take this what you will but I was listening to his radio show earlier on heart fm and he said that he was on a strictly and then went errr strict diet

which strikes me as he is doing the show but it could be him making a toungue and cheek remark about the rumours he is taking part

Hehe, hopefully he will be on then, i think he'd be great.

any clues re his pro partner?

I could possibly see him partnered with natalie if he is on the show

i think she's too tall for him - i'd like to see him with katya

I always thought he was tall himself maybe I was wrong I did think katya as well but thought he would get put with natalie

He says he's 5'11

I would put money on him being partnered with Kristina .

I hope this is true and don't really care who is paired with as long as it's not Aliona. I do like her, but didn't like her routines for a good dancer like Matt Baker.

I'd put Aliona with Russell Grant

so would i

I like Aliona too, but find her choreography maybe a little too unconventional for teaching to celebs & it doesn't help when she disregards any unfavourable comments from the judges.

However, I don't think anyone deserves Russell Grant, just as no one deserved Paul Daniels!!
