The past winners dance was a fantastic idea - I loved it! No idea why James & Ola did a Cha Cha out of the blue, perhaps to entertain us? I hope they don't include another John Sergeant next year - it isn't fair on the professional partner, or the other celebrities. We hope Brian Fortuna will be back, have to wait and see if he is asked back around June time next year. He danced in the States version (Dancing with the Stars) and got knocked out early on, it is a huge honour for him to come to England and take part in the show that started all the others off - and the British public love him! :D It Takes Two will be back next year with the 2009 series of Strictly Come Dancing, that’s when you’ll get to see Claudia Winkleman again.

]]> Comment on Sick TV by Obviously not Strictly dancing « tv dinners http://itstv.wordpress.com/2008/03/07/sick-tv/#comment-2279 Obviously not Strictly dancing « tv dinners Mon, 17 Nov 2008 12:05:50 +0000 http://blog.victoriacolios.co.uk/2008/03/07/sick-tv/#comment-2279 [...] Strictly not on TV, this series, filmed between Forever Summer and Nigella Express, has only been shown in US, Australia etc. It is an exact half-way point between the more serene earlier series and the latest camp outings from Nigella (don’t get me wrong, she’s entertaining and likeable in both). She’s as enthusiastic as ever, not OTT, and the recipes are from my favourite book of hers - FEAST is a must for any cook, and Nigella’s Christmas book is pretty great too. You can order the DVD from Australia, if you have a multi-region DVD player. Be warned though - to cater for the cultural cross over Nigella has to say, in one breath, ‘Add your spring onions/ scallions/green onions’ which at first is disconcerting. I’m used to all the US translations from watching Barefoot Contessa!

Whenever she's on screen you find yourself praying for the equally bad Jo Whiley. I was seething when she said she loved the National.

I run a boutique and find that offering the <a href="http://www.istylista.com" rel="nofollow">personal stylist and shopper</a> service is an absolute winner as you basically dictate to them what suits them... and that's what they want to hear! I found a great online personal stylist website called www.iStylista.com which taught me a few basics about myself and has allowed me to pass on to my customers.
