    Oi! If you're going to criticise Strictly, which is the greatest show on telly and the only way any sane person can cope with the darkening evenings in the run up to Christmas every year, then, sir, I shall have to ask you to step outside!

    As penance for your sacrilege, you are required to watch Darcey's jive with Ian Waite. Several times.

    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    I’m sure that there is point where Darcy Bussell’s legs end but after watching that (several times!!!!) I can’t exactly define where that is.

    The final scene stop me of wondering that,as for Strictly my ex missus loved it unmissable telly for her,as while i would sooner have my finger nails pulled out,that and the X Factor were on level terms for me

    I'm going with Mr/Mrs E Draven on this. I would never have seen the Darcy jive because I would never watch it.
    It's all part of the celebrity culture that I loathe.
    However, it means that Darcy does not qualify for this thread and I never said she did anyway.

    Jilly: Very inexplicable (personally).

    I also suspect that the picture is Jilly from a fair few years ago and that todays version might well be inexplicable..

    Bland. Nothing special.

    I've done better than that with Donna from the chippy at Sparkles nightclub many a time. Bet Darcy didn't have to put up wth sticky foot carpet either.

    Philippa Forrester.

    I agree there!! Aged pretty well.

    Another one is the cruise ship singer Jane Mcdonald.

    Also -maybe a bit odd ..Victoria Derbyshire. Just something about her that i really cannot explain.

    McDonald? Not a chance. She looks like she would eat yiu breakfast. And I mean that literally.

    Derbyshire - meh. But Joanna Gosling, on the other hand...

    And whilst we're on the subject of news milfs, I've always thought Nina Hossain was outrageously hot, but I appear to be a distinct minority there, so maybe that counts as inexplicable?

    There is no way that a crush on Emily Maitlis is inexplicable.

    Agreed, don't think Philipa Forrester fits the inexplicable bit either. Made me think of the eclipse coverage she did and the guy in the studio commented they looked cold and Philipa was cuddling her co-host who'd just come in his shorts.

    And that, my friend, is why she's deserving of being mentioned in this thread.

    how about that Nina from the kiddies' programme.

    Now she's utterly wonderful.

    not sure if she had been mentioned before.

    Not inexplicable in the slightest!

    Remember watching her in the broomcupboard on CBBC when my kids were younger, brightened up my day!

    Why did you watch her in the broom cupboard? Did you need a bit of privacy?

    Yay! It's Shipley. Nice paint job.

    Back OT: According to my vague memory and the search function - no.

    I don't think that's inexplicable.
