I think it is a shame really - although I will soon get used to the new set up I suppose.
Thanks for that I have just sent my complaint. I like Aleisha but it was only 2 years ago she was being taught by the professionals how can she now judge them it does not make sense.

Most probably because she's cheaper than Arlene :D
In this evening's paper they are saying the professional dancers are not happy being asked to take a pay cut on their £35,000 fee for the series. To start with I thought badly of them then thought about how much work, time and effort they have to put in and then compared it to what Bruce (who has accepted a pay cut) does for his fee of £500,000. I then realised why they were not happy.
I love dancing (salsa especially) and would love to watch 'Strictly' but can't bear Bruce Forsyth so rarely watch the programme. When I do I record it on Sky + and fast forward all Bruce's bits but it still spoils the show. What a shame the lovely Arlene has gone and not Bruce. Sadly women on TV still seem to come with a sell by date unlike the men [V] :(!
I thought about it and have just sent this to the BBC;
'It is time the BBC applied the same 'sell by date' principal to men as well as women on TV. Arlene Phillips has been replaced with a younger model, what a shame the same principal wasn't applied to Bruce Forsythe! Regardless of any sex discrimination the wrong person has been axed from this show'.
I've never sent a comment before, what fun!!!

And what a good comment your first one was, Nina! I cannot stand BF either - he should have been put out to pasture 20 years ago!
