John Sergeant's run on Strictly Come Dancing has been met with envy from Business Secretary Lord Mandelson.
Lord Mandelson told BBC Breakfast that he "would love to be asked" to fill John's shoes on the show, adding: "I was cheering for John Sergeant on Saturday and I have to say watching with a degree of envy."
Asked if he would like to take part himself he replied: "It would be nice to be asked".
He would only smile and chuckle as surprised presenters asked if he would rule out appearing on the show.
John made it through to the next round of the show at the weekend on a wave of support from the public vote despite coming bottom of the score table.
The show's judges have been less than complimentary about his performances but a string of fan groups have sprung up across Facebook in tribute to the political journalist's efforts, one dubbed: "We only vote for John Sergeant to annoy Craig (Revel Horwood, one of the judges)."

just heard this on the "news". I remember this programme from years ago as something for pensioners........just goes to show the BBC can hype up any old junk to engage the masses. A few months ago, I was the only person in my family who knew who John Sergeant was....What makes me madder is the BBC "have your say" complaints section requires a membership login before any comments are allowed.......probably linked to the tv licensing department.....:mad:

SIR David Attenborough said 'fuck this' last night after Strictly Come Dancing became the most popular television programme in the world.
The veteran documentary maker slumped in his chair with his head in his hands, sobbing quietly before walking to the lavatory and throwing up for half an hour.
Sir David added: "We spent four years developing a camera we could put inside a hummingbird's egg so you could actually witness the development of those amazing wings.
"We then waited for the bird to hatch and grow and then filmed it at such close range you could see the expression on its face.
"But no, you're right. How tedious. If only we'd trained the little fucker to dance."
The BBC has now sold the 'Strictly' format to 34 countries, occasionally throwing-in a free VHS video of Life on Earth.
A spokesman said: "The groundbreaking thing about Strictly Come Dancing is that we take people you would not normally associate with dancing and then we film them dancing.
"Often we do have to remind the viewer who the celebrity is so they realise the celebrity would not normally be dancing. But then we can say 'wow, look at that bloke off the news - he's dancing!'"
Sir David said: "Fuck, and I might add, this."

Vote with your feet - don't get a licence. There isn't much - if anything to give up really, only loads to gain. The trouble is, the good lady may have other ideas?

It's a distraction. Just like tonights TV schedule. We were treated to "Britian Inside Out" which focussed on wrong-doing of small-time crooks. This was obviously to divert attention from the big-time crooks in the city of london and elsewhere.

Jackman named 'sexiest man alive'
NEWS.com.au
November 20, 2008 05:15am
AUSTRALIA'S Hugh Jackman
has been named the
Sexiest Man Alive
by People magazine.
"You can't go wrong with Jackman," People correspondent Michelle Beadle told CBS after revealing the selection.
"He's Australian, first of all. He's adorable. He's got one of the best bodies ever.
"And he's a family man. We all love that.
"He's not on the party scene. He loves his kids, he loves his wife. He likes to stay home and make pancakes. He's almost too perfect!"
Jackman and his wife of 12-plus years
Deborra-Lee Furness,
are "a very romantic couple", Beadle said.
They have two children - Oscar, 8 and Ava, 6.
When asked what his wife's response was to him being named sexiest man alive, Jackman told the magazine: "God bless her, she said, 'I could've told them that years ago!' And then she said, 'Obviously, Brad (Pitt) wasn't available this year'. And I said, 'That was a joke, right?'", DPA reported.
DPA said the magazine described Jackman as
"a hard body with a soft centre".

This is one of those pivatal moments, in 20 years time people will say do you remember what you were doing when you found out John Sargeant quite strictly?
I completely ignored 9-11 at the time - turned the TV off and dismissed it. ill not make the same mistake this time round!
