“I’ll leave the decision up to Danny. I’ve been married twice, he hasn’t at all, so whatever he feels comfortable with.

A ‘gaggle of gays’ to appear at the wedding?

Shirley has been married twice and engaged three times before, so this wouldn’t be a new experience for her.

However, speaking about what she’d like to see during a possible ceremony, she said she wants a “gaggle of gays” to make an appearance.

She also wants the trio of Strictly pro dancers to appear, saying that “could be fun”.

Although it went down a storm with most viewers, some complained.

One viewer defended the routine, writing on Twitter: “Absolutely loved it. I presume all those complaining about it ‘being a family show’ have never considered taking their children to the pantomime?”
