News Flash: Dancing On Ice to end in 2014


Jason Wood Interview

Strictly 1
Jason Wood kindly agreed to answer any questions for the users of this website so the section Ask the Stars was born. Members of the forum posted their questions and I picked the best of the bunch. So, without further ado here is the exclusive interview for Strictly Come Dancing Online...


Cherrybear: My question is, are the judges really as mean in real-life as they are when judging the show?

Hate to disappoint anyone but actually they're all really nice. Actually at a party for Paul Killick I spent most of the night chatting and laughing with Craig who gave me two!

Shopoholic: Have you done any dancing since appearing on "Strictly Come Dancing" and if not would you consider dancing again? 
Apart from a drunken episode at Christmas not really although I loved it so much more than I thought I would! I was at a wedding recently and they all expected me to take to the floor not understanding that without Kylie pushing me around I'm really crap at it.

Jondi: What did you wished to be as kid, when you grew up? 
A comedy actor. When I was 8 I played Oliver in a theatre run of Oliver and in the program I wrote, when I grow up I want to be an actor like JulieWalters! 

Jondi: Where would you like to see yourself in the future?
A comedy actor and my own show a bit like Saturday Night Live in the USA.

Jondi: How long did it take you to break through as comedian and did you ever think of giving up?
No there were times I wished I didn't want it so much so I could give up. So far it's taken me 14 years via years of working in hell holes/working men's clubs/dangerous pubs and many years of "no thank you".  

Jondi: If you would not had become a comedian, what would have been the alternative? 
I don't know I think once you work in this profession and this is what you want to do there is nothing else.

Jondi: Do you watch SCD, if you have the time? If so, who were, or always had been your favourites?
Sometimes I tend to work most weekends performing but I always catch the final! I loved every one on SCD 1 especially Lesley and Christopher and of course Kylie and all the dancers I supported Julian in SCD 2 but then I would!

Jondi: If you would dance again, who would be your partner of choice? 
I'd only choose Kylie again we really became close during the show she truly is beautiful inside and out!

Jondi: Which song would you like to dance to? 
"I've had the time of my life" loved the final with it for Natasha.

Katie: Are you enjoying appearing on 29 Minutes of Fame? 
Yes its cool although I was only booked for two as I have a sitcom thing I'm doing.


I'd like to thank Jason for giving up his time to answer these questions.
