Russell Grant(5ft 6)...............Aliona Vilani


Holly Valance (5ft 8)............Brendan Cole
Chelsea Heeley (5ft 5).........Pasha Kovalev
Edwina Currie (5ft 5)...........Artem Chingvintsev
Nancy Dell'olio(5ft 5)............Robin Windsor
Alex Jones (5ft 7).................James Jordan
Anita Dobson(5ft 2)..............Vincent Simone
Lulu (5ft 2)...........................Anton DuBeke”

I think Ricky Hatton is a possibility too. After all the rumors and also Gregg Wallace.

Or maybe room for two more soap stars.

Well they have been trying to attract a younger audience for ages so this seems a good attempt as any to try and draw them in Wasn't that one of the reasons they made Aleesha a judge - wrongly IMO!

Lulu- Still harps on about 60s and is full of herself. Will probably be good though.

Harry Judd- Good signing but with this line up he is guaranteed top 2 at least. No other contenders.

Jason Donovan- I like Jason but am sure he is on tour with musical so commitment may be lacking.

Holly Valance- She could well be good but pretty girls are always at a disadvantage on SCD.

Dan Lobb- Nice surprise, my mum is a fan!

Chelsea Healey- Never heard of her but at least she is under 50.

Rory Bremner- I like Rory, and he is not a typical SCD celeb, which is good.

Anita Dobson- Eugh. She hasn't been on the telly for 20 odd years. Poor.

Nancy- Eugh Eugh. Vain and dull, she will add very little.

Russel Grant- Yuck. I do not like this man and he is a reality TV whore.

Edwina Currie- Is the best they can do? She has little humour or humility.

Alex Jones- Alright. Her voice grates on me and she lacks personality.

Audley Harrison- I don't know much about him but he could be good.

with the line up being announced on Tuesday and two more males needed we'll probably get Vince Morse and Jamie East. :yawn:

Audley hasn't been confirmed - the report states that he is a possible - I don't think it is him, I think it is Iwan Thomas

not impressed tbh but we shall see what they can do on the dance floor!

Am i the only one here who thinks this is a really good lineup with a mix of personalities and people

I'm 17 and i can't wait to see Harry, Holly, Chelsee and Lulu, people are saying Jason Donovan might not be able to dance but he was in Priscilla Queen of the Desert, does that not involve dance?

I also think Iwan Thomas may be one of the unamed male stars as he tweeted a week or so ago about a challenge and he tagged Austin, Gethin and Robbie Savage in the tweet

IMO this series could well be as good or better than last years, think we could have a real competition on our hands

Edwina Currie may go down an Esther Rantzen style route of not being bad but being a bid stateley.

I think Iwan will get Erin - and Jason I think can dance. Will PM you in a min jack

I don't think that Neil McDermott would get it after the recent tabloid scandal.

Still probably would be a former/current EE star though.

If current - there's only really the Moon brothers and Jamie Borthwick
If former - they'dve most likely had their exit from 2000 onwards I think

Looking at the rumoured line up, I think they are trying to replicate last year in the celeb demographic - we only had one 20 something male last year, a couple of females, and 3 more mature ladies. Wasn't excited by the line-up last year before the start, but actually enjoyed the season much more than the previous two years, becuase the mix really worked out well to me - I never can tell beforehand! Not bothered whether I know the celebs or not - enjoy getting to know them over the show. Still hoping rather in vain for Robbie Savage, and very happy if Jason Donovan and Anita Dobson are in there. The 80s was my soap era!

I think it's quite a good lineup, but pretty predictable. Harry's going to win, yes?

If Chelsee is anything like her character on Waterloo Road, we should be in for a treat!

Don't underestimate Jason Donovan and if he is confirmed Iwan Thomas

Am I the only one that thought Harry was a little bit rubbish on the CiN thing?

I think Holly could win.

Oh, it appears the line-up, if accurate, is quite good this time round.

As with that impressionist guy, I hope we don't get a Jan I-Hope-You-Are-Happy Ravens fiasco again. Impressionists have a lot of complexes that way...”

Lol. It is quite astounding how these "comedienne" type display a complete lack of humour in these things. Ronnie Ancona looked like she was sucking a lemon on the Xmas special.

If you have a look at her in the video for kiss kiss she looks a bit stiff

I agree Jack There are some really good names in the mix. The only two I don't like are Russell and Edwina.
I think all the others will bring personality or ability or humour to the show

No you're not.

Edit: Mind you they don't get much training, and Kara didn't look fantastic when she did sport relief.

Mine too! I think I shall support Jason and Anita for this very reason! Still surprised Anita is doing it as she always said she never would. Think the producers want lots of shots of Brian May in the audience though, so I imagine he'll take Billy Connolly's seat from last year!

Yay!! Now I am really getting in the Strictly 'mood' - this line up, on the face of it, looks pretty good, IMO

A few 'personalities' me thinks. (Although I enjoyed last year, to be honest I found it a bit bland). Looking forward to Harry from McFly - hope he is teamed up with Ola!

Dan Lobb! I secretly have a thing for him

Except if he is 6ft 6 as said by someone earlier and gets Natalie I'll be very disappointed- she grates on me.

I am finding it really hard to warm to Natalie - first time on ITT and she put me off when she started asking if anyone had got 10s on their first show

Mind you I loved Camilla - really miss her

I think this is a pretty good summary! I'm looking forward to Strictly - sometimes this sort of line up can be better than the more 'well knowns'
