Did anyone watch the Gary Barlow show earlier with various guests. Michael Buble, Alfie beau etc?

If anyone did, what did you think of the dancers?!!

Florence, which channel? I didn't watch but I'll take a look on catch-up if I can.

I watched the show. Liked the singing but wasn't impressed with the so called "comedy" bits in between. Thought the dancers were very good but I really don't know why they have to be dressed in so little!!

It was on ITV at 9pm. "Gary Barlow's Night at the Museum".

Joy louise it was on ITV

Kath, I agree the singing was good but that was all. I wouldnt normally comment on a thing like show dancers but really the costumes were very scanty and also they were not graceful dancers. Some had legs that "wobbled" and they stomped around in ankle boots.
Personally, think they didnt bring anything to the show and didnt need them.
Years ago, the dancers would have been "show girls" with gorgeous dresses etc and also "model like" figures.
These "dancers" would have looked more in place in a "private club".

Don't get me wrong I am not a prude in anyway, i just thought they were quite vulgar really.

Oh well that's just my opinion!

Edit, was worth watching just to see Alfie Beau :-D

I agree wholeheartedly Florence. My son and I both commented about the dancers at the time. They looked a bit tacky for a Christmas show.
