He probably just saw Len's tie and decided that he was going to be offended by anything he said.
A bit like what Christopher Walken's character in 'Catch Me If You Can' says: "Nobody can keep their eyes off the pinstripes"

Never trust anyone who wears novelty ties or socks someone once said to me……..

People shouldn't be allowed opinions in my opinion, which I shouldn't be allowed, by the way, in my opinion

A shit tie was one that loads of cloned blokes used to wear in the 80s, the thin piano keyboard one

I bought it for Brexit voting day and wore it to work that day but haven't worn a normal tie in years, probably nearly 5 years at my brothers wedding, will be wearing a black tie on Thursday night though. Did you used to have one of those piano ties then ?

Did you used to have one of those piano ties then ? Why am I not surprised by your Brexit voting day antics? Nothing says 'I'm edgy and provocative' better than a comedy tie. No - no piano tie for me - in fact rarely any tie - it got in the way of showing off my medallion😉. Enjoy your black tie do - what is it - a 'Bernard Manning tribute night'?

I think Northwich is using what's known as humour. Personally I only wear ties at funerals or interviews so it is a bit garish for my taste. You don't really do humour do you fella?

‘Love Thigh Neighbour’ reminds me of my younger years, good times. Must've been a 'bluey'? 😁 Love 'Thigh' Neighbour 🤣 I shall tell the brief (but exciting to a teenager) story. Our back garden backed onto another back garden. Part of the blind in our bathroom window was broken so I could see through the small open part of it whenever I showered, and through to the patio doors on said neighbour’s house. A blonde, I’d say in her 30s, used to have her foot up on a chair rubbing lotion on her thighs weirdly on a few occasions at the time I was showering. I was sure she looked up and smiled one day, but my mind may have got carried away with itself.

78 or not, it's a fucking stupid thing to say. Is he xenophobic? Probably not, but it's just a fucking dumb thing to blart out on TV.

The main thing to take away from this is that Len Goodman is only 78, he’s 2 years older than my old man and looks like he could be his dad…..

Old fashioned curry powder from the 60s was very yellow and a bit naff. A much brighter shade of yellow than you would see on a coronation chicken sandwich. sakkarin.co.uk/foodforum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4016Things have moved on considerably in terms of what's on offer nowadays but it was a bit shit back in the day.
