I don't think any of the 3 new males added anything this year. Not getting the Artem thing. Good dancer, yes (best of the 3), but looks?????? Not my cup of tea I'm afraid.

The Beeb tend not to go back (ie. admit they've made a mistake), so it's unlikely we'd see any of the old pros again. However, if the following appeared this year, I might be tempted to keep watching:

Males:

Matt C
Brian
Darren
Ian
Brendan
Anton (for comedy value)
One of Artem/Vincent/James - not really bothered which.

Females:

Kristina
Aliona
Lilia
Flavia
Erin
Natalie (with a 'weaker' partner to see if she has a less competitive side)
One of Ola or Katya - again, not bothered as to which one.

In a complete and utter fantasy world I would have .............

Female:
Lilia
Erin
Flavia
Natalie
Camilla
Karen

Male:
Darren
Anton
Vincent
Ian
Brendan
Mathew

In reality I think it will be the same set that we had last year.

I'm strangely indifferent to the female pro's. As far as the men go, I'd like Matthew, Brian, Ian, Artem, James, Brendan and a newbie.

I found this quite hard keeping it at 14 which I think it needs to be anything else is too long.

Males:

I want Ian back the most I have missed him this year
Matt - is a good dancer but I'm not sure I find him that interesting as a personality and I think the role he's in now as an occasional chereographer and dancer suits him fine that said if he were to return it would be good especially if we get rid of the conflict of interest of him being judged by his former pupil by ditching her from the judging panel. Oh please do it for me beeb pretty please with sugar on top.

Darren I probably want back more for Lilia than himself.

Jared needs to go and I'm fairly indifferent about Robin - he seems a nice guy but didn't do anything to blow me away but he didn't have the best material to work with this year.
Brian could return or not.

Artem has to come back as do Vincent and James

Brendan I think could easily replace any judge but Craig on the judging panel I don't think I'd miss him that much as a dancer or celeb cherographer (although I did love the Time Warp jive this year) and he could still do a bit of pro cheorography and dancing. His fans all say he's not a bad judge in New Zealand and he would still yet a chance to generate publicity by arguing with Craig and Len on a regular basis.

Anton I think should be given something more presenter oriented to do - not necessarily replacing Bruce but perhaps a slot on ITT - I think he's extremely limited as a chereographer and dancer but his well liked as a personality and he could do the odd lovely ballroom dance on the show.

So I suppose I'm looking at (in an ideal world - it won't happen in reality):

Ian
Artem
Vincent
James
Matt
Darren
Robin (I'm feeling generous enough to give him another chance and keep Artem's bud there).

The women is difficult because I'd like Lilia back but I'm also loathe to get rid of anyone else to make way for her and I don't want it to go back to 16 contestants. My first thought was to ditch Ailona at a push - although I feel bad as sometimes her chereography is really interesting and she seems slighly mad but endearing with it rather like Camelia. However I think I'd be tempted to shift Erin onto the judging panel along the Karen and Brendan - I really liked Erin's midweek slots on ITT and I think the chances of her getting another Austin or Colin are pretty slim these days and like Monkseal looking after elderly sportsman has been done by her before. The other alternative to ditch is Katya. I love Natalie's cheorography so I'd retain her or we could have Kristina in Tess's role.

So the women are in my dream world:

Lilia
Flavia
Ola
Natalie
Ailona
Kristina
Katya or Erin

As long as we get Ian Waite back I would happily give up all my other wishes. Although, over the series I have very much warmed up to Robin Windsor as well, in particular after a kind soul directed me to Weather Storm and other Burn the Floor videos, and I realised what a good dancer he is when he is not, let's say, slightly hampered by a celebrity.

With the female dancers I am still missing Nicole Cutler. Would happily swap Aliona for her (not because of Aliona as a person but because I would prefer somebody with more ballroom and less hiphop background).

I'd swap Anton and Jared for Ian and Matthew, and would probably keep the girls the same, though I'd bring back Lilia if I could. (She probably wouldn't go back anyway though)

I think that's what I'd do as well. Might consider swapping Camilla or Lilia for Erin, but happy enough with the females the way they are.

I would think Slavik could give James and Brendan a total run for their money as Bad Boy of Ballroom!

I'd also hope none of the current professional latin couples would turn to Strictly, unless for pro demos of course. Think it'd be a waste of their talents to appear on Strictly seeing how bad it's becoming series upon series and how good they are initially in the world rankings!

I'd like Matt and Nicole back really but otherwise not fussed!
