    Cassidy could fling my cape around anytime :D

    This has been amazing. They should have done it years ago!!! Its going to be really difficult to choose who to support, they are all so lovely and deserving. I think i'll just support all of them :)

    I love all the extra stuff laid on for the contestants - memories of a lifetime in the making.

    Well what a load of rubbish that was. I really thought they would all be dancing tonight and get voted off... I really couldn't care about their background and how they love their partner....

    Really enjoyed that, all excellent choices to compete, and great trying vids, not a 'comedy' VT in sight

    What a great show. So moving. I was welling up a lot. Such incredible people. I was so happy when Cassidy got Natalie and it was lovely to see Vincent and Flavia again. This should definitely be an annual thing. Really looking forward to next week.

    Really enjoyed that! Much better than I thought it would be.

    Unbelievably good choices of people, people who are really deserving, really nice and also who love the show.

    All good.

    And me. What joy to see Ian back, and dancing again. The programme started slowly but got better and better. Brilliant, worthy contestants. :)

    What worthy contestants, they set an example to the rest of us. I was filled with admiration for all three of them. Lovely idea to do this programme and even though I blubbed a couple of times I had a nice warm feeling watching these people get some extra joy in their lives after giving it to many others.

    Glad I decided to watch. I don't usually watch this kind of show, where the hardship of others to overcome adversity is the main reason for watching. However, this whole idea has been brilliantly meshed with Comic Relief to make it a very worthwhile show. If these three people are an indication of the nominations, I can only imagine how hard it was to choose six contestants.

    Must thank my husband for deciding to clean his teeth after Bake Off because we were going to watch something else! :D

    So lovely to see so many Strictly oldies taking part. What a great idea and it was great to see such a very well thought out introductory programme.

    Cassidy looks lovely. ;-) Think this Scot will be voting for him. :D

    But doesn't he have previous dance experience? Would that not make him a dirty ringaaah? Or does previous experience only matter when it is celebrities doing it.

    Both my favourite pro's taking part. Do I support Ian or do I support Natalie? Maybe I will just have to support both :)

    It did seem that they had been getting things right before this show and the first program continued that.

    So far this is better than the current real Strictly and in fact resurrects some of the feel of Strictly years ago in terms of the 'people' and their pros being what its about. Hopefully it will not get cluttered with backing dancers.

    Great to see Ian, Flavia and Vincent involved and I'm impressed how easily these non-showbiz types have switched into their parts, which says a lot about how well this has been planned and implemented. They have also selected excellent pro dancers and dances.

    Anna and Cassidy will likely be the two who will dance impressively, but Michael and Heather looked a bit better than I expected.

    Good job so far - big thumbs up from me!

    Goodness. I didn't think I was interested in watching members of the public on Strictly but I'm hooked. That was so well done. I loved it!
