Miranda was on 'Fern' talking about the idea of doing it recently, and she said she would be interested and that she'd like to dance with Ian (and, given her height, probably wouldn't have a choice!).

Wouldn't mind any of them on the show
All could do quite well on the show

Miranda would be interesting to see - she did Celebrity Fame Academy before she really hit big (2007 or so) and she came across quite poorly. Not in an unpleasant sort of way : just timid and embarassed and not really into it. Obviously she'll be much more used to being in the limelight now, but I know a lot of comedians come across as being awkward "being themselves" on this sort of show.

Oh yes ~ me and Mr Bearbear still cringe when we recall her very self-conscious rendition of 'Physical'

I've a feeling we could be getting Joan Collins, as she has admitted it's the only show she'd ever consider doing, Zandra Rhodes (who said she'd do it this year) and Katie Piper.

Thats interesting Joan Collins did Pantomime in Birmingham last December/January so obviously up for anything.

Who is Katie Piper? Is she 'famous'?

No, she got acid thrown in her face and milked it for fame.

That's a very, very cruel thing to say.

She was an up and coming TV presenter who got viciously attacked by her ex-boyfriend and had acid thrown at her face. She now runs a charity helping people with facial disfigurementst to live normal lives.

you should be ashamed of yourself saying that , katie piper has undergone over sixty operations suffered pain and despair beyond anything most people could even cope with. what would you rather she do , go crawl into a hole.

You disgust me, she's inspired more people than you've ever even met.

That's an utterly disgusting thing to say, honestly I have no words, one of the worst things I've ever seen on DS

That really is a terrible thing to say! Very cruel, she's actually a really inspirational person.

And on a happier note, is Joan Collins a possibility or was it just a joke and has she never said she'd do SCD

i've had a feeling for a couple of years that Joan Collins would do it and maybe Liz Hurley too

That's such a nasty thing to say, she was wrongfully and viciously attacked, and she didn't 'milk it for fame', she set up a charity wanting to help people with facial disfigurements to lead happier lives.

you couldn't even imagine the pain she would be going through at that time! she was absolutely beautiful and had everything going for her! and it all got took away within a second!

She said she'd do Strictly!

She isn't fussy anymore- she did panto in Birmingham and that "Joan helps the Fashionably challenged" a few years back.

I've seen her up close in a supermarket in France and she looks amazing for her age.

What a horrible thing to say.


I would really like Joan Collins to do the show!

I have a feeling we may be seeing Jodie Prenger taking part- possibly with Anton.

I think she would be hilarious - and she could get James - it would be good to see a lighter side to James, we have seen a protective side - he Jodie would be funny

If Joan Collins is doing it - she will get Anton

Joan is very likely- she's not fussy by any means anymore. She did that show where she took women round Primark, she was in the last series of Footballer's Wives and wants to be appear on Benidorm!

The comments between her and Craig would be funny - Craig would love her.

Still think we will get Sian Williams, so she could get Vincent
If it is true about Joan and Jodie - Joan with Anton and Jodie with James.

I would reckon Sam Womack from EastEnders is a poss - maybe she could be with Brendan, and there is the rumour of Chris Tarrant wanting a crack at it

There was a tiny sideline in one of the papers the other day that Rupert Everett has been asked but I can't seem to find it on Google. Did anyone else see this?

i didn't - and of course we get about three sportstars - there wont be any athletes with 2012 imminent - well if there are it is likely to be a retired one

Last year we had rugby (gavin henson)
football (peter shilton)
ex gymnast (matt baker)

I reckon it could be cricket, snooker and retured athlete this year
