What pro dances did they appear in last year please ?
Neil did the choreography for two of the pro group dances last year and his wife danced in a couple too - Neil was the red haired dancer in Kevs quickstep routine at blackpool -

I saw some of their pro routines on YouTube and I really like them! I would love them to be pros on the show. But would they stop their cometitive career to do Strictly?

So Backstage one said a female pro with OD as a initial. Then it must be Oksana Dmytrenko who was a pro on DWTS a few years ago. Right?

That's a good thought! I have been trying to figure the initials for ages!

Yes, could be! She was only ever in the troupe I think, so I don't know much about her. Short and blonde - an Ola 'replacement', perhaps

BiB I really really hope they don't stop competing yet. They're great competitors and still - I believe - have a lot more to give.

Oksana Dmytrenko - Platero is mainly known as a Latin dancer. I'm not sure her ballroom is great. I hope if she joins strictly that someone either takes shears to her long hair or she has it in her contract that it must be tied back, it's a mess.

I remember watching one of Neil's periscopes at the start of this year and him saying he and Katya wouldn't take a pro spot on strictly YET because he felt they weren't ready to stop competing, but they loved working on the show.

I'd definitely like to see them compete as pro's in future but for now I agree with Kaycee.

Things could have changed, but as of last month, Oksana Dmytrenko said this:

"I'm very excited about the next couple of months because I love being busy. Jon [her husband Jon Platero] and I are choreographing a few numbers for Cheryl Burkes' brand new show Love On the Floor. The show is going to Japan first, and I'm sure it's gonna be a great success, and hopefully she'll bring the show to the United States afterwards. Then our group, The Connection, is going to Canada to perform for Sidance Festival, and in the end of June Jon is starting to work on SYTYCD new generation as an All Star. I'm hoping to be able to choreograph on the show this season."

Thanks for the info Elsa

Nothing she says is incompatible with Strictly and 'hoping' to do some choreography on SYTYCD doesn't sound like a firm commitment.

Could be someone else, of course. Any Olgas, Olivias or Oleksandras spring to mind??

I'd like to see Trent back and have his wife Jordanian as a new pro.

I hope Oti is back too

So Gleb is gone

Oksana looks promising, though, as does Katya. Gorka is another Burn The Floor-ite.

Oh, pooh! I'm really going to miss Gleb

Well between us, we guessed the three newbies (with a little help from backstageone )

Five dancers out and only three newbies in. Two yet to be announced or a slightly smaller cast?
