Confesses to liking Strictly Come Dancing - though I always record it & FF so I don't have to listen to Brucie  A soulmate, I knew it!  I did a terrible thing on Friday evening - I've never ever voted although I've been watching Strictly for about 3 years (don't know how I never discovered it before)... anyway, I was so disgusted by the way Len Goodman in particular, but all the judges, spoke to Matt Baker and how they marked him compared to other performances, that I must have voted 30-40 times to help him get thru to the final  He's not faultless and I've been very upset by his partner's "choices" and over-vividness, but he has great potential and he's such a lovely young man, I was disproportionately upset considering it's "only a TV show". Kara Tointon from Eastenders is a beautiful girl and a lovely dancer, but I do feel she's had early dance training so she's in a different league. As for smiley Pamela overwhelmed with her success  A smooth dancer but her partner has been very clever with the choreography and the judges have overmarked her something rotten  = = = = I did record X-Factor *blush* for dear Perpy's sake, but I honestly can't stomach it. I'm old and curmudgeonly. scylla |

Scylla, I feel exactly the same as you do about all 3 of them.

I heartily agree with everything you've said about Strictly Scylla, poor Matt, they wiped the floor needlessly with him IMHO. How totally crushing for anyone, was delighted to see he came back fighting last night, he's also had my vote from the start . . . I don't in this case think he's had the best professional dancer to showcase his natural dancing ability. I can forgive you for not watching the X factor.  |

It's so touching that you've supported my Strictly views, Chrissie and Perpy Isn't it lovely when people agree with one? (I deleted the poll thread cos I got it wrong. I shan't bother to do another one. We can have a scandalise about the result next weekend.) scylla |

I really thought Mr C would've devised a way to make the boy group win - I was surprised they didn't. Didn't vote for anyone - probably because I didn't watch it till next day, complete with fast-forward!!! Strictly -I really think Pamela, as an older lady, has done well so, being one myself, I shall vote for her!!!  MM |

Chrissie, you didn't upset me at all, honest!!! I just thought I'd have another go at it when I was "up" but now dear Perpy's done it for me. Wish she hadn't now that I see not all of us are "on side" Only joking scylla |
