The positivity post

OK I have done enough whinging, cattiness and verbose analysis of the state of the current media world. This is going to be a post full of happiness!

The best thing of all is that Strictly is back and is with us till Christmas, but here are some other reasons to raise a smile.

Tess seems to have given up all hope of being able to dance a step. (But there are still plenty of opportunities for her to insert foot into mouth with her interviews in the Tess-pit. Ricky Whittle, get a restraining order now - ask Austen Healey and his guns why).

Claudia is still delightfully mad, and is back every weekday to delight us. On which other programme would the host sprinkle batty comments such as "If in doubt, take your top off", or "They are tickling each other, it is adorable"?

ITT has featured sensible sections with Karen, Shirley Ballas, Matthew and Camilla, who have talked knowledgeably and entertainingly about progress behind the scenes. Keep all the judges away from ITT, scrap Ask Len, and ban Craig from delivering his ghost-written training updates, and my cup of joy will over floweth!

There are some real characters in the show to keep us entertained.(Would it be very wrong to develop a crush on Phil Tufnell?)

There are some potentially good dancers – and some unexpected delights such as Chris Hollins, and possibly Natalie Cassidy.

The pro dances have been sublime!
