Adam Hills (was born without a right foot and wears a prosthetic but that neither stopped Cassidy nor Amy Purdy on DWTS) Adore him.

Dara O 'Briain: both funny and unfeasibly tall

Daniel Mays:https://m.youtube.com/?gl=DE#/watch?v=rz0U1EFoTeY

Nadine Coyle: so the other half watches it with me

Paul Hollywood: I think he could make a suit look good

Joan Collins: she's JOAN COLLINS

Vivienne Westwood: interesting, eccentric, opinionated

Lenora Crichlow: would like to see what she is like IRL

Rupert Graves/Lara Pulver: huge Sherlock fan

John Barrowman: to quote another poster the ringiest ringer that ever rung

Looks good, by the way cheers for your help to me in the other thread. Don't know why other forumites feel the need to sanction me the way they do.

I would love to see Anneka Rice or Annabel Croft do it. Also Justin Lee Collins could be a good bet. Someone like Moira Stewart or Jan Leeming might be good too, As for a soap star how about Danny Dyer?

That we please have a whole Celeb cast with non dance experience.its ridiculous this year,the complete novices just dont have a chance.

It would be so great to see I couldn't believe it when I read recently that both Caroline Flack and Abby Clancy had had many weeks of dance training prior to the show.

That will be because the F1 season continues into November. Never going to get a current driver on the show and a lot of retired drivers still work for the teams in different capacities so are at races most weekends.

Not a Chance. He was getting huge flak for a potential redemptive Comeback on CBB and ended up not doing it. It is a “family show“, they would not risk the bad publicity.
Plus,noone who heard the tape could fall for the “good times“ light-hearted schtick anymore. Although if he had a strict female pro ordering him around, telling him eyes front etc it might be Karma.

Don't take it to heart Paul. Tis just words on a screen love. I know it's hard but don't let others grind you down or make your choices for you: they have the freedom to not click, to ignore your posts, to report, to start their own threads. You have the freedom to start whatever thread you like and the prerogative to change your opinions without fear of censure or condemnation. Keeeeep posting!

Maybe Mario falcone from TOWIE
David Tennant
Martin kemp

Tennant won't ever do it. He's a serious actor dahling and still dreams of cracking the States. But if Strictly is still going two decades from now (unlikely but you never know, soaps and casualty still going) then his place as a silver fox is assured. That, and Whovian conventions will guarantee a pension.

Martin Kemp I would love to see. Read his autobiography a few years back. He would be excellent. He does have epilepsy though, would that rule him out?

Possibly calum best after his contribution in CBBUK in January.

Ian Holloway he always seems funny and he did do a dance in the dressing room the once.

Changed my mind from Mario falcone to kirk norcross who used to be in TOWIE now, love to see another TOWIE star on, Ricky rayment is another possibility.

I'd love to see Alexander Armstrong do it, but sadly he fears The Dahnce to a virtually phobic degree.

Considering it seems as channel 5 is more popular than channel 4 these days, I think a few channel 5 employees would be good for SCD particularly emma crosby and sian Welby.

Very good choices Paul.

Cheers mate. About time Channel 5 employees were recognised a bit more. Yes channel 5 is thrashing channel 4 ATM.

I'd like to see Laura Carmichael on it

The sinnerman from the Chase.

Mika

Robert Carlyle

Shazia Mirza

Funny you should say that as I was thinking out of all of them she is the one perhaps most likely to do it. It would be great if they could nab her for next year

Channel 5 does seem to be the best channel around at the moment Paul.

Joey Essex who used to be on TOWIE
Ron Atkinson
Nikki sanderson
Jessica Jane clement
Adele Silva

Doesn't Lesley Joseph usually do panto? When do pantos usually start rehearsals? Between rehearsing and performances, anyone doing panto probably wouldn't be able to do Strictly as well.

okay here it is:

Mark Phillippoussis ( a Tennis Player from Australia, he would make a great Aliona Partner)

Vicky Pattison, i just like her sense of humour, and i would like to see her dance with Aljaz

David Coulthard, he could be a good comedy duffer or a surprise ( that he might be a good dancer)

Very high on my 'dream contestant' list, he'd be fab.

Michael O'Hare (who? you all cry), up and coming chef, just started getting TV work, very, individual looking and a complete sweetie, lovely man, plus he did ballet up until he was 18 (and really, really doesn't look like it) so he can be next year's ringer

Richard Osman and Harry Styles, now there's a duo you didn't think you'd see any day soon
