Octagon Patron appearing in Strictly Come Dancing

Like millions of other people I tuned into Stricly Come Dancing on Saturday night. I love the glitz and the glamour and of course the dancing both good and not so good. However, iIt seems I am not really up to speed this year as it had completely passed me by that one of our lovely patrons is appearing. The wonderful Lynda Bellingham. You can read more about her involvement here.

I think we should start a The Octagon votes Lynda campaign. Who is with me?
