Gone to Ground........


I’m not going to do a day by day report this week, as it has been a funny old week, to be honest!
Saturday’s Strictly was a tough one for some of Gethin's Girl’s, with the Viennese Waltz and Paso Doble bringing back both sweet and bitter memories of SCD5. Geth’s Paso was featured on Len’s Masterclass piece on It Takes Two, which can’t be bad.

I received my SCD annual – and am seething that Geth and Cam’s record-holding and fabulous American Smooth was not recorded as the highest-scoring (they still say Colin and Erin’s), someone at the BBC needs to get their facts straight!


We heard tell of a new Quiz Show to be hosted by GJ, but have now discovered that it is on S4C - in Welsh. After some initial disappointment we decided we’d watch Gethin saying anything in any language if we can……


What it does point out is that the Beeb (and Geth’s new agents) have to find this man something good in prime time, or the wrath of thousands of women will be felt, never mind controversy over Ross and Brand! Perhaps the ill-wind could blow some good in Gethin’s direction – nice guys may not finish last after all!


The Danger Hunters episode this week was Deadly Surf, and it was the best so far! His fear was palpable, his humour infectious, and I especially loved his banter with extreme surfers, ‘They’re nuts, but they’re not nuts’……..oh yes, they are definitely nuts!


Loving Geth in a wetsuit of course, and how the heck he managed to look good at some unearthly hour on a windswept Irish headland, I don’t know!


We know Geth was at the National Television Awards ceremony on Wednesday night, but there was no sign of him in camera shot, and Katherine Jenkins was at the Bond Premiere, so we did not get a sighting of the pair of them on a red carpet together, or Geth in a tux, which the GGs would have been grateful for!


So, we've had another Telegraph article from Geth, a quiz show is recording this weekend….what else is Gethin up to…….fingers crossed there is something in the pipeline – we are missing him!

'Oh, my actual days' - says Gethin Jones


Saturday
Party time - in Northampton
Geth's Girls had a get together to watch Strictly - bring back the viewer panels, we say!
Walesonline continue to publish articles about the match last week, but a great quote is to be had from one of them:
'....the media team had a lot of guts....but only Gethin had a six pack' 'nuff said really!

Sunday
Gethin's Girl
Katherine Jenkins sings on Strictly.....unfortunately we couldn't spot Geth in the audience!

Monday
Croeso i Gymru
It appears Geth is co-hosting Children in Need in Wales with John Barrrowman on November 14th - shame we have to put up with Terry and Fearne instead. I think we know which will be more fun!

Tuesday
A book is a friend for life
Gethin will be in a library in Colwyn Bay on 30th October

Wednesday
Danger man
On TV he is looking for lightning (and not finding much) in Danger Hunters on Virgin 1 - which was amusing and interesting, and we liked the shorts and flip flops, Jonesy! Getting a speeding ticket (tut tut, speeding is bad, says she whose middle names are Stirling Moss) was maybe not so good!!!

Apart from the quote in the title, we had the unconvincing, 'I'm gonna have a paddy, don't talk to me!'.

Thursday
Guess who's coming to dinner
Geth hosts an event for Cardiff Blues and gets a mention in an article about bags - hopefully a sports bag, not a little beaded evening number *eek*

Friday
TGIF
This week's Telegraph article is very amusing. Tom, allegedly, is wearing Geth's tango jacket, and Geth muses on whether his biceps will fill it as well as his own - well we know that is unlikely, now don't we, Gethin!

You can't fool us with this little game of feeling like a Strictly cast-off......well, maybe we do feel a bit bereft of Gethin and for him, but since most of our week we have been attempting to book every seat in every stadium for the SCD Live tour, the joke is evidently on us!!!
