The Telegraph newspaper added a unique bingo theme to the weekend episode of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’. While no prizes were on offer, the game brought together the UK’s favourite pastime along with watching the finals of one of the favourite TV programs at the weekend. With bingo popping up all over the place it shows how the game is becoming increasingly popular in the lives of people in the UK. The concept of the Strictly Come Dancing Bingo game reported in the UK newspaper is for viewers to look out for the following 15 events. 1. Head judge Len Gooman marks someone, probably Jason Donovan, a seven. Just so he can use his trademark cry of “sevuhhhhhhhn!” 2. Sir Bruce Forsyth refers to one of his own lame gags as “a stupid joke” in a bid to wring out an extra sympathetic laugh 3. Increasingly loud cheers greet each successive “10” of a perfect 40 score 4. Tess Daly talks about the tacky glitterball trophy in tones of hushed awe, as if it’s the Holy Grail 5. Claudia Winkelman peeps out from behind her fringe and refers to Russell Grant as “The Grant”, accompanied by an “Oh. My. God” 6. Craig Revel Horwood declares a flop routine "a disaahster, dahling” 7. Craig Revel Horwood praises an outstanding routine with a word split into its three syllables, eg “Fan-tas-tic” or “Stu-pen-dous” 8. Chelsee Healey barely responds during a post-dance interview due to breathlessness 9. Three judges give tens but Craig Revel Horwood gives a nine and gets roundly booed 10. Training video segues into a lame skit involving bad acting and a villainous Brendan Cole 11. Len Goodman dismisses use of props as “messing abaht” 12. Endless plugs for this being “the first ever Strictly final broadcast in 3D” and people watching it in cinemas. Who are these people? 13. Jason Donovan adds “characterisation and storytelling” to his dance, i.e. pulls a succession of stupid faces 14. Harry Judd dances in a see-through or unbuttoned shirt and Alesha Dixon praises his “hip action” or “bottom placement” 15. Bruno Tonioli rises excitedly out of his chair as he purringly praises a performance, probably by Harry.
