Posted August 10, 20159 yr Yep, it's back for it's new run this autumn. Here's this year's pro dancers (the ones highlighted in bold are new, and are replacing the departing Iveta Lukisiute and Trent Whiddon): Aljaž Škorjanec Anton Du Beke Brendan Cole Giovanni Pernice Gleb Savchenko Kevin Clifton Pasha Kovalev Tristan MacManus Aliona Vilani Janette Manrara Joanne Clifton Karen Hauer Kristina Rihanoff Natalie Lowe Ola Jordan Otlile Mabuse Host of BBC2's 'Eggheads' and Radio 2 DJ, Jeremy Vine, was the first celebrity dancer revealed this morning on Chris Evans' Radio 2 breakfast show: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/strictlycomedan...a1-909b93c89787 With Olly and Caroline back hosting X Factor I'm not sure I'll be watching quite so much this year as in the last two years. Will still watch anyway as it's good Saturday night entertainment. Any predictions as to who we think will be joining Jeremy? Edited August 13, 20159 yr by ThePensmith
August 10, 20159 yr Surprised Ola is back after last year! Not really that familiar with Jeremy Vine, though I know who he is. I've seen a few likely rumours; Jamie & Louise Redknapp, Adrian Chiles, Shane Richie, Peter Andre, Carol Kirkwood, Jamelia - I've seen those thrown about and they seem like the sort of names you would expect.
August 10, 20159 yr I hope the Natalie Anderson rumour is true now she's left Emmerdale <3 And Jamie Redknapp please *.* for obvious rumours.
August 10, 20159 yr They're going to have to pull out all the stops to try and beat last years line up :o
August 10, 20159 yr Author Oooh I saw about Jamie and Louise Redknapp too, they'd be perfect. Peter Andre seems pretty believable, especially as I think he has a new album on the way in the autumn so it'd be perfect promo for him.
August 10, 20159 yr They're going to have to pull out all the stops to try and beat last years line up :o Disagree with you highly there, they could hire failed X Factor auditionees and replace Len Goodman and Craig Revel Horwood with a teddy-bear and cat and it would be better than last year's series! And make 'Dreary' Bussell the host of the show!
August 10, 20159 yr I agree on last year's line up being tough to beat but Jeremy Vine is a reasonably big name. Louise Redknapp strikes me as the token 'I ain't even a trained dancer or nuffin' contestant so her to be in please.
August 10, 20159 yr "I've never even danced on Just Dance before omg xxx" *gets 34 in the first week*
August 10, 20159 yr That and Aliona's face of abject hatred when she sees the duffer she's been paired with are always the series highlights.
August 11, 20159 yr Ainsley Harriott. Yay! Possible contender on the first person to be voted out in the dance-off.
August 11, 20159 yr Rather than first eliminated, I'd bet that Ainsley could be the one who stays about 5 weeks too long thanks to the comedy vote :lol:
August 11, 20159 yr Author I wouldn't totally rule out Ainsley. If memory serves me correctly he sang 'Shake Your Tail Feather' on Children in Need many years ago and he had some MOVES. Some drunk on too much Sangria moves, admittedly, but MOVES.
August 12, 20159 yr First female to be confirmed is Kellie Bright from Eastenders Ainsley will be fabulous
