Strictly Come Dancing 2011

As all the other threads seem to have died off I thought I'd start a new one in anticipation of this Friday's first live show.

I have to say I'm not too bothered about the Celebs this year, but then again I'm more interested in watching the professionals anyway!

The line up for each of the two shows has been announced (from BBC website):

On Friday 30th September the couples performing for the first time on live television will be:

?Alex
?Anita
?Audley
?Dan
?Lulu
?Robbie
?Russell

Then on Saturday 1st October the couples performing for the first time together will be:

?Chelsee
?Edwina
?Harry
?Holly
?Jason
?Nancy
?Rory

Please note the running order has yet to be confirmed. The celebrities have been listed above in alphabetical order.

They will dance either a Waltz or a Cha Cha Cha, but I'm not 100% sure who is doing what.

My overriding thought in the run up for the series so far has been "I hope the wardrobe department come up with some decent foundations for poor Chelsee!"
That outfit they've put her in for the promo shots makes her boobs look humungous Shock

Anyone else care to share their thoughts in advance?

Oh dear :(

DuffyMoon · 01/10/2011 18:48

know its been done a billion times but it is amazing what counts for celebrity these days...

Aww poor nancy, drated feather boa, reckon she could have been ok otherwise.

CaveMum · 01/10/2011 18:48

Nancy - hmm, took a bit of a while to get her on her feet! Shame about the wardrobe malfunction. She has no balance at all and I'd say is not long for this competition!

I do love Anton, whoever he is saddled with!

Was that intentional with the feathers? Confused the comedy beginning was uneccessary.

HazeltheMcWitch · 01/10/2011 18:48

Italian royalty? WTF ???

Gigondas · 01/10/2011 18:49

What's with all this dress fiddling and sofa sitting? I cant believe she is going to get a high phone vote .

Gigondas · 01/10/2011 18:49

I know Hazel Angry

bebeballroom · 01/10/2011 18:49

Ok so was intentional, why didn't she ditch it earlier? Unfortunate, threw her a bit I think

ilove · 01/10/2011 18:51

a 1!!! She isn't doing well...

DuffyMoon · 01/10/2011 18:51

arf !

perfumedlife · 01/10/2011 18:52

I see Lulus perked up a lot since Nancy's dance Hmm

FoofFighters · 01/10/2011 18:52

One! Oooft!

Gigondas · 01/10/2011 18:52

She will have insisted on outfit - I thought generally outfits were designed with the dancing In mind.

Hopes Jason will be good

lucjam · 01/10/2011 18:54

Jasons lush isn't he. Reckon he could be quite good, hope so. Looks better with age I reckon.

DuffyMoon · 01/10/2011 18:55

lovely - cant beat a little self deprecation...

TheDailyWail · 01/10/2011 18:55

He's enjoying himself!

TheDailyWail · 01/10/2011 18:55

He's enjoying himself!

FoofFighters · 01/10/2011 18:55

Oooh go Jason!

NoseyNooNoo · 01/10/2011 18:56

Lucjam - He is indeed Lush!

bebeballroom · 01/10/2011 18:56

LOVED it! Go Jason!

CaveMum · 01/10/2011 18:56

The props have been imported from Dancing With the Stars, much to my disappointment. I wish they'd go back to how it used to be.

Jason - a born entertainer. Bent knees but overall good footwork. Best Cha Cha Cha of the night.

I reckon as he gets older Jason is starting to look disturbingly like his Dad.

lucjam · 01/10/2011 18:57

WOW FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh I soooooooooooooooo want to dance with him, be in his arms, sigh!

DuffyMoon · 01/10/2011 18:57

I like the slighly older ones doing well - gives me hope
