Hi everyone,

I never really post here but seen this link on twitter earlier and thought some people on here might like to sign this.
It's a petition to get Anya back as a pro next year

I actually thought she was wonderful and would love to see her back dancing with a celebrity Plus the pro dances with Pasha would be incredible

Would anyone else like to see Anya back?

absolutely - yes

I think that this change petition is pointless for this instance because tptb will decide what they want regardless; Also, it is unnecessary when they are more urgent matters in the world. IMO.

With that being said, I would love to see her back . She could fill Ola's spot. I never understood why they didnt renew her contract in the first place.

Yes i would! She seems lovely and did well with her celeb when she was here.

Absolutely bring her back. I thought she was way ahead of most of the girl pros in terms of teaching and choreography

I can but dream.

I think the reason she is not on the show is her choice she does have a lot of work here and the States think the filming of the show does not fit for her though she does seem to appear on the show for the last few episodes (she did last year too)

Whilst not disliking her, she has had her prime-time exposure and so I'd like a fresh aspiring dancer to be hired and given a chance.

I'd love to see Anya back as a pro, she was my favourite that year and in my opinion she's the best choreographer of all the pros. I didn't expect Patrick to do that well, I think he was lucky to have Anya because she created amazing routines for him.
I never really understood why they didn't bring her back when she did so well

I'd love to have her back, but I'd rather see Jo get a celeb first, and I suspect she will, so I suspect there's only a chance if Kristina decides to leave or one of the female pros gets pregnant before the next series.

Was she on this weekend just gone?

Yes she was in the 2 pro dances at the weekend

Having met Anya last year I know this isn't the reason she's not on the show

YES!
Her charleston with Patrick was one of my all time faves.

I thought I saw her!

Definitely yes BUT with the proviso that it's not at the expense of Joanne. I am another that would like to see Joanne given a chance - we will see if she deserves it at Christmas.

Yes.

I don't think Joanne is in any danger. She's the most competent of the female pros. Strictly is lucky to have her.

I remember Patrick, but even with her photo in front of me I can't remember her at all!

Yes absolutely. She was on Pasha's tour with him this year and she was fantastic.

I can't either.

She was brilliant with Patrick, I was rooting for them. She should absolutely be on the show. She was sweet and quirky and fab
