Two celebs confirmed so far for the 2014 series:

Frankie from The Saturdays
Judy Murray (Andy's mum)

Not sure if they are deliberately only releasing one name at a time, but it can't be long before the big reveal.

So polish off your Cuban heels and slip into something tight and sparkly, it's almost here!

Winner predictions - rugby/model, the blond couple ( who look like twins)

Biased towards Steve though!Blush

FrankelandFilly · 07/09/2014 22:22

Not seen enough to make a full judgement yet but Frankie and Pixie are definite early favourites with Simon not far behind. I expect Thom to do well, rugby players always do.

I loved that Steve Backshall was all "I'm very flexible" (oo-er missus) "but I've no idea how to dance". He's just adorably enthusiastic about everything.

Well that was interesting; I agree about Pixie and new boy (notice she said she hadn't done ballroom but had been to stage school, I prophesy trouble!!!).

Ref. the wardrobe dept. they shove a lot of dresses on a rail and the girls choose their own !!!!!! The girl in charge said on It Takes 2 last series.

OnlyLovers · 08/09/2014 10:05

I LOVE Claudia! Strictly is already 10000 times better with her on it. Tess is automatically less irritating.

As usual, I know hardly any of the contestants, but here we go:

Aliona is an ungracious, rude twat. Face permanently like a well-skelpt arse. I think her agent has the producers over a barrel and was able to insist on her coming back this year because she saved their bacon stepping in last year when Natalie got injured. I hope she goes soon.

Gregg W is a weirdo (anyone see him on GBBO: An Extra Slice?)
Woman from Mrs Brown's Boys seems like a laugh. Don't know what I think of Tristan yet but I like his tattoos.

Woman from This Morning is a laugh too. I think she and Aljaz will get on.

Love Judy Murray. Wish she had a younger hotter partner though. Grin

Thom thingy (rugby) is a bit boring. There'll be loads of jokes about his chest/general looks. Tedious.

Scott Mills is a weirdo and also deeply boring. Joanne from Grimsby needs to dial down the enthusiasm just a touch.

Love Natalie and think Bargain Hunt man is going to be fun.

Pixie Lott is good but people won't like her. She's a bit insipid.

Frankie thingy will also be quite good but I'm not (so far) finding her interesting.

Can't remember anyone else ...

Oh yes, I'll miss Artem. He was sweet and I liked his choreography.

ppeatfruit · 08/09/2014 10:10

Onlylovers I agree about Joanne she was like a labrador puppy Grin all over the place.

Love Claud too ,but Judy seems a bit "I don't know why tf I'm here" IFYSWIM, maybe she feels that tone needs to be added!

FrankelandFilly · 08/09/2014 10:13

I've reported the spam.

OP posts:
ArcheryAnnie · 08/09/2014 10:14

Ha, me too! (Why do companies think that will work?)

OnlyLovers · 08/09/2014 10:16

What's the spam?

I think Judy is just a bit reserved at the moment, ppeat,but will relax as she goes on. I'm sure Anton will bring her out of her shell; he normally seems to get on with his slebs like a house on fire.

OnlyLovers · 08/09/2014 10:16

Oh, just seen the spam. Sorry. Blush

Mrsjayy · 08/09/2014 10:21

Reported that spam too joanne from grimsby doesn't have the same ring to it. Janette looks different this year and I cant work out what it is

Mrsjayy · 08/09/2014 10:24

I think frankie from the saturdays will be uber competitive and weep a lot. I agree folk wont like pixie lott

OnlyLovers · 08/09/2014 10:26

Who did Janette have last year? I don't remember her at all. Sorry Janette!

ppeatfruit · 08/09/2014 10:27

Yes it could be she was nervous (understandably) OnlyLovers.

Hi Mrsjayy Grin

I've got a 'no spam' prog. on my comp dh is hot on it.

Mrsjayy · 08/09/2014 10:32

She had julian mcdonald .

OnlyLovers · 08/09/2014 10:37

Oh yes, thank you, Mrsjayy.

AppleYumYum · 08/09/2014 11:21

I know he's a bit of a waking cliche, but golly gosh that Thom is drooooooool, I'm looking forward to watching him in tight Lycra. Natalie looked disappointed, she'd def hook up with him in no time, though I do like Iveta.

digerd · 08/09/2014 11:25

At last something enjoyable to watch on Saturday nights!Smile.
Was so looking forward to the group dance but was sidetracked by the profi dancers and missed the celebs.
So will have to wait until next Sat. to form an opinion of the contestants.
I was struck by the happy atmosphere of all except Aliona.

Loving having the graceful elegant Natalie back but fear she will not stay for long with her partner having seen a bit of his "dancing".

Anton was beaming with his partner - easy for him to lift for a change.

Mrsjayy · 08/09/2014 11:28

digerd it doesnt start till friday 26th ?

MintyChops · 08/09/2014 12:05

Thought Judy Murray seemed really lovely, hope she does well. I can already imagine all the tedious chest-related perving at Thom and mock-fainting/swooning by Bruno. Craig will of course also do some perving but at least he is entertaining in that fabulous arch way he has.

Reckon pixie will be too good from the start, like DVO, and will be v irritating but last to the end then not win......

The Irish guy is cringy. I say that as an Irishwoman. Why on earth did they put him with the Mrs Brown's Boys woman? For Paddy jokes?

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 08/09/2014 17:14

Brucie would have loved them - much easier to make jokes about!
