Spoilers are emerging for the partnerships on DwtS (see the sub-forum for the list). Nothing so far for Artem but possible rumoured celebs still left include:

Lea Thompson (age 53) a film actress who was thingy's mother (as a girl) in Back to the Future. She trained as a professional ballet dancer in her youth.

Andi Dorfman who comes from reality TV (won the Bachelorette series or something). She's 29 and when her name crops up on certain forums its often accompanied by 'whiny'.

Sadie Robertson also from reality TV, the grand-daughter of some bloke who's made money selling stuff to duck hunters and made contraversial anti-gay remarks. She's 17 and I liked this accolade in her wiki entry: Robertson currently attends Ouachita Christian Academy in Monroe, Louisiana. In 2013, she ranked sixth in the state of Louisiana for javelin throwing

Hard to say who I would prefer....



Oh, and there were some rumours of a gymnast called Kacy and the outside chance of Shania Twain...

Seems, looking at the couples spoilered so far, he may have dodged one of the obvious bullets. Phew.

Hi Fridgy,

I've been following this too.

I've been hoping for Kacy the Ninja girl, but who knows..........

I'm not sure about Lea Thompson as I'd hoped he'd get someone younger, although she has ballet training. Shades of Fiona Fullerton?

If he was going to get an 'older lady' I think I'd rather he'd stayed in UK and danced with Judy (she probably does too!!!)
Oh well, at least he's not got the cartwheeling 70+ year old - she looks a bit bonkers!

I'm not sure about the 17 year old....................... or the Bachelorette, whoever she is.

BIB. I was thinking more Jennifer Grey . It's hard to say (not really knowing any of them), but I wouldn't mind Lea. She seems to attract the 'America's sweetheart' sort of tag and she's still working on stage and screen unlike Fiona! The Ninja ]would be a good one. The bachelorette woman strikes me as a poison chalice .....

(I'd have loved Artem to have got Judy )

I'd forgotten about Jennifer Grey winning. Maybe the American public are more inclined to vote for older celebs ..... or was it because she danced with Derek?

What a relief there's no Bachelorette. From what I can see Lea is not a bad partner. I'd have been gobsmacked if he'd got an obvious contender first time round.

apparently she has been filmed doing ballet - on Youtube somewhere! and looks pretty good. Maybe not a winner, but could go quite a few weeks!

He won't be happy with that pairing I'm sure . but ..I agree could go a few weeks and get noticed.. Shades of Fern ? .Readv somewhere he could have stayed "home"-and got Judy Murray':
Wonder if he will achieve the following stateside he has enjoyed here.
New beginnings for him and SCD awaits.. Do we use this thread to comment on the new season SCD or just Artem i on DWTS ..and Kara's work in uk

Well, I'm sold on Lea Thompson:

She actually WAS a ballet dancer before she started acting.

She has feelgood factor from the Back to the Future films. I'd forgotten about that series she was in called Caroline in the City - I really liked that when it was on.

She seems very in shape and toned.

She tweets.

But most of all because she has a cat called Stinkey Pete! There are pics on her instagram - and she has also photoshopped him into Old Masters!!!!!!!!

I guess if there's a couple who capture the imagination, I'd post on their thread too, but I like talking to the people from this thread about the show in general, so I'd say 'yes' to all three!

I think it will work out okay, too. Artem must know they operate differently on DwtS so I doubt he was expecting a hot, young fittie. Instead he got the lady-of-a-certain-age fittie.

BIB Great cat name .

What little I've read makes me think she has a sense of humour. Plus she's played Sally Bowles on Broadway. That's always a good thing .

She has great legs.


Lea as Sally Bowles. (I don't know if this was made at the time she was in Cabaret in the late '90s or later on)

To my surprise I actually know who she is .
As a hubilada i watch quite a few afternoon movies and she is frequently seen in movies made for tv .
There is a link to an interview by her on the Artem thread courtesy of silversandy

Sounds nice and grounded and .....as she is happily married we won't have the press inventing a love interest .
Will go with the"all three,,"as I like speaking to every one on here too .

Hi Soupy and DQ, I'll certainly be hanging around in here.

I don't have a favourite so far in the line up, but that can always change once they start dancing. I'm afraid I didn't know many of them, but that's never really bothered me. I didn't know Alesha or Kara before they became my favourites.

I hope I can figure out the red button thingy better this year!!! Will it clash with Bake off?

It will be on a 'loop' Wrenny, so yes, it will clash, but you can watch it later as it's on the loop for 7 1/2 hours!

Hello! Are you ready for the launch tonight? I don't know who half the cast are so definitely tuning in. Alas it will not be the same without Arty but the show must go on and as some of you have highlighted Thom Evans...hope he can move!

Thanks for all the news about DWTS. I am just back from holidays so have been out of the loop. Lea looks like she has real potential...did we discover how to view the show?

Congratulations to Kara on completing the Great North Run.

Hope some of you will be posting...Strictly would not be the same without you!

Hi Anam. Have definitely missed our Arty tonight but laughed at the antics of Anton and Brendan. I wonder who he would've been paired with? Thought Judy was nervous and, surprisingly, Jake. Thom is handsome!
