I can't believe I'm driven to write about this, but Strictly is quite interesting. I don't know what it is that makes me like it - could be the sparkly costumes, the expanse of naked flesh, the talented dancers or is it just that it's really good entertainment? I've taken a shine to Louis and Flavia, mainly because he impressed me at the Olympics and also I quite fancy Flavia. Louis is not bad either. Just joking!
I'm sure he's going to win, because he's a real nice guy, closely followed by Kimberley of Girls Aloud fame who's also not bad, but I always remember her close up at one of their gigs where they popped up on a mini stage right near us, and I thought she looked a bit ropey. I sound a bit fussy I suppose, but heck, I am.
Results soon, and I will be genuinely upset if Louis isn't at least in the top 2, preferably top. I'm not sure it's fair to compare it wth other reality shows such as X Factor where amateurs try and grab fame and fortune but everyone does, so my take is that the 2 shows are completely different due to their competitors. One has amateurs wanting to find fame with judges trying to grab their own slice of attention to boost their own ego whilst the other has 'real' celebs already good at what they do and judges who know what they are talking about and do not (usually) pay to the audience. Talking of judges, I've also been impressed with Darcy Bussell - a really talented dancer with an intelligent, yet entertaining comment to make. All in all, a jolly good family show.
And the winner is (wait 10 minutes)...Louis and Flavia!
What did I tell you? I think I have something in my eye....
