Strictly Come Drinking

Frankly, I care too much about Strictly to have more than a glass of wine or two while watching te show, but if you feel the need to entertain yourself further (or need something to keep your other half entertained while you're trying to watch), DigitalSpy have the answer. The Strictly Come Dancing Drinking Game.

Looking at the rules, you'd get very drunk very quickly!

Rule One - Have one shot for every budget BBC celeb you see in the audience that has managed to blag themselves free tickets.

Rule Two - Drink two fingers of beer each time Len Goodman cries "Seeeeverrrn!"

Rule Three - Drink another two fingers whenever Len snaps at Craig/Bruno/Arlene and does his best stern headmaster look.

Rule Four - If Arlene uses alliteration ("That was Strictly, sausages, sternly, sensationally, sideways, slippery, snowman, superb...etc") knock back a G&T.

Rule Five - Have a second G&T if Bruno uses a nonsensical metaphor ("Your Paso was like a tasty lasagna!")

Rule Six - Each time Craig Revel Horwood gets booed by the studio audience chug some beer.

Rule Seven - Help yourself to a double & mixer of your choice if Brucie stumbles over his words or gets someone's name wrong etc.

Rule Eight - Down a pint if any contestant says "no one is safe this week" during their intro tape.

Rule Nine - Quaff some spirits if Tess Daly makes a sexually suggestive comment about Austin's pecs/guns/chest.

Rule Ten - Sup some cider each time a celeb claims that they "don't want their Strictly journey to end" followed by a clip of them looking teary in rehearsals.

Rule Eleven - Have a shot if Brendan Cole throws a strop or Vincent Simone makes a comment about sex or his good looks.

Rule Twelve - Finish off whatever's left over when Arlene suggests that she has been aroused by Austin Healey or Tom Chambers's performance.

But remember: DRINK RESPONSIBLY
