Default "Strictly" Effect?

Just noticed a lot more folks on here since it came on! It wouldn't be a bad watch if they could only get rid of the judges!

Dunno who the judges are, don't want to know who the judges are. No interest in it what so ever, same goes for the X Factor. Recording both for my other half, no desire to be around when she watches either.

Cheap to make, don't have to put any effort into it and, unfortunately, popular.

SWMBO is an avid Strictly fan - mainly because she has Ballroom dancing medals to a very high level and invariably makes the same comments about the dancing that the Judges go on to make.

I get a great deal of pleasure from watching her get so much pleasure out of a programme. And whilst it’s not really my sort of programme - then neither is Car SOS or Whealer Dealers hers.

It’s Horses for Courses surely?

My Christmas present to SWMBO was tickets for her to go (with 5 other avid Strictly fans) to the Strictly Live Show at the O2.

And that was well worth it - still got a few brownie points left from that !
