I don't know why Strictly had to move their time later so it clashes with X-factor. I might watch strictly and record X-factor so when i watch it i can skip the adds.
I'm still in shock that they booted Arlene off the show, I really liked her. Putting in Alesha just because Arlene was getting old was not a good move. The only experience Alesha has in dancing is what she learnt in the last year!

i totally agree! i liked alesha as a dancer when she was on the show, but she has no other experience and arlene was such an amazing judge. she knew exactly what ahe was talking about. i think that its stupid that they changed the times - its not as if they need a ratings war to get funds. they get good enough ratings, and by doing that they are just alienating the younger audience.

i hate having adverts every 15 minutes on ITV, so i normally record it and start watching 20 mins late, so i can go over the adverts.

at least it looks like Anton has a decent partner this year!

I don't know the full line-up of this years show, but the newspapers are already speculating that the dance couples are doing more than dancing, like Sonia from Eastenders and Vincent.
I never really watched X-factor before, but i started watching it only this year and i really like it. It was BGT that got me into these talent shows. It's so funny watching the people who really think they have a wonderful singing voice when really they sound like s***! :lol:

the full lineup is on the bbc website - it says who is dancing, though not who everyone is with. i just know anton has a younger partner because of an interview.
i love BGT more - the acts are insane! i love to watch the auditions.

I watched X Factor and laughed when a comment was made about what Simon wears on the show haha. Made me think of you guys as you were the ones who said it first :D

It was a shame the tennis player was voted off, i thought she had potential to get better. The boxer guy is never gonna improve though i think. He needs a miracle. Alesha must have been sad Matt didn't make it through the first votes.

My favourites to win are either Ali or chris. But Ricky is so funny!!
