The 2016 Strictly Professional line up has been revealed including 2 lovely ladies and 1 new gentleman. Plus the return of some of last year's favourites!

What does everybody think of the new line up?

Aljaz & Natalie back = Me happy

I'm a bit upset about Gleb, wasn't him expecting to leave, and the fact that Brendan and Anton are still there, but the three new pros look like they'll be great additions.

Maybe Neil will be a late addition?

Mostly happy with this. All 3 Cliftons back (and hopefully Joanne actually competing this time), and most of the other dancers I really like are there.

And no arrogant, irritating, posing, cringeworthy Gleb!

all three newbies are good dancers Gorka was a competitor now with BTF

personally will not miss Gleb - would bet he refused return because his wife not offered role on show

Must admit, I wondered this as well bendy. But they have a child, so there circumstances are different.

Won't miss Gleb at all, he was so arrogant but brung no personality to the show🤔
Thank god Pashas returning as couldn't deal with him leaving aswell as Tristan😂
Surprised Anton, Brendan and Natalie are back, thought last series might've been their last.

This was the tweet Neil replied to asking why he isn't on with his wife; @CakeGenie I'm in contact with Strictly and there might be opportunities coming up for me. Anyway I'm really happy for @Mrs_katjones

I'm hoping Natalie and Oti get ringers and Kevin gets the dufferest of all duffers.

At the moment they have 14 pros and for the last few years there have been 15 couples, so maybe that means there is one more pro still to be announced.

Excellent I really like Joanne and she has only had one competing series with a celebrity who unfortunately turned out to be very rubbish at dancing, so I would like to see her get someone good this time.

I'm pleased Joanne's getting a second chance. She deserved a better dancer for her first outing and she grew on me on ITT last year.

Only 14 professionals have been announced. Does that mean we will have only 14 celebrities this year instead of the usual 15?

Someone said yesterday there were rumours of a dance troupe being re-introduced this year. Perhaps this is what the further announcements are?

The Cliftons are my favourite pros. They always seem so unpopular with a lot of people on here though.

the bennett's competed whilst on the show for a few years - but a stint on strictly imo would mean Katya and Neil may have to miss the closed at Blackpool and the International
