Thanks, Jan! Now I remember - Andrew Castle. And vaguely the Lobb guy too. Yeah, they were both pretty bad. Maybe John's got the right idea My favorite tennis crush, back in the day, was Bjorn. Wish he'd do it! There was another cutie named Guillermo Vilas. Those were the days when the tennis players were HOT. Raffi is too but he's too current to do it, I guess. And Federer as well. Still, even with the sorry track record, I'd love to see those guys - there's always an exception to prove the rule.
I wish Borg or Vilas would do the American show because we've had two winners over 50, a male & a female, so maybe they'd have a better chance over here? Or perhaps someday an oldster will break through in the UK. Maybe our viewership over here skews a lot older than yours? I know about 1/6th of the UK watches Strictly - while a much lower percent in the US watches, whatever percent 20 million is out of 300 million - I suck at mathematics, ahem.
Anyway, Huffington Post has a fairly long video (10 minutes or so) showing every couple: most of their first meetings and some of their first rehearsals, including Gladys and Tristan, Lili. Tristan kept saying his Ma was gonna be thrilled. And Gladys said she was dizzy after they broke hold after spinning around, and Tristan rushed back over to grab her hand - awwww. He's SO sweet. And then she said, "Where's the room?"
Hope this link works but I went to Huffpo and searched around to find it:
Looks like a lot of the latest videos on Youtube have been removed due to copyright, hope that doesn't happen for the clips of the show. Otherwise it will be a damp squib for those of us that only get to watch it that way.
Katherine has tweeted her voting phone number....I hope those fans that will vote for her in the UK realise the number she has tweeted is in the USA or there could be some shocked faces come phone bill time.
It's a toll free number to call in and vote using the prefix 800 which indicates toll free.. I am not sure if 800 numbers work overseas. Can you dial an 800 number in the UK?
I do know UK fans can vote on line if they enter a US zip code.when registering. After the Bristol Palin debacle the rules got tighter for voting on line so I am not sure if the system will allow an IP address to vote outside of US. I guess those who are voting will find out.

WOW they all looking good for 1st week, lets hope nerves dont get to them on the night. I am def agreeing with Tom Bergeron that this could be one of best series for dancer talent.
William looks really good for only 2 weeks of rehearsal. For a minute I thought what is Artem doing dancing with Cheryl? I can only imagine Carrie Ann will be gushing over this boy.
