Is anyone else ridiculously excited about the Strictly launch tonight?

[CeliaFate]

I can't wait! It's the highlight of my Saturday. Got my wine and nibbles in ready. Da da da da da da da, da da da da da DUH DUH DUH DUH
I've got high hopes for Holly, Harry and possible Lulu.

Ohhhh no Currie for Anton

Who did Alex get? I missed it coz DH was jabbering.

Yep, definatley Edwina and Anton I think

James Jordan

thanks Norfolk

OOh, yes, Happygomummy - I'll be a founding member of that campaign

My DH can't stand Lulu. Will need to get rid or I'll be stuck watching in the bedroom for the next few months.

Ooh Nancy and Anton, didn't see that one coming!

Poor Vincent

Hello everyone! Can anyone remember which male dancer isn't in it this year? I was thinking Brian but was that 2 years ago?

prickly how do we start?

Lots of posts in AIBU? Though we might get shouted at for that....

I'm in = couldn't get to laptop.

OMG they have their work cut out with this lot

Aw Russell is a sweetie

Chelsea, please look at Dolly Parton - she is your future

Russell going for it!

crikey, Edwina looks out of her depth already but Alex Jones looked very comfortable

Was Harry the McFly one who did it for Comic Relief? I really want Rory to be good.

He was Eglu

I want a campaign to protect anton and give him a chance. MInd you he stands more of a chance seeing as he hasn't got egg curry.

I feel sorry for flavia aswell she will be going home quickly. I quite like Lulu but I hate Brendan with a passion so the sooner he goes the better.

3 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!! No way, can't wait that long.

Ooooh. Have just seen the guy from Daybreak. Might have to start watching it now. I reckon Jason Donovan is going to do well, as will Holly Valance. I am not keen on the Waterloo Road girl but partly because I've never seen her in anything.

I thought Catherine Tate was doing it for a bit. I took a while to realise it was Anita Dobson. .

Does anyone feel much warmer towards all the slebs after that? Their obvious fear makes them vulnerable and much more likeable. Even Robbie savage whom I usually detest.

Altho I am not impressed with silly Waterloo Road bint who has had norks and lips done.

Happy worth a try? Who's going first?

Bloody hell, Audley is a big 'un. Jason Donovan is so going to win.

Tess called at least 3 people by the wrong name tonight, and she's wearing a dress my sister wore as a bridesmaid in 1973.

Audley (and his size 17 feet) is my man for this series. Rory's quite sweet too if he cuts down on the impressions
