Well as it's just been posted 1 post above yours that we have no other dances confirmed, how are we supposed to know?!

I would presume mixed, all the girls waltzing and all the guys doing cha cha would make for quite a staid show....

Paul said on twitter today he's done a couple of interviews, just need to figure out where they'll be posted! Jared refused to spill what his and Tina's first dance is, but I don't think Aliona, Katya, Erin or James (the other pros who've tweeted about rehearsals) have been asked...

Up until the series where they started with the separate Girl and Boy weeks.(series 5?). I think we nearly always had the men doing the Cha Cha in week 1 when the ladies did the Waltz (and there really were some stinker Cha Chas delivered....)

I didn't mind that actually as it allowed you to make a better call as to who did the better dance - you could compare all the ladies against each other etc etc....presumably it was because it allowed the blokes inability to lead to be less obvious in a Cha Cha

Unles she's just doing general technique? As if they have got the Waltz, then they've only got a week to learn the Latin. But I wish she would tell, she's been asked but decided not to spill!

I imagine Ann and Anton will be doing the waltz - even on every show!

Series 1 there were 2 dances before an elimination, split waltz & rumba or cha-cha & quickstep. Two of each gender with each pairing.

Series 2 & 3 the women waltzed and the men cha cha'd

Series 4 & 5 were the first split gender weeks, with the men waltzing or cha cha'ing and the women quickstepping or rumba'ing

In series 6 the men either cha cha'd or waltzed, and the women either foxtrotted or salsa'd.

Series 7 all couples started with either a waltz or a tango and a cha cha or a rumba.

I would think it would be a straight 7 waltzs and 7 cha cha

I think a previous poster said something about Matt and hips so that would lead me to think it is the Cha Cha for him making fivr cha chas

Already it looks like we have four men doing th cha cha and if it is a mixture then the remaining two cha chas will be done by women

So based on that I think

Scott and Natalie = Waltz
Peter and Erin = Waltz
Gavin adn Katya = Waltz

Definitely!

For some reason I thought Ann & Anton were also doing the CCC, but I can't remember what made me think that.

This is Aliona it could be the waltz.

But would think it's young men to cha-cha, old duffers to waltz.
