Oh my goodness - me again - just seen that Colin Salmon is in it. I remember him from Prime Suspect, he was just gorgeous. I feel a lot of perving coming on
I saw Colin Salmon in a local shop once, gorgeous man
I predict Jerry Hall will be a diva, Vicky Pendleton will in tears during her first lesson, Michael Vaughan will not be the next Mark Ramprakash, Aliona will get Louis Smith because she has compromising photos of someone high up at the BBC and Denise Van Outen will be voted out early as she is a "ringer"
Oops. I started a new thread cos I couldn't find this one....
I'm already rooting for Vicky P. and Louis Smith. I already have it in for Denise Van Oosit. (Not FAIR she was in Chicago. I bet one of you has already pointed this out.)
I love Vicky P. Never did a girl with so much talent and capacity for hard work wear her heart QUITE so much on her sleeve. I also love Micky Vaughan, and we all know about how well cricketers do.
I suppose I have to keep an open mind about the b listers I have never heard of....
Yeah honest - West End and Broadway. Ok it's very much one style of dancing - but serious stuff and Bob Fosse type choreography is well difficult. I've only ever seen the film - I assume she was in the Renee Z role.
There is a totally brilliant tango in it - here's a bit of it (not the best bit)
Only saw the last 15 mins due to silly early start and swim training clash so am really really hoping they put it back - around 7.30 start would mean I didn't miss much.....
I'm routing for Louis as an ex (very very ex several decades ago) gymnast and will make up my mind about the rest as we go along - was agin DVO from the start as I've never been keen on her and now I've been reminded she's a ringer I'm totally agin her!
Anyone know how they're running it this year? Judges vote out, public vote out? 1 show or the fake 2 shows?

Just been announced on The One Show that Nicky Byrne is also taking part.
Monday night they will announce the whole group!
I think Dani took part in Let's Dance for Sport Relief, she was quite good.
I don't understand any of the cryptic clues!
It's probably been done before, but who would some of the people on your dream line-up be? Dominic West would be on my list... *swoon*
Nice choice, STB! My list would be:
Richard Armitage
Vincent Leclerc
Mark Cavendish
Janko Tipsarevic
Sean Bean
Jake Gyllenhaal (sp?)
Out of those names I only know Cav and Sean Bean, I notice your dream line-up only contains male stars!
I'd like to see Andy Murray, Jessica Ennis, and Bradley Wiggins have a go.
Somehow can't see Brad doing it Not his scene!
Full (nearly) list of slebs on Daily Mail website. Have to say it is looking good for this year, doesn't seem to be any 'comedy' ones so far.
I would add Damian Lewis to my dream line up

Here's the list
I have to say that Lewis Smith would make my dream line up too, when I watched him in the Lympix I thought he was stunningly handsome
There does seem to be a couple who are already going to be way ahead of the game (Denise vO) and will suffer a backlash from GBP I fear
6 more sleeps
Agree on Lewis Smith, he's very tasty.

Ahh, can't wait! I hope Aliona gets someone good (Louis Smith would be great) - I've really enjoyed her performances over the last two years.
Hello everyone. Can't wait for this one. Louis for me.
Time to get the sequins out?
Now where's the glitter ball?

Err yep ... Little N you pointed out Denise Va Oosit's ringer qualification. Hello!
Hello Sharkie
I didn't realise she'd been in Chicago, she really is a ringer I am rooting for Colin, unless he is rubbish!
*unpacks sequins and feather boa from storage*
Just over an hour to go

cell block tango
Here we go
Squeee!
Could the Ball genes come into play?
I can see Victoria and Brendan clashing if she starts going into self-loathing mode, then again I bet she'll work her socks off so she could be great
H'mm. No glaring disasters in the group show dance. Though the TV presenter chap looked a bit lost at one point
Yes it didn't really show much, I guess Louis and Flavia should be good and I have a good feeling about VP and Brendan.
Some things don't change, Bruce is still doddery and Tess wears the oddest dresses.
Johnny and Aliona - hope she doesn't do her normal loopy choreography
These 3 weeks are going to feel v. long
*looks round with a contented sigh*
how very nice to be back again

Yes I was surprised when Natalie didn't go with Colin - height-wise it makes sense
