Strictly 2020, Bubbles and no Bruno?

[Mrsemcgregor]

I’m not sure if there is a thread already, please direct me to it if there is!

It’s summer which means its the time of year I start musing about which celebs might be up for the glitter ball trophy this year! I was a bit worried we might not be getting a series this year but a quick google reassured me plans are in place.

So it looks like they are hoping for bubbles between the stars and professionals families, possibly weekly CV testing and temp checks. Hair, make up and costume to be done with PPE. Sounds like they could put on a fairly similar show to normal. No audience though, which will be weird. And I guess no gathering of contestants for the scores, which will be weird. Will the whole thing lack atmosphere?

Hopefully tonight Polka Sings..... "Tonight Tonight..." from my favourite musical of all time .

Hello Fuzzy Sorry I feel ignorant Bill, B, who he??

THREE contestants to be announced on The One Show tonight!

@PolkadotsAndMoonbeams , thanks for those clips
I love Ian Waite , watching him on it takes 2 is almost as good as actually watching Strictly !

THREE contestants to be announced on The One Show tonight!

I literally clicked on this thread to say this! I'm so so so excited... Way more than I should be really!!

I was also returning with One Show news!! I won’t be able to watch, can someone update me as they are announced please?!

I'm hoping they are announcements that haven't been strongly rumoured yet! I'd love some complete surprises.

Caroline Quentin. Love her but bet she can't dance

She did ballet from 3-12..
They've just said she did tap dancing too and modern dance. I think she'll be better than expected, but not quite a full ringer maybe.

Sounds like she used to be able to dance so she shouldn't be absolutely terrible.

NFL football as a clue for the next contestant? Bit stuck on this one, the only person I could think of is Vernon Kay as I think he has something to do with NFL.. would he do it though?

Checking in at last - I can’t believe it’s actually going ahead this year!

I thought Vernon was doing the jungle

I hope it's not some really obscure NFL player

Excited for this year and I’m so glad I took the opportunity to see the final last year.

Caroline Quentin was absolutely hilarious is a comedy called The Other One earlier this year. She stole the scenes she was in IMO

Does Steve Jones do NFL stuff?

Does Steve Jones do NFL stuff?

Not sure, he really irritates me, not sure why!

DS1 was unable to offer any suggestions for the NFL person.

coveting I suspect I’m getting him mixed up with Gethin Jones who is the one I find really annoying - thankfully that ship has sailed!

Maybe they're going for NFL as their sports person ?

Who is that? I missed it. Jason someone.

No idea who this guy is. Oh well, he seems quite fun!

Jason Bell, he looked familiar so googled him, I think I only know him because he used to date Nadine Coyle from Girls Aloud, so recognise him from gossip mag pictures.

I only know of Jason Bell as his ex girlfriend is Nadine from Girls Aloud.

Jason Bell. He seems very enthusiastic, and a six year old DD is the right age to enjoy it.
