Never in a million years.

There wasn't that many complaints when the film "Joker" used a Gary Glitter song in 2019.

I'm a beliver in that you can hate the artist but still like the art.

Glitter was a sick paedo, but he did produce some great music.

We're gonna soon find out that there were lots of great artists that were vile individuals when the Epstein and Diddy names are released.

So I'm doing the show tomorrow. And guys...I'm sorry to say..im a bit disappointed. Where's all the massive Christmas hits, we have zero wham or Mariah(not a problem as she's our guest performer) as for guilty pleasures, where are s club 7, Steps, and the like.

So... We know now who your guilty pleasures are, Jake.

Don't worry... I'm old enough to remember when ABBA was considered a guilty pleasure, before everyone loved them

[The Human Santapede]

I found guilty pleasure hard because what my guilty pleasures are probably not everyone else’s are

That's what happens as soon as the star performer is voted out.

If this was on the telly. The viewers would have turned off when Sir Alfred was voted out.

Yes, let's start a new game.

I came up with an idea a few years ago for these type of games where nobody gets voted out. Instead you just calculate the scores from each round.

That way every player gets to play the entire game.

Don't know why that rule disappeared

Happy 1st December

I felt they would be a bit safe, wheeled so many times before you should be delighted we have gone all out outside the box

as for guilty pleasures its very subjective, as Livia said ABBA would have been in the past but now they are not so... each to their own as they say

[The Human Santapede]

A lot of my guilty pleasures songs would give me away in the game.

Are results tonight or tomorrow?

I NEVER feel any guilt over listening to Steps… just saying

[Time to Sleigh]

Rankings for 80s

1 Michelle and Gorka- Frankie
I hadn't listened to this song for such a long time so I'm so happy it was used in the game. It really suited the dance.

2 Leona and Carlos- Let's dance
On paper I'm unsure how much this suits a paso doble but listening to it, it actually did, I rated this high for how much that surprised me

3 Emma and Nikita- How am I supposed to live without you
This is such a beautiful choice. Really suited the Waltz

4 Dwayne and Nadiya- All night long
Can totally see Dwayne doing a great Samba to this. I don't understand why the rankings were so low for it

5 Alan and Dianne- Who's that girl
Never heard this song before, but it suited the Argentine tango well

6 Mutya and Johannes- Could have been
I always thought Tiffany was a one hit wonder so haven't heard this before and probably for a reason I found this dull

7 Kylie and Vito- Duck tales
Seriously? Out of all of the 80s songs? Not sure what the thought process was behind this


90s

1 Michelle and Gorka- Ooh aah just a little bit
Again Michelle smashed it. This is such an iconic 90s song. I loved it

2 Leona and Carlos- Gonna make you sweat
Wow! This was amazing!

3 Dwayne and Nadiya- Mambo Number 5
Again a brilliant choice. I still don't think Dwayne should have left in these rounds

4 Emma and Nikita- Waiting for tonight
Really suited the dance, but maybe a bit of an easy choice. Still loved it though

5 Kylie and Vito- Kiss the Rain
Kylie did better in this round but I preferred the songs above

6 Alan and Dianne- Sleeping Satellite
I quite liked this but I don't know how much it suited the dance overall

7 Mutya and Johannes- Only happy when it rains
Wasn't overly keen on this, sorry Mutya!
