Thought I would set this up and see if we can keep ideas,opinions, thoughts, suggestions for dances, music, celebs, pros, judges, band, singers, wardrobe, staging, etc etc in one place. Set up before final is over so it is there ready for when folk tire of the postmortem

I will go first with a celeb idea,
Lorraine Chase as the older lady celeb

Ruth Langsford.
Nick Grimshaw.
Harry Hill.
Another one of the Saturdays.
Connie Fisher.
An X MP from the election.
Jemma Coleman after leaving Doctor Who.

Marion Keys

Suzy Perry

Suzy wants to do it but too busy with F1

Classic hollywood theme week where everyone does a Fred & Ginger style routine.

Darcey Bussell dancing the Rhumba with Pasha

Replunder BBC Breakfast. Steph McGovern has previous doing Irish dancing so can be labelled a ringer. Ore Oduba did Dance for Comic Relief in 2010. Sally Nugent or Naga Munchetty would be pleasant to watch.

(we can use this as the annual rumour thread through the next year, right?)

Sure

As usual, a mix of who I'd like and who I think:

Graeme Swann - England Cricketer
Tyger Drew-Honey - Actor
Paul Ince - Retired Footballer
Siva Kaneswaran - The Wanted Singer
Gyles Brandreth - Ex-Tory MP & Writer (all-round babe)
Dave Berry - TV Presenter & DJ (really liked this rumour, shame it didn't come true)
Sam Torrance - Professional Golfer

Lynda Gray - Dallas Diva I can lose my s**t over
Helen Skelton - TV Presenter and queen of my heart
Michelle Keegan - I think this is pretty inevitable, really.
Mel C - Singer (I've seen her on three talking head show today - she's more than ready)
Louise Hazel - Olympic Heptathlete
Tamara Ecclestone - Socialite (and token aggressor for the "but she's not even famous" crowd)
Ruth Langsford - TV Presenter, who really has dropped enough hints.
Kelly Hoppen - Dragon.

Forever going to push a Rugby League player for a celeb. It's hard to pick though as the season ends at the beginning of Strictly. I think........ I'm gonna keep saying Jamie Peacock. Maybe Mike Stephenson the commentator if people want to laugh.
