I must say that Pamela and James are looking good. She seems to pick things up very quickly and is taking it very seriously. It would be great to see one of the older contestants doing well.

I can't wait to see Felicity and Vincent's!

Who do you think shows promise and who do you think has two left feet?

They've all pleasantly surprised me so far, I must say

I'm curious to see how Felicity and Vincent have been getting on as well, and I've heard lots of positive feedback from Flavia about her training sessions with Jimi on Twitter but now I want to see them in action with my own eyes!

Matt and Aliona for me - he looked really good in his training video and Aliona has been really positive about Matt in her tweets even saying that he did their whole routine with music on his own!!!

They certainly are, Jimi looking quite comfortable with the Latin, and equally as imporant, looking comfortable in the company of his pro partner

Ann's is also up.

I reckon quite a few of them are looking promising, hopefully my hopes of a series full of decent dancers aren't in vain.

Jimi definitely did not disapoint! He is probably the best I've seen, he has got some moves and would probably go far in the competition. he did say it himself!

Jimi is looking potentially good at Latin and I thought Pamela looked potentially good at the waltz.

Anne and Anton looked, well, like Ann and Anton

I think there are some logistical problems with Ann and Anton if I am honest. First, she is far too short for him and secondly (bless her) she is a very well endowed lady and it does make it difficult for him to hold her at anything but arms length.

WOW! He is looking great. He seems very comfortable above the way he is moving and his hands look good!

I loved the way you tactfully made your points Star!

I think that because they look like the odd couple, it only adds to the comedy of it all and their appeal

Jimi is looking good.

I wish they'd hurry up with Artem's clip! Why are they keeping him away from me, sorry, us???

Apart from Ann, no one has looked really hopeless yet.

Looking forward to next weekend.

I think Jimi, Matt and Pamela are all looking very promising at the minute, although of course some of those videos were from the very first training sessions!

I also loved Paul & Ola's training vid even though he did seem to be struggling a bit more - he certainly didn't look hopeless though!

Jimi looks fantastic from the waist down, which makes his arm work (which is good) look like it needs to catch up, but he is the best we have seen so far - AND, it looks the most difficult choreography so far.
Could be one of the best first week Cha Cha's ever seen.

Paul looks like he will actually be able to dance, despite never having tried and not even being interested in music. A pairing worth watching to see how things develop.

Patsy looks good, seems to learn quickly and Robin will get a good chance to show what he can do.

Gavin is making it look like hard work, but seems willing to put in the effort. He has a great partner in Katya, but she may have to find a way to produce a break-through moment.

Pamela is another quick learner and seems to be a natural, so it may be a big awakening for her as to how good she can become. James seems well happy and may be able to show some impressive latin routines this year. I expected Pamela to prefer the latin, but her Waltz is progressing very well.

Matt is yet another who is quick to learn, but he looks more like a natural athlete to me than a natural dancer, but he may prove me wrong on that.

Michelle is hyper. Looks like quite a handful and bursting with energy. It all depends on how Brendan can find a way to get her focused and working on all the right things. She might be good - she's definately going to be noticeable.

I forgot about Ann - I mean I'm trying to forget about Ann.

Imo Jimi and Matt look the best. I can't wait to find out what music Jimi is dancing to as his routine looks really good.

I also thought Pamela looked ok as did Scott.

Nobody looked really bad, just Ann didn't look right with Anton, but i'm quite looking forward to seeing her dance.

I really want to see how Kara, Tina and Felicity are getting on now.


ONE WEEK TO GO PEOPLE!

So far Jimi looks the most exciting prospect for me.......

I have watched Michelle's training video and two things come to mind. Poor Brendan and....poor Brendan. I never thought I would say that. She is SO full of herself, I bet she is a nightmare!

She wont last long I dont think.....people wont know who she is and the votes will be so wide spread in the first few weeks she will be vulnerable.......Martina Hingis anyone

Good point! I think Martina was sweet but didn't have the fan base. I don't think the older viewers will have a clue who Michelle is - apart from the one with the loud voice!

Another tiny clip of Jimi and Flavia.

Its looking like they are also going to be entertaining on ITT.

After seeing the ten available training clips Jimi Mistry seems to be the one so far, good hip action and a natural dancer. Pamela Stephenson looks next best, and I suspect Michelle Williams will pull something out of the bag, although her training video was a bit messy and difficult to assess.

Patsy Kensit and Goldie look promising, but not too sure about Matt, Scott and Gavin. Ann W. and Paul Daniels could be taking the early bath. I suspect that fan base will be more important than dancing skill again this year, so Scott, Felicity Kendal, Matt and Kara Tointon should go far if they can put in half decent performances.
