There is another thread but that's for what kind of celebs pros should get.
What celebs should we/do you want to see on Strictly next year?

Celebrities for 2013?

Jo Joyner - She's quite short, one for Vincent. She's going on a break from EastEnders so she'll have the time.

Just short of 5'7.

Google says that she's 5'8, but I thought she was much taller.
In that case, Frances and Vincent.
I think Rebecca Addlington is already penciled in for next year,Tyger Drew Honey and John Partridge are my other guesses.
I'm not so worried about celebrities- I want some new pro's!
I'd axe Kristina, James and Ola, and keep Aliona on hiatus.
They would be replaced with-
Shem Jacobs- 6'1 Polish dancer who appeared with the ill-fated Dance Troupe in 2010. We need a taller male, and with his background in competitive dance (and DWTS Poland), I think he'd bring some interesting choreography to the show.
Anya Garnis- Pasha's pro partner, and one of the strongest latin dancers I've ever seen. Would be a fantastic addition to the show- I really think one way in which we could copy from DWTS is shipping in more ex-Soviet dancers.
Inna Berlizyeva- Recently retired from dance competitions, Inna is still only 30, and is one of the best ballroom females to come out of Ukraine. Ideal replacement for Kristina (whose choreography has been looking a little stilted recently)
Iveta Lukosiute- Was an absolute revelation this year- I want her back full time in place of Aliona.
That would leave us with a pro-lineup of-
Anton Du Beke & Erin Boag (These are part of the furniture, sadly. Neither will get a contender ever again)
Artem Chigvintsev & Iveta Lukosiute (With the right partners, these could be the last two standing)
Brendan Cole & Natalie Lowe (Two of the best ballroom choreographers- there's no way we can lose them)
Pasha Kovalev & Anya Garnis (Absolute dynamite on SYTCYD- Anya would be a fantasting addition to the line-up)
Robin Windsor & Inna Berlizyeva (I did think of axing Robin, but he is great with a certain type of contestant. Inna is my personal favourite new addition)
Shem Jacobs & Karen Hauer (Would be a great looking pair- I decided to keep Karen to see how she'd fare with a more naturally gifted celeb)
Vincent Simone & Flavia Cacace (The show would be a much poorer place without them)

I mentioned elsewhere that Shane Ritchie has been popping up in the audience and also on the Strictly Shimmy thing - is he a possibility?
Would love him to take part!

Bonnie, or anybody else, has there ever been on series without a present or ex Eastender? I do like Shane though and think he'd be good.

it depends when the break is? its for 6 months but pretty sure she'll be finished before June. so she'll be back filming by the time strictly starts?

She could fit it around her schedule if she's back before the time it starts, like Scott Maslen did.

Wow! that would be an amazing line up.
I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Nina Wadia and Marc Elliot now they've left/are leaving EastEnders.

I don't know these names.
I might change my mind after the Xmas spesh but I vote for Helen Skelton....especially if BP gets cancelled.

Really? I would've thought she was taller. I know 'they' say TV puts about 5lbs on you it must put 5 inches on too
So, if it were up to Digital Spy, this could be next year's line-up:
Jo Joyner
Frances de la Tour
Vanessa White
Rebecca Adlington
Nina Wadia
Helen Skelton
Rosemary Shrager
Tyger Drew Honey
John Partridge
Shane Ritchie
Richard Armitage
Jeremy Irons
Charles Dance
Nigel Havers
Marc Elliott
Tom Fletcher
Fair to say that it's mainly women suggesting names here.
