Just seen an Advert for this show, another 'celebrity does something they dont normally do just to get on TV' show.

Tom Daley will teach celebrities to do dives, sounds awful to me, but got me to thinking who do we think will be on it?

I will have to take a punt that Joe Swash will be chomping at the bit to be on it, any others?

    Who's presenting - Philip Schofield ?

    The celebrity lineup for Itv1's new tom daley diving show Splash is terrible:

    Jade Ewen
    Donna Air
    Adele Silva
    Zoe Tyler
    Helen Lederer
    Jenni Falconer

    Jake Canuso
    Leandro Penna
    Kenzie
    Joey Essex
    Eddie Edwards
    Omid Djalili

    This was a hit in Holland but Im now certain it's not gonna be one here. In order for a show to have a chance of becoming a hit, a good amount of effort and money had to go into getting a decent set of celebrities. Clearly Itv arent putting in that kind of effort here, hardly any of these lot are well known. In the lineup where's the politicians which would get the broadsheets talking, the fatter celebs for joke value, the good looking young celebs that magazines and tabloids would drool over? Nothings there to make it interesting or to create a buzz. A shame that after spending money on actually acquiring this format from Mipcom, Itv has just killed off the show with such a bad lineup. I revise my predction down to 3.5million.

    Really makes you salivate with that lineup eh !!!

    Omid Djalili must have a big tax bill to pay !

    Wonder what the ratings were for the Olympic diving?
    Aside from Tom Daley cannot imagine they set the world on fire.

    Beach Volleyball would have been a better punt IMHO.
    I certainly watched a lot of that !!

    A Celeb version would definitely be popular - but maybe indoors so they don't have to wear the cold weather sweat suits.

    For the diving (the individuals i believe), i think it had a total peak of 15m across three channels.

    no probs :)

    just to clarify that the list of contestants posted as fact in the ratings thread was lifted from my post here


    http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showpost.php?p=63209539&postcount=32



    and isn't a confirmed list, it's my guess according to tweets :)

    Jake Canuso (is sn actor who plays Mateo in Benidorm and is an ex dancer who was in a lot of music vids in the 80s/90s and was a backing dancer for the Spice Girls ) he' looks good in speedos :D

    If they have any replays of the dives, will they be labelled as "splashbacks" :D

    I thought she was working in a shop in the US after failing to crack Hollywood. She is awful....

    But I shall be giving it a look just to see Tom and to see Omid belly flopping.

    This is going to be awful. How many times can you watch them dive into the pool. It will flop after the first show. Superstars was poor too.

    No doubt they will wear huge unflattering costumes they would not be seen dead wearing in real life.

    If Tom really wants that Olympic gold then shouldn't he be focussing on training for that instead of his TV career. :confused:
