August 21, 20177 yr An announcement is also gonna be made on The One Show tonight, which makes think it'll be Angela Scanlon they announce! My money is on Gyles Brandreth :lol:
August 21, 20177 yr Author Also just additionally: Ore Oduba is standing in for Steve Wright on Radio 2 all week, and had Joanne Clifton on as one of his guests today, where he confirmed they will be returning to the launch show for one last dance - and have heavily hinted it'll be one they did in the final last year! If they do their Jive to Bruno Mars again I will cartwheel with excitement :D
August 21, 20177 yr Author Debbie McGee and Johnnie Peacock also confirmed and...yeah. How funny would it be if Aston and Alexandra wound up in the final? X Factor 2008 all over again!
August 21, 20177 yr Debbie McGee and Johnnie Peacock also confirmed and...yeah. How funny would it be if Aston and Alexandra wound up in the final? X Factor 2008 all over again! The paralympian? If so then i'm SO IN.
August 21, 20177 yr It's not the strongest line-up of names but super excited for Alexandra as I was for Ruth's announcement :wub:
August 23, 20177 yr I feel that this series is certainly ticking the diversity boxes - it's also the first year where I at least vaguely know all of the contestants. Looking forward to it hugely! Haven't decided who I'm rooting for yet.
August 23, 20177 yr The "performers" (singers / actors, so I'm thinking Alexandra, Mollie, Aston, Davood, Gemma, Chizzy, Joe, Brian) usually have an advantage when it comes to dancing - some of them will have had previous experience of choreography, playing characters etc. It'll be interesting to see whether this plays out in the series or not!

September 2, 20177 yr Author First official trailer for the new series: -Jk9hy-awGQ Also...I'm gonna be live blogging this series from next weekend. All the info you need is here: http://alexscsb.com/2017/09/02/strictly-li...-9th-september/
September 6, 20177 yr The pairings are out there, if you can't/don't want to watch the launch show this weekend. Joseph's bed confirmed jealous of the Mollie/AJ pairing
September 7, 20177 yr The full pairings: Mollie & AJ Susan & Kevin Alexandra & Gorka Charlotte & Brendan Ruth & Anton Simon & Karen Chizzy & Pasha Debbie & Gio Gemma & Aljaz Aston & Janette Rev Rich & Dianne Davood & Nadiya Joe & Katya Johnie & Oti Brian & Amy Mollie and AJ as a couple though *.*
September 10, 20177 yr Lmao @ AJ getting the Derek treatment, first Poundland Laurie Hernandez and now Mollie?
September 16, 20177 yr Author The dances and songs for week 1 have been announced: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/strictlycomedan...82-fd7a44d509e4 Got to say I'm surprised to see both the Paso and Foxtrot coming out this early in the series. Should be an interesting first show by all accounts! Also the launch show was brilliant last week. They have got the pairings so right this year. The Brucie tribute was very moving mind. I had actual Shirley Ballas read my live blog I did for it as well - she Tweeted me to say so! Can't get higher praise than that. It's all here if you missed it: http://wp.me/p4UO9N-pG
