Well what did you think? Quite a good crop of performances tonight, it's a shame one of them has to go this evening.

It was an excellent series opener. I just don't know who will go.

Yes I enjoyed watching it all though I thought the judges scores were a little low for everyone. I thought they deserved more.
However, I am only watching it because of Bill Turnbull from Breakfast so hopefully he will go onto win!

Fiona Phillips only got 11 points!! Shocked She must be the first one out surely?

Apparently, according to DS, most of the dancers have injured themselves.

Here in BBC Prime land, they are currently showing the original series of SCD, the one that Natasha Kaplinsky won.

Now, I don't particularly care much for the lady, but the episode they showed last night was the one where she danced a fierce and terrifying Spanish style Paso Doble.

It was awesome.

I wouldn't have Vanessa Feltz and Jenny Eclair in there - 'standby' celebs.

I'd love to see Terry Wogan as a contestant but he never would though.

On another note, did anyone see Bremner, Bird and Fortune the other night? Rory did a fantastic impression of Brucie and his camp glances to camera. Laughing

It's no surprise X-Factor is ahead of Strictly Come Dancing even though it's so much rubbish!

Firstly, the show hasbeen allowed to gather a pace over the past few months so Strictly Come Dancing has been on a loser from the word go.

Secondly, the X-Factor is not only trailed at very possible moment on ITV channels but there are so many "Extra" programmes that the station is cleverly producing a real momentum. The BBC needs to give SCD more of a push and it will take the lead easily in my view!!!
