They've been given poorer partners because they can't/won't do the tour. The public like to see their favourites on tour with the pro they danced with and so if you're not going to do the tour you're not going to get a favourite to win.
Hadn't thought about that but you are probably right. But surely most of the better dances are going to decline the tour?

I don't think it would be fair to axe Katya, she hasn't had a good partner yet so hasnt been able to show what she can do.

Katya should stay. Remember how she got some sembalance of a personality out of the Gavbot last year. Like to see her get someone really talented
awwww Gavbot I still love him

but back on topic I think the Jordons and Anton and Erin should leave

Anton and Erin- old news
James and Ola- boring
I wouldn't miss Flavia either
Robin- his dancing scares the hell out of me, it's too in your face, he must have shocking in 3D last night!!

Go. Vincent, Erin, Robin, Anton (The new Bruce ?)

Keep. Brendan, Pasha, Artem (the best), James, Ola, Flavia,Natalie, Kristina, Kaya, Aliona

Bring back Matthew, Ian, Lilia and get another male Brit, too many foreigners on the show.

I'd like the following to stay:

Pasha
Artem
Katya
Aliona
James
Ola
Kristina

I'd like the following to go:

Anton
Erin

I'm indifferent to the following but on balance will be fine with them staying:

Vincent
Flavia
Natalie
Brendan
Robin

Finally, I implore the new producer to hunt down, apologise to (for their grave mistake) and sign:

Tristan McManus (auditioned for Strictly in 2010 but didn't get selected; now a pro on DWTS)

I don't like change and like the pros as they are right now but do get that it has to be kept fresh and can't deny that the newest pros haven't been good additions although not all personal favourites of mine.

Couldn't do without : Flavia and Vincent

Would like to be kept : Aliona, Pasha

Borderline : Artem, Brendan, Natalie, James, Ola, Erin

Wouldn't miss : Katya, Kristina, Robin, Anton.

Well Digitalspy have 'Ola, James axed' as one of their thread titles saying in which they might not be here next year. I don't really know if you should bother beliving any of these news threads though.

I never knew that. Somebody rejected Tristan and selected Jared?

An apology is not enough.

For me Pasha can go again straight away. And maybe Anton.

I definitely want to keep Flavia.

All the others are inbetween. Robin should perhaps go dancewise, but he does seem like a really nice guy.

I would like Katya, Artem, Pasha and Aliona to stay. But I also like Natalie and Flavia. The others could go and I would be fine with it. I quite like Ola, but James has been this year and I think they come as a pair.

I believe that was done under the stewardship of Jay HuntSam Donnelly, who also inflicted Alesha Dixon on us

Please correct me if I am wrong

I want Erin to stay. Love watching her, and I think she is one of the best teachers on the show.

Think it may be the end of the Jordan's though. Aliona may find herself headhunted by DWTS

Anton, Erin and James for me. Of course if James goes I imagine we'll also say goodbye to Ola.

Sobeit.

I thought Aliona had already danced for DWTS (the tour show that is). So would they not have hired her from that if they had wanted her? Or maybe it was one of the other Russian pros where this scenario happend?

unfortunatley if that happened it would be bye bye to Erin as well. I don't want Erin to go as she is one of the few who provides a link to the show when it was more concentrated on the dancing

I think all the James/Ola leaving articles are being extrapolated from their exclusion from the tour. Contracts are never discussed this early.

You're right about Aliona - she danced on the DWTS result show and on their pro tour, but never got the call-up to their main show.

I never knew that. Somebody rejected Tristan and selected Jared?

An apology is not enough.
It was Moira Ross. Bizarre decision. Even Conrad Green (the DWTS exec producer) who rarely talks about individual cast members recently commented on Tristan's popularity.

We got Pasha though - for years he'd been hotly tipped to join DWTS but was never signed. But the two of them on Strictly would've been beyond amazing. And it'll be lovely to have an Irish dancer on the show.

Lovely pic of Tristan here:

I know it was only a bit of fun last night but I did notice that Erin could hardly be bothered during the group dance. I think she and Anton should go as they're not, in my opinion adding anything to the show. There are others who could partner older celebs.
James and Ola could go too as he's so rude and confrontational and both their choreography is boring.
