Colin is rather nice

worried he might get knocked out before the comp properly begins as i have actually no clue who his partner is

i'm so fickle, i think that's the word

Reading through the bio's, Maria is only 27?!?!?! I'm sure I read a magazine with her interview (along with Frankie and Brianne) saying she was at least in the 30's...

Also Interesting, will miss Fred and Mel though

But quite looking forward to this series! Wouldn't Karen Barber's role may aswell just be her usual role of judge/coach? It sounds pretty much the same tbh...

I have a similar problem as Chloe who most people dont know or like is partnered with Michael who I know and love to bits and dont want him out before the actual comp starts properly.

Have been told that everyones of a similar standard this time round though which is good news.

according to the ITV site she is 36

Really I'm not so sure about that??

Well my source is reliable and at the pre show run through with Jayne and Chris on Frid have been told that everyone is doing great.

I love Daniel Whiston, but I can't do with KK at all....

haha, well she must have deaged by 10 years xD

Ohwell, I guess it'll eventually get checked and changed xD

well i will have whatever she is having to deage then lol

Laura Hamilton is a presenter on a satellite TV channel for kids.

So I doubt anyone over 10 will have any idea who she is. If she is a celeb then frankly any of us DS posters might as well apply.

No melanie lambert, this year, I know fred is doing the us version

I know who she is - but then I do have a little person in my house.

Even those who don't know who she is, I think that Colin might win a few votes (bit like Fred I think)

I've heard of her too but for Fun Song Factory on CITV. I refuse to help line Murdoch's pockets by paying a Sky subscription - for him to give to my hard earned cash to footballers!! Murdoch steals from the poor to give to the rich, quite the modern day anti-hero.

Yes, Colin, is very nice.

I'll also be keeping eye out for Sylvain; especially if he decides to dress like this at any point during the competition.

Gutted Fred, Mel, Andrei and Kristina aren't there.

To be fair Kristina hasn't taken part for at least the last two series. I will miss Susie and Andrei, Mel and Fred and especially Pavel!

He will be getting my vote i think Laura could be pretty good

Awww no Andrei

Totally gutted he is not in it this year.. WHY!!!!???????!!!!!!

What's happened to Fred and Mel?

Fred is doing the American versian of DOI, Mel isn't in the contest but has done a pro routine on the show with Fred

Notice that the article on DS front page says Alexandra is a new competing pro, which of course she isn't, also Lukasz has a spot as a competing pro this time although he's been in the show and on tour in the past.

Why is it my two favourite pro's have my least favourite celeb partners? lol Matt Evers & Dan Whiston both got the bad end of the deal from my point of view.

Craig & Maria could be great tho

Kristina was in 2009 series but not 2010.
