Iveta: Triple P has always enjoyed a leggy Lithuanian
So what were the producers thinking in inviting 74 year old Johnny Ball onto Strictly Come Dancing this year? He plodded through his routine with substitute dancer perky Lithuanian Iveta Lukosiute (who patiently tried her best) and was the first person thrown off.
The disaster of course is that the sulkily attractive Aliona Vilani now won't have the chance to some back after her ankle injury heals. Hopefully she'll get some show dances later in the series.
Ball's foxtrot was at least an attempt at proper dancing which is more than can be said for Jerry Hall's effort. Unfortunately, we will miss this week's show as we will be somewhere over the Atlantic but hope Victoria Pendleton's renaissance continues and hope they get Ola into a catsuit before her time runs out too.
