September 25, 20186 yr First contestant teaser: Looks like Emma Atkins maybe to me, people are saying Gaby Roslin too which I can also kinda see. Other rumours are Brian McFadden, Wes from Love Island and Helen Skelton.
September 25, 20186 yr Karen Barber is back as head coach, ffs was hoping she'd be on the panel so Torville and Dean could go back to coaching but no such luck :lol:
October 1, 20186 yr Author Very good names indeed. Hyped of course for Gemma!! Will have to do a sweepstake on this too.
October 2, 20186 yr James Jordan confirmed :manson: Also Brian McFadden, yawn Absolutely buzzing for Gemma though, she's gonna be TV gold :lol:
October 2, 20186 yr I see two of TV's biggest irritants are on - Collins and Jordan. Gemma will probably quit before January
October 2, 20186 yr Will be interesting to see how well James does considering he can dance normally but I guess on ice it can be different.
October 2, 20186 yr James Jordan? What a joke. Yes, he’s not a skater but that’s just one element of it. He’s got a complete headstart in terms of learning routines, rhythm/movements etc and could even help choreograph routines!! Although I suppose the joke started with Gemma being signed up, no chance she’ll stick it out/give it any effort.
October 2, 20186 yr I thought that with James, even if he is totally hopeless at skating to begin with, he has a huge headstart and will probably be one of the best as he will only have to learn skating whereas the others are learning two things at once. I hope he's not another Jake as that was boring af that he just cruised to the win last time, it was part of why the series felt a bit limp. And OF COURSE no comments about his dance experience underneath its announcement on Twitter, just "mmm hunk xxxxxx" from Susan, 45 from Bridgewater.... Also Saira Khan's signed up *.*
October 2, 20186 yr James will definitely have a headstart! The dances they do in Strictly are also used in ice dance too so all of his experience and athleticism will be a very strong start point for him. It'll just be a case of not freaking out that it's on ice now!
October 3, 20186 yr Ryan Sidebottom is next to be revealed. Nope no idea either (a cricketer apparently so no wonder I guess x).
October 4, 20186 yr PCD's Melody Thornton next to be annouced. I’m not sure how well she will do. She’s not as likeable as Ashley or Kimberly. Isn’t as known as Nicole. At least she isn’t the other one... I want to say Jessica.
October 4, 20186 yr Omg adlib queen, agreed though I can't see her doing well, unless she's undeniably the best there or something and even then she might be the one the public struggles to take to. Watch as the bored housewives drool over James but Melody gets hate for having "dance experience" as part of PCD :lol:
October 4, 20186 yr Jane Danson (Leanne from Coronation Street) now confirmed! Seems to be a stronger line-up than last year, I'd say.
