Still brilliant, turning out to be a bit of a hit for ITV then, okay, it's not original, but I'm enjoying it.
It's a real pity that Holly is simply there for the eye-candy (well, my opinion on why she's there anyway), as she is completely dwarfed by Phillips presence,and IMO could do a decent job if given the chance. I really do feel that she should be given more duties on that show.

I guess they've gone for the "Strictly Come Dancing" rather than "Strictly Dance Fever" format. SCD uses Bruce and Tess, but SDF was just Graham?
