not too bad here...
 

New UK tv series just started but Keith Duffy of boy group Westlife only one worth watching so far. Here in his special Irish shamrock speedos:

Congrats. to GL for still being on such good form but what is so "skimpy" about DB? (does it make US audiences nervous?)

Last night actor Dan Osborne (4th from left) won points to proceed into the next round: http://i1.cdnds.net/14/03/618x457/re..._3517165at.jpg

A review
 

May amuse some but the author of this piece is some would-be comedian called Dotty, no-Scotty, Bryan:

(TD never wears that blue team GB Speedo* on the programme of course but let's not have the facts getting in the way of a journalist - especially when describing starting blocks as small diving boards).

*it seems to sell well on Ebay however

haha
 

The link from Byron's post is actually really funny. Loved it. I agree about the lady judge... she is the one with the best wit and wisdom.

Excellent....
 

It seems I am redeemed from ignominy and always happy to oblige with an amusing interlude of course.

(your appreciation passed on to Jo)

for STS
 

Dan Osborne again (would like to have seen his unusual white speedo here on the show): http://www.thecelebarchive.net/publi...uy/1920143.jpg

Byron, nice vid find. Unusual pattern of speedos; and what's with the guy in plaid shorts?

Elucidation
 

LOL - the guys are not competitors but it seems the connection is with DiveDynamix which is a professional diving performance company (and for the girls of Aquabatics 1 also who perform their synchronised swimming sequences).

There was usually a mid-show diving and swimming entertainment display in Splash and I guess that accounts for the costume speedos as seen there in blue and gold (the plaid defies explanation but invented as all part of the act I would assume - as were the sparkly confections seen on the celeb. competitors).
