This is a download from LBC, Steve Allen's Little Bit Extra.

Morning everybody, welcome along to your free podcast. I better tell you now it's cold. Very, very cold. All this week, it's going to be so cold. I mean, whether it snows, I've got no idea, but I am prepared for the snow. But it's freezing cold out there this morning. So if you're one of those

people who literally picks up on the free podcast the moment it is submitted, well done. If not,

you might have had some sunshine by now because that's what they're saying. Over in dancing on ice,

poor Cheryl Baker is eliminated. She had a tense skate offoff with Donna Airhead, as Le Maher

finally avoids the dreaded bottom two. It's always very interesting, isn't it, seeing people on there, because Donner Airhead, nobody knows.

And Le Maher, I didn't even know he was still around, but there again, everything surprises me.

Also in the same show was Jake Quickenden. And we all know about Jake Quickenden,

don't we? And Vanessa Bauer, they did a one-handed lift. But I'm telling you now,

everybody who's ever been to see this thing, it is so slow. It's filmed almost slowly. So,

you know, and then they speed it up a little bit just for your benefit. Alex Beresford took a tumble on live television. He's only the weather bloke, okay? Let's not make a big deal about it. He reads, it's going to be wet. This is going to be dry. This is going to be snow and this bit's going to be sunny. And that's the extent of it. Nobody's interested in the minutiae of weather forecasting.

Just stand there and tell us what it is, dear, and that's it.

But to actually have the audacity to put yourself in dancing a nice celebrity version is almost a joke in itself.

Anthony Cotton is very brave because he's fractured his ribs.

Viewers have blasted Jason Gardner's harsh comments.

I love that. I love that. I think it's so funny. So we're blasting Jason Gardner. We shan't watch it ever again. Somebody wrote in.

They've actually started a little petition online to make sure that Brendan Cole is reinstated.

And apparently some of Brendan's do-lally fans have gone, we shall never watch it ever again.

Of course, Brendan, I have to tell you, they're lying through their teeth. They'll be watching it every week.

But he also might have a new job. I think in America, they were thinking that Len and him could go over there.

More on that a little bit later. I'm not holding him a breath on it because he's not a pleasant person.

But I love the way the fans go. We shall never watch it ever again.
