    Anyone watch Strictly Come Dancing tonight? Care to comment on the steam traction shown in Nicky and Karen's dance?

    I for sure have never seen anything like it before! :wacko:

    Its on the iplayer from 1.02.45 to save non-watchers having to go through it. You just have to see it to believe it! :)

    It's a reality dance programme, not a steam railway themed show, but it is a bit better than that jungle thingy thats on:behindsofa::behindsofa::behindsofa:

    I can't believe you've owned up to watching Strictly on here!.

    That said, only things I tend to watch on Saturday now tend to be Merlin and MOTD.

    Well its not through choice I have to say. Just happened to be on whilst having Tea and as I dont have control of the TV licence, I have to put up with whats on there! OK point taken, its a reality show, but it just beggars believe how wrong these TV jerks can get it.

    Nah I was watching Villa and Arsenal on ESPN, now that was like watching paint dry, but I eventually had to relent and let "she who must be obeyed" watch the remainder of SCD ( hope Victor does not get to read this ):heh::heh::heh:

    Tough choice isn't it, watching a load of people prance round, who haven't really got the talent to be doing what they are, making fools of themselves infront of thousands, or change the channel and put Strictly on ;)

    Too late mate, :mmph: I'm shocked.

    The solution to SWMBO is :- 1 cellar/spare bedroom, 1 chair, 1 small flat screen TV. Job sorted. "off you go my love, watch any rubbish you want". THEN you are free, you have control of the remote. You're happy, she's happy.

    Strictly come dancing????? :frusty: :censored:

    A screenshot would be fine, so long as Bruce isn't in it.

    Basically they were doing a dance routine which involved the old Wild West 'damsel tied to a railway track' thing and had an animation of a train coming towards them. Problem is, they've obviously searched Google for a 'steam engine' graphic and ended up with an animated traction engine pulling the train.....

    David knowing your football allegiance I can't understand why you're watching MOTD. After all it's going to be many years before your mob appear on it.
    I'd have thought you'd be far more interested in the goings on in the Hong Kong judicial system this week.

    Don't worry Salty, give it till May and you'll have to wait up for the Football league Show too :behindsofa:

    Good to see your still around occasionally.
