You dont know she started the rumours, shes rich and well known in her own right, she doesn't need to jump on the back of the Beckams...unlike that Rebecca Loos woman.

I'm orf to XF 

Last comment from me whilst they're faffing on XF.

 

Vids, Rebecca Loos has nothing to do with this, so let's not deflect from Jenkins here.  And I DO know where the rumours started; it wasn't the Brylcream Boy or his missus.

I'm shortly off to much more erudite things. 'How the Bismark sank HMS Hood' on Channel4 at 8pm.

Rebecaa Loos did what your accusing Jenkins of doing, so she does have a part in this (forgive the pun).

 

I promise you now, Jenkins or her managment got wind of an up and coming tabloid (false) story of her and David Beckham, and she got in there first and shot it down.

James little speech tonight before the dance off.

Semi Final and The Grand Final
Semi Final On the Saturday 15th December Semi Final, all remaining couples will dance twice. The judges will score in the usual way and the audience will vote for their favourite/s when we open the lines. Once the judges’ scores and audience votes have been combined, the two couples with the lowest combined scores will have to dance again in the dance off where the judges will choose the couple they wish to save from elimination.
The Grand Final
The Grand Final of Strictly Come Dancing 2012 will be on Saturday 22nd December. The remaining couples will all dance again but this time the judges' scores will be for reference only. The eliminations and the ultimate winner of Strictly Come Dancing 2012 will be decided purely by the public vote. Phone lines will open after all couples have danced for the first time. Lines will then be frozen at a time announced on the programme. The couple with the fewest votes at this point will be eliminated at the start of the Results show (on that same day). In the very unlikely event of two couples being tied at the bottom of the phone vote, Head Judge Len Goodman will have the casting vote so that one couple will still be eliminated. The phone lines will then be reopened but all the votes already cast for the remaining couples will still count and will be carried over. The remaining couples will dance once more for your votes in the Results show before the lines are closed and the winner announced.

Thanks Erinp Let's hope the GBP do the right thing and vote off Lisa, followed by Denise!

From the Daily Mail

There have been criticisms throughout the years of Strictly Come Dancing contestants coming into the show with an unfair advantage, but rarely more so than those directed at one of this year’s favourites, Denise Van Outen.

It’s her experience on the West End musical stage — she starred in Chicago, among other major shows — that puts her ahead, say viewers, giving her a practised style that her clumsier rivals could never hope to match.

Van Outen has decided to confront her critics head-on, pointing out that not only did she have a dangerous wobble last week, when, instead of being ranked in the top three as usual, she found herself in the bottom-two dance-off, and she is by no means the only surviving contestant with showbusiness credentials.

‘Dani Harmer went to stage school. She is half my age so attended more recently. Lisa Riley went to theatre school, so did Kimberley Walsh. And Fern Britton did the Strictly Christmas Special before doing the show.

‘I went to a dance school when I was a child to do ballet, tap and modern, but I haven’t danced since then. I have never partner-danced in my life. It is a rule on Strictly that you are not allowed to take part if you have had any previous Latin or ballroom lessons. They are very strict about that.

‘As for people who think I danced all the way through Chicago, well, if they had seen the show, they’d know I played Roxie Hart, who doesn’t have the dancing part, she just does one number at the end with a hat and cane. Because I have done West End shows people think of me as being an all-singing, all-dancing, all-round entertainer.

‘But Tell Me On A Sunday, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s show, is all song. In Rent I didn’t dance, and there was no dancing in Legally Blonde. So I do feel it is a little bit unfair. What I do on a Saturday night is a result of putting in so many hours of training.

‘James [Jordan], my professional dance partner, always sticks up for me because he knows I really do struggle with it. It’s just that I won’t give up until I get it right. It’s so technical I find it hard to pick up. I end up treading on James’s toes and getting my arms all twisted.

‘The key to doing a good dance is to make it look comfortable and easy and effortless. On Monday and Tuesday it is always a bit of a car crash, on Wednesday the steps start to sink in and on Thursday we will rehearse sometimes from 10am to 10pm.

‘We all say it would be lovely to be in the final and have the opportunity to win. But I understand it is a TV show, a popularity contest. So I don’t mind about not winning. To me it is not about that, it is about enjoying the dancing. I don’t know how I am coming across on camera.’

^^^^^ I can't take to the woman

see... I'm ok with that.   I'm just not ok with everyone saying she's a professionally trained dancer and the others aren't - when there's nothing in it really.    I was reading some of the readers comments under it and there was even an ex dancer saying she couldn't dance with a partner.  Lots of people saying they don't like Denise though, which is fair enough, but be honest enough to say that's why they want her out and not because she's got some invented advantage over the others   

 

*waits for the Bazza army to kick my arse* 

I did think she had an advantage until it was pointed out to me that she had no more than most of the other contestants.

I am not a fan of James  Jordan and it was pathetic to bring up Denise's daughter last week just before the dance off.

I also think Denise has done herself no favours having this article in the Mail ,bad PR imo .

 

 

Yeah, i agree with that bit Erin

 

*rubs stingy backside*

* comes in and boots Kaffy up the jacksy !!* TBH I really didn't know much about her before Strictly , so my opinions have been formed as the show progressed, but that article has shown her to be a right whinger, who seems to be blaming everyone else rather than herself ! As for the dancing , I'm sorry but IMO no one could dance as well as she did from day 1 and not have considerable experience ... But I do admit to being a little squiffy right now . Anyway , I won't be able to join you ( or watch) the semi finals So I expect you all to post a full running commentary Hope you have an enjoyable evening ...and Lisa or Denise to go

Evening all

Evening!

Surely we'll see the back of Lisa tonight

Hello everyone.

Evening all  

tess needs to sack her hair dresser

Evening everyone.

Kimberley channelling Jessica Rabbit tonight

She looks good though.

I wouldn't bank on it. given how things have gone so far.

Lisa is channelling an explosion in a paint factory

She looks lovely  

So true

That dress is horrible

What is Dani wearing - is it some sort of dress fusion?

That wasn't my favourite of theirs.   It didn't seem 'flowing' to me it was like a series of sequences.  i can't explain but I know what Imean

That was OK I guess, but nothing startling.

and yes.. that dress is awful

I know what you mean, and I agree.

I still hope they are in the final two, along with Flavia and Louis.

Yes Kaffy, I know exactly what you mean!
