By pleasing some, one might alienate the majority. And vice versa.Not that this forum is a fair representation of the UK over 50 population, but it does seem to have alienated a significant majority on here!
Ok, Dad!! Ha!!

Every TV channel is trying to boost it's viewing figures and we should all be glad they are, if we want to continue watching TV. Making TV programmes costs a lot of money so, if we want to be entertained each day, in our own homes, for a relatively small price, we either pay the licence fee or put up with even more boring ads!

It just takes the focus off the dancing and defeats what the show is all about. It's supposed to be a competition between male and female couples.
Exactly!
For the record (Reg!), I am not anti gay, I am not a bigot and I do not have a chip! I see nothing wrong with gay marriage, why shouldn't they be allowed to get married if they are in a loving relationship?

Wasn't it the BBC who turned a blind eye to the Jimmy Savile shenanigans?
