So far there have been 3 celebrities confirmed for series 13 of strictly come dancing 2015 and this is the thread to make your predications of which professionals get which celebrities.

The celebrities confirmed so far are...

Jeremy Vine
Ainsley Harriott
Kellie Bright

These are my predictions atm of who I think each of the celebrities will get as their professional partner...

Jeremy & Janette
Ainsley & Aliona
Kellie & Kevin

Do you agree and if so what are your predictions... I will add more as and when we find out the other celebrities taking part.

Jeremy & Joanne
Ainsley & Karen
Kellie & Kevin

Jeremy and Kristina
Ainsley and Karen
Kellie and Tristan

Ainsley & Karen
Kellie & Pasha

Are you having a laugh with the Jeremy and Janette prediction? Janette is the smallest female pro - she's around 5'1 and Jeremy is 6'3 - so he's over a foot taller. I know the producers have done silly height mismatches before - but this pairing would be completely ridiculous

Your other two pairings sound good though - but I have a feeling that Kevin might get a mature celeb this year, so although in terms of height Kellie is ideal for him, I'm not sure he'll get her.

Jeremy and Natalie (unless Agent Orange is signed up)
Ainsley and Otlile (in my dreams but their latin would be awesome)
Kellie and Giovanni

Ainsley is really Tall i wonder if he would be paired with Natalie ?????

That would be a good pairing. Natalie deserves to not have a duffer this year.

Jeremy & Aliona
Ainsley & Natalie
Kellie & Giovanni

Jeremy and Aliona
Ainsley and Otile
Kellie and Kevin
Georgia and Giovanni

Jeremy & Janette
Ainsley & Aliona
Kellie & Kevin
Georgia & Giovanni

not sure to be honest

would they really pair Aliona with another chef............. she had Gregg last year.........

wouldnt pair Jeremy with Janette either - massive height difference!

Jeremy and Natalie - maybe

I want Kevin to have an older, mature woman - not another youngster

I know the silly producers dressed him up as a chef, but Gregg is a greengrocer not a chef, and he struggles to cook even cauliflower cheese. But I know what you mean, I too wondered if they'd pair Ainsley with Aliona since she had the BBC foodie signing last year.

There is logic to that, in that Jeremy says he really wants to learn to dance and Aliona is someone who can get him as far as he can go, in both Ballroom and Latin.

Otlile is 5' 7" so the second tallest dancer and Ainsley looks like that rarest of creatures, a man who could dance Latin, so a good match for Otlile.

Kevin has had contenders so far, so Kellie may be levelling things out a bit.

Georgia may be a potential finalist and Giovanni is new so that seems to be a reason to the Producer.

The main argument against is if there are no more tall men yet to come and Natalie will be dancing with someone ( maybe this year someone with potential?).

Personality-wise, I don't really know much about Ainsley other than I've seen him, but don't watch him. His Energiser-bunny way of doing things may be the reason. He does seem to have an abundance of things which should mean he does well on Strictly - even at 58 - provided it is tailored just right for the audience.

Jeremy Vine had always come across as dull when I saw him on TV. A short investigation turns up a much more interesting person with a very good attitude to Strictly and a willingness (and keenness) to do what it takes. He also is a good talker. He is going to need someone who can get the most out of him.

Georgia said she wanted someone who could push her - which is a plus tick in my book. She seems likeable, but may need to be more memorable on the show.

I haven't seen an interview with Kellie yet.

I think Ainsley will get Natalie, I don't think they'd pair two black people together in fear of the PC brigade so that'd rule out Ainsley and Otille.

At the minute I'm saying:

Jeremy and Joanne
Ainsley and Natalie
Kellie and Tristan
Georgia and Gleb

I'll predict pairings will be...

Jeremy & Karen
Ainsley & Natalie
Kellie & Pasha
Georgie & Giovanni

I think it's hard to do the predictions while there's not a full line up. I do think producers take into account what sort of partners the pros have had in the last few years. Kevin has been in the final two series running - so I wouldn't be surprised if he's rested this series with either a mid run or early exit celeb.

I'll also be very surprised if Pasha gets someone who looks like a ringer/contender.

I think Kellie and Kevin is a fair prediction because apparently she's only 5'1 and as far as I'm aware the two new male pros are fairly tall? But depends on the height of the rest of the female celebs. As a few people have said, difficult to predict without full lineup

Preliminary Predictions for now

Guys
Ainsley + Natalie
Jeremy + Karen
Girls
Georgia + Giovanni
Kellie + Kevin
Katie + Pasha

Otlile isn't that tall, she tweeted her height as 1.55m which is 5' 1".

Edited to add Katie. I'm sure they'll go for a Kellie and Kevin pairing, but I can dream anyway.

Ooh, I don't see Katie with Kevin at all!

I think she could be great in the ballroom dances (poised and elegant) and decent enough in the Latin, if a little 'polite'. She's also a reasonable height (5'6 or 5'7 I think), so she might be a good match for Aljaz. I wouldn't be surprised if the producers put her with Brendan, but hope not...

She thinks she is 5' 7" in this advert.

Hmm, well a couple of days ago she tweeted she was around 5'2".

Lol! She tweeted 155cm (just over 5'1) But I don't think she's right! Her profile for the German version of the show doesn't give her height but she was partnered with a celeb who, the internet tells me, is 171cm (just over 5'7) and they performed a contemporary in bare feet and she looks only a little shorter. Also her boyfriend/professional partner was listed at 180cm (about 5'11) and she doesn't look 10" shorter than him .

I think she's about 5' 5 or 5'6 .
