Everyone welcome to come in and have a chat about what I hope is a dynamic pairing this year!

You got in just ahead of me. Great minds think alike!!

JJ

He's the celeb that's got me excited about this years SCD, I was considering not watching. He will forever be Vince from Queer As Folk in my eyes. I can't wait to see them.

Good Luck Craig and Flav

I think they will be great together, Craig might not have any dance experience but Flav's a great teacher and he looks keen to learn so I can't wait to see what they can do

Great thread Dilly

Hope Flavia does well with her new partner this year, looking forward to seeing her dancing again

I really like Craig so will be excited to see what Flavia can do with him.

I was never a fan of MDA (ducks for cover! ) and tbh, that put me off Flav a bit - but I can see myself supporting her and Craig this year!

Craig was my late teens crush when he was in The Young Americans so I'm overly excited to see him on Strictly!!

Go Flav and Craig

*chucks rotten fruit*

Welcome to a new series then...nice to see you supporting Flav

GOOD LUCK FLAV AND CRAIG......................... really really excited now

Oh, i'm so pleased now.

I dont really know Craig as I dont watch Corrie (yet)...but I'm excited to see people appear to like him enough to come in and show some support for him and Flav.

You'll probably recognise his voice as he does voiceovers for just about everything.

He was in Casualty many many years ago too.

And has been in Hotel Babylon... Think thats where the voiceover comes from...

Great new thread Dilly.... Another new home for us...

Shall we decorate it with pink and fluffiness... or shall we save that for just the Flav thread...

Craig... if you read this - take good care of our 'Flav' she is a good'un and you couldnt have got better....!!

Can't wait to see them in action...but I will have to.

GOOD LUCK Flavia & Craig

I vaguely remember him from Queer As Folk, but that was years ago... He was the quietish guy wasn't he? Its starting to come back to me now...

I've just been reading on the BBC site that he did the voiceover on Shiprwrecked, I do recognise his voice I feel like I recognise it from somewhere else too though, will have to go and look him up on imdb

That's him. I have the boxset which has commentaries for each episode and he was so different, really chatty so I think people will warm to him.

We should maybe save the 'fluffiness' for in Flavs just...some guys dont like the 'fluff'.

I've loved Craig since his Queer As Folk days. I hope he does well. I was so happy when I saw this.

I'm also supporting Brian and Ali and I'm sure once the show starts I'll be rooting for a few more.

Ahh, I'm a fan already. I'm a bit of a pushover really, and was always going to like whoever Flavia was partnered with...but I genuinelly do like the look and sound of Craig.

Here's his imdb page. I totally forgot he was in Titanic!

He comes acorss as very nice and down to earth on the little video on the SCD site and doesn't look lke he'll take him self too seriously either which I think is key for Strictly

I think they will be a really great pairing Can't wait for the first night now

I'm delighted Flavia got him.. I just hope he can dance a bit....Eeeeek!! He sounds lovely and has been in a lot by the looks of things.

I'm a new Coronation St fan too.... Whens it on??

Not sure, I never usually watch it, I think I may be tunning in now though
