Strictly Come Dancing

I sit through this rubbish to keep my wife company whilst she watches it. I'd rather be anywhere else and I mean anywhere else. It is appalling and the judges are some of the worst examples of human beings ever to be on prime time TV. Plus this drivel is funded by the TV licence which makes it even worse.

Having watched and enjoyed Strictly for many years I am disappointed in this year's show. It's getting very tired. What is all the fuss about over Angela Rippon. I don't feel she's been tested yet with the more complex dances. I believe the Strictly producers are being selective. Also, let's not forget she has a dance history. A definite advantage in my view. Get her out. Just look at some of the work the contestants with no dance background are producing. They are the real winners in my book. I'm not a producer so I'm unable to make any suggestions but I feel it needs a completely new formula.

I will admit I don't think it is the best show on earth, it does get a bit too serious at times with the emotional training sessions and sometimes the wrong person gets voted off, two excellent example are Gabby Logan and Spoony. But the reason why I love this is because it is entertaining, what with Bruce Forsyth reciting his corny but hilarious jokes and pratfalls. One of my favourites was when he likened judge Craig Revel Horwood to a sour lemon. Here you see some truly talented dancers, honestly Jill Halfpenny and Alesha Dixon were amazing, and not so talented dancers, namely Quentin Willson and possibly Fiona Phillips. I loved the dresses, and the choreographies, and through the programme I got a lot of tips of how to dance a particular dance. And where would we be without the judges? The hissable Craig Revel Horwood, the sincere Arlene Phillips, the encouraging Len Goodman and the eccentric Bruno Tonioli with his increasingly silly comments, like "It's like a Robin Reliant with a Ferrairi". My favourite Craig criticism has to be "D-U-L-L, Dull!", and some of the celebrities make some truly hilarious comebacks, most notably Julian Clary's "You Wouldn't Know a Passo Doble if you sat on one". All in all, despite the flaws, this is a very entertaining programme, that people aspired to dance, should give it a try. 8/10 Bethany Cox.

I love Leighton, he is a fantastic dancer, a nice person, he and Nikita are a great partnership, but.... He is obviously a trained dancer, he has ballet moves, and can move his body like a trained dancer and is currently in the West End.

Strictly is either a professional and an amateur, or it is a professional show.

The organisers have got it so wrong this year. People like Annabel who has been dancing her socks off, a true amateur, have got to compete with a professional duo.

If they win it will be a travesty.

It is putting me off watching the results on Sunday !

All amateurs or at least people who haven't danced for years, next year please. Back to the original script.

This program like most of its kind has become boring and repetitive .same stuff every year .you get a few true celebs but alot of wannabe celebs that noone really cares for. BBC charges a TV license to watch the same things over and over .the only good things on BBC are their exclusive dramas which are good , as for all this reality stuff , enough is enough BBC don't bore us anymore
