Getting them to laugh at Brucie's gags might be a taller order...still he beats human grand national runner Tess Daly.
That could have been me. Endearing/brilliant laugh aside she's a nice girl and probably secretly agrees she's been promoted above her ability.mummywhycantieatcrayons wrote:but Dixon has nothing to add to the show. Have always found her a bit gobby and annoying though (I can't remember who it was in this thread, but how anybody can find that grating laugh endearing is beyond me)
This will put you off the show for life, Mr Tango, I guarantee it.

People calling for Anton Du Beke to be sacked for using the word 'paki' off air.

Seems rather over the top... obviously we should try and avoid language that has racist undertones, but surely this was harmless enough.

If he'd said it in a football stadium it'd be a more serious matter, or am I just cynical.

Du Beke made a very silly error. He admitted that, appologised to the person concerned. She accepted his apology and their relationship isn't affected by it. Should be matter closed as it's no one else's business.
It all happened a fortnight previously and would have been all over with...except someone saw fit to leak it to the press at that time and suddenly it was outrage time. Sorry, but human error will happen. Let he/she who is without sin etc. I've seen the same thing happen personally and one guy's life ruined by a moment of temper. Put it to bed. At times like this a lot of very moralistic people with short memories appear on the scene.

Aye agree. Had he said it live on air, different matter. But as a private "joke" where it seems no offense was taken, then what the hell does that have to do with anyone else?TANGODANCER wrote:Du Beke made a very silly error.

What an absolute mindfuck of a programme that is.
It's completely devoid of any semblence of intelligence.
Bruno, you disappoint me to the point of despair sometimes.
