  • I'm with you SGL & David, is all a bit farcical. I suppose it sorts out viewing figures for two nights for them.

    Agree David, do they really think we don't notice that the audience all have the same clothes on! 

    When it first started the results show was later the same evening, why don't they do that now image

     

    Well, Lily, I doubt if there could have been a more glaring example than last week (Halloween)....... did they really expect that we believed that they removed all that make-up & costume on Saturday night and re-applied the whole lot again on Sunday?? image

  • Strictly must be a real money spinner for the Beeb......raised an eyebrow the other night when Zoey announced on Strictly ITT, a comp where the prize was the dress designer's used sketches. The entry cost  was £2.50 + normal fees per text.....this is far in excess of anything I've known before, where the prizes were exotic holidays and so on costing thousands of pounds.

  • Thanks, Dove...I knew about that. Thing is, I don't totally trust Aunty to be truthful. image

    Results show takes place on Sunday? image ...I won't even mention Blue Peter. image

  • Well, their accounts have to be audited and their full financial reports are published online http://www.bbc.co.uk/annualreport/2014/executive/finances/auditors-report.html

    and it was stated on the BBC website as far back as 2008 that the Results Show which is broadcast on Sunday is recorded on Saturday after the voting has closed.
