she expected it was going to be her as well, but it is true to say I didn’t expect to see Alesha in the dance off?! I bet it was a bit of a shock for her as well - goes to show regardless of how good you are and how much the judges rate you, the public can make or break you. But what can the girl do - she hasn’t offended anyone, been showy or full of herself in any way. Us phone voters are a funny breed! It is well known that we vote for those we think of as “friends” or those who we feel sorry for. People doing okay on their own do tend to get ignored.
Flavia looked like she was going to have a heart attack when they were called through “in no particular order”. Still, what this does mean is that we will ge to see Flavia and Matt do an Argentine Tango, and that should be really interesting! Speaking of Argentine Tango, how fabulous was that display by Vincent and Flavia - it’s just as well they are a couple, it was very intense to say the least …………………. I thought the show dancing was fab, both by the German formation team, and our own anton/erin, brendan/nicole.
Did anyone notice there were more than a few bits of dance dress flying off onto the floor tonight?
I hope and pray that they do away with the dance-off in future series. Much as I enjoy seeing the Sunday show with the professional dancers, I feel saddened that people have to dance when they KNOW they are going home. I too, am the age to play the Godmother and not Cinderella - You did us old girls proud Leticia! Good luck.
Best judge - Len. glad to see him back on form. Jet lag cleared perhaps?
