Starting a new thread as can't seem to find one yet, and suddenly feeling very aware that we are likely only days away from line up announcements!

Who do we all think will be on the line up this year? I thought last year was one of the best line ups, a good mix.

Rumours so far include Gino D'Campo, Scarlett Moffat, Steph McGovern, Dawn French..

The first announcements last year were on Wednesday 4th August, so hopefully the same again this year..

She was great on Throw down and I wished she had finished the series I felt Siobhan didn't have the same rapport with this years contestants.

Maireas · 09/08/2022 11:59

The Ellie - Siobhan thing began to spoil a lovely thread on the Throwdown, which was a shame. It's such a great programme, with interesting tasks and the presenters are really just oiling the wheels.
I agree with you about the Repair Shop, Sheldon - what lovely people and what a compelling show. Any of them would be a delight.

FartOutLoudDay · 09/08/2022 12:03

Didn’t one of the repair shop guys do the Christmas special last year?

Maireas · 09/08/2022 12:04

Ah yes. Fella with the flat cap. Lovely he was.

oh no Sad

A wee tribute would be lovely.

To Xanadu.

Definitely to Xanadu
That song and dance scene was the best part of nine perfect strangers for me.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 09/08/2022 12:25

Love Jay.

Love all of them.

I think it would make for a delightful turn round the floor.

Oh yes, he did! He was quite good, if I remember rightly?

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 09/08/2022 13:02

Apols if anyone else has mentioned it but Adrian Dunbar is confirmed! Mother of God! Now we're cooking with gas!

BoreOfWhabylon · 09/08/2022 13:08

Oh wow, that really does excite me! Wonder if he'll bring the Wee Donkey with him Grin

Although, I hear AD can be a dreadful luvvie, unlike Noble Ted Hastings.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 09/08/2022 13:09

Sorry, might have jumped the gun there - saw a Tweet but not sure it's actually official. Bugger.

Sparklingbrook · 09/08/2022 13:10

Had to Google Adrian Dunbar and the. Happy with Matt Goss and Will Mellor (I feel they might become friends).

Sparklingbrook · 09/08/2022 13:11

*and the Luke West guy.

Don't do that to me Gasp0de!

Love both Ellie Taylor & Adrian Dunbar. It's a cracking line up this year so far.

Wonder if it's a we are out of the worst covid touch wood but stars calendars haven't got full up yet???

GonnaGetGoingReturns · 09/08/2022 14:58

The line up looks interesting. Who do we think will do well? I like Kaye Adams and Ellie Simmonds.

MrsJamin · 09/08/2022 16:26

Where did they announce Adrian Dunbar?

Mrsjayy · 09/08/2022 16:28

Twitter but Is just a rumour 😥

balalake · 09/08/2022 17:35

Eliie Taylor has quite long legs, will be interesting to see the costumes.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 09/08/2022 17:45

@MrsJamin, sorry, that was me spreading misinformation. The tweet I saw got a few Line of Duty fans going and then the tweeter said sorry and admitted it was a joke, but not before I'd made a fool of myself here. Sackcloth and ashes here. Sad Blush

Lottapianos · 09/08/2022 17:48

I didn't know whether to be excited or horrified at the Adrian Dunbar prospect! 😁

Ah, easily done. Do folks not realise that you shouldn't joke about Strictly 😡

AnneShirleysNewDress · 09/08/2022 18:07

Matt Goss! My 10 year old self is delighted 😍

RockStarMartini · 09/08/2022 18:29

I think it’s a dreadful line up, really Z list 🙄I’ve hardly heard of any of them and those I have are mostly has-beens

Were you hoping for Tom Cruise or Lady Gaga??
