I'm presuming this means everyone gets their original partner?

Looks like one of the best line-ups in years.

They usually have a "spare" dancer for the group dances, Iveta has done this in the past - plus I assume they would also fill in if there was illness/ injury.
Ian Waite has been behind the scenes as well in the past.

Amazed Helen was booted out when she is doing the tour.

Probably means they can "afford" to let Katie and / or Kellie into the final knowing they will not win the final vote.

Cannot see them having a winner that is not touring.

That was probably before the BBC realised how much wonga they can make from filling the arenas.

No wonder Craig had such a cob on when Helen and Georgia where both in the bottom two

Since day 1 of the very first tour back in 2008 the tour has practically been a sell out. I was at the very first show in Glasgow where Matt DA & Flavia won and I desperately wanted to see the show again afterwards. There wasn't a ticket to be had and I had to travel to Manchester for a 2nd visit. Even then the seat was practically on the roof. The tour has always been a huge money maker and that was even without the series winner (Alesha)

The BBC couldn't care less as they don't make money from the tour directly - they only licence the brand to the tour production company. So if 1 person turned up to watch they'd get the same as for a sellout.

This is why I don't get the repeated argument "the winner will be someone going on the tour" because the BBC don't care. Craig might, but that's a different argument...

So happy with this lineup as I really like all of them but especially glad that Jay is on the tour.

That is a VERY impressive line-up! Very surprised Helen is there; I did wonder if Jake might do it due to him taking a break from Eastenders. Add in Jay and Georgia and that is fantastic! Good selection of pro dancers as well - naturally not everyone I'd like but its excellent that everyone has their 'proper' partners which will add to the occasion.

I wasn't keen on going to see the tour this time as I know the judges and Mel will annoy me but with 4 of my favourites I don't think I'll be able to resist this one!

Maybe Kellie has too many commitments with Eastenders?

Considering the FULL line-up was posted above, I'd say no.

Kellie was never likely due to her Eastenders filming commitments, and Katie would have needed a replacement partner as Anton never does the Strictly tour.

She'll be there to partner Kevin in the pro dances as there are only 7 celebs so they'd always need an extra pro to make up numbers for pro routines.

Best line-up the tour's had in years - gutted I can't go!
