    Does Dave tick one of the hunk boxes?

    I always think he looks a bit like a startled ventriloquist puppet but there's probably a market out there for him. Aliona, Ola or Janette would be my choice for him (he's not very tall, really, and made renowned Lilliputian Heidi Range look reasonably average sized when stood nest to him)

    Haha! He's not bad looking so I'd imagine he could be the producers next hunk :D
    I think he could be average size as he looks around the same height as Lisa Snowden who is tallish for a woman.

    I assume Greg has said no if Dave is in?

    Last year they definitely had replacements, it seems they get a list of professions that they want that series and then go with that.

    David Harewood said no, assuming he was replaced by Patrick
    Michelle Keegan said no, replaced by Gumede?
    Paul Hollywood said no, replaced by Dave
    Sian Williams said no, replaced by Susanna
    Mel C said no, replaced by Sophie?
    Teri Hatcher said no, replaced by Fiona?

    Yeah, I'd go with that.

    So if Caroline Flack says no, I imagine we'll get a reasonably attractive TV presenter, if Ross Kemp says no we'll get another EastEnders chap. That sort of thing.

    Mark Wright, 27
    Ross Kemp, 49
    Greg James, 28
    Alan Hansen, 59
    Joe McElderry, 23
    Dave Berry, 35

    I would rule out Joe and Danniella. And I would gather Greg OR Dave but you never know, the producers may want a radio battle :p

    Ross Kemp isn't a genuine rumour, I don't think. Wasn't his name just on some journalist's wish list?

    I'm sure I read something last year that said Dave Berry would never do Strictly because he was scared his package wouldn't fit into the lycra. :p

    :D I was only stirring - although I think they would surprise a few people, if they managed to stay in a few weeks. They're not as annoying as is sometimes show & they're quite competitive and sporty. Perhaps a few years yet - after they've done I'm A Celebrity. :p

    The Sun have said Thom Evans has signed up, so I guess we can count him as very likely.

    Apparently it's the second year in a row he was offered it (which ties in with Ben Cohen signing up as a replacement) but he's got enough free time this Autumn to commit.

    Looks like we're heading for a Year of the Man!

    Here's a link:

    Ooooh yes, I like this rumour alot! Only heard of him through Kelly but he looks very nice. I wonder if he can dance as well as Kelly?
    You could be right 21stCenturyBoy, it could be the year of the man and as much as I like the sound of that I would prefer it to be even. I am always saying we need more decent contenders in the male line-up though so i'm not complaining.......yet ;-)

    Yip, I can see both of these names taking part. I wouldn't mind Charlotte actually. I think she could be pretty good and an interesting character.

    The rumours seem to be picking up pace at last, then.

    Judging by... certain photo shoots, I'm sure Thom would make Ben look like a shy wallflower if he were to do the show.

    Is it the photograph that very nearly has your eye out?

    Bruno will need a good hosing down after ever Thom Latin number. Now let's put him with Ola and we can essentially create Dancing With The Stars Argentina (don't make me link that) for a primetime BBC audience.

    Duncan Bannatyne has quit Dragon's Den.

    I wonder if he might be in (see what I did there?)

    Hmm. I doubt they'd have two Dragons in a row, and his health hasn't been in the best nick as of late, so I think we'll have to leave it at that one Comic/Sport Relief special he did (and judging by said special... thank god!)

    Oh I didn't know that. I doubt they'll sign him, then. The last thing they need is another Jimmy Tarbuck/ exploding heart situation.
