While there's no doubt that Strictly Come Dancing is faring rather better in the TV ratings than X-factor, it is perhaps worth pointing out that it is not immune from having in its line-up some dire contestants. Clearly on X-Factor there should be a massive cull, and alongside Jake, who exited on Sunday, should have been Only The Young and Stereo Kicks, meaning that Louis could bugger off as well. Also, Lola Saunders, Paul Akister and Stevi Richie are superfluous, along with Jack Walton. This could leave us with a more reasonable handful.
On SCD, the same has applied for a while. The farce that saw exits for some of the better dancers ahead of Scott Mills and Judy Murray proves that the scoring system is as stupid as the voting element of the general public. Simply preposterous, I'd say.
Royal Mail Stamps - No Value
I cannot fathom why everyone is so jolly about Judy's presence on this show, and it's frankly embarrassing. I asked for 18 stamps from the Post Office the other day, and when I queried the price, I was told they have no value, and there was no hope of items reaching their final destination. "Surely a complete waste of my time, then?" I asked. "Most definitely," said the Postmistress. When I queried the process for larger pre-Christmas packages, I was sold another six stamps
Large Letter
Along with Thom, we should have seen the back of Scott and Judy, of course, along with Alison and Simon. Others who seem to be making up the numbers are the middle ranking Steve, Sunetra and Mark. So just like X-Factor, there's no need for the pain associated with watching and listening to the hopeless hopefuls. Only in the last six weeks of either marathon competition is it really worth bothering to take an interest.
By the way, at least the BBC will save money on make-up next weekend, as Judy's Halloween look is in place already.
