Darren was appearing on Celebrity Mastermind, with his specialist subject as Star Wars. I do like it when mysteries are solved. I was touched as well to see that his nominated charity was the Caron Keating Foundation, a lovely nod towards his Series 3partner, Gloria Hunniford.
So Ricky and Natalie have been short changed again in terms of interview time. I guess this was better than a phone interview, but whisked off behind the scenes to do an interview straight after the dramatic events of Saturday, which saw them plummet from top of the leaderboard to dance off, must have been hard. They had not had time to reflect and formulate their responses, and James Jordan, although very good, is still learning on the job as an interviewer. Mind you, all the pros on ITT today did seem to lean over backwards to praise him, so maybe the balance was slightly redressed.
Choreography Corner doesn't have quite the same sparkle without Karen, but Erin and Ian still had plenty of interesting things to say. I thought Erin made a good point in saying that Ali's tango probably had too much content, and that her centre of weight is too high.
She also cited Ricky as one of the best SCD boys ever, which coming from the pro who partnered Colin and Austin is high praise indeed. Ian chimed in with the fact that Ricky is way out ahead, and is concentrating on the finer points, whereas some boys are still just remembering their steps. Well, BBC it is too late now - you have made the decision for a two person final, so you have to live with the consequences that one of the most talented males may not make it into that final.
And please - can someone change Len's script for the Argentine Tango? I am fed up with hearing gauchos, sweaty, pampas....etc, etc, year upon year upon year. How about something about the contemporary tango scene in Buenos Aries? Just an idea....
