I love my husband but I argue with him too - usually because the one of us wants the other of us to better ourselves! In answer to you wondering if you're doing it right? I think we're all doing it right, love it, hate it, loathe it, we're feeling - and that's the important thing!

I don't think it's a negative feeling because there's just as many good reviews following each episode, and people are watching, but I think there's a trend towards general hype being built up around a TV show, and then the interest dies down. There was such hype over here prior the new season of Who, but it's faded now, and Strictly hype's now the rage. It's like Oooh, this is flavour of the month, so it can have the new spot. I suspect it'll reflect in the ratings of Who and how long it'll last. And that worries me as I have yet to see them film in Cardiff, and that's very much on my to do list!
