Dani seems to be doing a Waltz.

I think Victoria might be the last CCC (what with the hurt feet), leaving Sid to have the Waltz.

Of course, the fact that the celebs aren't split 7/7 on the first two shows this year could change the number of each dance, assuming the producers want to start and end each show with a cha-cha-cha.

Nicky and Karen's training footage is up - definitely a waltz and it looks like they are doing a lift!

The first guest and celebrity dance? ?

Pasha's pro partner Aliona tweeted thrice last night:
Done teaching Johnny for today...car ride done and straight to a pro rehearsal with Pasha... Looonnngg day!

...have to choreograph and dance a solo dance with Pasha to an amazing performing artist...

...mapped out a sweetly nice routine with Pasha...lots of pretty lifts!... Now time for some food and sleep

The girl who has the most free-form choreo together with the guy who last year had towards most ballroom content (so folk say)... What will happen?

It'll be interesting to see how the judges react because they haven't exactly been consistent in marking down for lifts in the last couple of years.

Pretty sure that Victoria will be doing CCC and Sid will be Waltz, but I may well be wrong.

Thought it was time for one of my daft verses. Hope you are all well.

SCD Launch Show 2012


It’s Series 10 of Strictly,
Doesn’t time quickly fly?
A new set of celebs and dancers,
Lots of glitz to dazzle the eye.

We have Olympians, presenters & actors,
We know them all by name,
All have one thing in common…
Their lives are touched by fame.

Sid, the cheeky chappie,
Michael, the cricket whiz,
Colin, the Hollywood actor,
Bet Kristina will make him fizz!

Johnny, the OAP like me!
Louis, the Olympic star,
Richard from Breakfast TV,
Westlife Nicky-he’ll probably go far!

Jerry Hall with her clever wit,
Kimberly from “Girls Aloud”,
Dani, the “pocket rocket”,
To win they will all have vowed!

Victoria the Olympic champion,
With the world now at her feet.
Denise Van Outen- star of stage,
Her partner waiting to meet.

Jolly Lisa from Emmerdale,
She’ll be a lot of fun,
I believe she’ll surprise us all,
When her dance is done!

Then we come to lovely Fern,
For years our “This Morning” friend,
I miss her “cracking up” with Phil,
Best wishes to them all, I send.

Bruce and Tess are back again,
The judges Craig, Bruno and Len,
With new judge Darcey Bussell
To marks the celebs out of ten!

So here we go on Launch Night,
With all the glitz and glamour,
The fab band and singers all ready,
Round the audience ran a murmur.


Lovely Nat with Michael,
Ola and smiling Sid,
Denise and the happy James…
He jumped up like a kid!!

Richard with Erin, Kimberly and Pash.
Nicky with Karen, the new girl,
Louis & Flavia, Anton with Jerry,
Aliona will give Johnny a twirl!

Victoria with Brendan---was he pleased!!
Kristina with Colin who’s VERY tall.
Vincent & Dani the diminutive duo.
I’m sure they’ll all have a ball!

Robin was thrilled to have Lisa,
You can see the fun at a glance,
They will have a whale of a time,
By golly, that girl can dance!

Our Artem was partnered with lovely Fern,
With smiles their faces were lit!
This is a lovely partnership,
And she can do the splits!!!

The group dance was a bit of a mess!
The pro dance as usual- great!
Can’t wait to see how the partnerships work,
October the 5th is the date!

So the pairings are done for another year,
Can’t wait for Strictly to begin.
The sparkle, the satins and sequins,
And all that glittery bling!

Good luck to all the couples,
Especially Fern and Artem.
You’ll sparkle like the stars you are,
This new team we will call Ferntem!!

Sid and Ola are dancing the Waltz - confirmed by BBC online training clip.
Guess this means Victoria is doing the Cha Cha Cha?

Victoria didn't look natural in the group dance so it will be interesting to see how she gets on with the Cha cha.

I wonder which songs we will be hearing this year, no doubt anything that has been in the charts lately

I heard a bit of a song during Sid's training clip (not Mercy, the song being played over it), but I'm not sure what it was.

I agree, I almost missed it! I will add it to the post of the day thread too as it is fab.

We could have definitely said so if it was still 7/7 split in the first week - but I think with the 6/8 split they may need a seventh Waltz instead of an eighth CCC to make sure they start and end the show with CCC. So we'll have to wait for official confirmation.

I hope she has the Waltz because I think it will be more suited to her as a first dance. I also don't like the idea of a majority of one dance being performed so would prefer at least a 7/8 split.

I just also also hope that in Week 2 they ALL dance the opposite style as opposed to Holly and Rusell last year. I assume Week 2 will still be Foxtrot & Salsa.

Judging by today's training clip it looks like Victoria has the Cha Cha Cha. She doesn't seem to be finding it 'easy' though - aka Bambi on Ice!

This is technically about Week 2 dances, but, does anybody know if it will be following the same format as last year with Foxtrot and Salsa? I'm only asking because Natalie is already teaching Michael the Jive, and Aliona and Johnny were practising the Tango when she injured herself, I believe.
