KEEP DANCING EVERYONE

Hopefully this thread will see some closure to the unpleasantness in the form of findings; as well as the build up to the beginning.

Oh was that on more4 ? I saw it advertised then couldn't find it.

@Mrsjayy it was indeed. I just had a Quick Look and can’t find it now. Perhaps it will be repeated now his profile is being raised. It was called Wonders of the World I can’t see and was really interesting and very funny.

I heard an interview with CMcC a few weeks ago when he was first rumoured to be doing it. When he was asked if the rumours were true he said he hadn't seen any rumours.

They might re show it I'll have a look though.

Who has been announced?

I've seen Radio 2 is announcing someone after 11am.

@Umanresources I found it on the ch4 player I started watching it last night Harry hill and Chris in Greece eating horrible fish soup was a highlight 😀

Vernon is going to be announcing 3 contestants this morning,.

I nearly had a shock seeing him pop up on Strictly's stories - thought he was going to participate for a moment there!

Wynne Evans - Is he the Go Compare guy that was on Celebrity Master Chef?

Yes that's him, I wonder why they are announcing the men first.

Couldn't tell if he said Will or Wynne so glad to know it's Wynne. Not heard of him at all.

Is he the opera singer one?

He's a professional opera singer but he is famous for the go compare advert but went on to do other things.

That's an interesting choice of contestant.

In honesty, he'll probably be the one face that everyone recognises, so even if we don't know the name, he's probably the most famous of everyone!

Toyah Wilcox just announced

how the heck has she not done it before now??

It's a mystery! 😉

Dr Punam Krishan from BBC Morning Live just announced.

Dr Punam Krishan announced. TV doctor.

Never heard of her

Thank you for the new thread!

I really liked Wynne on Celeb Masterchef, so hopefully he'll be good on this.

Somebody has managed to spell Toyah's surname wrongly on the Facebook post, which isn't the best start!

You would have thought! Maybe .needs the money.

Wynne was very nice on Celeb MasterChef, although rather too prone to bursting into song in a Hyacinth Bucket-ish way. Popbitch claims he dubs the higher notes for Russell Watson.

Toyah is a true blast from the past.

HA!

I do like the Dr she's a fellow Scot so I will be unashamedly voting for her 😂

Same. Surely there are more famous TV doctors?

Oh I love Wynne Evans. And he's such a surprise as well. Not heard the slightest rumour. Really pleased about that.

Toyah is great, but not a surprise and I suspect that her skeletal issues may mean that she's not as good as people expect. I'd be delighted if she's great though, she's got such a big personality, in a good way.
