August 5, 20195 yr Someone’s being announced on Loose Women at 1:15 A young slim male judging by the silhouette of him. Judging from the clues; chelsea flag and also mcvitees biscuit with tea, its Jamie from MIC
August 5, 20195 yr ....and Jamie is now confirmed They really must have been struggling this year, he turns up at the opening of an envelope. Expecting Lizzie Cundy next
August 5, 20195 yr World table tennis champion Will Bayley was also confirmed earlier :mellow: I mean I'm not expecting Brad Pitt and Lady Gaga but still :lol:
August 5, 20195 yr Will Bayley, I think he's a Paralympic gold medallist at table tennis. Can't say I'm familiar with him. Another relatively unknown Paralympican taking part then. I'm not sure how much coverage he had when he won gold.
August 5, 20195 yr Michelle alone saves it tbh but it is dire, one of those where I've got a couple I'm really looking forward to (her and Cath) then most of the rest I couldn't care less. Strictly is one of those shows where it's great either way but it is nice to have a good lineup so you're hyped and invested to the max from the start.
August 6, 20195 yr Confirmed Emma Barton (EastEnders actress) Emma Weymouth (eh?) Saffron Barker (Youtuber) Alex Scott (Former England Footballer) Catherine Tyldesley (Corrie actress) Michelle Visage (Icon and Diva) David James (England Goalkeeper) Chris Ramsay (Comedian) Mike Bushell (BBC Breakfast Presenter) Karim Zeroual (CBBC Presenter) Jamie Laing (MIC) Will Bayley (Paralympian)
August 6, 20195 yr Anneka Rice and James Cracknell now confirmed?! At least I know who they are! They've been confirmed by the Sun, but not by the Beeb (yet)
August 6, 20195 yr Alex Scott (England footballer and now Football Pundit) has been announced. Really suprised at her as her pundit career seems to be going from strength to strength! I know it feels a bit contradictory to the whole ‘there’s no celebrities’ comments but it feels an odd time for her to go on as she’s not at that point of needing to make a name for herself or where her media career has/is peaking. I guess it’s building on the success of Woman’s football though and she’s probably partially doing it to further increase its coverage.
August 7, 20195 yr Barring Michelle's brief pop career, there aren't any singer/ popstars. Which from a 'ringer' perspective should make this series pretty open given last year Faye and Ashley were a lock for the final unless they came up against each other due to how good they were.
August 7, 20195 yr Barring Michelle's brief pop career, there aren't any singer/ popstars. Which from a 'ringer' perspective should make this series pretty open given last year Faye and Ashley were a lock for the final unless they came up against each other due to how good they were. it's clear they want a drama-free series. that's probably why they wanted to stay away from popstars + chose middle of the road 'celebs'. the whole seann walsh debacle, plus faye & ashley receiving a lot of backlash meant the beeb were in a state of damage control from early on.
August 7, 20195 yr Any dance background will only be revealed as soon as said celebrity tops the scoreboard so the tabloids can get maximum impact/outrage. Not directly relevant but just look at the Daily Star today having it’s front page headline based on one joke sarcastic tweet from Gary Linekar.
August 7, 20195 yr I look forward to Emma Barton as it will be a chance to get to know her outside her role as Honey in EastEnders.
August 21, 20195 yr Graziano and Gorka have confirmed they're not getting partners this year... which means that previously benched Johannes and Neil must be getting partners
