Paso trousers

Dear Paso Trousers

I think if you want to have any self respect left after Saturday, it would be best if you tried to sneak into Vincent's wardrobe.

Otherwise by 9pm, all the other articles of clothing will be laughing at you after Anton wears you.

Maybe if you are willing to be shortened by a foot, Vincent could wear you for the Argentinian Tango.
The focus of this dance is very much on the legs rather than the feet, and you may find a more appreciative audience there.

Failing that, you would make a very nice pair of Capri pants for Jade.

kindest regards

Deidre

Dear Deirdre

I was tempted by the option to become Jade's Capri pants since I would still get to dance with Ian. However, I've opted for Vincent, and hope that the lopped of material can be used to make at least a couple of cat suits for Ola.

The only problem is that this leaves Anton without any trousers, but he still has his paso shirt.

Regards

Unfortunately the judges continually fail to see how fabulous I am and I have to rely on the public to keep me in.

My problem lies in the fact that I seem to have used up all my bargaining tools - I've got to my home town of Blackpool, my birthday's gone, I foolishly got married before the series started and I don't have a cute nan or child to parade around. I've even drawn a blank when looking for someone with a sick kitten that I could exploit.

How to do I make people vote for me now?

Yours confusedly

Craig

Dear Craig

A torn ligament took Kate Garroway through a few weeks and so that seems the best option. Alternatively you could withdraw saying that you've been booked as a speaker on a cruise.

Dear V's AT trews,

You truly are green trousers- using left over pieces to make an entire season's wardrobe for Ola.

The idea of Anton without trousers is even more horrifying than his shirt without buttons.

Maybe he could wrap the paso Cape round his legs like a kilt?

Yours

Dear Deidre

Please help me. I am trapped in a job for which I am not qualified and I don't know what to do.

I am a cleaning lady, a very good one if I say so myself. There's no-one to touch me with a sponge scrubber and some Fairy. I used to clean some offices but fancied a change and when I saw an ad for cleaners for the BBC, I thought, 'That's the job for me'. So I put on my best black suit and went off to Shepherd's Bush. I was left waiting for a while, but there was some nice music playing so I whiled away the time by humming along to some Meat Loaf. Then a man came out of an office and told me I had got the job, and asked me to come back on Saturday at 6 o'clock. I thought it was a bit odd when they told me to wear my suit but I thought they would give me a pinny on the night.

When I arrived on the Saturday they didn't give me a pinny or a bucket or anything, they told me to sit with a load of musicians and sing. I can't sing. They said it didn't matter, neither could any of the others. I tried to leave but they told me they have got a contract on me until Christmas!

What can I do, dearest Deirdre? All I want is a frilly pinny and my Marigolds. I feel so alone.

Yours,

A Dave Arch Cleaner

Dear Deirdre,

I am thinking of suing my employer for discrimination. My full name is Len's 3 Paddle, and my services have not been utilised since my contract of employment began many years ago.

My little paddle heart perked up when I saw Craig dancing this year, but alas the 6 got its showing again! I can clearly show discrimination as fellow paddle Craig Revel-Horwood's 3 has been used in this same time period and he offers the same skills and capabilities as me.

Being the number 3, I admit I am more rounded than my fellow paddles 7 and 4, who I suspect benefit from their skinny, pointy angles, so I am thinking of also suing for size discrimination, which I hope will be inshrined in law soon.

I have gathered so much dust from underuse that I have gone grey and may be able to also argue ageism.

What are my chances of success?

Yours numerically,
