Hi Dot - just looked up from your fusty manuscripts and seen Paul ?

I thought he looked familiar - he must've been the one who I thought did quite well and got terrible reviews in the first series. Wasnt it Annabelle or whatever who got her claws into him?

Anyway I hope he does better.

Nil desperandum as they used to say 2000 years ago.....

Is it just me that thinks Aravon is a bit strange?

[casaespana]

You look very becoming in that red dress dot.

[Hammer Head]

Oh dear. That boil that I've been meaning to have lanced suddenly seems like a less painful option than this rubbish.

[dot.hawkes]

no need for personal insults you lot, he's 22 years old and worked so hard to get to this stage, Aravon is 38 and doing this for her two daughters, I for one am very excited about the live show on saturday and will be supporting paul by voting for him, and i know he is a fanatastic dancer too.

[dot.hawkes]

actually i have just thought of a word my late mum used to use when people were unnecessarily hurtful, 'peevish'.

I will be rooting for him Dot! By the way, I think you mentioned before that he works in your shoe shop(?) I just wondered if he had to hand in his notice to do the show? It always puzzles me how contestants get around these hurdles. x

paul has been with the company 6 years, he started when he was 16 cos his sister worked on Principles upstairs. He has taken holidays and authorised leave incase he gets further in the show! Hopefully he will get his dance contract and not need to come back!!!!!
