‘Strictly Come Dancing’: Anton Du Beke Weighs In On Same-Sex Couples Row
Anton Du Beke has become the latest star to wade into the ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ same-sex couples row, giving his verdict on whether competing celebrities should be allowed to be paired with someone of the same gender.

The discussion has been ongoing during the current series, and the likes of Susan Calman, Judge Rinder and Will Young have all had their say on the matter.

Now, veteran pro dancer Anton has shared his thoughts, expressing concern over how same-sex couples would affect the judging.

The Sun reports that he “declined” to answer whether he would dance with a man if the BBC asked him to, telling the paper: “My only problem with it is, if you’re dancing same sex couples against opposing sex couples, it’s difficult to match apples and pears.

The debate hit headlines earlier this year, when  Susan Calman was forced to speak out on her decision to dance with man, rather than a woman.

Susan, who is married to a woman, expressed her frustration at having to defend her choice, stating: “I think what annoyed me slightly is that I seem to be getting it in the neck.”

For 2017, Anton has been partnered with ‘Loose Women’ anchor Ruth Langsford and for Halloween week the pair will be dancing a ‘Bewitched’-themed routine.

‘Coronation Street’ Spoilers: Pat Phelan Actor Connor McIntyre Reveals What’s Next After Double Murder

‘Coronation Street’ Spoilers: Pat Phelan Actor Connor McIntyre Reveals What’s Next After Double Murder

Just when we thought Pat Phelan couldn’t possibly get any worse in ‘Coronation Street’, Friday’s (27 October) episode saw him orchestrate a double murder.

After forcing Andy Carver to shoot Vinny Ashford, Pat went back on his promise to free Andy and turned the gun on him too, before dumping both of their bodies into a lake.

Following the explosive scenes, Connor McIntyre – who plays Phelan – has revealed at what’s to come, hinting that his character will face justice.

When asked if the soap gods will get Phelan back, Connor said: “It must be so and we have just woken them up out of their slumber – ‘Hey, this needs sorting out.’

“But while we run up to that, whenever that is, Pat Phelan is now a very dangerous person. Now he’s crossed the rubicon whereas before he would go to great lengths, for example the cellar, complicating things.

“The journey towards his comeuppance will be very lively I’m sure, because now he has a direct root to solving problems.”

The coming weeks will see a handful of characters, including Anna Windass, become more and more suspicious of Phelan, but viewers will have to wait and see whether he gets found out.

The plot is one of a number of storylines that will keep viewers enthralled in the run-up to Christmas and there’s even been suggestions that Phelan could kill again.
