Despite the BBC shamelessly promoting Munchetty on news programmes for many days now, she put on a very poor performance last night.
No other contestant received anything like that level of publicity that the BBC employee Munchetty had heaped upon her prior to the competition commencing.

Who's Munchetty?

See BBC profile here Personally I think it unfair, and certainly ungallant to just refer to her by surname rather than her fall name. I am also not convinced she has been subject to an unfair amount of publicity as I have seen many other contestants being interviewed on various programmes which the OP may have missed.

..I have to disagree,----------- Many celebrities on TV, in showbusiness, and in public life are referred to by their Surnames -- Sinatra, Wogan, Parkinson for example and many many more.
It is definitely NOT ungallant to do so.

interesting subject...the three named are all men, so no need to be gallant to them really is there? I think, in general, women who are known by one name are generally known by their first names rather than surnames..Adele, Kylie etc...so I do think it sounds a biit off to use just a surname in this case personally, what do others think ?
As to the first programme, in my opinion an incredibly high standard BUT it remains to be seen how many can maintain it when faced with a different style of dance. Surprises for me...Judge Rinder - wow ! Danny from Hollyoaks - Phew! can't wait to see what they both make of a ballroom dance though, and Louise Rednapp - beautifully in sync with her partner all the way through.
