    What Katie Did Next

    Well Strictly Come Dancing of course!!!! As I'm sure you all secretly know the launch was last night and our heroine was paired with Anton (no relation) who usually gets the Anne Widdicombes of this world. He seems delighted and the bookies seem to be impressed by her progress. Honest Joe Coral had her at 45/1 and she is now 16/1 ..... I suggest you invest before she shortens further.....

    I wasn't aware that dancing was cause of vertebral collapse!

        Happens to us all, Anton - I always considered myself to be 5'10" but at my old man's health check was told I was 1 metre 75

          Whose heroine?

          You mean there's more than one? (WiddecomBe, by the way).

          Such shortening cannot Strictly Come soon enough (and I'm not referring here to physical height); the deflation of the dirham (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirham) is eagerly awaited...

            Well, presumably you haven't done any, then (wise as you evidently are!)...

              That's quite a shrinkage.

                  Isn't that solution a tad radical?

                    I could not have put it better myself. My elderly 92 year old mother also shares the same view. I always said she had taste!

                      Actually, I've just got a great idea, based on Pavarotti, Domingo and Carreras; why not get her to team up with Kleine Nachtmusik and La Clemenza and form an act called The Three Presenters? I cannot imagine for the life of me why I haven't thought of this before!

                        apparently she has just returned to work.



                        sorry wrong Katie.

                        work?

                        I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

                        I am not a number, I am a free man.

                          There has been a complaint against this thread. It half breaks the rule about not using individual presenters' names in thread titles, but it's also felt that a halt should be called to a discussion which somewhat relentlessly targets one individual.

                          Perhaps that could be reflected on - preferably silently?
                          It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

                            The complaint was from me! I LIKE Katy Derham despite her 'faults' and, imho, endearing idiosyncrasies. Why don't the complainers apply to the BBC, do an audition and see how far YOU get?

                            Oh, and I'll be voting for her on Strictly...

                            So there!

                              My humblest apologies ff - by all means close it down if you and the complainer(s) wish ..... In my view the thread mildly takes the proverbial out of KD and myself which has to be good surely? If it is closed down, IMVVHO, then her progress, or lack of, will pollute other serious threads ...
