Love Ricky's chest but I'm rooting for Phil

Now that's more like it! This batch of Strictly Come Dancing contestants were a lot better than last week. They weren't all great on technique, but they were much more fun to watch.

Anyway, it's not all about being fantastic at this early stage. We prefer someone who's a bit rubbish but who shows willing and improves - it's all about the journey. And we like someone with personality, which is why my favourite so far is Phil Tufnell. I'd pick him over pretty boy Ricky Whittle, despite his six-pack.

It's all about the mouth action for me - I'm transfixed by Phil's sticking out tongue and Ricky Groves's open mouth.

Which brings me to a problem with this series. There are too many people in it with similar names. Two Rickys, two Natalies - Cassidy and new dancer Lowe - two Craigs in Kelly and Revel-Horwood, and hopeless dancers Jo and Joe.

Plus the fact Laila Rouass looks strikingly like Flavia Cacace, and it's all a bit confusing.

I'm loving the judges this series, who seem to be really enjoying themselves. Alesha stepped up her game this week and Len is just wonderful.

Alesha's dirty laugh seems to be encouraging them in a mucky direction, though, what with Bruno and his "I felt something growing, big and powerful" and Craig with his "flagellant arms".

Flagellant does exist as a word, though I had to look it up. And I'm not quite sure it can be used in the context Craig did, as, according to the dictionary, it means "one who seeks sexual gratification in beating or being beaten by another person". Oo-er!
