Strictly just dancing

So Andy Murray, after his Herculean efforts to get to the end-of-season cash bonanza that this the ATP World Tour finals has crashed out after straight sets defeats to his first two opponents, Roger Federer permitting him one game after it was clear Murray was already eliminated (he had to beat Feerer in stright sets).  I said to my colleague that going to every ATP event going would leave him with burnout and so it proved.  But being in the top eight of the world to make this tournament still carries with it a hefty cheque, even if your rivals make you look risible, so not to many tears should be shed.
So that just leaves Mama Murray, hoofing (in all senses of the verb) away on Strictly Come Dancing, kept in by the virulent wishes of Scottish Nationalists gratified by Andy's last-minute tweet in favour of 'independence' (from his Surrey address).  It's not all bad news; the further Judy Murray goes in the competition without markedly improving, the more the judge will weary of her and the sharper the comments.  Though expected of Craig Revel-Horwood, it's always delightful when generous judges like Bruno Tonioli reach for their '4' panel, after withering wisecracks.  I just hope she doesn't jump ship like John Sergeant, who can forever claim 'I could have won it but I resigned for the show's integrity'. Bollocks, he would have been voted off eventually and wanted his moment in the sun.
