looks like backstage one's info was spot on and well done you clever FMs for guessing who he/she meant

just 14 pro dancers tho - i wonder how that will work, will the series will be shorter or maybe there won't be an elimination in the first week

gutted about Gleb fantastic dancer and sooooo good looking

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?
Hi fridgesoup! (*waves back*) - yes, only 14. I thought they'd be one down (and would only replace one of the 2 men leaving), as Jo was an extra, but it seems like with 2 down, there will only be 14 celebs, rather than 15.

No Gleb to annoy the living daylights out of Len.


On the other hand, a Spanish one! *sits back and enjoy herself with a glass of sangria*

🤗

It's interesting they haven't (yet??) taken on Neil Jones alongside Katya. You'd think he would be an obvious choice for the newbie male pro, but perhaps he didn't want it



ETA: Just noticed this at the bottom of the Beeb news item:

"More news about our professional dancer line up to come - in the meantime keep up to date with all our Strictly news on Facebook and Twitter"

I wonder if Gleb has chosen to leave because they've not given his wife a pro spot?

Maybe. Perhaps they wanted to be on the same continent some of the time! I wonder if he'll be back on the Russian show (assuming she's still a judge on that)?

Interesting. Curiouser and curiouser.

They don't actually live in Russia, they live mainly in Hong Kong.

The Sun reacts to Gleb's departure with typical moderation

Yes, I realise. I meant that if they were both working on the same show - Russia; wherever - I could see the logic in his decision. Of course they may have something else in the pipeline that means they can all be together.

Apparently Gleb only decided to quit yesterday which may explain the shortage of Pros and why there are apparently still other potential announcements.

So the news is in!

Disappointed Gleb isn't returning though thanks to backstageone I was prepared for that.

Thrilled Aljaz, Joanne and Natalie are back

That's what it says in The Sun (and maybe elsewhere?), but backstageone hinted it was Gleb leaving on here a week ago, so I doubt the decision was only made yesterday.

Gleb did not quit, he was let go weeks ago.

The plan is to have 2 more pros, a girl and a boy. by the way, I used Oskana's last name as a single woman when I wrote the pro's initials.

What?! Why the hell did they let him go?! He's ridiculously popular with viewers. Seems like a massive own goal on the Beeb's part.

Was he let go for the same reason Trent wasn't invited back? (allegedly)

Can you give any info as to why Gleb was let go?!

Will someone not have a partner then, along the lines of Joanne last year?

Is there going to be a troupe too?! Seems madness to do that on top of so many new dancers. And because it's a crap idea anyway!
