Is there a Strictly 2018 thread yet?

[xsquared]

Lots of rumours of who is going to be on but none confirmed as far as I know.

The real full monty* Faye will surely pull out the STEPS moves

He'll be good if he has a Pro that can make him stick to the choreography IMO (having only seen him on RD ) So far we are on Team Piper though!

xsquared - I forgot about Mollie, I was thinking about Frankie, she was great.

Faye Tozer - surely she's ex-stage school? She'll be the 'too good' one.

Danny John-Jules - don't really know him. Not a red dwarf fan.

Wonder which Enders actor we will get we had Davood last year so might be a woman

Agree that Faye may be our ringer this series.

I loved Frankie Bridge and she waz robbed because of Caroline dance degree flack still gives me the rage

I’m here folks! Sorry I’m late to the party.

No real surprises in the announcements so far, can’t wait for the rest of the line up!

They need a "fat lass" and a "comedy chappie" yet.

Rob Beckett would be good. Or Romesh.

Danny John Jules was / is a West End theatre dancer.
In the original cast of Starlight Express, was also in Cats, Barnum,
movies include Little Shop of Horrors as one of the Doo-Wop singers/ dancers, Labyrinth with David Bowie
Music Videos include Wham's "Edge of Heaven"

He is the male Debbie
DANNEH
maybe they'll hobble him by giving him to Janette

Yes Mozzie but is he FIFTY NINE????

ooh so close he is FIFTY SEVEN!!!!

So we’re still waiting for:

Soap star
BBC news/weather/whatever person
Curvy woman
Comedy bloke
Another ringer to create arguments over who is the bigger ringer (see Debbie vs Alexandra)
Sports person

Danny john, I'm in heaven. This is really good for me. I haven't been able to watch for four years. Mum was a big fan and we'd always discus it on Sunday, and I would tell her who was out (thanks to digital spy). When Mum died, I found it just too difficult to watch, though always followed results. Now Dwayne is on I just have to watch.

I am sorry about your mum user we all tend to watch it together so watch with us

I like the lineup so far! Danny john jules was one of my favourites in Maid Marian on children's BBC.

We have to get a random last years sleb Rev will be hard to beat

Thanks for the invite Mrsjayy, I will do that, I'm determined to be 'brave " this year. I know Mum would be furious with me for not watching. Four years of recording every episode and then deleting them ends this year

I'd really like Anneka Rice, so many people have fond memories of her on treasure hunt and challenge Anneka, and I think she'd give it a good go. Also I'd like an ex blue Peter presenter, they were a lot of fun for the children in need one last year.

ooh yes Mrs Radzi was good on that. Konnie said she would never do a full series. Anthea?
User ready to hug you every Saturday.

I'll have to look up Danny Jules, not sure who he is

Would love Anneka Rice, she was great in celebrity Hunted

Didn't Anthea do a Christmas Strictly, I could be getting mixed up

I'm going to miss Brendan, he's always been my favorite, since day one of the first series.

User, we're here and ready to dance with you

Anneka is funny on Twitter. Also going to miss Brendan but he didn’t seem to be enjoying it as much as he used to.

Hi all,

Can I join - I love strictly

Loving the line up so far and can’t wait to see who else we are going to get x

Brenda got really grumpy in the last series, I'm glad he won't be there. I was never that moved by his partnerships or dancing tbh. Are there any announcements planned today?

User.

I don't know who DJJ is, but Faye from Steps might be good. (I had to look up which one she was.)
