Re: Strictly Contestants revealed

Ooh... thanks for that Jennie, I'm a great fan of Strictly The line-up looks quite good too ....I wonder who will be the Ann Widdecombe of the bunch this year? Poor Anton deserves to be matched with a good dancer this time.

It starts this Saturday when dancers and contestants are matched an introduced to each other.
Can't wait!!!

Re: Strictly Contestants revealed

Re: Strictly Contestants revealed

Weyyy heyyy excited now!!

Re: Strictly Contestants revealed

Great Saturday night viewing....looking forward to it

Re: Strictly Contestants revealed

I can picture Lulu doing quite well ..... also Jason Donovan

Re: Strictly Contestants revealed

Every year I say I am going to watch strictly,and every year i catch just little snippets of it, it is not a programme that i have ever gotten into, the bits i see are very good but i always find something else to do.

Re: Strictly Contestants revealed

Me too Shirley, I love the bits I do catch, then I wished I'd watched it all properly from the beginning. I'll try harder this year. My money's on Lulu but Anita Dobson winning would be brilliant!

Re: Strictly Contestants revealed

I think you folks are right about Lulu - looking at this footage she can move a bit. The big surprise to me is Russell Grant . Again, only snippets of footage .. but despite his size and shape - he's surprisingly light on his feet:
