I'm suddenly looking forward to this series a lot more.
LOL.....:D:D
Indeed....looking forward to the series.. :D
Getting more excited everyday....6 more days to pro rehearsals... sure we will start getting more once rehearsals start... can't wait...:eek:
ETA.... its Wednesday now.... so 5 more days left...:eek:
We'll know there's something amiss if the next two males rumoured are Stephen Hawking and Eric Pickles.
Somewhere on the fifth floor of the Mail Online offices, a journalist (a word which I use lightly) is currently hastily re-writing all of their remaining Strictly articles...

Me too, and out of everyone rumoured so far I think she is the one I'll support. I'd like her with anyone bar Anton/James
The problem is as mentioned before there are quite a few rumoured female celebs who are 5ft 9 or over. Sophie and Abbie are 5ft 9. Rebecca Adlington is over 5ft 9 - although I know there's been some doubt cast over her rumour now. So if the producers are taking height into consideration in the pairings - a 5ft 9 or over female celeb would only really match well height wise with Anton, James, Aljaz and Brendan. They might end up doing a few mismatches like they did last year. Personally I hope they give her to either Brendan or Aljaz.
I'm pleased about Sophie by the way although I am surprised she's doing it as I wouldn't have thought that Strictly is her cup of tea.

That's the only issue but I like your style of thinking too, as I think she could do very well with Brendan - they would look good together.
It says Dave, Sophie and Abbey are all confirmed, but categorically says "other names including Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher and Olympic hero Rebecca Adlington are NOT in the running".
So we're back to square one! If Teri's not in, the BBC'll want an international star, but may have to go for somebody like Lynda Carter- a very famous actor, but with a slightly more forgiving schedule.
Rebecca's non-inclusion makes me think they've got a high profile Olympian already.
EDIT-
Does Sophie give anyone else Jodie Kidd vibes? She might struggle at the start but gradually start to produce some really good ballroom?

If Rebecca is not in it was are very low on sporty clebs so we need to cast the rador on retireing sportsbods
Not sure what makes a high profile olympian, a few pages back Beth Twaddle was not thought of as "high" made me wonder how famous you could get in sporting circles. I guess the track and field events get the most coverage
I am disappointed if it's true about Rebecca's non inclusion though. I'm not a swimming fan by any means but she's acheived a lot in her career and done so much for the sport and I always got the impression that it was one of her dreams to appear on Strictly. Shame.

Well what about Tony Jacklin. And Michael Owen had been rumoured. But yes I think its likely we will get another Olympian this year.

Great name.
Still quite early and not much - Sophie recently followed Harry Judd, but that's the closest Strictly connection I've made.

I reckon it could be something like:
Fiona & Robin/Anton (they may give him someone a bit better now Erin's left!)
Teri & Pasha
Sophie & Brendan
Abbey & James
Tony & New Pro (Janette or Emma would work, I guess)
Dave & Kristina

Gutted that Teri's not in.
I personally didn't get the excitement and adulation over her :cool:
